Lost in the justifiable commotion of Morris's sexist comments post-game was the fact that Jae Crowder pulled an all-time **** move and stole an inbounds pass as time was winding down and took a three for pretty much no good reason but to be a jerk and ignited a brawl

Crowder's action didn't start the brawl. Payton's response to his ridiculous action started the brawl.

It's a wash because that entire sequence was just stupid people doing stupid thing compounded by the Knicks being the Knicks.

Sixers 9-16 on the road but 22-2 at home....that road record won't cut it if they want to advance deep in the postseason

All that time around Silicon Valley, Draymond's trying to think outside the box. Disrupt the inbounds pass.

Jae Crowder displayed poor sportsmanship, but I'm somebody who doesn't have a whole lot of use for sportsmanship out of professionals. The only "soft" person in this whole exchange is Payton, who played thirty-five minutes, but waited until the final seconds to decide to show any pride.

I take that back: Morris definitely displayed some softness in the head area.

Pretty absurd record there so talented that need one more wing shooter and if they have Holford become the 6th man watch out.

what was it I believe the tweet was taken down

Darn.

The text was something like:

Guy on Twitter: Oh please. I can make the shots the millionaire athletes make.

Same guy on the court:

(A gif of some guy obviously trying to make one of those half-court win-something shots and falling flat on his face before he got to shot the ball.)

It was kinda mean, but it was still funny. (I'm shallow that way.)

"Fans like that shouldn’t be able to lay any hands on you and shouldn’t be a part of our game.”

In all fairness, Kyrie, maybe it was instinct after you sprawled all over him...

Perk out here straight making things up

I was not ready for that ending with him getting literally dragged off the floor.

4 second-round picks and one undrafted player started for the Nuggets last night. They won against Utah Jazz.

To be fair, one of those second rounders was Jokic

Can you imagine how good they would be if they have all 2nd rounders the Kings have?

 

[HebrewHammer]

I'd say that makes it more impressive (finding Jokic in the 2nd round) than less impressive.

Torre Craig is the master of blocking elite athletic PG's he's crushed the shots of Westbrook/Mitchell/Lillard non-stop never seen a wing do that on a regular basis as when he gets playing time.

Crowder's action didn't start the brawl. Payton's response to his ridiculous action started the brawl.

Also why is Payton mad he's made a living of putting up empty stats in the 4th.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I feel like the lakers are either going to annihilate, or get annihilated by, Portland tonight. No in between.

 

[SLAB]

Wenyen Gabriel is starting for Portland?

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Suns just got jobbed, trying to pull off the "De'Aaron Fox play."

Not particularly sympathetic, though: Phoenix led 99-92, with 4:22 to go, and then gave up a 13-0 run.

Kuzma is a scrub with no IQ

 

[Tetsujin]

Trevor Ariza has five steals and at least a dozen exasperated scowls through the half.

 

[steelevt]

Dame is a baaaad man

 

[rosa u podne]

Denver did it again. They won against Bucks on the road on the second night on B2B. The starting lineup of 4 2nd round picks + 1 undrafted FA, and all four bench players scored in double digits. They are hit hard with injuries of 3 starters and 6th man. Jokic was one assist shy of triple-double. They finished the game without MPJ, who hurt the ankle. Impressive!

 

[LoungeLizard]

Mark Jackson just went on a mini rant singing the praises of Caleb Swannigan...described him as a “winning player”

 

[steelevt]

I’m glad we never signed Hezonja
