THEY GAVE THE KINGS A STANDING OVATION FOR SCORING THEIR FIRST POINT!

 

[parker]

Apparently, believe it or not, internet sleuthing showed 2 points---2 whole points--is the fewest points scored by a team in a quarter. And this wasn't done in the 1950s or anything but happened once in 1997 (Dallas) and again in 2004 (Warriors).

Shai getting superstar calls while De’Aaron could bleed and not get a whistle.

This is almost as bad a buzzer beater attempt as that terrible Richaun three we had a couple of games ago

 

[iowamcnabb]

Dejounte Murray with 8 steals against the Wario's. 11 is the single game record. Well done Mr. Murray

 

[Tetsujin]

on the plus side for Dallas, they won. On the minus side, they almost lost to the T-wolves who don’t have KAT because of COVID, only played Russell five minutes and are pretty much the worst team in the league.

I hope the Wolves suck enough and get lucky enough to land in that top three and prevent the Wario's from adding a Cade or Kuminga to their squad.

Edit- Of course then the Wolves will somehow be worse next year and Golden State will end up with Emoni Bates

 

[Tetsujin]

Also the way the Nuggets are playing this season, Malone may legitimately end up getting canned this offseason.

The Warriors PbP of this is even better

Draymond attempted a game-tying shot from near half court and missed.

Warriors lose https://t.co/ENPof64vVx

So, this Teodosic play has gone viral, and everybody is acting like they've never seen it before, and I just want to know how come nobody remembers the time that Chris Webber PUT JAKE TSAKALIDIS IN THE WASHING MACHINE?!

If I recall the entire Lakers arena stood up and clapped when we finally made a FT.

Kyrie Irving says,

“We’re the team that gets someone taken out during COVID during the games. We’re the team that has to deal with the refs. We’re the team that is battling against so many odds.”

It’s 6:27am on Feb 10, 2021 and I just wanna say, The Temptations made a song (Papa Was A Rolling Stone) where they let the beat ride for damn near 4 whole minutes before they sang a note. And that joint went OFF.

ok. good morning. good night.

I am posting this tweet in the NBA folder solely because it made me remember that there was one year when the home team was so far ahead in the closeout game of the Finals (I want to say it was Game 5 in 2014, but it could have been Game 6 in 2008) that they just played the 7" version of this song, for the final two minutes or so of regulation. Through change of possession, stoppage of play, and everything else. I remember thinking it was baller as ****.

 

[kingsboi]

never seen Trae Young so animated towards an official but it finally happened

 

[LoungeLizard]

So...who had Frank the tank as being a valuable contributor to a +.500 team this year after we cut him loose?

Going to put that song in my queue today... along with some Little Brother

Two good choices, at any time.

 

[SLAB]

DeMarcus with one of his “I remember how to be good at basketball” nights (so far) with a cool 10/6 with 4 minutes to go in the first quarter.

His defense OTOH ... less said the better.

Man, the Rockets play an unwatchable style of ball.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

His defense OTOH ... less said the better.

Adebayo would have been a bad matchup defensively for Cousins, even if Cousins were healthy: he's got basically no chance, at this point in his career, The weird thing, though, if you been watching the game, and seen Adebayo repeatedly blowing past Cousins, like he was nailed to the floor, you wouldn't believe that Adebayo only has 6 points on 5 shots.

I think there was someone else here besides me who was disappointed we let him go.
