His late career turnaround has been fun. Our old friend Willie could learn a thing or two from JaVale.

Does anyone know if the Thunder claimed anybody off waivers? 'Cause, I mean, if they didn't, the Thunder players are about to have a come up. And, if they did, that's kind of a dick move, from the player's point of view.

Russell Westbrook said he felt discomfort in his back against Milwaukee, and adds that part of the issue is that he's not accustomed "to sitting down for long stretches".

any guy who wears grills while playing is in his own stratosphere along with Willie who I just remembered started this

I came here to say this.

Hard nose tenacious foreign player with tight D baiting hot-headed American player, name a more iconic duo.

(PS: I wonder if the league will look more into that literal punch that the ref somehow deem "basketball move". I wonder if he reffed prison before joining the NBA)

DeMar DeRozan last 4 games:

38 PTS, 5 REB, 4 AST, 59 FG%
36 PTS, 5 REB, 4 AST, 68 FG%

He joins Michael Jordan as the only Bulls players ever with 4+ straight 35-point games. pic.twitter.com/b3YxappsPl

If the Lakers don’t make it out of the first round, will they trade Lebron? I just don’t see a path forward for them. No cap room, no emerging players, no draft picks.

"You look at the history being on the court, what we did in the regular season, we were dominant. So it's unfortunate that winning was not the biggest factor. It's unfortunate that for him, having his own team and I guess being a star was more of his priorities. But I always thought that everything was great, the fit was great. But unfortunately Ben thought that it wasn't. But we all move on."

AD claims he wants to be a power forward and would provide floorspacing and shotblocking next to Domas… hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

But his career 3pt% is sub .300. He will never be a star in todays nba.

Not gonna lie, this has gotta be one of my favorite NBA quotes ever.

NBA refs are out of control this season.

Klay appears to be completely back

On one hand, good for him. But my lord, I hate the Warriors so freakin’ much.

“The result was different than what we’d like, but that was as connected as we’ve been in quite a while,” LeBron James said. James said the Lakers also probably played better because the trade deadline is over.

Let me point out four things:

1) We are only 4.5 games down of the Lakers
2) We just traded for Domantas Sabonis, and this has changed the complexion of our team
3) Luck the Fakers
4) There is no fourth thing

Chicago Bulls All-Star guard Zach LaVine will travel to Los Angeles to see a specialist for his left knee early this week, sources tell ESPN. LaVine has been dealing with recurring discomfort and will get further evaluation. He’s still planning to participate in All-Star Weekend.

Kings play the Bulls on Wednesday.

The Heat probably don't want to face Durant and the Nets in the first round this year.

No one wants to face the Nets once Ben Simmons is available…. And also on days Kyrie is available … and if Durant stays healthy.

Usually don’t tweet, but this one needs better explanation cause it’s really funny! Celtic fan asked me running down the court: “Hey Bogi, how you pronounce your name?”
So I guess he knows now! Lol 😁 #trashtalk #fans #loveit https://t.co/QQiDqeeKWg

The Sixers say James Harden is out through the All-Star break as he continues to rehabilitate his left hamstring, and that he won’t play in the All-Star Game.

I hope Domas gets the replacement spot.
