Beyond that, they traded for Jrue and Haliburton dropped a 26 point triple double on his head. Jrue can’t produce in offence anymore either. They play thru Tatum and Brown. Nothing wrong with that, but in that structure you need Jrue to knock down the open shot. Catch and shoot or cut to the rim. He does neither. I never agreed with the trade when it happened and I did not think it made them better.
When can Brown be traded? Looking like a monumental waste of $$ but I’m certain he’ll be moved next year if this year doesn’t deliver to expectations at team level. He will be the scapegoat.
Im also of the opinion the coach is garbage.

I don't think Brown can be traded til next year. Even at his massive salary, plenty of teams will take him. Yeah I don't think Mazulla is the right coach either.

You should care that in a big game Celtics failed to produce on both ends. Same thing happened in the playoffs last season. It’s now a trend.

It's a bad trend in the playoffs no doubt. I don't classify the in season tournament as a big game though.

Why are the Spurs the worst team in the league?

Turns me off basketball.

Haven’t got a point guard and their team is really young plus I think Pop should be ready to retire

They are probably the youngest team in the league. They are just seeing what the players can do now to decide who to keep & you not too. They even have Victor W on a minutes restriction. Wont be a good team for another season or two.

This In-Season torunament has been fun to watch. Hopefully it stays around.

Especially if the mighty lakers win it all

Bulls don't know how to tank. It's a team too good to tank and not good enough to mount anything decent argh

That’s why we stay mediocre every season. Not good enough to win but not bad enough to get a top draft pick.

Congrats to the Lakers.

Pacers missed too many 3 point shots. 9/35 is terrible.

2/14 is worse tbf

 

[Freakzilla]

2/14 is worse tbf

Pacers ended up 10/41 & Lakers 2/13. % Lakers were worse yes but they didn't take as many & shot 60% from 2 which is why they won. They took smarter shots. Pacers took dumb shots.

@Shanked the Magic are still doing well.. I think getting a few vets like Ingles has really helped them take that next step. Ingles has been solid on the court but his leadership and experience would be invaluable for a young team.

Yeah, on the back of of our defense. During JI mins were holding teams to 92 points per 100 possessions, and suggs is like a dog with a bone. Just need everyone healthy

Dallas looking like what I thought they would last year. Kyrie and Luka duo is producing. Hardaway found his niche as a 6th man scorer. Lively is a great big, rookie. Exum having a career year.
Don’t think they’ll be better than a second round team, but offensively they are superb to watch.

How good is a Coby White playing for the Bulls without Lavine there. Guys been a star. Finally seeing what he can do

Was a big fan of his before he got drafted by the Bulls. Glad he’s finally living up to the potential.

lol Pacers lose and take the game ball for a guy who scored 1, then wonder why Giannis who just dropped 64 on them is hot?

Jalen Brunson’s contract might be the best deal value wise we’ve seen in some time
