It is the years 2018-19 in the National Basketball Association (NBA) - The Regular Season

is otto porter out there taking people off the bounce and hitting stepbacks?

no but that wasnt the criteria xp

joe ingles or even klay dont do that and they are elite shooters. mos tof the guys on that list are catch and shoot guys

i'm thinking i probably don't consider most catch and shoot guys to be elite shooters because the shots the take aren't very hard

hitting them at a high rate is great but idk, i don't exactly fear most of them

cool, cool

Jimmy Butler is taking next step in six-week-long process aimed at getting the All-Star out of Minnesota by sitting tonight against Utah, and could lead to extended absence for Butler, league sources tell me and @JonKrawczynski.

hope they fine him into oblivion.

its funny the nba thought they concocted a way for teams to keep the best players but really they just make another salary boobytrap

yeah it's perhaps one of the finest examples of unintended consequences

not only is it not incentivizing teams to keep their stars but it's actually in some cases incentivizing them to *not* keep them i.e. cousins in sacramento

the idea that any team, other than as jordan mentioned a very dumb team, would trade for wall’s contract is laughable imo

so you're saying the Wolves are gonna trade Butler for Wall.

if those are predominantly standstill catch and shoots then no not really.

yeah u gotta be able to get looks to make shots and porter just isnt good like that, john wall has fwiw consistently ranked out as the best pg at creating open 3s for his teammates and porter still only puts up 4 3s a game, hes much closer to al horford than klay

the idea that any team, other than as jordan mentioned a very dumb team, would trade for wall’s contract is laughable imo

naw an only somewhat dumb team under the right circumstances is totally capable of talking themselves into it

particularly if they can unload some of their own bad contracts

ok but I'm not sure miami really fits that description

have u seen miamis salary situation my lord its not full of real smart signings

they've chosen the life of the 6-8 seed don't hate them for what they're not

whiteside looking a lot better this year. seems like every other player on that team is paid 13 milli.

#Rockets HC Mike D’Antoni on tonight’s loss:

“We’re not making shots. We’ll find something, we’ll get back, and hopefully it’s not too late. All I’m asking from the guys is to have the spirit until we figure this out.”

“It’s hard to explain, we’ve lost our swagger.”

i dont think melo is on this roster after new years.

melo and dwight are the cursed players now

now?

currently

since 2010.

i think melo is out of the league next season

time 4 china

google won't show me the pics of melo with the orbs but i'm sure i didn't imagine them

i must be reading this box score wrong bc it says derrick rose has scored 33 points through 27 minutes

I think that’s meant to be 27 games

i'm *really* not enjoying all these laudatory derrick rose tweets

two killer threes from oladipo to beat the knicks tonight

probably the player i least want to see doing well

close games tonight all around

Rose has been...kinda good so far?

Has there been a game where both teams scored under 100 so far?

spurs starting rudy gay, dante cunningham and brynn forbes.... what a world

Nuggets are winning the close games they used to lose, pretty much everyone has improved defensively. Playoffs are happening.

Plumlee is so good on defense now, just a perfect fit

I faded Derrick Rose in DFS Tonight...

Lol that sucks. career high 50

rose scoring a career high in 2018 is more improbable and weird than anything that's happened in the last two years

Are we still saying that Draymond is injured or can we admit he’s playing like shit

he's been useless

Stephen A.... just kudos to you my dear, dear friend

he's a master of the form

spurs starting rudy gay, dante cunningham and brynn forbes.... what a world

it's been their best starting lineup with demar and lamarcus.

So The Suns. Not good.

dunno who's gonna save the suns but i don't think they're on the roster yet

Suns definitely have a cultural issue there where they keep adding talent and it doesn’t matter. Like the early 90s clippers teams.

idk, other than booker and ayton, their talent is p marginal.
