another comeback victory

The Nets are 17-4 since losing 7 in a row in late November/early December.

jazz have been running with some really big lineups since all their point guards went down

aldridges foul drawing antics are the most tedious shit

nuh unh

yes uh

yeah well THE SPURS WON

Boogie big slam and two quick fouls followed by arguments with the refs to start.

Klay dunk alert

lotta dunks tonite

that's a good move to do, the dunk

A solid thing to add to your game in your late 20s

the dunk is technically the closest shot you can take its even closer than the the layup

dunking is the new hoisting, all the analytics nerds will be like, its the highest percentage shot in the game bc you are <1 ft from the hoop

Dray And Boogie are gonna get so many techs lmao

Nets are gonna buy out Faried and sounds like he’s gonna sign w the rox

dont look now but the utah mormon tabarnacle choir just moved into 7th in the west after winning their 6th straight

weirb season

Woj doing reporting in game is weird.

Dray ejected for hanging on rim

Uh never mind? That was weird. Two techs and gets to stay in

delay of game tech apparently. hanging on rim not a unsportsmanlike? weird.

Never heard of that til tonight

This is insane

That’s sick, Steph. The hesitation and change of pace in front of Beverley gives him the lane. Just crafty as hell pic.twitter.com/AqyDXDePrk

he had some amazing moves tonight

looks like luke walton saw scottie pippen's advice about guarding harden

I mean it’s worth a shot ha

it's been over 5 weeks since harden scored less than 30 in a game (he scored 29)

government shutdown is super powering him

End of philly okc game was willlllllld.

Glad the bulls gave boylen that extension

Zach LaVine: "Something is obviously wrong. We weren't losing by double digits earlier in the season. We might've been losing but we didn't even have a full roster. I don't know. We're a better team now. And we're getting blown out. It doesn't make a lot of sense."

my opinion is that zach lavine is bad and also boylen is bad

Boysenberry is the pantomime nobody can even be bothered to throw tomato’s at, but no way is the takeaway from this half season that Lavine is bad, I mean woeful defensively but 14 other players ever have put up his numbers that efficiently under the age of 23. In a less disastrous setup hes easily an all star

I saw the Boylen autocorrect but left it cause I think perception of him would be vastly different if he was actually called boysenberry

zach lavine's 22-4-4 is the 171st such season by someone 23 and under

http://bkref.com/tiny/DrqU7

you did points and not points per game, theres actually 42

of which lavine is on pace to be 42nd out of 42 in win shares

*that efficiently* aka used his ts% as a baseline

he needs to hoist better before i get excited

excuse me scoring 22 points in a season is an accomplishment to me

Would question the value of win shares as a stat in evaluating players on teams that aren’t expected to win.

yeah thats just what it sorts those by by default or i wouldnt have even looked at the stat

i just think as a one way player he needs to be more efficient than he currently is to be intriguing

I’d argue he’s been very efficient given the circumstances. Given his skill set he’s being asked to do far too much

Boysenberry is the pantomime nobody can even be bothered to throw tomato’s at, but no way is the takeaway from this half season that Lavine is bad, I mean woeful defensively but 14 other players ever have put up his numbers that efficiently under the age of 23.

i mean you might be right, i just cant see him as anything other than a high stats guy on a bad team. he might sneak in as an all-star reserve one day, but right now kyrie, kemba, simmons, oladipo, beal, and lowry are all better backcourt players.

scoring 22 in _this_ economy is all right, but he's never had a positive on/off rating ever, idk idk
