[first season in years the warriors arent dominant everything is wide open, the rockets have two of the last three mvps]

rockets: lets not try

Lol what is brow doing

Adding drama.

calling chicago the mecca of basketball is....an unusual take

tbf i assumed spottie was speaking to kevin o'conner, the history professor from gonzaga

the stats don't look fantastic but jae crowder is playing really hard for memphis which i wasn't sure he would do after spending a lot of time on playoff teams.

Ingram is on fiiiiire

not sure why you act like it's beyond you to google "kevin o'connor nba"

The mere fact you spoke to a person who is attending an NBA game in Brooklyn does not entail that the person must be intimately connected to the NBA in some capacity. I think the arena can hold about 20,000 of them at once. Now, if you'd said Rhianna, I would have figured it out.

Nets were up by 20 now up 2.

ingram actually looks like durant tonight

Haha I was just talking to the guy next to me about that. Just getting directly to his spots raising up and hitting.

Kyrie vs Jrue has been worth the ticket

Bad vibes ITT

Bruno Caboclo is zero years away

brandon clarke is already interesting on defense

Milwaukee having a nice game on the road here

i know you have to draw the line somwhere, but it is weird to me that minny and milwaukee are not even in the same conference yet minny is in the same conference as LA #geography

Minny and Milwaukee not being in the same division is completely bogus and it results in Minnesota having the most travel miles every year

This Warriors b-team is a joy to watch.

i refuse to have the conferences split in such a way that you can't separate them with a north-south line

i.e. milwaukee has to go west or NO and memphis have to come east with minny

really though they should just get rid of conferences

Loving Paschall

The suns beat the 76ers and are officially fun

yeah i watched the first quarter and they looked pretty good out there. no embiid though

No ayton either

baynes>>>

Has ben Simmons gotten better at anything

His offensive repertoire def seems to have plateaued

Warriors up 10 with 2 mins left what’s going on

blazers couldn't get a shot to fall to save their lives since about halfway through the fourth in the main, warriors playing with a surfeit of effort

Eric mf paschall 34/13 to follow up his 25 point effort

Birthday magic.

weird league

paschall's shot is funky, the way he jumps super high and sorta kicks his feet out. i get non-crazy lance stephenson vibes from him.

His shot is pretty wonky. Has nice touch around the rim tho.

Just had a very chill 5 minute convo with Kevin O’Connor. Nice dude.

― de-mamba mentality (Spottie), M

wow cool!

Has ben Simmons gotten better at anything

Aron Baynes is owning for the Suns. Last night in a game the Sixers needed Ben Simmons to step up with Embiid out, Baynes put the clamps on Simmons. On the season, Simmons is shooting only 40% in the half-court, 56% from the line, 3-for-14 on post-ups, and still hasn't tried a 3. pic.twitter.com/cUKDZb4slT

#TradeSimmons #FreeBen

The whole Ben Simmons thing, going back to before college, was “we’re waiting for him to try”

Wow John Collins suspended 25 games

jesus whats goin on in the nba

The NBA announces a 25-game suspension for the Hawks’ promising forward John Collins for testing positive for Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-2 (GHRP-2)

— Marc Stein (@TheSteinLine) November 5, 2019

hawks went from league pass team to bummer real fast

league deciding to crack down on peds?

celtics are playing something called "cleveland" tonight not really sure whats going on anymore

Lot of worried NBA trainers right now I’d imagine

gotta revise the smoothie recipe

Wade got out just in time

lmao

Anthony Davis says he never said he considered going to Chicago next summer. He said he is focused on winning a championship with the Lakers, everyone is aware he’ll be a free agent and “we’ll see where it goes.”

Fuck that Collins news just broke me. Glad they have Jabari now
