yep not biting on his shoulder fakes at all

all in all, a good night of hoops

Just what we needed

the denver nuggets will win the NBA bubble

first two games came down to the last shot (misses)

bron looking like the best player in the league tonight

More basketball!!

ooh Celts v Bucks soon

yah, that's gonna be necessary

as we were saying

Who's the best shooter in the bubble? Based on just this year, it's Khris Middleton. Yes, Khris Middleton

At least that was true before COVID-19. Will it still be true now?

Why the Bucks' favorite status and the entire title race hinges on that questionhttps://t.co/L9TC1pz5Et

Not sure we needed the Nets in the bubble

if you were gonna have zion you needed to get the nets

And Zion showed up out of shape. Not a great situation

and NO is not really playing him!

Nurkic looks great, whiteside looks like Whiteside

it wasn't about zion it was about money... they needed regular season games to generate tv revenue and salary for the players. thus you needed more than just the playoff teams there, thus the nets, and here we are. in 6 weeks nobody will remember anything about the nets time in the bubble

well the nets were one of the 8 teams but you know what i mean

all the above really

Why couldn’t you have all the playoff teams play regular season game vs each other

Tbf the wizards are the more questionable team rn

doing it this way generates more product and concocting some elaborate 8/9 play in game scheme make it less transparent that they're shipping the kings, suns, wizards etc off to orlando just to wring cash out of regional sports networks. also zion

they've also created the illusion of the restarted season having meaning... if you had the playoff teams playing vs each other simply for seeding purposes nobody would care because there's not even home court

they shdve just brought all the teams and finished the regular season, instead they brought 3/4 of the teams?

It’s a half measure for sure

Tbf the wizards are the more questionable team rn

otm

i think this weird short end to the season is good. let the players play through the rust for a couple weeks.

Officiating has been so bad in the bubble... I had hoped it would be better with no crowds

i recognize approx half of the people in the blazer's virtual fan pool, this is my shame

love that

Jonathan Isaac refused to kneel...

nurk looks absolutely incredible

Sorry this is bullshit

Griffin: (Zion) will not play significant minutes in the next game, and he may not in the next one."

Nurkic sometimes tosses off a ferociously great game. Then he reverts to the mean, which is only to be expected.

lol sad man in him prayer room

bubble hoops reminds me of olympic hoops

Me too

Lillard takes some awful shots. Paul George would agree with me.

At least there's no air horns xp w myself

This turned into a hell of a game

Melo colllllld blooded

all those techs were funny. players gonna have to bit their tongue a bit cant hide behind crowd noise and distractions in the bubble

uhhhh the blazers gonna choke this?

nothing would surprise me less

big W for pdx there.

completely different team with nurk/collins back

dame's finish on that drive w/ about 40 secs to go was sublime

Why is this court brighter!?!?

More stars!
