Has a team ever had two guys with triple doubles in the same game?

blazers in a must-win now tonight huh sounds like this could bring some ... drama

I played lillard 100% on DraftKings, can’t fight city hall!

im sure rwb and harden did it this year xp

Lebron and Lonzo did it and it was the first time in over a decade. But yeah imagine harden and Russ have done it by now

Why didn’t Pop take advantage of the bubble barbers?

hes an oldass widower and he doest give a fuck

Blazers are just atrocious defensively. If they even make it to round one I don’t think the lakers have much to worry about.

one of the least physical teams i've seen in recent memory

Lillard, McCollum and melo is a lot of bad defense to have in your starting lineup

regardless if they make the playoffs, they gotta make some moves. keep nurk and dame but everyone else should be available.

it's amazing what they've done honestly, they have 2 1/2 good players

i give credit to how much of a talent and competitor dame is and how good stotts is as a coach

yup, completely agree.

i know the blazers defense is terrible, but caris levert is legit with those herky-jerk stop-start moves

otoh that final brick was v bad

idk wtf reggie is talking about but that was not a good look.

levert could get to the rack so easy all game & takes that jumper wtf

there's a reason why ideally caris is a 6th man

respect to the bubble suns, i wish them the best for next season

Maaaaaaan blazers d was atrocious

caris missed on purpose out of respect for dame

this is canon now

so that game was extremely anticlimactic but pretty much even with every other blazers bubble game so fair enough and also it sucks the griz are in instead of phx who deeply fucked up the bub every night but c'est la vie and may we be blessed with a max amount of dame as demigod games going forward

Amen. Very excited to see Dame try to show up Lebron.

Nurkic seems like he’s worn out. Started off the bubble looking like the best center in the game

Bulls have fired coach Jim Boylen

wow, boylen is gone. but he accomplished so much.

Most bad NBA coaches get fired without ever leaving a mark. Jim Boylen literally installed a punch clock at practice, caused a team mutiny his third day on the job, coined the phrase 'double lose', compared Luke Kornet to Robert Horry, drew up ATOs for Adam Mokoka while down 20,

Invented a 'leadership council' that didn't exist, made grown men do push-ups and wind sprints at practice, put Ryan Arcidiacono on Giannis, spoke daily of 'growth plates and 'care factors', had no shame in losing to the worst team in the NBA, "prepare the children for the road"

— Ricky O'Donnell (@SBN_Ricky) August 14, 2020

Defended losses by quoting "Field of Dreams", said he wanted his team to average 35 assists which has never happened, watched almost every major piece on the team regress, had a rookie center say he's "got some things he can get better at as a person and as a coach”

— Ricky O'Donnell (@SBN_Ricky) August 14, 2020

as someone with no investment in the Bulls this is a sad day, Boylen delivered incredible lolz

really quite unbelievable he made it as long as he did.

never underestimate how stingy Reinsdorf Co is

ha didnt know half of that stuff the punch clock my god

Not really sure what happened to Derrick Jones, but they had to carry him off on a stretcher. Really just looked like he ran into a screen with his shoulder :(

Kings GM Vlade Divac is stepping down, source tells @TheAthleticNBA. Joe Dumars (advisor previously) will be interim executive VP of basketball ops and immediately assumes GM duties. Dumars will be involved in the search for a new GM.

end of an era

fire up the 21 cig salute

"My understanding is that Divac being so close to Luka and knowing his dad so well factored into their decision," MacMahon said on ESPN's "The Woj Pod." "Basically, he didn't think a whole lot of Luka's dad, and the whole like father like son ... well ... no, this is a different dude.

yo is it true vlade divac got sonned by a slovenian kid after a yugoslav beef????

wow, that is quite an acceleration from the story i read ~24 hours ago about how joe dumars was an emerging voice in the kings org and that he and vlade would be working together closely!

Shoulda happened years ago
