Nets lose to the pistons and nash admits he’s not the coach

Steve Nash: "It's up to the team to decide what kind of team they want to be."

losing to the pistons is not good

that is not something I expected to happen in my lifetime

wild times

pelicans have been letting zion handle the ball more and what do you know

The Pelicans beat the Rockets and have won 6 of their last 8 games. 👀

Brandon Ingram: 22 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists
Josh Hart: 20 points, 17 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 blocks
Zion Williamson: 20 points, 5 rebounds, 7 assists pic.twitter.com/wDgShJHu0N

+29 in 21 minutes but there was also extended garbage time at the end of that game. the pels were leading by like 14 or 15 when i flipped away and doubled that in the last few minutes somehow.

josh hart had 17 rebounds?

he did, i watched most of the second half and have no idea how that happened

congrats to josh on what is almost certainly a career high in rebounds

ladies an gentlemen... kyrie irving!

Kyrie Irving says,

“We’re the team that gets someone taken out during COVID during the games. We’re the team that has to deal with the refs. We’re the team that is battling against so many odds.”

were the team thats given up 120+ points in 13 of our last 15 games

interesting, i didn't know that the refs only worked nets games. you'd think they would employ fewer refs in that case.

Hart is a really good rebounder for his position

Add that to the #kyriequotes archives lol what a weirdo

Covid targeting the Nets, not cool

players calling for replays on obvious fouls is a pretty good nba reoccurring joke

gobert just suckered the jazz into actually reviewing one lol

Has kemba forgotten how to shoot?

yes

New statement from the NBA in response to @tim_cato report:

“With NBA teams now in the process of welcoming fans back into their arenas, all teams will play the national anthem in keeping with longstanding league policy.” https://t.co/jb8lTDz97V

The Mavericks will comply with the policy and play the national anthem tonight before playing host to Atlanta at American Airlines Center, league sources say

ugh fuck the man

what i would do is play this land is your land instead

that’s what we in the business call a news cycle baby

I think we should replace it with the Tom Cochrane smash hit “Life Is A Highway”

it is true that life is a highway

lol what was this mavs thing about??

I thought gallinari was supposed to be good

Really like what I’m seeing from RH Hampton. He looks like he belongs, doesn’t make mistakes, surprisingly good rebounder.

Bucks are finally on national TV so I can watch them without using a crappy screen, thanks for nothing Hulu

can i get a whoop whoop

Donte DiVincenzo just threw down a monster dunk in case you were wondering how things were going for the Suns

yeesh ok Chris Paul that's enough from you

hard to overstate how very dope these subs jerseys are

paul’s had a great february so far. second year in a row he’s started really slow and then played great

at some point the suns might wanna come up with a play for the final 4 mins of games that isn’t chris paul or devin booker taking their guy 1 on 1 while the other 4 guys stand motionless

Devin Booker's thoughts when he saw Giannis Antetokounmpo pulling up from the midrange area for the potential game-winner: "We're in good shape."

— Kellan Olson (@KellanOlson) February 11, 2021

hard to argue... middleton was wide open in the corner on that play but dante d didn’t pass him the ball

RJ HAMPTON CHOSE VIOLENCE ON THIS DUNK 😨 pic.twitter.com/Uv4bQHBV5A

last night was the first time ive watched him play this season. he looks very out of shape.

short offseason + immediate foot and ankle injuries = bad news

Yeah a lost season for Gallo at best....

Dubs with no centers vs Magic with no guards!

Wtf these jerseys together in a national game are a crime

the east playoffs are gonna be fascinating

i think charlotte is a playoff team this year

lamelo last 10 19-5-6 48/39/86

really impressive what the blazers are doing to stay afloat without CJ and Nurk.

yeah I just took a glance at the western standings for the first time in awhile and it’s really weird!
