Jack Armstrong's grown on me, I used to hate him. He's chilled on the homerism since the Raptors won a title

there were a few recent celtics games where sean grande the celtics usual radio guy did the tv play by play with scal (bad) doing the color and it wasnt good but maybe because grande was like this is my opportunity to not detail every movement of the ball he did very minimal play by play and they were kinda just talking in a low key manner for a bunch of it almost like a podcast, idk like i said it wasnt actually great but it made me think there are some different styles that could be explored

lmao

i don't catch radio bball very often but grande is very good when i do

fred vanvleet.... welcome to the resistance

ball back

Hornets say LaMelo Ball's fractured right wrist has healed and he has been cleared to return to individual basketball activity.

Oh wow I thought he was out for the season

yeah thats what they said, were prob just being conservative

wow, conservatism fails again, tough year for the gop

bulls with a couple big recent draft whiffs markkanen and white not even starting yikes

markannen is in the dumps what happened to that dude

oh i guess white did start but anyway seems like he kinda sucks

markannen is in the dumps what happened to that dude

his percentages are actually career best, maybe they just dont like him next to vooch cause of defense idk

It looks like the bulls whiffed on Coby White too.

I saw a comparison of Bargnani and Markannen’s numbers that was pretty eerie.

re: markannan it's got to be tough when you know your current team has no interest in keeping you around

bulls fans are so down on dude. he needs a new start somewhere yah

Wowwww

thats a laser

sexland connection

garland may never be that good but he's a fun player to watch throwing crazy passes and making floaters and stuff

bulls fans are so down on dude. he needs a new start somewhere yah

saw speculation that the spurs will go after him, kind of a perfect situation. spurs have tons of cap space, a need for a stretch big, plenty of good defenders to put around him.

yeah they seem like a team that could make him at least functional

are the cavs gonna be contending next year?

for the playoffs? maybe.

jfc steph is on one of the all time great heaters

If Steph doesn’t take 20 threes next game it’s a failure of coaching

if you took only stephs last five games he would rank second in number of career games with 10 made 3s

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN ANYTHING SO BEAUTIFUL?

Yes. Bill Walton made equally amazing full court passes about twice a game. Never seen anyone close to him in that department.

refs appear to have just gifted the game to the Suns

Booker at the OT buzzer. He misses, but the refs call it a shooting foul. Booker wins it at the line #Suns #Bucks #NBA pic.twitter.com/IhCAxhIBEB

they spent 3 minutes reviewing this and still got it wrong

yeah not seeing anything there (did not spend 3 mins)

was a really great game too, double OT would've been fun

the best i could see was tucker maybe tapping him on the forearm but it's not the nonreviewable call you want to end the game

It looks like the bulls whiffed on Coby White too.

I saw a comparison of Bargnani and Markannen’s numbers that was pretty eerie.

and can’t/won’t pass. ball dominant sub 6-3 PG who isn’t an elite shooter... not sure you’re getting the returns on that you’re hoping for

iirc consensus was it was a reach at the time

i think he was seen as a mid to low first round pick coming into the year and then really got hot at the end of the season for UNC. he was a super fun player and i thought maybe he could be a lou williams level sixth man... maybe he still can, the bulls recent track record of development is awful. but white doesn’t seem to have a great idea of how to be a positive player on lots of nights

yeah, the hope was that he was more than a bench guard but in all likelihood he's a bench guard

when was the last time a non-derrick rose bulls draftee was Good? am i forgetting someone?

wow forget it, its butler in 2011, but other than that its dire

like denzel valentine, portis is aight, wendell carter already been traded, tony snell is still in the league at least, just....wooof

i don't remember anyone just killing the white, carter, or markkanen picks but drafting 7th is tough.

norris cole getting drafted by the bulls and traded multiple times two picks before jimmy butler is a fun footnote.

Awesome win for the nuggets. Cancar needs to start planning for Europe.

more like cantcar

markkanen was just horrible development. you can tell he has talent. the five guys drafted immediately after him were frank ntilikina, dennis smith jr, zach collins, malik monk, luke kennard so i don't think you can really kill the pick. (obv donovan mitchell and bam go right after those two but still). they just handed him over to fred hoiberg and jim boylen and now here we are.

wendell carter jr was a mistake from the jump, the idea that he would fit or develop next to markkanen never made sense. they went "best player available" and got bitten. white was prob just a bad evaluation.

really bad ownership there trickling down to bad management to bad coaching to betting the next three seasons on zach lavine and vucevic

hard to remember anyone making embiid look like a fool on defense the way steph did a few times tonight

steph is impossible

btw lil bastard cp3 is averaging 9.4 assists and 1.3 turnovers for april, on a cool little run of his own

Sixers have the wrong Curry, lol. Gotta be a little tough for Seth having the greatest shooter of all time for a brother. Otoh, maybe he gets a break because of the last name.

the shots he was hitting against the celtics were just ridic. one particular 4-point play i think he hoiked up like a hook shot.
