yeah with the playin its really a too ling layoff noticed teams like to get their guys some burn in the second to last game

lol jokic with the 6-10-10 draymond line

Looks like the suns have picked their opponent, resting their guys vs the clips means they’ll likely meet the clips in rd1

it almost feels like it's rude now not to rest your guys when you have a seed locked up and the game means something to the other team

Yah but this is different

the mavs getting investigated by the league for how they handled the bulls game is truly a cherry on top of a pile of cherries

Ha otm

#techsupport question - I'd been having good luck watching league pass with a VPN to watch wolves games suddenly it's not working says it's local even when I'm going through Chicago or Detroit. anyone else using a VPN?

na sry i gave up on league pass when they wouldnt let me do the foreign cheapo price deal

btw happy scrub day to all the guys getting burn today lol, celtics are playing a g league guy they signed two days ago apparently for this very purpose

Pritchard has already taken 10 threes in 15 minutes.

league pass price was cut in half this year btw

support shot creators

i got youtube tv instead the cadillac baby, league pass technology product is just not that great

plus the issue of watching local games which is what i do mostly

Wolves are on shithole Bally Sports North which isn't on YT TV, they offered a standalone app this year but it was $20+ a month. the whole media landscape sucks ass

its true

think i heard bally sports just went bankrupt too

yeah it's very likely it won't make it to next season which puts a bunch of NBA teams' broadcasts in jeopardy

do you get the halftime shows on YT TV?

naw its regular tv which is worse, tho tbf the more i had league pass/illegal streams the more i learned to despise the in area hype people the ones who run the dumb lil games and whatnot always yelling with a weird flat affect theyre the worst, commercials are bad too tho whatever i mute em all

aw ur such a scrooge

theyre so bad! the worst is the okc guy but theyre pretty much all terrible fuckin shoot a three for chase bank

the celtics hype lady is atrocious, critical support for you in this struggle lag00n

thank you (theyre all exactly like that tho lol)

today's adventures in tanking, texas-style. houston inexplicably won, ending their season with 22 wins. if the spurs lose, they clinch 2nd worst in the league, but theyre playing late-tanker dallas right now and everyone is playing g-leaguers on g-leaguers. spurs absolutely shotting this last-second opportunity to guarantee at worst the 6th pick.

118-73 after 3 quarters warriors vs blazers an embarrassing display capped off by this

shout out to the time lagoon and I went to the final meaningless blazers game of the season (2017, vs Memphis maybe?) and we didn’t know who any of the guys were, what a hoot

oh shit
wow I don't think Gobert was popular in the locker room already, punching Slo Mo isn't going to endear him with anyone

cool cool cool cool this is fine

Jaden McDaniels punched a wall so hard he put himself out of the game pic.twitter.com/QJQFoMI1i2

Blessed on this Easter Sunday

What's even better than end-of-season playoff jockeying, it's incredibly premature Luka trade scenarios!

Someone start a offseason thread

Silas out as rockets coach

so it looks like the clippers fucked up and got the 5 seed which pushes the warriors to the non-denver/phoenix side of the bracket. bad break for denver

Minnesota wins against New Orleans, setting up the play-in tournament.

Tuesday: Hawks at Heat, Wolves at Lakers in the 7-8 games

Wednesday: Bulls at Raptors, Thunder at Pelicans in the 9-10 games

stashing assets for the 2023 nba offseason

Minnesota Timberwolves F Jaden McDaniels -- who was seen punching a wall on his way to the halftime locker room – has a fractured hand, sources tell ESPN.
