man this is a stinker jokic game so far

Grayson 8/8 from three lol

all the jokic powers went to sengun tonight who scored 45-16 with 5 steals on the wemby spurs

the record for most 3 pointers without a miss is 9. i think only 2 players have done 8

nuggets bench (not a typo) trims it to a 6 point lead. jokic should be subbing in with less than 8 to play

back to back peyton swatson blocks

joker really wanted that challenge

I’ve never seen him do that lol

he’s good again now

oh my god what a comeback

Kcp v good

dammit crazy game

suns scored more in OT than in the whole 4th

road win over denver without booker pretty huge for the suns in real terms, could end up keeping them out of the play in by 1 game

they need to look into if someone put a hex on their 4th quarter play, theyve been by some measures the worst 4th quarter team ever, and it happened again last night, then overtime came and they were rolling, its very odd

stan van was laying into their terrible 4th quarter offence

you saw some of the kd problems last night nugs hassling him at the elbow really bothered him pushing him out further getting into his body and he missed a bunch, then he did hit some threes off of actions, makes you think

yeah he was taking these crazy like twisting standstill elbow jumpers where he’s not even facing the basket when he leaves his feet. when he makes one it’s pretty impressive and some crunch time possessions just go that way but it feels like he kinda hits a wall literally

the book on him is out there and he doesnt seem to want to adapt

his career has veered way more towards nba weirdo and away from all time great than it should have

athletically he can only do so much, it's just not that hard for good locked in defenders to stay in front of him

yeah not being able to get to the rim anymore is prob the root problem here but i think just taking more threes scheming around that rather than these elbow jumpers would be better, then when he does have driving opportunities hes got more room to get some momentum going

achilles tear really robs you of that first step burst. its the mental block of whats gonna happen if i make this move... might as well just work into a smooth middy, thats an easy low-risk shot ive mastered.

big half for the dubs

Bucks are giving them a little bit of space and they are just not missing. but hey, at least they're not fouling them :)

just flipped to the last 6 seconds of jazz-bulls because it was a 1 point game and john collins and a bulls assistant coach started a brawl, nice

which was probably the 100th percentile outcome of deciding to turn on jazz bulls

dame took the one legged 3pt floater (miss)

Bucks playing defense like they're trying to throw the game

offense is clicking though

TJD > giannis

if draymond is hitting back to back threes it might not be your night

looks like shai pulled his hammy

maybe just a stinger actually

TJD > giannis

The Orlando Magic are 37-26, 4th in the East, and 13-3 over their past 16 games with one of the 5 easiest remaining schedules.

They have the NBA's 5th-youngest roster. Their 3 best players are 21, 22 and 22.
