Doc is an idiot. Paul Reed was G-League MVP last year and is a super-athletic modern big who is still raw. He will likely end up being a nothing player, but Jordan is a negative player. Reed gives you a very active defender, rebounder, etc. who is at least the type of rim runner that should do well with Harden. Why not try it before you lose to Toronto and get fired?

if the 2 celtics play 7 nets this year it will be the inverse of last year when the nets were 2 and the celtics 7

which would be fun but maybe even more fun is the nets losing to the cavs

congratulations to the eastern conference!

ah luka that sucks hopefully its not too bad and he can get it sorted before the offs start

'no timetable' doesnt sound promising for making it back any time soon

mavs without luka yuck. that roster is already sketchy. but the jazz will probably give up four 15+ point 4th quarter leads anyway.
― jammin on the dud (Spottie), Tuesday, 12 April 2022 17:38 (two years ago) link
apparently the median time lost for a calf strain this season is 16 days which isn't good
― call all destroyer, Tuesday, 12 April 2022 17:39 (two years ago) link
it will certainly be quite a capper to the Jazz season if they lose to a Luka-less Mavs
― Lavator Shemmelpennick, Tuesday, 12 April 2022 17:41 (two years ago) link
rather than specifically giving up big 4th quarter leads, they should probably go up 3-1 and then lose the series, really lean into the art form
