if Bron & AD got hurt before the season started this Lakers team would probably lose all 82 games

I bet they’d be playing a lot better than they are cos they’d have no expectations and could play freely

doesnt seem like theres a lot of love for westbrook throughout the league

so they have 60 turnovers each game instead of 40

there's this weird dichotomy of westbrook behavior where he is apparently amazing to team employees, he was like the best disney hotel housekeeping tipper in the bubble and essentially cleaned his own room, but then for teammates, opponents, and journalists he seems like he's a bit of an asshole.

it's very nice that he seems to be respectful to regular workers, but that indicates that he could also just be nicer to everyone?

worth a shot

This dubs celts game is nasty stuff

lol kerr smart beef

Yah Russ been flexing on the league and acting insane and now wants to be a victim idk I’m fine with the pile on. He’s completely unwilling to change his game. I bet he’s out of the league within a couple seasons like AI did

Smart dive into curry

he was going for the ball, he got it

the leg kick in the air was bad but i'm sorry, you're allowed to dive to get the ball

lol draymond is a silly man

the warriors are playing offense like they have never heard of rob williams

word of him may have not reached california yet

i missed curry's injury, how bad was it

didnt look bad wouldnt be surprised if he plays in the 2nd half

it didn't look bad to me? like his foot/ankle got stuck under smart's body for a second but that was all i could see.

If it’s a high sprain tho

feel like usually if its a bad sprain the guy will be down for a while

The Warriors staff was upset with both of these Marcus Smart plays. First one was a roll up of Steph Curry's leg that has him currently in the locker room, second ruled a flagrant on Klay Thompson. Kerr was telling refs to review both plays, mimicking a leg chop to officials. pic.twitter.com/6edSJxQszv

Who is Rob Williams?
Get me RobWilliams!
Get me a Rob Williams type!
Get me a younger Rob Williams!
Who is Rob Williams?

the disrespect the timberwolves were showing russ tonight was pretty jaw dropping. that’s a former MVP

I think they kinda took on the personality of their teammate pat bev for the game. Who’s been really piling on over the last week

have to think a lot of these guys are looking at russ and saying how much does he make? and he can't even shoot a normal jumper?

Steph no return and we got …. One game of the big three

Warriors getting a lot of good looks just some of the worst shooting you’ll ever see here

this Pat Bev/Westbrook sequence. yikes. pic.twitter.com/U3xETxd2KQ

Great Jordan Poole quarter there

celtics dont have a ton of turnovers but feel like they kind of have butterfingers tonight

i would simply guard jordan poole better

Chiozza westherspoon jta Kuminga is a lineup choice

turned dubs-celtics off already. trey lyles still being in the league is crazy to me

i had to go through my nba player rolodex to confirm that this is indeed quinndary weatherspoon

movement in the east

The Raptors get a big win over the Clippers tonight in LA, sending them to five straight victories and moving them into a tie with Cleveland for sixth in the East. Both teams are 4 losses ahead of Brooklyn with 13 games to go — in short, it’ll be tough for Nets to escape play-in.

— Tim Bontemps (@TimBontemps) March 17, 2022

It’s also worth noting that the Bulls, after losing to Utah tonight, are now behind the Celtics in the standings & only two losses ahead of both Cleveland & Toronto (and also two losses back of second). The race for positioning in the East will be intense over the next few weeks. https://t.co/E7XqMftwpj

In the west… can the wolves catch one of nuggets jazz or mavs and get out of the play in?

it seems plausible but all those teams are playing pretty well right now

wolves are 9-1 in their last 10, mavs are 8-2, nuggets are 7-3. so they haven’t made up a ton of ground

My God that Westbrook/Beverly clip. I've never in my life gone down the "these athletes get paid too much, if I was making that much I'd be busting my ass every play" sports talk call-in rant path but that clip is pushing me down it

lol
