Regular season winding down.

Joker still playing with 23 before the half. Dont know how he isnt far more in consideration for MVP, but oh well.

Should be a fun playoffs. I dont feel like any one team has the title locked down like in several years past. Spurs, OKC, Boston, Detroit. Then serious dark horses in Denver, Knicks.

Wemby about to start making his case of why hes gonna be one of the most amazing players to ever lace 'em up. When all is said and done, IF he stays healthy, hes gonna be one of those guys you must tune into watch, and I dont even think Joker, for as good as he is, is someone you have to tune in to see. Wemby is just unreal.

Curry and the Warriors still suck.

It's OKC and the rest of the field.
It's also SGA and everybody else.

Not only did this year prove hes not the best player in the NBA.. hes actually not even the 2nd best player either. And sadly, Flagg is gonna take 3rd before long.

SGA is a better and easier-to-root for James Harden.. but in the end, that's a lot of his game, being a free throw merchant. I truly hate having to be anti-SGA in these forums because hes such an offensive weapon from all 3 levels, he is SO good, especially being a Wildcat. But I also can't let people think hes on Jokers level.

Joker is the best player in the league but Wemby is coming on strong. Wemby has that wow factor that Jordan, Shaq, AI, & Curry all have/have. He does stuff that leaves you in disbelief. I still think Melo is the most fun to watch though. He’s brings Jason “White Chocolate” excitement except he’s a much better overall player.

That's a great social media talking point. Even a total free throws over 3 seasons graphic.... crazy! Good job! 👍🏾

Fortunately the games will be played and they will be watched.

I'm not buying Detroit's regular season translating to playoff success. Oddsmakers have Cavs as a favorite over them to meet Boston in ECF and I think that's about right. Celtics > Cavs > Knicks > Pistons seems like a fair power rating for the East.

Damn, rooting for the Heat for Herro and Bam.. and i know this will sound crazy because of the game Bam had recently.. but both feel like they've maxed out their potential, and currently have contracts that just feel bloated for what they are.

Heat probably have to blow this up unless they can land something big in the draft or FA.

LaMelo and Knueppel are 2/21 from 3. Fortunately for them they have Coby White who has the heart of a lion and wants to keep playing.

The three that White hit to send it to OT broke my heart, but that was incredible. Their season hanging in the balance, and he hits a fall away contested three. This is why I love watching the NBA.

Steph Curry shows us why he’s still a top three player, and why Kawhi is beta. I think the Warriors lose to OKC, but it could go seven. Steph goes 9-13, 5-7 on threes in the second half, including the game winning three. He’s 38! GOAT indeed

It was a great moment, but let’s not go overboard lol. The Warriors have to beat phoenix to even get to OKC. And OKC will wipe the floor with them if they get there.

If Warriors have Jimmy, they might win it all. But who knew Santos and Horford were gonna come up huge late? Steph hits >8 threes on Friday. Steph is GOAT and we all know it.

Curry was amazing last night, awesome game. I think it’s OKC’s to lose again, honestly have no idea who will come out of the east.
