That organization is tough to play for . They have to get him some help.
Booker dropped 30 on my Mavs last night in 117-115 Phoenix win. So it looks like Mavs-Clippers in Round 1.
Can we put to bed the notion that Harden is one of the worst defenders already? I feel like that argument pretty much died out two years ago..
Someone update me on what’s happened today before I watch the sixers get their teeth kicked in by some no name at the end of the bench for 50
as perceptive as you are. you calling me a racist is not insulting to me. my comments were towards the nba and tv. networks stereotyping towards blacks. but you so quick to try insult someone and be billy bad *** behind a computer screen says enough about yourself. anyway your mom said i'm better than you
Here's the thing with me. They should not do this on their employer's time. Not while on their job. Most of the population does not have this opportunity. I get that their job is public. But doing this while performing their jobs pisses me off.
Why can't these athletes do this on their own time? On a separate platform? I'll tell you why - because it would damage their brand and they and the NBA can't allow that to happen. They are taking advantage of the NBA's cowardice.

my damn Suns...when I renewed season tickets I told my guy if the Suns pass on Fox and take Josh Jackson, that will prove their stupidity and they don't really scout players and do their proper vetting and I will drop my tickets.
WTF did they do? and I dropped my tix
Now, they actually have a coach with smarts and balls, and a better GM and Fitzgerald is also a confidant of the owner.
Sarver has finally surrendered himself with people that are much smarter about basketball than him...and he has stepped back.
Full disclosure on Sarver... he has said many times he wanted Fox and the GM would not do it all...one of the four big reasons he was fired, the others are Chriss, Dragen Bender and the handling of Bledsoe
Most of the population doesn't have the opportunity to be on TV. Most of the population doesn't have the opportunity to make millions of dollars. Most of the population doesn't have the kind of national identity or platform for their message to get out unless they manage to go viral for a day on social media. So what's your point with that part of the statement?
they all get a freebie to magic city.
and probably take the rest of the games off.
Luka versus Fox at 1:30 today. Should be an up and down, high scoring affair. Mavs don't have anyone who can guard Fox. He's way too quick.
I love that these games are starting early in the day.. feels like those 2 weeks BEFORE March Madness where conference tournaments are going off at all times.
I have a meeting at 2:00pm, but then putting the games on in the background for the rest of the day.
Luka and Fox both having great games early in the 3rd......
LOVE this damn game (NBA)
If the Clippers were to lose this game, it would make things verrrry interesting. Only being a game up on Denver and 2.5 on Houston.
Not that it matters much at the end of the day, there is no home field advantage. But still, these playoff standings are far from set.

With how good Toronto was before Kawhi, and now how good they've been after Kawhi... are we overrating him a bit? Not saying he isn't a top10 player.. but is he truly in discussion for best current player?
Mavs came back to beat Foxes in OT.
Luka: 34 pts 20 reb 12 ast
Fox had 28 pts 9 ast.
Sacramento lead almost the whole way.

I definitely think he is in the discussion and deserved the MVP last season. He is tough as nails. He rarely makes mistakes, plays great defense, big time scorer, etc. I think "the Freak" gets the MVP this year, but a lot of basketball to be played yet.
Nah I don't think KL is over rated. He's damn good
Toronto just locks down on defense. The last 5 defensive posessions from the other night were amazing to watch. I think one clean shot in the last 5
Yup. Certainly lived up to all his hype.
Yeah I mean, I have no issue with KL.. and I appreciate his head-down demeanor. It's just wild to see Toronto barely miss a beat without him. And I don't know why people say KL is in the discussion but Harden is usually left out.
Then again, I am a Rockets fan..

After the show he is putting on so far in the bubble, Harden is closing fast for MVP this year. They should wait until after the playoffs are over to announce MVP.
Portland giving their bigs the ball almost everytime down the floor. Gonna be a tough one for Houston..
