    I stopped watching them for it and I believe a lot of other people did too.

    Looks like King James will take have a “reduced role” the rest of the season.

    Seemed like it started about the time Lebron was trying to send the whole team to New Orleans. :)

    IMO, they stand an excellent chance of ending up with Zion.

    Probably get the #1 and send Zion to NO for AD? I think that's what @hoopsjock said.

    Jrue Holiday out 7-10 days, hope he don’t play against us. We need all the help we can get.

    I think there will be a rash of 1-2 week injuries to starters on lottery teams....too cynical?

    LeBron shutting it down. Reduced minutes and no back to backs. With about 20 games left. What a failure.

    When you do home games is there a lot less “set up / prep” time then road games? I assume all your equipment is set up all the time?

    We were chasing the #2 seed. Now I'm worried, the Lakers might catch up to us.
    The Western Conference is f&(&_ brutal.
    And YES, we could lose to the Suns ...

    Pretty much the same. I go in 6 hours early instead of 7. Today was great. Love working for TNT...... it’s like a day off for me.

    OMG...Utah best be thinking of firing their coach and changing GM's. Unacceptable to lose on the road in the NBA, against a non playoff team!
    What has this league become?

    How do you like our remaining schedule? Looks like we are done playing the big Guns / Trouble teams (except for Denver twice).
    Utah, GS, Houston, Thunder, Celtics, bucks, raptors, 76ers, ... are all in the books. We have the potential (highlight potential) to win 65-70% of the remaining games, which should give us well above 50 wins.
    Obviously, we need to remain focused and take every game seriously.
    Thoughts?

    It’s winning time. I worry Houston is gonna have a long win streak and will be hard to catch but we’ll see.
