    That last 8 minutes of the Wolves/Lakers game was bananas. Horrible execution, but fun to watch!

    Are you watching the NBA in Stephen A’s world or just watching the game on ESPN.

    Comparing Anthony Edwards to Damian Lillard isn't the hill I'd expect anyone to die on.

    Im just sayin... One game while noticeably injured is not really indicative of anything. Like thw one 3 for 17 game, Dame has had some stinkers too in big moments.

    I stick by my initial point that 30 out of 30 gms would select to build around KAT rather than Edwards (especially when contracts are in play too)

    If Toronto blows this game, does Nick Nurse get canned?

    Toronto could be sellers, and yes, Nurse is gone.

    ??

    I think the rule for players is they can't speak to another player about that other player joining the first player's team. In other words, it's a rule that get violated quite a few times during the all-star break, and probably hundreds of times each summer

    I'd love Nick Nurse just as much as Pascal Siakam for Portland. Can we get please get both?

    Siakam would be nice. But if I were Toronto I would pair him with Barnes and trade OG.

    Sounded similar to me at Blazer games, screaming at every opponent free throw.
