    I liked Killian Hayes shaking his head "no" while grumpy Pistons chanted. Basically saying >> piss off you little wankers

    Are you saying that historically you don't need one of the best players in the league?

    No. Historically, having your best player being a small pg is not good

    did it bother anyone else that Michaels shot from the sub technically wasn't "nothing but net"?

    Think the original point got lost. Agree with your statement because Curry is the only small pg that I can think that has been a 1A. Nash won multiple MVP's but was not a 1A. Original argument was that the Knicks need a 1A to get to the next level. Brunson was brought up and was then dismissed for being small. Point should have been that he was not a 1A.

    FWIW, I like Brunson and think the Knicks not taking the next step has more to do with his supporting cast. Not sure if it is going to take getting someone better than Brunson to do that. Getting more production from the other supposed stars like Randle and Barrett is.

    Pelicans have won 5 of their last 6. They just tromped the Cavs last night. This Sirius radio crew sounds like they'd rather drum up fake New Orleans drama, then discuss how crappy the Lakers look this season.

    WITHOUT LeBron on the road against the best team in the NBA….losing by 7 sounds about how it should have gone right?

    I expected more from a WCF team. It's not my fault the Lakers made wimpy moves in the offseason. Anthony Davis is gonna get worn out carrying that squad.
