    Lol love NBA Twitter drama. Why they would placate Aldridge over Murray is baffling to me

    They also lost like 8 in a row with Murray starting.

    Not only without Kawhi and Green, Lowry and Ibaka have been out most of the season so far.

    Raptors held Embiid to ZERO points last night!

    Watching Clippers-Mavs right now - we NEED a Pat Beverley. He is pestering Doncic endlessly.

    Pat Beverly doesn't bother anyone. He tries hard but no one cares.

    Doncic gets the Harden treatment on foul calls

    Not really. Porzingis has been rather average. Luka amazing, of course but there's no duo.

    Wiggins and KAT have been great.

    I don’t blame Spurs at all with Murray. I never seen the big deal with him he’s really overrated. Yes he’s nice defensively but his offense is trash. I can see Spurs wanting to sell high on him before the word is out he’s really not that good.

    I didn't watch the Mavs-Clippers game, but this supports my comments a few days ago that teams have been playing Doncic wrong:

    https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id...-clippers-offense-work-progress-defense-scary

    Admittedly, few teams have dual wing defensive monsters like Kawhi and George, but they played him physical and apparently took the fun out of his free-wheeling game. If it weren't for FT's, Doncic's stat line would have been of the nightmarish variety.

    We'll see if other teams succeed at playing him physically without getting in foul trouble, but the blue print has clearly been set.

    Yo did you guys hear about possible Spurs trade?? DeRozen and Murray have unfollowed Spurs and taken down all their Spurs photos. Apparently, there is a good chance DeMar is going back to Toronto which I think would be sweet. Magic may also be involved.
