    Nets are about to be 1-5.

    Sixers trailing the Bulls, but it's still on the 3Q.

    Nets suck, Lakers suck, Sixers suck.

    This super team shit ain’t going to well for teams. I wonder if it will make franchises have a second thought about mortgaging any kind of future for super teams

    I am a happy fucking boy when the Lakers and/or the Nets lose, pretty much the same for the Sixers.

    Those stars arent leaders. Period.

    What are people’s takes on the Nets? They have the worst record in the East and they’re healthy. Will they make the play-in?

    Pelicans are going to be unreal if they get Wembenyama. Talk about an organic superteam.

    Dude, you can’t rely on dude that’s been married for two decades and still “sitting on the bench”. He knows what he’s learned through life experiences.

    Just saw the Dennis Smith Jr. highlights from tonight.
    So very happy to see he got another chance, this time with Charlotte.
    One of the nicest guys, and a very solid addition to any team.

    This Hawks-Bucks game is kinda fun to watch. The Hawks have put together a pretty good roster. Couple of explosive backcourt scorers and A LOT of length.

    We didn’t have space to keep him, but I’m a definitely a fan and was surprised he hasn’t had more/better opportunities.

    Barkley said that the other night and it really got under Klay's skin judging by the Warriors' postgame presser after the Heat game.

    Sucks Grizz and Jazz are playing each other twice. They are both right behind us.

    The crowd in Utah is loud for a tanking team.

    Memphis has 2 rookies playing in this game, Kennedy Chandler, and David Roddy who is finishing the game.(edit roddy is out with 2:40 left).

    Wow. Kelly Olynyk hits a wide open 3 to take the lead against Memphis. Wide open.
    After a Memphis miss, Beasley hits another 3-pointer and wiggles his butt. Utah up by 4 with 22 seconds left.
    Edit: Memphis throws the ball out of bounds on their next possession. Utah ball with 18 seconds left up by 4.
