    Matches the eye test.

    I would like to see what the splits are like with:
    Dame + CJ
    Dame + Trent
    CJ + Trent
    Dame + CJ + Trent

    Siakam & Lowry 7/27 shooting but still gonna put 125pts on the Nets this afternoon.

    Edit: maybe a little more if they keep fouling.

    Justin Anderson trying to pump his team up at the end of the game by jawing with TD. You got blown out bud, take the L back to the hotel and think on it you bum.

    Did Toronto even break a sweat? THAT is how a good team beats Brooklyn. As long as Portland can take one from LA it won't be a complete embarrassment.

    You could draw the entirety of North America on that dude's forehead.

    Ouch.

    Also we cut him from our G-League team so no wonder he's got something to say...

    Philly has completely turned this game around.

    I don't know..... a 24 point loss probably isn't the best time to squawk.

    Kanter is playing really well. Irritating Embiid

    Who is TD?

    Defense is such a problem. Even with elite offense, we can never get separation when we give up points so easily

    Utah couldn't win with 57 from Mitchell... they are toast as he won't score like that going forward.

    Philly/Boston is the only series giving me pause on my prediction... maybe that could join Hou/OKC as the second first round series that is competitive.

    (Of course hoping I'm wrong on PDX getting beat in 5)

    I'm so glad we have Collins over Mitchell.

    They sure did break a sweat. Brooklyn cut a 33 point deficit down to 8 in third quarter.
