    I’ve always wondered how many of Jordan’s rings would have been wiped off his record if Sabonis had come to play when the Blazers first drafted him.

    Bulls were not happy with the Raptors fake Pacers jerseys. DeRozan losing his cool here, ended up getting ejected at the end of game.

    Uncharacteristically short fuse tonight. He cursed at Coach Rajaković and was ejected after the Raptors bench demanded Siakam shoot with like 8s left up big. Points differential matters in this tournament but the Raptors had already been eliminated... not sure if DD could've known that. Ripped his jersey off in the tunnel.

    in DeMar's post game interview, he's just really frustrated the team keeps losing. Wants to string a few wins together. The Raptors were putting on a show for the ages. An embarrasing Bulls loss. Not a good game to nitpick problems in Chicago.

    Wow. Westbrook’s career is slipping away. He played just 13 minutes last night, the least of anyone on his team that played. He’s just not good anymore.

    NBA is getting wacky. There’s a lot more parity in the league than I feel like we’ve seen for a long time.

    rim pull-ups getting whistled a lot this year. Refs are getting bored and laying down the law.

    Don't worry, the league administration will snuff that out ASAP. Can't have the little guys winning on a regular basis (if at all). Silver is probably already freaking out about it.

    Really? They will snuff it out?
    The first thing they need to fix is the draft lottery, because in 2022 the first two picks went to Orlando and Oklahoma City, and both teams got really good players.
    In 2023 the first three picks went to San Antonio, Charlotte and Portland. San Antonio drafted what is said to be the best player since Lebron James.
