And then he messes up again failing to hit the rim.

Massive loss by the Spurs to the Lakers in SA.

Spurs could really miss the playoffs.

 

[The Night King]

Didn't think this Laker team had in them to come back and win this game, especially with two starters out but they keep surprising me. 5 in a row! How about you that Ball boy...

 

[darko]

Rockets may never lose again.

 

[Dominator13]

If I was Magic Johnson, I’m not so certain that I would break the bank on max salary players anymore. That core can grow into something special on their own at a fairly reasonable cost. If they could get a shooting guard and decent centres, great, but that’s about the only additions I would make.

 

[Voight]

That was the Lonzo Ball we all knew.

 

[Duke33]

Rockets may never lose again.

Seven of their next nine are on the road, wouldn't surprise me if they dropped a couple in there.

 

[tony d]

Yeah, the Rockets have had a good run this year but I do expect them to lose a game soon. Maybe this Friday vs. the Raptors.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Grizzlies lose a 14th straight game. 14!!! That is nearly 20% of a season. They had an 11 gamer earlier this season.

I am in awe of their tank. And they desperately need a high end young player, so they need to keep losing.

jesus

lillard has been a lakers killer since day one when he ran into steve nash and pretty much ended his career. guy just torches the lakers everytime they play

 

[tony d]

Lillard is a good player. Him and Mccollum are a good 1-2 punch at guard for Portland. Going to be fun to watch that team in the playoffs.

he's far more than just a good player

 

[dahrougem2]

Blazers don't scare me. It's the same song and dance with them every year. Two man show that won't be able to get past the better all around teams come playoff time.

 

[donghabs98]

Full credit to Davis, he said he would go full Westbrook to carry the Pelicans into the playoffs and he's doing just that.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Oh boy.

 

[darko]

he's far more than just a good player

He's a star.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Another clinic put on by LBJ.

 

[The Night King]

 

[Terry Yake]

honestly not sure how that's even possible

 

[Del Preston]

Jaylen Brown just took an awful fall.

 

[darko]

Bjelica. What a player.

 

[Voight]

I feel bad for Lillard because while he is a top 5 PG, he plays in Portland so you literally never praise about him.

 

[Voight]

Oh boy.

Simmons Curse in full effect

The Rise of Anthony Davis

 

[tony d]

What @Voight said. Lillard's such a good player but plays in a small to mid market. Him and McCollum are a good 1-2 punch for Portland.

 

[Terry Yake]

lakers sign derrick williams to a 10 day contract

which means BI likely is going to be out longer than they thought. of course, thanks a lot justise winslow.

i'm kind of surprised williams's career turned out the way it did. i really thought he'd have a successful career but that #2 overall curse
