I refuse to believe he had 3 rebounds. Unless every rebound was an immediate putback.

Yeah terrible call, but what's happening in the bottom right corner?

Give up a 21-1 run to end the game.

Kuz steps out of bounds on final possession.

Poole just... doesn't hustle and lets the Raps bleed almost the entire clock in the backcourt.

This team cannot be real.

-28 in a 4 point loss is nasty.

Gutsy comeback from the Thunder, but some god awful officiating kinda ruined the game. But both these teams are looking great. SGA and Mitchell were absolutely elite.

People underrate the rest of the East. Celtics and Bucks are 1 and 2 of course, but people act like there's no chance anyone else can be in the ECF. I'm not even talking about the Heat here. Celtics are very vulnerable to injuries, with an injury to any of their top 6 (outside of maybe White) being gameover against a great team due to a lack of playoff level rotation players. Bucks also are remaking their team with a new coach and loss a lot of what made their defense so elite, while also having very questionable depth. One of Miami, New York, and Cleveland have a decent shot of making it to the ECF and being one injury away from being propelled into the finals.

Honestly, without the Zaza stuff he probably still has a similar career, he was already injured in that game and even without Zaza his legs would still have the structural problems, it would probably just be a different catalyst.

Probably 7 chips. It would take a lot for them to win '95, but maybe Bulls pull of a trade or FA signing with MJ there that changes the direction of the dynasty.

Big time. Having a bag is incredible in isolation and great for stars, but what more valuable, Lou Williams bag or Shane Battiers defense? Having an aesthetically pleasing game is wonderful, but it doesn’t drive winning like other things do. There’s 1 ball, and unless you’re the star you have to be able to provide value without it.

Basketball wise it's a massive Thunder W so far and will only get better, but it changed the Clippers forever. They're getting FA, they're looked at as a good organization, and they make the playoffs (or are close) every year. Outside of Lob City, Clippers had been a joke their entire existence, and becoming an actual respected NBA team is worth whatever basketball consequences are down the line.
