By unknowntank so hard philly, thanks though now we move to 2nd with detroit win.
Never underestimate these Pistons.
I'd say Mark Jackson will never get another head coaching job, but the Lakers will probably have an opening within a year or 2.
Wiz should trade a late 1st for monroe
This draft class and Ernies scouting...I'd rather have Monroe as a backup center even as a rental.

Is SVG a fraud or is he stealth tanking?
Still early as he has time make roster moves and make the team his own, but Pistons shouldn't be this bad. #DwightWasRight

Knicks are 1.5 games ahead of Philly now.
i knew they would be bad but that is like a whole new level.

Former Orlando Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said he wants all teams to try to win every game.
"Not what Philadelphia is doing right now, which is embarrassing," Van Gundy said in a panel that current Philadelphia 76ers general manager Sam Hinkie attended.
"I don't care, [commissioner] Adam Silver can say there's no tanking or what's going on – if you're putting that roster on the floor, you're doing everything you can possibly do to try to lose."
David Lee is never starting for The Warriors ever again. He's a way better player than Harrison Barnes.

Same principal.
By giririsssI don't think so, because no one thought he would really take the qualifying offer. Detroit's bargaining position was much stronger before that. Now they'd be lucky to get anything for him.By ForeverBy giririsssIf all it took was a late first monroe would have been traded before the season.Before the season he could still have been sign and traded, now he's a rental.

You won't even get his bird rights in a trade.
Where does Wade stand among eastern conference guards? I mean his offensive stats are really great despite having despite having no knees but the Heat have one of the worst defenses in the league.
So idk where to rank him but seriously look at his stats.
25.2 PER
24/6.6/4 per 36 mins on 54%FG
Highest AST% of his career
Only thing bad is his free throw shooting and as always, his three point shot.
Hes lazy on defense but our entire defensive scheme doesnt fit our roster at all.

The Pelicans are so terrible on defense, please fire Monty Williams already so we can see if it's actually something AD needs to improve on or if Monty is just trapped in the 1980s.
Kings losing to the Magic at home is terribad. Even without Cousins, you got to win this game if you want to make the playoffs in the West.
Lack of a reliable bench of 3pt shooting kills the team without Cousins to make up for it.

Yeah I was asking where Blake Griffin was.
I just checked stats.nba.com, which is more updated. Blake is just at the edge below Harden.
Blake looked pretty good tonight against the best PF in the league.
He's still not rebounding as much as he has in the past though...

By AdamBlake looked pretty good tonight against the best PF in the league.Isn't Blake's best rebounding year still his rookie year? His rebounding rate has fallen every single year since then, too.

Dude honestly never quite lived up to my personal expectations for him...
There is doo-doo in Blake's pants. You can tell from all that brown.
Rockets have morphed into one of my favorite Rox teams since the 22 win season. Everyone play for each other.

As of Blake Griffin's 7 rebound performance tonight, there are no more career 20-10 players left in the league. This ends an unbroken chain extending to the beginning of the NBA.
thought it was interesting.
Confidence is one thing. Delusion is another.

“I think if you go back to the preseason transcripts, I said that this is the type of season that we’re going to have,” Dwyane Wade said. “This is the team that we have. We don’t have that team that can win 27 in a row right now. I’m not the kind of guy to dream that big.
Legit arguments against AD possibly being MVP that transcend stats:
Should he stay more with his man or in the paint on pick-and-roll on defense? Is his steal pursuit not worth it because he has to extend out so far to be able to steal perimeter passes that the paint is very vunerable afterward? Does he drop down enough on defense on the pick-and-roll? Does he switch onto guards too much on defense considering that it forces guards onto defending big men and takes away AD's ability to protect the paint (and gives up more rebounding opportunities for the other team)? Couldn't he take better angles on the pick-and-roll on defense that allow less penetration?
Kobe Stan "washemplae" arguments: He needs to shoot more fadeaways because he's only averaging 25 PPG on a great offensive team.

So guys, which tank is "better" between the Lakers and the Celtics because the Celts are impressing me right now.

I think LA's will out tank Boston due to age. Scott is gonna have Booz, Kobe and all those older guys gassed sooner than later.
Those youngins in Boston are in shape enough/young enough to give maximum effort more nights than not.

Sacramento Kings center DeMarcus Cousins has missed the past five games with a case of viral meningitis and continues to recover slowly, according to multiple people with knowledge of the situation.
…
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, meningitis is "an inflammation of the tissue that covers the brain and spinal cord."
The symptoms are often similar to those that come from influenza, and full recovery of viral meningitis typically takes seven to 10 days without treatment.
