He makes every team he’s on better. I would take him on my team any day. Every good team needs a guy like him.

he's a clown. what did russ say? "he's fooled yall..." lol

he's too much for me. the ups and downs would be unbearable if things aren't working his way.
 
Norman Powell could really help the Clippers beat the pelicans if they play them.
Reggie Jackson was his usual inefficient self, 18 shots for 17 points, five assists and five turnovers.
Norman took nine shots and had 16 points.
I don't see how the clippers can reach their potential with Reggie Jackson playing 42 minutes.

Never, ever thought I would say this...
I am now an official PatBev fan...
I love the Grizz, picked them to win the West back in November when I first saw them, and been rooting for them all year.
This is gonna be a helluva series, two very cocky and brash teams who love the trash talk.
Gonna need Michael Buffer to do the PA for this one..
Let's Get Ready To Rumble!!!!!!!

Yeah, they could use a backup pg. He was one of their best players last year in the playoffs. But 42 minutes is a lot. Glad they have 2 nights off before the Pels.
 
As for the celebration...
That's how Minnesota acts anyway...They are loud...
So is Memphis.
Dam this is gonna be good.
 
they feel like we did in 2014 when dame knocked houston out.

Beating a 54-28 team, who you weren't favored to beat, with a buzzer beating walk-off three seemed slightly more celebratory than beating a 42-40 team at home at a 3pt favorite.
 
According to Ty Lue, it's literally why the Wolves won:


always have to be a little skeptical about coach-speak after a loss

but it sure does seem that NBA teams do just fine without a big C anchor in the middle....put another way, the 'modern' NBA has drawn a real weak line between 'anchor in the middle' and 'dead weight'.

that's not to say that a team shouldn't have a traditional C or two. But unless they are absolutely elite, like Jokic and Embiid, you better not commit a lot of salary to them. Better to spend it on length+agility than on mass
 
Kind of think the Cavs are going to have their hands full with the Hawks.

Edit- Maybe the Heat as well?
 
Can’t believe we traded CJ for a bunch of scrubs. You still have time Cronin to get this right.

My favorite part of this entire thing is we have an 8 year sample of CJ, we know his game in and out, and people STILL overreact to one half of one game of his.

At least pretend.
 
That Herb Jones plays like Stacey Augmon and he can shoot
 
Has it really been 64 years since the Hawks won a championship? Wow?

Josh Hart is not a scrub.
Neither is Anferenee Simons, who will benefit the most from these trades.
