Luka with 28 points in the first half tonight. He’s amazing.

Hard to believe he's a rookie.

How long until he's MVP?

 

[DDolla]

Amazing that a team who did not make the playoffs last year is now the West All-Star coach.

 

[B-Roy]

Funny

 

[THE HCP]

Funny

Even funnier

 

[KingSpeed]

Hard to believe he's a rookie.

once his team starts winning games?

 

[MickZagger]

I still don't buy into Denver being a contender. They'll be out in the first round.

[DDolla]

Kings are fun to watch

 

[Sarni]

Kings are fun to watch

They are. Really solid team, I hope they make the playoffs because their matchup against Warriors would be pure fun.

 

[Labinot41]

That 360 dunk from Bagley was crazy

 

[Sarni]

They aren't a contender. Nobody in West aside from Warriors is a contender really.

The Nets assigned Allen Crabbe to the Long Island Nets for practice. Was he hurt or is he just playing that poorly?

Hurt

This thread is where the Rudy Gobert pity party should be. Those posts don't belong in the Congrats Dame thread.

 

[tester551]

Hurt

emotionally? or physically?

It's my party and I'll cry if I want too.

 

[riverman]

Hurt

both

^^^ That it coincides with Layman's minutes being way up?

 

[TBpup]

Oddly enough, 15 games ago was Layman's last DNP. Coincidence? I think not.

 

[e_blazer]

Man, OKC, Spurs and Rockets with the horrible defense! Nuggets not much better.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Wizards should absolutely be tanking now.

 

[B-Roy]

Oddly enough, 15 games ago was Layman's last DNP. Coincidence? I think not.

Our schedule has been much easier last 15 games. We had a hellish schedule through December.

 

[julius]

Is that implying that Denver's defense is bad?

 

[JDC]

Is that implying that Denver's defense is bad?

Lately, yes. But not quite as bad as the ranking.

 

[JDC]

^^^ That it coincides with Layman's minutes being way up?

And Stauskas out of the regular rotation.

Meyers playing better during this stretch as well.

 

[THE HCP]

I think our strength of schedule was really low those past 15 games.

 

[riverman]

I think our strength of schedule was really low those past 15 games.

you have yet to experience the power of the HOOD!

 

[JDC]

I think our strength of schedule was really low those past 15 games.

Definitely playing a part in this.

There's been a few nice wins vs good teams though and had opportunities to win in the games vs OKC and Denver.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

WNBA, but still newsworthy IMO.
