You guys see this? I was wondering why the Pelicans went from a 23 point lead with 3 minutes left to only up 4 with a few seconds left. It was because of this guy:

Missed two FT’s. Impressive couple minutes though!
 
Well that was probably the quietest trade deadline league wide that i can remember? It seems like the top 10 teams in the league are happy where they are. The Middle 10 are hamstrung by cap issues. The bottom 10 just didn't have anything anybody else really wanted?
Blazers kind of made a middle of the road Trade that helped them quite a bit.

Seth Curry was perfect for us. Pisses me off watching Simons play and we had the better version of him last year

I wish we had a suitable back up besides Simons, but Simons has at timed flashed potential and overall long term, if he’s anything close talent wise to the hype, its probably good to let him take his lumps. Experience is often times the best teacher.

by CBA rule, Portland could only pay him 3.6M unless they offered him the tax-MLE instead of Hood. Curry is making more than twice what Portland could pay at over 7.4M. More than that is Dallas gave Curry a 4-year contract at 8M/year. Blazers would not have done that

Refs for this Celtics game must be the same from the Utah game. Boston getting some questionable calls against them.
 
Yo these refs reffing the Jazz game actually must be the same ones because they just let the game play with the shot clock frozen for a good 30 seconds of play.
 
Houston just hit a game winner against Utah. Fuck the Jazz
 
Yo these refs reffing our game must be the same from the Jazz game; there’s no way they are letting us lose this.
 
Damn the Spurs are up by 22 without DeRozan but the Nuggets cut it to 4

feel bad for the Spurs but the Blazers need some separation

I know that the East is weak and all, but I feel like Milwaukee isn't quite getting the attention they deserve for what they've done so far. They're 46-7 right now, which is a 72-win pace. Sure they'll probably drop off a bit in April after they've clinched everything, but for the moment it's pretty impressive.

Maybe just as impressive is what Nick Nurse has done in Toronto AFTER losing 2 starters from an underdog NBA Championship team including the Finals MVP and perhaps best 2-way player in the league. They own the 3rd best record in the entire league. 8 of their top 9 players have missed 10 games or more already this season. 3 of their top 8 have missed 15 games or more. He has done an unbelievable job!
