Lots from Zach Lowe; on the mess in LA, on the resurgence of Drummond, Trae Young and Lowry, and this on Blazers:

"Portland banishing Zach Collins and Meyers Leonard in favor of Enes Kanter. Collins will surely get another sustained chance. Kanter can score against anyone, and Portland's up-and-down bench mobs need a fulcrum.
But Terry Stotts' faith in five-man bench mobs has wavered; he now often keeps one of Damian Lillardand CJ McCollum on the floor for entire games, or limits all-bench time to only two or three minutes.

With one star on the court, Collins will be a better fit than Kanter in some matchups. He's a better shooter, and a much more reliable and versatile defender."

I wonder if Lowe realizes the correlation between Turner's injury, and Stotts staggering Dame and CJ.

Doubtful. He seems to be one of those guys who only reads box scores without the aid of context clues.

 

[Labinot41]

We are so good, we dont even care anymore about other Teams

He's in Israel too?

Hispanic history month isn't until May.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Haven't seen one for this month.

HCP is always late.

 

[PtldPlatypus]

HCP is always late.

As long as Mrs. HCP isn't "late", all is well.

Tonight’s Bucks-Lakers NBA game will feature real-time data overlays

Three visualization modes using Second Spectrum's Full Court Press will air on ESPN3.

Anyone wishing we still had an open roster spot?

Kanter is better at this point.

I am very surprised that SA bought him out with a year left on his deal (he's owed $16 million next year), since that money stays on their cap.

If only we could do the same thing to someone on our team....

Somehow he’ll end up on okc or Houston.

 

[B-Roy]

Raptors with his brother is more likely.

EDIT: Signs with Milwaukee

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Yep



Gasol v Gasol in the ECF confirmed.

 

[Pinwheel1]

Did not realize he was getting so many DNP's (coaches decision)

 

[B-Roy]

Eric Bledsoe just signed a 4 year 70 million extension with Milwaukee.

Eric Bledsoe is making the same amount as Evan Turner.

Fuck.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Pau Gasol would be perfect for OKC.

 

[B-Roy]

Hawks and Bulls are in 4OT

 

[TBpup]

Hawks and Bulls are in 4OT

Lavine with 45.....Trae Young with 47.

 

[ripcityboy]

Terry Stotts is the greatest coach that has lost an NBA record 10 consecutive playoff games.... that I have ever seen.

 

[Sarni]

I’m at Lakers v Bucks now wearing my Giannis shirt. Lakers fans are so fecking annoying. I want to watch them suffer.

 

[Titan]

Go bucks tonight

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

So Milwaukee the team with by far the best record in the NBA is beating the Lakers and is about to win. So ESPN’s main page is like 6 Laker highlights and 1 Giannis highlight.

Man ESPN is annoying...

 

[Titan]

Lol L*akers loss, Lebron heads to the tunnel alone with time still on the clock.

 

[Sarni]

Hahah feck Lakers.

 

[Pinwheel1]

2 ESPN games tonight and not one good announcer. Not that that they were horrible but still you would think they could do better.
