Holy hell that was the weirdest sequence I've ever seen. Wade steals the ball then BLOWS the fast break dunk.

But it looks like he's going to get bailed out by the refs with a non-existent foul lol

Dejounte Murray drafted at 29 in 2016 just had 14 pts and 6 assists in the SAS win against CLE.  (He also started the game.)

Anyone watching this Spurs-Cavaliers game?

Man I hope three years from now the C's can start to replicate the Spur's success.

Great defense, great hustle, and great shooting overall. Also no selfish ball and outstanding ball movement every possession.

All that and they just went on a 9-0 run to take the lead.

Celtics a work in progress but they are getting there.
Kawhi floats.

HUGE three from BronBron... miles out.

So conflicted about Mike Breen. He's such a Cavs fanboy, but his voice just sounds so NBAey

Leonard with a career high 39 so far.

People talk so much about the Curry's, and the Irving's in the NBA, but I feel Leonard is still underrated around the league. He is the real deal, and is a big reason the Spurs are still successful and likely to continue their level of consistency (as well as having Pop as coach as well).

Leonard is absolutely my favorite non Celtic player. Very very likeable guy.

Dude dropped heavily. He was projected 10-15. I think there were character concerns - Pop probably felt he knew how to deal with him..

Cousins needs out of there NOW.

A dribble drive from 45 feet out. Dude thinks he is the only one capable of making a shot.

His whole game/attitude would need to alter significantly if we deal for him.

Alter bigly. :)

Ha. What is he complaining about?

Cousins had 42 points.

No one else on the team had double digits in points. That's just sad..

Actually, this time he had a very legitimate excuse. He got called for a foul with 14 seconds left where he might have legitimately not even touched Wade, but Wade missed a wide open dunk, which made the refs assume Cousins touched him.

Ultimately, it didn't matter. They had the ball and the chance to score to win the game, and they turned the ball over, which led to a dunk on the other end sealing the game.

Wow lol That is tough to do.

Imagine how dominant we could be with someone like Cousins here and actual decent teammates around him.

YIKES Lakers got smushed.

Don't feel so bad about our recent struggles after watching them get taken to the cleaners.

Wow these recent two losses are really starting to hurt. Toronto about to loose its 3rd game in a row to the Suns. We could have had a lead for the 2nd seed by now.

Yep, was just going to post this. The Knicks and Trailblazers losses have been devastating.

So the Lakers are now the third worst team in the league a full game behind the 4th worst Mavs, though they have one more win due to the number of games they've played already. They're two wins ahead of the 2nd worst Heat currently, though they're tied in the standings due also having two more losses.

Prediction: LAL tanks the rest of the season hard in order to try and keep their pick for this year (protected top-3), and they end the season as the 2nd worst overall team only behind Brooklyn.
