    i'd be surprised if they could get a first for him, but he's definitely a bad hombre. he has some limitations, but he's skilled, competitive, and extremely physical. as a bench forward, you can do way worse. he's definitely worth the three seconds that DFS fetched last year, for example.

    Wasn't he the one they had mic'd up and he thanks his teammates for scoring? Yea, that is pretty weird and interesting.

    Luka explodes!!!! 46 and 11!
    Rui couldn’t miss!
    Jax with the steal and highlight through the legs dunk!
    Imagine if this team was a top ten defensive one…

    we're going to miss Rui's shooting if he leaves. He has become an elite shooter.

    I’m so glad they’re on this east coast road trip. I get to watch our boys without falling asleep. Nice team win.

    Lakers go into CHI, who had just beaten the Bags. With 1:27 left i the 2nd Q, Lebron hits Rui for a dunk: Lakers up 20, 69-49.

    Another bad 3rd Q: with 6: 42 left in the 3rd, Vucevic hits a FT to cut the Lakers lead to 1, 81-80.

    I guess our guys decided at that point into 3rd, then 4th, then 5th gear. 3 mins later we were back up 11.

    Luka: 46/7/12 in 36 mins. 8 for 14 from deep. Humongous game.

    With 2:57 left in the game - already in the fridge for Lakers - Jaxson is guarding Giddy at the top of the arc, steals the ball, races on a break, and does the ball-between-the-legs thing before a thunderous slam. This is something Ayton will never do. No knock on Deandre; it's just not his style.

    I was totally shocked to look at our box score and see that we actually won the 3rd quarter by 2 points, 35-33. We were getting destroyed as we gave up that lead but then we reinserted our dominance.
