    Lebron can’t layup the shoulder. I’ve had it. Can’t get that shoulder up.

    Great effort. Just came up short. But the guys played tough and hard.

    John Wall add John Wall to the list of Achilles. He was never the same. And this was after he got paid.

    great game, which Ed Malloy frankly spoiled with his open hate for Doncic. in the second half he simply didn’t whistle any fouls

    Orlando, Phoeix, & Denver - they were all missing 2 starters.

    After the 11-4 start, they're 26-20, which is .565 basketball.

    I think they'll finish in the top 6. Phoenix just lost to Chicago tonight. There's that...

    He’s been doing this a while, good way to injure someone, they need to start calling it. Smart was just playing normal defense and then Jokic goes dead weight on his back and folds him in half.

    The execution down the stretch was horrible. Luka has got to stay aggressive. Run more things through Reaves was great.

    I mean Smarts shots were wide f***ing open. On one hand you can't ask for better looks then that. Otoh and I love Marcus it's Marcus.

    You almost want your star guys taking the marginally harder shots I guess at some points

    The Lakers problems they traded Christie with Luka. Dallas gave us nothing back. We should’ve kept Christie. We have no 3-D. Nothing. Having to rely on this Marcus Smart.

    Damn. It just makes you pull your hair out.

    this same team that didn’t draft Jacquez. Wtf!!!!!!!!!

    We would have sent anything not bolted down to the floor to get Luka. Keeping AR in that deal was/is a huge W and a miracle.

    Outside of the Mavs trading Luka in general, the no AR part is the most perplexing.

    It'll be interesting to see how things go in BOS. Brown had a taste of that 1A life, and delivered. I don't think it's a secret that he's felt underappreciated there at times.

    They win the title, and unsurprisingly, the media does the whole "Tatum got his ring" thing. Brown was the ECF MVP, Finals MVP, and they haven't really skipped a beat without Tatum this season.

    There were rumors of him eventually wanting his own team, and he got a taste of that life. All this to say, I can see a world where this transition isn't super smooth.

    Just saying from a basketball standpoint. Luka and Christie is a perfect matchup, would’ve been perfect to have Christie here with Luka.
