Sengun pulled a Jokic

Toronto heard the score from Boston game and trying to eliminate us by losing hard i guess

Ok, that is enough Nets, you can stop now. Seriously…

Thank you O’Neal!

Celtics hunting for both Beasley and Lillard and getting what they want. Tatum’s shooting is off and he is not 100 percent (ill) and the passing is sometimes sloppy but the offensive sets are great, playing on Bucks’ weaknesses up to now. On the other hand Bucks are just trying to shoot their way out.

Cleveland bigs literally doing nothing at all in this stretch. Greg could be more useful if they don’t even get the easy rebounds.

Craig Porter is the best two-way contract I have watched this year. Jackpot there. (Of course need to see some more games but this one is assuring.)

The game bounced out with the ball in that Grant shot. İf Grant hit a decent amount of his open shots, this game would be different.

I don’t like Luka whining at all, but he has a point this time. This is one-sided whistle when it comes to fouls.

Dallas should keep Grant on the court as much as possible when Giannis is on the court.

The rumor is Al said KP to stay at home because he will take care of Philly that he hates so much.

Basing this discussion on both how big the field is or how many players are on it are reductive. I agree the the impact of any agent is always in realation with time/space context but those views just counts out how much micro management is needed in basketball coaching. The space, the time of the game and the number of players might be smaller compared to other games but they are actually extended by many rules, restrictions, regulations. I mean, no coach in football (soccer) needs to think on seconds and decide spesific lineups for those seconds. A basketball coach has to focus on every inch and every second and they are expected to draw plays for those while deciding which player will be on the court or of the court throughout all of those. And i am not even talking about getting the rotation right not for a game but doing that in line with a general strategy for a season. Micro management on time, plays and rotation makes it more interactive, so much that one man can’t take it all and the other coaching stuff are usually more active in a game compared to the other sports. I don’t necessarily “one single headcoach” is more important compared to the other sports, but I agree with Silver here is coaching (and gameplay) in general is underrated among NBA fans and media.

I am looking how every Nuggets player knows their role, how they play as a well oiled machine, how their two top guys act so coordinated and how their top guy sees the floor, controls the pace and makes the right decision most of the time… I don’t know, I am not seeing much hype in the media but they might be favorites. This might be hot take of course, how did they do last year?

Once again this year, NOP are a force in the West with Zion and Ingram on the court. Top 3 or 4 and real noise in the playoffs are at sight if both play somewhat a whole season. Just like the last year, of course.

That is a rookie choice from Maxey
