How many times will the Lakers challenge a Crowder 3 that is his natural shooting motion and lose? I mean maybe one day they will get someone in Secausus who doesn’t understand the rule but I doubt it.
The bad challenge thing really grinds your gears. I falsely assumed that it was just a Brad thing.
No, I’m an unbiased purist when it comes to certain things. I cannot tolerate ineptitude. It’s my cross to bear.
Are the teams allowed to have contact with someone up in a booth who can see these replays? If not, I can understand we have an obv enormous benefit. If they are allowed......a) do they have one of their 97 assistant coaches up there and b) are they using these guys to properly advise them?
TLL!!
What a great freaking sports weekend so far — Sox 2-0, MFY 0-3, Tatum destroys NY, Pasta destroys NY, and now the Whining King gets smacked down at home.
Goooo Cs tonight!!!

In fairness, he was a comparatively solid 7-19 from the floor today to raise his FG% for the series to ... wait for it ... 27.4% (20-73).
Watching Randle visibly shrink in this series has made me really, really appreciate Trae Young's character - you can tell he's been waiting his whole life for NBA playoff basketball. And I don't think the Hawks have ever had anyone like that. I mean, Nique had his moments - most obviously his duel with Bird in 1988 - but he wasn't wired for the playoffs like Trae seems to be.
It really is a shame that Boban didn’t come around 20 years ago bc he is an offensive force. He just can’t play in today’s game as he makes Kanter look like Draymond on that end.
Looks like the Clippers were written off a little too early. Mavs role players outside of their Big-2 are getting smoked!
It helps when luka can barely move. Watching him gingerly walk during possessions is painful. My clipps caught a huge break.
Carlisle please pull the kid. The game is decided. Let him rest for fucks sake
If it was only Luca I’d agree. Luca isn’t even the problem...... the other 3 starters are a combined 2-15.
The problem is that the other guys are only good if Luka is healthy and playing well. He completely carries that offense, so not too surprising they're trash when he's messed up.
I’d really like to know what Dallas’ plan to surround Luka with more talent is. Zero young talent on this roster besides Luka and no real flexibility because of the Zinger contract. Cuban has a real problem on his hands.
Porzingis still has trade value to the right team. He’d be a perfect fit in Golden State with Klay returning.
Porzingis and filler to GSt for Wiseman and Wiggins. Who says no?
Sounds familiar.
Team building in the NBA is hard, except when you have top-10 players conspiring to play with each other.
