ESPN also kept pushing the "Luka will force his way out and will be the first rookie contract player to forgoe his extension." And then...that didn't happen. No one turns down that first extension.

Someone had to eat the 20pt Dean Wade quarter I guess.

e: if you count the Garland missed layup as an assist due to a putback dunk, the Cavs didnt miss a shot for the last 7+ minutes I think

All days are nights to see till I see thee; and nights bright days when dreams do show me thee.
Ok, so there's that little mic that the refs use when they announce a challenge/flagrant whatever, right? Is there any sort of kill switch on that or if you push down the little button do you just get piped right into the arena/TV feed?

What I'm asking is, is it in play that Pat Bev will run over and use that mic to plead his case about a foul?

Yeah I'm a patreon to that one too . Its very good but I miss the basketball focused banter on that wavelength.

Also Mazzulla would definitely win most fuckable coach this time around.

I had a random thought tonight, how advantageous are corner 3s vs above the break if you count all the foot-out-of-bounds turnovers in those situations as missed shots?

I know. I'm saying they will play because they're on the report nearly every game and generally play. The report is not indicative.

Do Portland fans like Simons? His numbers look alright but the team obviously isn’t good right now. But some knuckleheads on one of the Ringer podcasts said he should be a 6th man long term which seems like underselling him a bit.

On a good team he might be. He's a bucket but I also think has abysmal defensive stats, like around worst in the league. He's also older than people think, turning 25, which is the same age as Colin Sexton who I feel like a lot of people had written off a year or two ago (and has played really well in Utah).
