I will say this about the NBA in-season tournament. It's done the impossible in the first year. It made Celtics fans root for the nets (thanks to the nets win but failing to beat the Celtics Point Differential, the Celtics qualified for the IST Quarterfinals.)

The point differential aspect also let teams go full Belichick and run up the score without worrying about Disrespecting The Game

yeah, when I was catching up on the game, they were up 30 mid fourth and I was like "JOE, what the gently caress, only 9 players have played? Haven't you heard of GARBAGE TIME? If you're not going to play them now, when are.. oh.. wait.. In season Tournament. Never mind"


and yes, Hack-a Drummond up 29 or so is funny.

Next year, if Drummond is still on the Bulls, folks should do a 50/50 lottery, but instead of a cash prize, you get to play that game and foul Drummond six times.

They still have some flaws specifically at point guard but I’m extremely happy about the never ending parade of good wings they can throw out there. Jaquez is a baller, Martin didn’t turn back into a pumpkin, Robinson and Herro are both having career years, and even loving Josh Richardson and Kyle Lowry are making major contributions. There’s an outside chance Jovic plays himself into the rotation as another big playmaker but that’s realistically not going to happen.

Wolves keep stacking up good wins against quality opponents. They are legit.

Also I heard Ant got hurt, is it bad?

He was out on the bench and walking around in the fourth so hopefully just a stinger. He was in a ton of pain when it happened though so I don't think we'll really know for sure until tomorrow.

He went down hard on his hip. He came back to the sideline, I'd guess it's a solid bruise, probably not anything major.

He's really good at defense, offense fell off in LA and it didn't come back...until tonight.
