Wednesday will be Kyrie Irving's first game in Cleveland since Opening Night in 2017-18: Oct. 17, 2017Irving also apologized to Nets fans for his absence, noting his relationship with the team began as a fan, and said he "just needed a pause" due to "family and personal stuff" https://t.co/U8ihyQO0T8— Marc Stein (@TheSteinLine) January 19, 2021

seems like the cavs being “mad at him for being upset” is not really an accurate way to describe what happened

kyrie oy you are not helping your casesomebody needs a 30 point game

lonnie is one of the best athletes in the league as far as guards go... he's also a really explosive jumper
skip 25 seconds into this video and watch him on the fast break pick his dribble up at the three point line take two giants steps, jump sideways from the middle of the lane and get an and 1

lonnie had 2 great games when demar was out, and he's been...kinda passive before and after that.
― trans-panda express (m bison), Tuesday, 19 January 2021 23:17 (three years ago) link
like, demar is having a career year in many respects and finally looks like someone who would justify being your team's no 1 or 2 guy, but his high usage takes away opportunities from lonnie to grow in that same shot creator role. so he ends up being a 3 and D guy which he's p good at but feels like a waste of his gifts.
― trans-panda express (m bison), Tuesday, 19 January 2021 23:19 (three years ago) link
basically the spurs have a problem of too many good perimeter players.
― trans-panda express (m bison), Tuesday, 19 January 2021 23:20 (three years ago) link
Honestly shouldn’t they trade demar
― Matt Armstrong, Tuesday, 19 January 2021 23:26 (three years ago) link
100000% sell high while ppl are convinced he can shoot 3s now
― trans-panda express (m bison), Tuesday, 19 January 2021 23:27 (three years ago) link
imo spurs should be packaging demar with a young player or 2 and 1RPs for ben simmons
― trans-panda express (m bison), Tuesday, 19 January 2021 23:28 (three years ago) link
they’re having a pretty nice season but they should trade demar, LMA, rudy gay & patty mills for the best offers they can get
― J0rdan S., Tuesday, 19 January 2021 23:31 (three years ago) link
keep patty bc he's precious. lamarcus is untradeable, they might be able to get a 2nd rounder and a bad contract in return. just let his contract expire at this pt. rudy looks nice and they shd definitely look at moving him, too. but i fear that the better the spurs do, the more theyre convinced they need to keep everyone.
― trans-panda express (m bison), Tuesday, 19 January 2021 23:54 (three years ago) link
its a catch 22. if the spurs stink its bc their vets are washed so no one will offer them anything. if the vets play well, the spurs dont want to let them go bc they want to compete. which is the perfect formula for never doing Trades.
― trans-panda express (m bison), Tuesday, 19 January 2021 23:55 (three years ago) link
they needed to trade LMA last season
― a nice controlled drift (Spottie), Tuesday, 19 January 2021 23:58 (three years ago) link
probably 2017 tbh. mighta been able to keep kawhi.
― trans-panda express (m bison), Wednesday, 20 January 2021 00:06 (three years ago) link
I have a feeling that the Spurs will be players for Jokic in 2023
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 20 January 2021 00:09 (three years ago) link
god i can only hope
― trans-panda express (m bison), Wednesday, 20 January 2021 00:19 (three years ago) link
lma is an expiring this year, doesnt that make him kinda tradeable
― micah, Wednesday, 20 January 2021 00:36 (three years ago) link
maybe to relieve tax burdens, but the 2021 FA class isnt gonna be so hot after all
― trans-panda express (m bison), Wednesday, 20 January 2021 00:37 (three years ago) link
they prob won't be able to get much but pretty much every team in the playoffs needs a 5 who can shoot i assume they could find some interest
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 20 January 2021 00:37 (three years ago) link
wd be huge if he could shoot (.442, .268 from 3)
― trans-panda express (m bison), Wednesday, 20 January 2021 00:39 (three years ago) link
he is the biggest defensive liability for the team and his shot comes and goes, but mostly doesnt go in
― trans-panda express (m bison), Wednesday, 20 January 2021 00:41 (three years ago) link
yeah lma has looked just astonishingly washed this year
― Clay, Wednesday, 20 January 2021 01:17 (three years ago) link
Campazzo is not the problem with Nuggets second unit, they just need some people who actually are threats on the pick and roll. Like Javale would actually be a big improvement.
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 20 January 2021 03:09 (three years ago) link
matt the raptors just released alex len today....
― J0rdan S., Wednesday, 20 January 2021 03:19 (three years ago) link
my take on this season is that evaluations of teams are pointless, but evaluations of players are valid and jokic is a solidly top 5 player
― k3vin k., Wednesday, 20 January 2021 04:12 (three years ago) link
Len isn’t great in pick and roll tho... I would say he’s an upgrade on Hartenstein tho
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 20 January 2021 04:22 (three years ago) link
Lu Dort is so much better on offense this season, I really think they have something special with him
― Matt Armstrong, Wednesday, 20 January 2021 14:12 (three years ago) link
lol ok
Beginning tonight, NBA teams’ security will be stationed at halfcourt for compliance of rules regarding pre- and post-game interactions, the league informed teams. NBA and NBPA agreed on players maintaining six feet of distance, refraining from hugs/handshakes, and wearing masks.— Shams Charania (@ShamsCharania) January 20, 2021

do the outbreaks really stem from how the teams interact with each other during games

nba is saying they havent traced a single case of on court transmission yet so idk what theyre up to, and neither do they

it would help with contact tracing

and quicker contact tracing = more games = profit

The refs need to get fucked in this Sixers-Celtics game. That call where Smart launches himself backward into Green at the top of the 3pt line then falls down is some bullshit.

what was green even doing back there tho questions sixers fans dont want to talk about

Danny Green is cooked, what does that have to do with anything?

Tho Smart is such a good player - I would take 3 of him on the Sixers.
