rough game for the refs
You can't blow a whistle to stop the play, not call a foul, say you're reviewing to see if the foul was a hostile act that would merit a technical or flagrant, then say there was no infraction on the play. It has to at minimum be a personal foul if you stop play. https://t.co/2pz6XKxl9S— Jared Weiss (@JaredWeissNBA) August 1, 2020

all those techs were funny. players gonna have to bit their tongue a bit cant hide behind crowd noise and distractions in the bubble

there might be more bench techs too. definitely more opportunity for the bench to interact w/ the refs

harden now has like 24 points in a quarter where he legit fucked up his ankle

unforch for the kings, buddy hield shot like dogshit and the spurs won the game.
rly excited bc pop finally let the young fellas play serious minutes and they showed up to varying degrees.

none of their young players rn scream obvious #1 options, but the core of derrick white, lonnie, dejounte, poeltl, and keldon johnson played rly well in various combos last night. losing forbes to injury was such a blessing for them bc hes such a garbage defender that his 3 pt shooting rarely justifies his minutes.
derozan had an outstanding game. he didnt score much until the 4th bc he was in facilitator mode. played a lot of minutes at the 4. it still doesnt make sense to have him and aldridge together, but for now with LMA not playing, you can start to see some rotations that make sense.

As an aside to the giannis thing, I was once watching a Timberwolves-Sonics game around 2000 or so, and they called double technicals on Gary Payton on Anthony Peeler. But Payton had a technical already. So he begged the ref and they changed it to just a tech on Peeler. A part of me died that day.

Adebayo is such a wonderful player. Can score off ball, on ball, would work on any team

BOL BOL REGULAR SEASON MINUTES?
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 1 August 2020 17:51 (three years ago) link
i was lolling thinking about you after he turned the ball over twice in 45 seconds but we'll give him a pass on the step out of bounds
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 1 August 2020 18:25 (three years ago) link
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, August 1, 2020 1:48 PM (thirty-six minutes ago)
the growth in his offensive game has been really crazy, just completely out of nowhere. the only thing keeping him from being elite elite is being able to shoot like anthony davis, but otherwise he checks almost every box you would want for a modern 5. can legitimately D up 1-5, is a creative and sound playmaker in transition, with touch around the basket and a really consistent floater type game. i just love watching him... the way he moves his feet at his size is wild
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 1 August 2020 18:31 (three years ago) link
Absolutely unreal pass by Bol

Like that out of bounds call on Bol. That can’t happen. He didn’t even move his feet

well he went off for 20 in the quarter so fair play to him
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 1 August 2020 19:42 (three years ago) link
bol is obv very uniquely skilled for his size and has a good feel for the game, but he's gonna have to play a lot more before he can contribute consistently in real games over real minutes
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 1 August 2020 19:43 (three years ago) link
when he drove to the rim on butler in the first half he got ripped immediately, that kind of stuff. malone won't tolerate him getting punked by vets in important minutes, which would inevitably happen.
― J0rdan S., Saturday, 1 August 2020 19:44 (three years ago) link
Offensively he’s clearly a PROBLEM, defensively he is a QUESTION
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 1 August 2020 19:53 (three years ago) link
i think it makes sense for them to give him some run in these games when jokic is off the floor and the other team has backs up in. i don't think he's ready to be playing w/ 8 or 9 other starters on the floor even on offense, but i could see him torching some back up big men over the course of a few minutes like boban does every once in a while
