Trae Young is such a poor defender that I don't think Atlanta is ever going to be a real contender with him. Tyler Herro just abused him three times in a row as the Heat jumped out to a 9-0 lead on Atlanta.


Hawks don't expect to ever be a serious contender...with Trae running the show. They are content to just be entertaining. Several NBA teams are just in the "entertaining ONLY" business...fairly easy to spot them.

Pretty sure we’re about to move in to 6th with this Mavs loss. Big game tomorrow with the rockets on a b2b

This Warriors game is better with the sound off.

half game out of the 4 seed

We'll be favored in our next 5 games, all at home.

Take care of business, win minimum 4 of them.

They could probably use him as they lack depth but he's not good, he's a below average basketball player. He had the playoff run of a few games where people got to know him and thought that's the player he is. But he's not that, he's a very inefficient shooter who doesn't give you much else.

Jalen Duren has missed 19 games for the Pistons. He's back tonight, as the Pistons try to avoid setting the record and becoming the first NBA team to lose 27 straight games.

So far, the Pistons are out to a 9 to 1 lead! Is tonight the night?


EDIT: Now, the Pistons are up 20 to 7.

IF we end up trading one of our "Superstars"...I'm officially "on record" with..."find some way to get Brandon Miller...future stud." End of story.

Good trade for Toronto, OG is going to be seeking a max deal in the offseason. Barrett has been playing great this year and IQ is an underrated player

The Knicks are trading RJ Barrett, Immanuel Quickley and one second-round pick to the Raptors for OG Anunoby, sources said.

Smart move by the Knicks. Trade Barrett and Quickley while their values are high.

Toronto finally trades OG with Barnes emerging as star. Unfortunately this probably doesn't make them good enough in the grand scheme of things.

He started the season on fire from 3 but has cooled off alot lately.

He’s been the Knicks best and most consistent defender though all season

Toronto is stuck in the middle right now so they made a move. IQ is looking for a big payday in the offseason.

That's Toronto's fault for over-valuing OG and refusing to trade him while his value was at his highest. They simply waited too long and now the return doesn't move any needle for them.
