Kuzma with a monster game as the 1st option again showcasing his talent.  Opposing teams should make "Free Kuzma" shirts.
2023 Historical Draft - Brooklyn Nets - 9th pick

Bigs - Pau, Amar'e, Issel, McGinnis, Roundfield
Wings - Dantley, Bowen, J. Jackson
Guards - Cheeks, Petrovic, Buse, Rip

Another Sixer loss to the Mavs.

Almost all teams in the NBA can beat the Sixers and the Celts can't?

Horford must be wishing he remained in Boston or that Theis will guard him every game he plays.
That's what amgers me most. I think the Sixers got into our heads a bit, everbody is nervous and missing shots left and right

I find this Lakers team the most likeable LeBron-led team in a long time. I never warmed to his Cavs teams during his second tour there. His Miami teams were very good but always felt like they were underachieving relative to their talent. His early Cavs were somewhat likeable with Big Z and Varejao but not much else.

This Lakers team though -- I am loving watching old LeBron outmaneuver opposing defenses. I love his intent on passing and setting up the offense. I am a huge Anthony Davis fan (most talented player in the league today). I love Rondo. I love Dwight Howard. I very much like Danny Green. I like Avery Bradley. Lukewarm on JaVale McGee but I respect his late career resurgence after disappointing as a youth and then suffering serious injury problems. I like Kuzma.

There is just a lot of fun things on that team. Very likeable.
Cool it a bit, you're still on a Celtics forum. It's nauseating

And when they played against Embiid, I definitely thought they stopped wanting to take shots in the paint. I think they’re capable, but there’s a mental hurdle to get over.

Brooklyn looking good in one quarter (second quarter has been tied up) against the Hawks without Trae Young is not something to write home about

The funny thing is, if you don't bring Kyrie up, there is a good chance no one would have. So while you're trying to stop Kyrie hate posts, there is a good chance you are propagating them just by bringing the subject up.

Jokic and the nuggets vs. Kawhi & PG13 and the Clippers at 8pm.

Hoping to watch most of it before bed, should be a good one. Jokic and Kawhi have been getting daily all star votes from me since I don’t care to vote for any Lakers.

Spurs just went on a 17-0 run to get back in this game against the Raptors. It's the most boring 17-0 run I've ever seen, but I'm still happy with the result!

The Morant and Valanciunas PnR is really quite something.

Look like SA will hang on after giving up the lead. Up 4 now with 9 seconds.

I jinxed. Still in play.  1 pt gam with 4 second left

SA hangs on to win.

Don't look now but after a ridiculous hot streak, the 2nd seed in the Western Conference is the Utah Jazz. Adding Bogdanovic to that team has made a huge difference, giving the Jazz a real #2 offensive option.

Interesting to note that in BOTH conferences, the #2-#6 seeds are all just separated by 3 games  :o

Both conferences also have the #1 seed (LAL, MIL) up 5+ games on the rest and look like they'll cruise to it.
