Didn’t think Spurs make the playoffs but didn’t think they be this bad plus lost to pelicans today by like 30 points

Agreed. I thought they might be in the play-in considering the talent that they have, the coach and how they had looked in their first few games. Season went downhill fast..

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Wembanyama is the real deal, but that team just lacks talent around him. Frankly I don't even know half the players on that Spurs roster, and sometimes I see a guy and am like "wait he now plays for the Spurs?" lol. Like most bad teams though, their defense absolutely blows and it kills them most nights. They tend to give up 125+ quite a bit. Not gonna win many trying to outscore teams like that

But it wasn’t even a signing. They traded Chris Paul among numerous other assets. The trade never made any sense to me.

Down goes Philly.  They had been teeing off on the bottom-feeders of the league before dropping this one to Chicago at home.  Pretty bad loss.

Yep, their performance was greatly inflated playing four games out of five against the Pistons and Wizards, and also a game against a bad Hornets team down 4 of its top 7 players.

Wow, didn't think Canada would go to such extent and denying someone entry with domestic violence charges.

Pacers look very watered down after the IST.

Got pummeled by the Clippers tonight.

It would be pretty cool if both the Clippers and C's could maintain their winning streaks going into their game on Saturday.

Clippers have 2 road games @Dallas and @OKC
Celtics have 2 road games @GS and @SAC

Clippers would be on a 10 game streak and C's on a 7 game streak. Make a good match up on Saturday that much better.

The Detroit Pistons have just lost their 24th consecutive game.

The 2010-11 Cleveland Cavaliers holds single season losing streak record with 26.

The Philadelphia 76ers lost 28 straight games spanning two seasons: 2014–15 and 2015–16, the most consecutive losses in NBA history.

The Timberwolves are sitting at 20-5 , tied with us for the best record in the NBA. Who would have predicted that, and are they a legit title contender?

Dallas defense is getting picked apart especially Timmy Hardaway Jr and Markieff Morris. Aaron Gordon looks like he is back playing against High School competition he is so confident of beating THJ off the bounce and scoring on him.
