Doncic just completely left Murray for an open three with the game on the line.  He’ll never win anything of consequence until he improves on that end.

And as I type that, Denver does the same.  Basketball!

What an ending.  Kyrie with a running left-handed 18-foot floater to win it.  Ridiculous shot.

Denver goes down!

That was an awesome game!

Big win for Dallas too considering play-in scenarios. Suns, Mavs and Kings pretty much tied between 6-8. Warriors and Lakers are pretty much together in the 9-10 bracket.

It was like a playoff game!

Just saw the Kyrie game-winner. My goodness. An off-hand floater/push shot from the free throw line? Hate to say it, but that has to be one of the best game-winners I've ever seen, especially given the opponent and playoff implications.

If he can do it against the Lakers during a play-in game or something then I'll be ecstatic

Did anyone see the game?  They held Jokic to 16 pts on 16 shots.  What was the scheme against him?  It seemed to work.  Or was Jokic just off?

Somehow reminds me of Magic's shot in 87 final. Amazing shot.

That sky hook like shot by Magic is still very vivid in my memory. I  thought Larry was gonna win it with the final. It was close.

Deandre Ayton says part of slow start this season was due to sleeping on air mattress 'for quite some time'

Earlier in the season, Deandre Ayton played far less aggressively. At the time, Ayton said on Thursday, he was feeling his way through the offense and playing with new players. But there was more to his struggles. “My body wasn’t just my body,” he said. “People forget the humane difference of me adjusting to everything.” That included something as routine as getting proper sleep. “Just being comfortable in waking up,” he said. “I didn’t have a bed for quite some time. I was on an air mattress. Just trying to figure this out.” – via Oregonian

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.

Why is a guy who has made $100m (with another $70m on the way) sleeping on an air mattress?

LeBron James allegedly spends $1 million per year taking care of his body. DeAndre Ayton spends $59.
