Pistons rout the Knicks, ending their 8-game winning streak. With Boston's win tonight, they're in sole possession of

2-seed again!

Celts also have the 4th best record in the whole league and the 5th best odds to win the title!  They just keep winning.  Crazy season.  Especially given the weird losses they?ve had (though I guess that balances out with the improbable wins).

They are averaging less than 94 points allowed the last 7 games.

As a general rule true contenders have both a top 5 offensive rating and top 5 defensive rating. They are 2nd in offensive rating and now up to 10th in defensive rating, with the 3rd best net rating in the NBA.

Jake Fischer: Giannis Antetokounmpo, according to various people with insight to this situation they believed that Giannis definitely wanted to go to Minnesota and team up with Anthony Edwards and help him get past the Western Conference Finals, a stage the Timberwolves have yet to achieve.

NBA doesn't care. Hell, Giannis is now involved with a betting platform (Kalshi) which I'd assume is a MASSIVE conflict of interest for various reasons but I guess he's allowed to do it, idk

Flaggs average over the last 10 games: 29pts/9rebs/4ast/1blk/1stl.
