Dolfan in NYC Posted February 21, 2023 Posted February 21, 2023 Okay, look... If you had told me at the beginning of the season that it was gonna be weird, I'd say... Eh. But.... The Warriors out of the playoff seeds and Sacramento as current Western 3? Lord. Well here we go again...
Zimbra Posted February 21, 2023 Posted February 21, 2023 The Bulls are giving up on the season and shutting down Lonzo Ball to deal with lingering injuries. They're also waiving Tony Bradley to sign Patrick Beverley.

I'm not exactly a Bulls fan or anything, or for that matter a fan of his family, but damn were they not a different team for a while there with him on the floor. It really sucks that things are turning out this way for him.

To make it even stranger, the Warriors intended starting lineup (Steph/Poole/Klay/Dray/Looney) has been by far the best five man unit (minimum 300 minutes played together) in the league this year. Outscoring opponents by almost 22 points per 100 possessions.

RIPPA Posted February 23, 2023 Posted February 23, 2023 Per Shams - Quin Snyder will indeed be the new Hawks coach. The hold up is just that Snyder is currently out of the country. He and the team have met virtually and the Hawks hope to have the deal finalized "soon"
Brian Fowler Posted February 24, 2023 Posted February 24, 2023 This Sixers/Grizz game has gotten nuts down the stretch.
Contentious C Posted February 24, 2023 Posted February 24, 2023 As nuts as a squirrel orgy. Of course it'd help Philly if they hadn't been 17 down at one point to end up this way...

RIPPA Posted February 25, 2023 Posted February 25, 2023 The 176-175 final is the second highest scoring game ever Quote The Kings and Clippers scored the third- and fourth-most points in a game in NBA history, respectively, trailing only the Detroit Pistons' and Denver Nuggets 186-184 triple-overtime game on Dec. 13, 1983 as most points scored.
Contentious C Posted February 26, 2023 Posted February 26, 2023 The Sixers with their second utterly 1-million-percent bonkers finish. Celtics win and still have their number the last few seasons.
SirFozzie Posted February 26, 2023 Posted February 26, 2023 (edited) That ending was in fucking sane. Sixers shoot 200 more freethrows then the Celtics (ok, something like 25) but the C's still win thanks to Embiid taking 0.2 seconds too long to hit a 3/4 court shot. edit: This replaces this game as the craziest finish vs a Harden-team Edited February 26, 2023 by SirFozzie

Contentious C Posted February 27, 2023 Posted February 27, 2023 And Paul George just pulled an Embiid at the end of regulation against the Nuggets, in a game where LA was down by 18 in the first and didn't lead until the 43rd minute of the game.

Tabe Posted February 27, 2023 Posted February 27, 2023 Dallas blew a 27pt lead to lose 111-108 tonight. Head coach Jason Kidd was asked why he only took one timeout while the lead was slipping away and made sure to let everyone know that the blown lead absolutely wasn't his fault: Quote "I'm not the savior here. I'm not playing," Kidd said when asked why he used only one timeout in the second and third quarters as the lead was slipping away. "I'm watching, just like you guys." Good grief.

Brian Fowler Posted February 27, 2023 Posted February 27, 2023 I was able to name six of the eight off the top of my head (Wilt, David Robinson, Kobe, Booker, Mitchell, and Dame) The other two I had to look up are David Thompson and Elgin Baylor.
