Bulls should just fold. But, even then, none of their players should go to LeHeat.

Giannis goes off for 64 last night to get redemption on the Pacers for the in season tournament bounce. Pacers took the game ball afterwards, lol.


Draymond suspended indefinitely. Wonder how long that will last.

Bill Laimbeer is not in that? He'd be a shoo-in IMO.

Draymond reminds me of a less crazy Rasheed Wallace.

Spoelstra signed a new eight-year contract extension on Tuesday to remain the Heat’s head coach, according to a league source. The deal is worth more than $100 million, the source said. The contract makes Spoelstra one of the NBA’s highest-paid coaches. San Antonio Spurs coach Gregg Popovich (signed a five-year contract worth $80 million this past offseason) and Detroit Pistons coach Monty Williams (signed a six-year, $78.5 million deal this past offseason) entered this season at the top of that list.

LOL at Monty Williams' contract after the Pistons lost 28 consecutive games which is a record.

This is a crazy stat: Spoelstra holds the fourth-most wins by a head coach with one team in NBA history behind only Red Auerbach with the Boston Celtics, Jerry Sloan with the Utah Jazz and Popovich with the Spurs.

Bucks can get rid of this make-a-wish coach, Adrian Griffin. Guy has lost the locker room. Don't let the door hit ya in the ass on the way out.

also crazy is that Spo was going through the divorce and allegedly the Heat withheld talks until after it was settled. Now some people are attacking the ex for dropping the bag 😂

Good for Spo, secure that bag without having to give it away.

Bucks fire Griffin and pick up Doc Rivers. This should be interesting. Crazy thing is, is that the Bucks are still paying Coach Bud and now Griffin, all while picking up a new 3.5yr - 40 mil contract for Rivers. Thankfully we don't need any more players.

I mean, Rivers has proven he can win in the regular season but otherwise, I don't see him as the 'upgrade'...?

Dunno. I think the Bucks will be fine.

Going to the game tomorrow night. Hopefully they will be better off. Still wish we never got rid of Coach Bud. Last year in the playoffs he was dealing with the death of his brother. That definitely played into it.

About the only thing entertaining about the NBA recently was this jersey swap by a couple of rookies!



Anybody catch that ending of the Lakers/Warriors. I wanted a tech called on Lebron for whining about the stoppages for their busted ass shot clock not working.

Can we give Boban the MVP for hooking the crowd up with free Chick Fil'a?

Not feeling to good about this playoff run for the Bucks. We have been playing some shitty basketball lately and we have the Pacer's first. Hopefully Dame will pick up the slack with Giannis on a day to day basis and Middleton being Middleton on the bench cheerleading.

Love to see it. Lakers can get 4-0'd and Lebaby goes into hibernation to figure out what team to get traded to, to play with his below average son.

He literally made the roster the way he wanted it...no, demanded it...and it still was not undefeated and winning all them titles. Superbowl, Stanley Cup, F1 Constructor's Champ, Wimbledon, World Series...

Total failure.

Not possible. They were just being nice and letting the other team win some games. Nao, they start showing their true powers.

Too many injuries for the Heat to overcome and this wasn't the squad. Blowing the first play-in game was the beginning to the end to get matched up with the C's. C's have a clear path to the Finals with the Bucks out and NY minus Randle.
