That stinks, he was having a huge game.

Too bad defender was so short

It seems crazy how often this happens and is considered a flagrant - I get wanting to protect people but there isn’t much that can be done when there are size disparities like this.

Eh I mean this wasn’t accidental, one should be able to see that.

 

[Mr. French]

Steph with 11 points, 12 assists in another big W over Detroit.

Wemby went for 38.

I love this Spurs team so much. Guys are going to hate playing against Castle for years.

Cade isn’t going to deal with someone like Castle in the East. But if they ever want some sort of shot at a championship they have to get him a running mate scorer.

Spurs erase 25 pt deficit and defeat Clippers. Castle only 6 pts, but had 8 assists but he made key plays at the end. His ball denial defense on Kawhi forced the Clippers to have other players shoot. After Champagne missed both FTs with the Spurs up 1 with 12 seconds Castle tipped the rebound which got the Spurs the ball and then he got fouled. He made the front end of FT to put Spurs up 2 with 6 seconds left. He missed the second FT but got his own rebound and scored to put the Spurs up 4 with 3.8 seconds left to seal the win for the Spurs.

Tonight's Trailblazer Season Ticket Holder of the Game said his two favorite players ever are Buck Williams and Donovan Clingan.

Spurs look like a machine, looking forward to see how they handle their first playoff run together

Castle has done a good job of shooting the ball better from three almost every month this year:

October - 33%
November - 17%
December - 29%
January - 32%
Febuary - 35%
March - 42%

Still not good but improvement.

 

[HCCForever]

Unfortunately Brown received two technicals and was ejected. We’ll see what Tatum can do.

 

[superjohn]

I can't even watch the games because the local news has been on NBC the entire time for tornadoes in the burbs.

 

[aceboon]

In non UConn pro news the Wizards are a disgrace

 

[superjohn]

Bam Adebayo has 81 points, WTF

 

[Mr. French]

83 for Bam lolol

 

[Inyatkin]

83 for Bam lolol

Double his career high. Insane

 

[boog204]

83 for Bam lolol

On 20/43 from the field, 7/22 from 3, and 36/43 from the line. Sometimes the NBA is just dumb.

I like Bam Adebayo and he's a nice player but there's something very wrong with the NBA if he scores 83 points in a game. Over half the league is tanking but did the Wizards play 7th graders tonight?

Terrible look for the NBA. They need to do something because the league is comical right now.

They showed quick highlights during the Siena game and Tim Welsh said, "Does that even count?"

If he can keep the Jan Feb numbers and shooter 33-34% he'll be alright. That's enough to keep em honest

 

[Mr. French]

Steph with 15, 9 boards and 6 assists - he also caused the reaction by Jaylen Brown to get tossed lol

Objectively it didn't look that bad, it looked like Brown got the tiniest little nudge and tried to sell it by flopping out of bounds and then got mad at the no call. It certainly COULD have been called but it wasn't that egregious.

 

[Mr. French]

Now 18 points after banging his 3rd 3, 3/8 tonight.

I am watching the Siena game and saw during halftime that Bam Adebayo was at 79 pts and thought the same thing. Bam is a very good player with a lot of skill, but he has no where near the skill of Kobe Bryant who had 2nd place with 81 pts in a game. I was thinking, "WTH happened in that Wizards game?".
