Great to see OKC fight it out.
Would be nice if the Blazers had one or two more defenders.

LAL deliver Portland a comprehensive beatdown. They jumped out fast and never let the Blazers into it. To make matters worse, Dame left the game with a knee problem. He is being worn down by the play in process and now having to face LA. LA should close this out in 5 now

Probably one for the BLM thread, but apparently several NBA teams are talking about sitting out the playoffs due to the latest police shootings. Fred Van Fleet was advocating for it.

Considering the overwhelming majority of the players in the league are black, they take the issue very seriously. And it happened in Wisconsin so the Bucks' home state. I guess by defaulting the game goes to the Magic? Lakers are due up later, will be interesting to see if they follow suit

Others can trivialise BLM but these players clearly feel there is still a big problem in the US. Inside all of the confusion and the bandwagon jumpers there is a real message in there

@canefan I think you just need to separate the movement from the sentiment
Yes. As with many causes people jump on whose motives and goals may not be as pure as the original message

I was just reading an article on ESPN about PG. His on-court struggles have been related to off-court issues dealing with the NBA bubble.

He was pretty candid in his post game interview yesterday and said as much. Said he was in a dark place.
