    Nets beat the Warriors in a shootout as KD returns to the Bay area.

    Balanced scoring from the Nets' starters and shooting 54% from the field.

      Apparently having Wiggins be the tallest guy in your team for the last 7 games isn't so good for winning, who knew?

        Unfortunately no one in their G League team is worth bringing up. They have their 3 tallest - Wiseman, Looney and Chriss all out at the same time.

          A super aggressive Ben Simmons scores 42 against the Jazz. It was an interesting game with the 76ers looking the goods in the 1st without Embiid.

          Then Jazz went on a tear with Clarkson (and Ingles) for the next two quarters. Then in the 4th the 76ers looked like they could peg it back but then the Jazz were too clinical to close the game out.

          I’m not a Jazz fan, but they do play decent team ball. Playoffs will be interesting after last years disappointment.

            Draymond Green did not miss in his press time yesterday did he?

            And you know what? He's got a point. I had a crack at Harden forcing that trade, but i never say shit when a team just openly tries to move someone.

            I'm not even close to the point where i am advocating the players have more control, in fact i wish contracts were worth more when it comes to breaking them early. BUT, i also think the same should apply the other way.

            I don't have even the foggies clue how the mechanics of that would work, but i know i hate the current system.

              I dont think there is a solution. Players and teams will often have conflicting interests. No different from football teams sitting their players during trade negotiations to avoid injury risk

                Simmons is super grumpy that Devin Booker is honing out his ex Kendall Jenner and they're now Instagram official.

                        @Bovidae some interesting data but not surprising given I’ve seen many kids (and even adults) wear the Ball Wollongong jersey.

                        Also Ball’s jersey isn’t available in stores like Rebel Sport or the local sports shop like Lebron or Simmons, that they have to go to NBA store to get it.

                          Speaking of your Suns, what a second half from Harden and the (KD and Kyrie-less) Nets today to be the Suns after the Suns dominated the 1st.

                            watching the Lakers v Nets game

                            When you are used to watching the NBL with its "all hustle" style, NBA defense is so shit at times.

                            The Nets had the ball, Harden kinda jogged in to the arc then casually dumped the ball backwards to an unmarked Net who drained an unchallenged 3 while the Lakers all sort of stood around and watched it happen.

                            I get that they play a lot of games, but players take a lot of plays off at one end too.

                            holy fuck! and then then you watch guys with big names draw the softest fouls!

                              This game is LBJ v a team in white spamming 3s

                              LeBron's spin and fadeaway is fucking lethal.

                                @mariner4life it’s all upper body strength on LBJ’s fadeaway too. Amazing athlete.

                                  Shit game. I bet on LBJ getting a 30 point TD, didn't think they'd get blown out and Lebron would sit half the 4th

                                  Nets have so much shooting it's just ludicrous.

                                    I see Roberson is now at the Nets. He was always an important part of the OKC team so hopefully he gets back to his pre-knee injury form.

                                      And they’ve picked up Iman Shumpert as well.

                                        Man, just watched that Nuggets vs Cavs game and Jamal Murray went into video game mode. Was like the playoff games in the bubble. Scored 50 on only 25 shot attempts (8-10 from 3 and 13-15 from 2) and not one FT attempt. He scored 30 in the second half and hit some tough shots too. He’s got one of the sweetest fadeaways too.

                                        RJ got a decent run too. Still looks like he’s trying to find his role in a team stacked with quality guards.

                                          @shark your Suns had themselves a 4th quarter. I actually stopped watching after 3 and then when I saw the final score went back and watched it. CP’s influence was huge and Suns just made bucket after bucket. Pelicans were basically unstoppable offensively in the first 3 and then Ingram, Ball and Zion just went quiet. Good win by the Suns
