NBA season 2019/20
-
games are starting to get weird. Players are getting rested all over the shop. Spurs hammered the Rockets this morning, both teams resting players, but Houston resting Harden was the main difference.
-
i just saw the Suns had their players introduced by their family and friends over the screens. that was very very cool
Suns are killing the bubble!
-
The Suns, Spurs and Blazers all gunning for the 8-seed, while the Grizzlies hold on for dear life. The 8/9 play-in game has been a great idea and is giving the bubble a bit of life. Can't believe Phoenix, you have to wonder if they had started a little better (and Ayton didn't test positive) they might be up in the 4/5 seed spot.

@barbarian suns have been incredibly lucky in the bubble though, they've played so many depleted teams. Look at Philly today, they were without Simmons (season), Embiid, Horford and Harris.!!!
Hard not to think the safe teams arent just jostling for opponents

@voodoo I laughed at this from Chris Vernon, a Grizzlies commentator...

The commentators made that point last week when the Lakers and Clippers played. Provided the Clips get past their first round opponent finishing 2nd or 3rd makes no difference with no home court advantage, and both avoid the Lakers.
-
@barbarian good old Verno. I like his podcasts with KOC.
And he's not wrong! -
@Bovidae yeah, and plenty of speculation that the Clips wanted to lose to Portland the other day so they can get in the 8, given the match up issues they'd provide the Lakers.
Perhaps a stretch, but who knows
@voodoo our bet lives

This 'feud' with Skip Bayless has pushed Dame to a new level. It works for Skip too - his viewers will go up tomorrow just to get his reaction.

Dame fights with everyone because Dame is a bit sensitive

Yeah Dallas only had those G-Leaguers Doncic and Porzingis out there last week.

@mariner4life I don't think he is sensitive. I think he's just real. What usually happens with Dame and whomever he's beefing with this week is they come at him. Media asks Dame what he thinks about the words exchanged between him and whomever he is beefing with. He doesn't do the boring, tried, and true thing where they play it down or give some cryptic answers. Where the reporter is sorry they asked.
He goes right at the questions and usually delivers a beautiful answer. Then if he gets called out on social media by said beefers, as he did this past week. He destroys them.
He's easily one of my current favourite players. It's just a shame that one of his targets this week is also a fav, Paul George.

@raznomore I wish him and Jimmy butler had massive beef and played each other in a seven game series. Both step up and are dogs.
