    Steph is on a crazy run right now. His last 9 games he has gone - 33, 42, 53, 38, 32, 41, 37, 36, 32

    He’s hit 57 3s at 47%, hit 92% from the foul line and 65% from 2s (he’s got more 2s than 3s in this stretch before anyone thinks he’s just about the 3).

      Crazy run continues today with Curry scoring 47 after hitting 11 3s in a tight loss against the Celtics in Boston.
      Draymond missed a layup very late in the game which would’ve tied it up. Kemba then goes and hits a big 3 and Warriors were chasing it in the last minute.

        the rest of that team fucking sucks, everyone knows it. so Steph is putting up those numbers while being guarded by 5 guys.

          Curry with another 49 as the Warriors beat the Sixers

          The play-ins for the West should be good fun

            And the 3 he hit on his brother to end the 1st quarter was sweet.

            Good win in Philly although they didn’t have Simmons who they usually throw at Steph for parts of the game.

            Embiid’s defence on the on ball screen for Curry was shocking

              It was so bad, couldn't believe how low he was dropping - terrified of Steph going around him, but still that's the much lesser evil - especially when Draymond is the screener and there is no need to worry about him rolling to the hoop

                  The battle for the 3rd to 6th spots in the West is very interesting. There's a possibility that we could see the Lakers vs Clippers in the first round of the playoffs.

                  I like Jokic, so I'm hoping the Nuggets avoid the Lakers in the first round.

                    I honestly feel like Spurs play an OT game every week.

                      LAL in real trouble. LBJ and A are not fit, Kuzma and many of the supporting cast are banged up too. They are looking like a first round exit (assuming they survive a potential play in), the strain of the short turnaround from the bubble season is showing

                        And very down on personnel today too against a fully fit 76ers side that had all their key guys.

                        Lonnie and Keldon played damn well. And the other Luka showed some signs. Shame they couldn’t win.

                        The Bucks v Nets game definitely had a playoff feel to it. The big name players balling out. Huge numbers from the superstars. Defensive intensity. Fun to watch.

                            Yeah, for the moment!

                            The Crusaders will - or at least really should - take out SRA and SRTT. Do I think the others can win their respective competitions? The Dees yes, but the Suns don't have the experience to make a deep, deep run. They need one more All Star or fringe All Star level player this year to get past the Nets who I think are lock down finals reps for the East.

                              @shark I'm not writing any one off just yet. Every single team seems to have some weakness they need to overcome.

                              The Lakers are cooked because Steph is gonna bounce them in the play-in (hence LeBron's tweet)...

                              The Nets are losing enough games, and having enough issues getting people healthy, to give the teams playing them enough belief they can win
                              The Lakers are really battling, have their two main players struggling after injury breaks, and seem to be hoping it all clicks come playoff time.
                              Behind both of them are a bunch of teams like the Suns, who don't seem like they have all the parts, but what they have just might be enough this year. The playoff should be great.

                                Bucks beat the Nets again, and they'll be feeling good about their impending play-offs series

                                  so something that completely passed me by

                                  Cam Oliver is playing for the Rockets. Got 19 minutes yesterday, 13 points and 3 rebounds

                                  I guess that's the last we've seen of him then...

                                    The Suns look like entering the playoffs on the back of a real bed-shitting. Dropped something like three of the last four.

                                      They're just making sure they stay in 2nd, and hoping Lakers climb to 6th. That way they get Portland/GSW (maybe Dallas which isn't so good)

                                          @shark there's some jostling going on for sure. The harder question is if you're the Lakers - do you aim for 3rd and a match up with the Clippers in R1, or do you take your chances in the play-in, to secure a series against either Utah or your Suns???
