I don’t really get this move from Detroit. I guess they are trying to bring in a star to the new downtown arena, which I can understand. But don’t think this makes them better at all and mortgages some of the future.

Definitley doesn't make them better, but it does bring some excitement. I bet the Pistons and their fans will not be fans of this trade yr 3-4 when they're paying Blake a ton of $$$ and he's not playing and they haven't been better than a 6 seed.

They decided this is the year they needed to go all-in to grab that eighth seed with gusto!

Did I hear correctly he’d be making $37 and $39 million each year in a couple years?

Correct.

Harden goes 60/11/10

5/14 on 3’s but 17/18 ft

Crazy how big NBA guys are. Had Kevin Garnett on the set with Ryan Howard and some of the angles made Howard  look like Kevin Hart 

If some way the Cavs could get Kyrie Irving I think they clearly would be the frontrunner in the East

Didn’t realize McCollum scored 50 and didn’t even play in the 4th

Blake Grifin with 24/10 and the debut Pistons win 

So I'll never understand this. Toronto inbounding the ball down three with 2.7 seconds left. They have to go length of the floor. Rather than keep someone back they send everyone down the court and the 3/4 court pass is easily stolen and game over. What are the chances you can throw a 3/4 court pass that's caught cleanly and able to get off a good look.

Dumb with 2.7....I’d rather a guard shoot a 40 foot shot

Donovan Donovan Donovan...damn

Down 28-9 at the end of the 1st. Then ended up winning. RoLo went off on a ref and got ejected, having to be restrained by coaches and teammates. This seem to be when the game turned around in the Kings favor. The Bulls were already without Markkanen and losing Lopez didn't help at all. In the end though, the Bulls were the one that actually won because they are in full rebuild/tank mode and losses against bad teams only help. 

If the Bulls actually won then I lost because for some reason I like watching the Kings. I catch a lot of their games which are typically losses so it sucks when I miss an impressive, come-from-behind win. 

Porzingis out with torn ACL

4th player from LeBron's team that he drafted for the ASG, Love, Wall, Boogie and now Porzingis. Wonder who's next. 

Here's hoping that Porzingis can bounce back next season, really like his game.

When Paul George is playing like he was 4 years ago, OKC are very good. He has been on a tear recently. 

Cavs - TWolves may have been game of the season. Only appropriate the second game of the double header was San Antonio winning by 50 or whatever it will be.

I figured he would finally find his way with OKC.  So many hot take idiots in the NBA calling for PG to get traded early in the season. 

I think with the Lakers clearing this much room for this upcoming off-season shows that LeBron has given magic his word he is coming to the Lakers this offseason.  

Print the shirts!!

I’m watching the game on league pass and can’t believe how empty it is.
