    Lol "the carry rule came because of Allen Iverson"

    What the ****, when does Hollins think basketball was invented??

    I think on key possessions like those last two for Memphis you put Eason on Morant or even Ego, give him some resistance there as he just did whatever he wanted to those last possessions.

    Not bad. We'd be up by 20 if you kept Gary and JC on the bench. Just stick with the top 8 guys until Tate returns.

    Our new sideline reporter looks like an ex jersey shore extra.

    Eason would have probably been better

    I knew Green would hit that! Man this kid is so much fun.

    Btw I'm tired of these carries and palming of the ball, imagine if MJ would've been allowed to. Guards and wings have it way too easy with these referees and leeway with the rules.

    The NBA definitely tightened up on carrying post AI. (I’d add SF3 to that too)

    Sengun haters should stfu. Man is putting in da work at 20 years old.

    Steve Adam is out there no? Big Ole Adam should have bullied sengun around but grizzlies looks like it's the ja morant show only

    All the kids looking good today. Jabari has been great on defense. Sengun scoring in the pain. Green looking like an elite scorer. KPJ doing this thing.

    Rockets 70-62 at the half. Green and KPJ dropped 31 points in just two quarters!

    That first half felt long...Hard fought battle...

    In a couple of years these Rockets are going to be an absolute menace.

    If the Nets mess around and fall apart, look out.

    Just because a player is great at offense you still put your best defender on them to try and slow them down.

    If Eason stops a drive for even a bit it gums up the play and has him rethinking what to do next instead of just getting in the lane doing whatever he wishes to do.

    He said Iverson was famous for the same overuse as JA

    Jalen and KPJ needs to watch ja tape. he finds he's corner guys all the time.

    If Ja is able to carry the ball just promote him to commissioner
