    He's normally so coordinated...It was like he was stiff getting to the ball...like afraid he was going to go out of bounds.

    You’re awesome. This is EXACTLY right. Well said. Say it louder for the folks in back who think this is an all star squad.

    wow, I just looked no starter hit more than 39% of their shots..Tari was 57% (4/7) and Amen 80% (4/5)....really poor shooting.

    Suns lost to Magic...so, there's that. Also, GSW losing in 2nd to LAC...maybe they can lose as well.

    I'm already over the loss. The Haymitch of 15 years ago would have been miserable for two days at a minimum. But at this age? Eh, whatever. We got a **** ton more games.

    Just another case of prevent offense preventing wins. Up one with 45 seconds left, the Bucks have both timeouts, you have figure there is at least one more possession for the Bucks so you should run something to get a bucket instead of a bleed the clock until there is 7 seconds left on the play.

    The Rockets played too well last night, and then got ahead of themselves tonight.

    The last play where Dame scored, I think they should of thrown more at him. Had to make someone else beat them other than Dame cause that's what Dame does.

    Giannis stepping out of bounds gives me Finley and KD flashbacks. If the baseline Ref isn't going to look at the baseline. What is the point of that ref?

    Pity about the last play to Sengun. Something they probably should of saved for a more important game.

    Two games this season we have copped Ben Taylor and we have lost both.

    We could have a Scott Foster situation brewing here all because Fred called him "****ing terrible" in 2023 and Taylor has to get his revenge.

    rewatch the play. As he is throwing the ball Giannis is still next to Sengun. And then Giannis goes the other way as he’s already throwing the ball. It wasn’t meant to hit Sengun in his soft face. It was meant for Sengun to get up and get it dude. Too bad he couldn’t get up more than 2 inches of the ground and secure the ball.

    It's worth a watch if you have never seen it. Fred doesn't hold back
