    If Washington beats Toronto, will this be the earliest time in NBA history that every team has at least one Home loss.

    Which is weird cause it looked like this would be the most uneven season in NBA history after more stars moved east.

    Just verified with Basketball-Reference:

    If TOR loses to WAS at home today, this will be only the 2nd time in league history (first in 47 years, 1970), that every team has lost at least one Home game by Game 9. This makes me feel a little better about our 2 homes losses vs 6-1 road record, wrt to the Riley stat (Road Wins v Home Losses)

    well, a good time to remind yourself of this fact is the next time you are nearly 100% convinced of something, perhaps that earth is round or something similar

    Cleveland is beyond trash lmfao. LeBron has to score 57 points to win a game by single digits lmao.

    Morey should be on his toes for the inevitable fire sale. I'll take one Derrick Rose for cheap or maybe we can nab Love.

    Clippers' defense has been atrocious so far, and Heat are missing Waiters...

    It seems to me like Dragić assumed more of a scorer role this season in favour of facilitating. James Johnson is a nice point forward to run 2nd unit, while Dragić provides offensive boost alongside Waiters. Miami has enough scorers, but most of them are very inconsistent (Olynk, Tyler Johnson among others).

    This proves that if the Cavs don't play defense, they can lose to anybody. I assume they will turn it up a notch in time to win, but you can tell they really don't care out there.

    Snap poll: How many consecutive layups will the Cavs give up to Schroder?

    Edit: That 3-pointer was cold.

    I still expect the Cavs to win, but gee they look out of sorts and not meshing as a team. Lucky Wade has kept it within range

    De Andre Jordan's field goal percentage and scoring has dropped away after Chris Paul has left
