Game 1 tonight. Anyone have a rooting interest?

He earned it. Maybe would have been 2nd team without injury but Hali deserves the bag he is going to get.

From the few instances I have seen like this, Carlisle does not believe in fouling up 3. Controversial take in today's game, but he sticks to it and got burned.

Tied at half! F*** Boston

For the people who follow this recruitment closely...how are we feeling?

Gainbridge gonna be loud af tonight!

Yeah that's the part of nepotism that gets overlooked. The onus is not and should not be on the kid to decline opportunities. More so the organization (by which I mean front offices saying he is not good enough) has to take a stand. But Jeanie Buss will do anything to retain Bron at this point.

Why Dillingham over Topić? Curious your thoughts as I have heard both sides on this (and also arguments for Sheppard, which I happen to think will not happen in SA). Also are you saying Spurs take Edey at 8?

This is some great discussion...and even better playoff hate. As a neutral observer, both teams are easy to root for and love the smack talk from both sides of players. Whoever wins the series will be who I hope wins the Finals.

Yeah he actually works for MSG right? I get he is contracted by ESPN and he is a very good on the call, but 100% makes it like you're listening to the away broadcast.

Mark Jackson was close. But yeah Doris takes the cake.

Anybody ever look back on dudes we recruited that are in the league now and thought DAMN! If only we would have landed that guy...Donovan Mitchell is that dude right now. If I remember correctly Crean offered him before his ranking blew up. Hope he knocks out the Massholes.

Not sure about others on this board, but I already feel good about the upcoming year. We added dynamic guards, rebounding, and some shooting. The outlook is better than last year.

I guess it depends on your definition of overpay. How much NIL do we have left in the pool? Fwiw I have no idea on that. We only have 2 slots left and backup 5 is, imo, our biggest need. So depending on how much we have left to spend, an overpay might be our best investment. Agree with you 100% that a freshman big to develop would have been perfect. But now that we know it's not happening, shifting to getting Moreno next year and giving him prime minutes seems solid. Doesn't help this year though.

BURN THE HERETIC! /s

Not sure his name has got much run in this thread, but Timberwolves assistant and IU grad Micah Nori is phenomenal and deserves a HC gig soon.

Michael Malone storms onto the court and gets into the face of a ref. No tech. Jamal Murray throws a heat pack onto the court of a live ball situation. No tech. Ref fans eating well tonight.

Knicks-Pacers gonna be an incredible series based off game 1. Wolves putting the absolute clamps on Denver in Q1. Love playoff basketball.

True. But Wagner played worse and will now get all the heat that comes with the L. Garland definitely has to put it together or he will have minutes reduced.

This is damn good basketball.

Maxey absolutely going off right now. 7 points in the last 30 seconds. Garden is having Reggie flashbacks.

Beat Florida, FSU, and Iowa for him? Seems like a massive W

I asked several pages back for clarification on this and also got (near) radio silence. I would be interested to hear the toxic and surprising (words from different posters) teachings in schools. Credit to @Golfman25who took time to respond to questions.
