Bulls look awful. Brooks is about as me first as you can get and he's useless on defense. Pau needs to be more aggressive. He can't lay back with three top Bulls players out with injury.

The stars are aligning for Lebron again

Enis Kantner is averaging 15/9 on 55% shooting with OkC.

What a helluva pickup.

What did Utah get from dumping a 22 year old 3rd pick overall with low post game? Seriously, I don't remember the trade.

Anyway, OKC is the master at getting guys worth more than their current deals. But they face the issue of paying up or not when the time comes.

It was a 3 team trade if I recall. Utah/Detroit/Okc.

Reggie Jackson, Kendrick Perkins, Grant Jerrett, Tibor Pleiss and a 2017 first-round pick went out while Enis Kantner and DJ Augustin came in.

Losing Kendrick Perkins for nothing would have been addition by subtraction but they managed to replace him in the middle with a 15/9 guy that has a few post moves and can finish in the PnR. Reggie Jackson was on his way out anyways this offseason and the other 2 guys are throw-ins. The only thing of note is the 2017 pick but they're in win now mode.

ABC's cast is terrible. Sage Steele - boring vanilla host who doesn't add to the discussion. Doug Collins - boring boring. Jalen Rose - boring guy who thinks he's interesting.

Man, the Clippers are a team full of whiners. Especially Griffin, Paul, and Doc Rivers. They're rubbing off on DeAndre too.

Players take over the character of their coach.

What a bad, ugly shot by Paul. Ariza defended well.

World of difference between having Ariza to close games defensively, vs no one last year on the wing.

The weakest link is Beverly. There was a play near the end where he can't get the ball to Harden, and ended up throwing an off-balanced 3.

Interesting color choice by ABC, JVG and Jackson, they were running replays showing the Clippers are wrong like a local broadcast team at the end there

I knew Ariza would be an upgrade over Parsons at that spot. It's just a matter of fit and elite defense at the wing is exactly what they needed.

It's Paul imo. They were a team of notorious whiners/floppers even before Doc got there.

It works for them usually though, i've been reading those ref reports and they're about +10 on bad calls in the last 2 minutes, and there isn't really anyone else close.

Although hopefully it being out there might correct it a bit (and in this game, the refs seemed to be more straight up, especially late)

And here we go

For all their moaning and whining, the only incorrect call was in their favor.

Had a triple-double earlier today (11/10/11), but Detroit lost to Philly.

The Jazz have been on a crazy tear since trading Kanter and playing Gobert more. Nuts.

Welp, once GSW woke up they proceeded to lay the smackdown. So much for clash of the titans (ATL is really missing Korver IMO)
