How do the Warriors lose to the Magic and then beat the Heat?

The Heat have looked awful against backups the last couple games. No Herro, struggling to incorporate Dipo and Morris. Idk. Hopefully it's just Spo trying to figure out who's going to get run in the playoffs but these last two games have been embarrassing.

The finger wave/calling for the replay was smooth. Giannis over here having another monster year.

A Celtics loss to the Heat last night at home is worst case scenario re: the Robert Williams injury. Tatum, Brown, Smart need to step up.

Rob is the second most important player on the team and the most likely to get hurt. Not a great place to be.

Agreed, he's also the most important defensive player on the league's best defensive team...

So you guys are saying Marcus Smart shouldn't be ahead of Bam on the NBA's DPOY ladder??

I listened to a pretty convincing case for Williams based on his ability to switch and guard multiple positions, plus shot blocking.

Yeah Rob has a bigger defensive impact on the court than Marcus. I don't think that takes anything away from Marcus. Rob's just that important.

Lakers potentially missing the play in and their top ten pick going to the Pelicans is comedy gold.

Bulls should tank into the play in and try and get to a Boston match up somehow. They won't win a single game against bucks/sixers.
