I would have to hate the Bulls solely out of principle.

Yeah that sucked. Yet another perfect encapsulation of the post-LeBron Miami Heat.

This Bucks/Sixers game has been pretty good in the 4th quarter. Shots dropping from all over the court with good defense. Giannis is something else.

Sixers Raptors and Celtics can all take out Bucks. People talk about how deep the Bucks are but being deep is a regular season thing. Doesn't matter much in the playoffs. Giannis dropped 52 and hit 3 threes today and still lost. Sign of things to come.

Bucks were tired after a big comeback win and didn’t play up to their usual standards on defense. Not too worried; this game seems to have meant a lot more to the Sixers.

Are they planning on soaking up the Brogdon minutes with George Hill, because he's fallen off of a cliff the last few years.

I think any one of those teams can beat the other with the right luck and timing. There is no clear favorite in my eyes.

I liked Dirk well enough, I guess. But this talk about him being a top 10 player is crazy.

I don't think he's even top 20.

Especially when he's been done for a while now but still gets to gimp around for a handful of minutes a night and hit a few jumpers. He's just stat padding at this point.

This is the worst part of the NBA schedule. Good thing March Madness can distract us with mediocre, high pressure basketball for a few weeks.

Jerian Grant played 33 minutes tonight for the Magic and had straight zeros for a line, even +/-. That has to be a mistake right? How could an NBA player be so utterly useless?
