Boring night for basketball. Only 2 games

Dog game tonight with the Pelicans v Spurs, but I guess at least I get to see Stephanie Ready on the halftime show.

The Wizards v Jazz is a bit closer at least.

Re: December Games Discussion Thread

Hardly anybody (I’m not talking about OS but just in general) is talking about how good of a year KD is having.

Also randomly, and this may be skewed some from how bad they started, they also still play pretty well when he’s off the floor too. His on/off splits are like +5 this year which is still a good number but it’s half of what it was the last two years despite how well KD is playing this year.

Nets keep looking better and better.

I listen to a lot of various NBA podcasts, and they do recognize that Brooklyn has been good lately, despite their multiple issues just a month or so before. It may not be front page story material, but I have heard people discussing Durant and how they have been playing since after the whole Kyrie mess.

I was impressed with the Knicks, personally. Even though they just lost to Toronto, that streak I didn’t expect from them.

Bane upgraded to questionable [emoji1373] hopefully that means he plays the Christmas game even if he doesn’t play tonight.

Been moving the ball real well and guys have been getting good looks and eating off the pressure from 7/11.

Need them to attack the rim a *little* bit more(tbf, it’s been happening more with Kyrie and especially Ben)since they still get jump shot happy from time to time but if they can strike that right balance, they’ll keep climbing up especially with how they’ve been playing defense over the last month.

Fair point, I've heard it mentioned a few times on NBA radio myself. I was more so looking at it from all the MVP chatter Tatum and Luka have had in comparison to how little KD has gotten.

Yep, I've been thinking about this, somehow KD's greatness is just kind of ho hum now. I think that the way he make everything look so effortless has somehow lulled folks in to being blasé about what he does.

Have the Magic been using Bol Bol at SF all season? That is a crazy way to use all their big men and length in the paint. [emoji43]*[emoji94][emoji38]

Good start so far for the Nets.

Looking active on both ends.

Yup... If 2k rated him correctly. They would be straight up cheese. It's basically cheese in real life. Teams treat him like a big men standing out there. But like your said. He's really a SF

I love the play of Ben.

KD playing post defense vs Brooks!! Love to see it!

Re: December Games Discussion Thread

I love this fake block shot attempt by Bol Bol. He thought he had him lol.
