Zach LaVine with 2 points in 25 minutes in a blowout loss to Celtics.

Getting real ugly in Chicago... I mean they have to be thinking about just sending the dude home until he's traded (which might take a while, he has a terrible market).

His return gonna look more like the Beal pupu platter
 
One crazy stat for today as well. These are the 3 point and FT shooting numbers for RJ Barret this year and last year. Now last year was his worst 3P shooting year as a pro, but he has only managed to shoot better than 35% once in his 4 seasons. He has also never shot better than 74.6% from FT.

Has he really improved his shooting that much or is it a 12 game anomaly? Will be interesting to follow up on those numbers. His usage is down even though the 3/FT attempts look fairly consistent.
 
Players have been commenting on the awkwardness of running up scores to get into the tournament quarterfinals. Maybe that's not a great tiebreaker.
 
The OKC/MIN game was pretty good last night. It's the best I've seen Gobert look in a long time. He seemed to be playing a little harder to try and show up Chet.

OKC had been shooting unsustainably high from 3. They likely will lose some games as they come back down to earth there.

Cason Wallace missed his first free throw of his career. His shooting splits are all the way down to 62/59/91 now.

Chet is a big time **** talker and has a thing against Wemby. Maybe some French pride going on

Last I checked they had like a 25 pt lead. Soooooo they blew it? Has the window finally closed on that team? They seem to have lost a step or two.

I don't know, I still wouldn't like to play in the playoffs if I were a contender.
Didn't watch much, but I did watch the finish, where huge mistakes were made by Curry and Green.

Gobert and the Wolves look so good. I think the Wolves are the best bet to dethrone the Nuggets in the West, just because of the matchups.

The Mitchell trade will be looked at as more lopsided than the Gobert trade when it is all said and done.

Not if Kessler and keyonte turn into who we think they can be I still wouldn’t even consider doing the trade the other way knowing who the picks turned in to

It will be fun to see how each trade shakes out as the picks and swaps come due. Right now I'm still leaning towards Lauri and Ochai but Kessler and George is already a really good return for Gobert.

I can't wait to see what type of impact Ja will have on the griz. It is crazy how bad they have been this year but Ja solves so many problems for them and allows guys to fit into their correct roles. They may have already dug themselves too big of a hole to get into play in contention by then but they should be a pretty damn good team with him running the show and get close to the play in at the very least.
 
Wolves need to move KAT before his value tanks. OKC needs to move Josh but that might be impossible. Roll with Wallace he's a better fit.
