Back in the days the ball had to hit rim in the NBA, but only had to be a legitimate shot attempt in FIBA, but that might have changed, of course. I don't really think this is a legit shot attempt, but I agree that it's fun and unique and don't really mind the non-call.

But he doesn't hit rim and then picks up the ball again?

Why is that not traveling?

The problem is that with 4 or 5 top picks up for grabs, your chance isn't 5%, but closer to 20%. Also a flat lottery would be 6.66% per team, so not so different from 5%.

It's kinda weird, but I also feel like Naz Reid just isn't anywhere like the Naz Reid of last year.

Could've used some upgrades down the stretch vs the Knicks, at least. I just watched the final 5m, and while he did get an impressively long 3 waved off (CP3 was pushed, but before the gather), Victor wasn't really impressive offensively down the stretch (although by all accounts he'd had an...

Kris Dunn? And their '31 FRP.

What about a 3 second rule for the corners?

But those hand pads! And the balance!

"shoot first"?

The injury report has most of them listed as being back relatively soon (November) where it says estimated return date, but they also all seem to be "not yet full contact drills" the lot of them. Alvarado is out until mid/late Dec, and seems like Zion is still "indefinitely" (despite Nov 25 as...

They could be, but those guys don't want to sit if they get healthy. How to keep losing then?

Murphy is somewhat back, but rusty and doesn't play back-to-back, Ingram also out vs Cavs tonight. Alvarado, CJ McCollum, Zion, Herb Jones, Jordan Hawkins, Dejounte Murray still out. Seems like Ingram is a short-term thing, but the injury report is not great reading for a Pelicans fan (or from...

Not guaranteed, no. We're currently sitting tied for third worst record with PHI and WAS (MIL and TOR are worse, but all have two wins).

The Cavs pick will be late, that's all but certain, but the Wolves pick still depends a lot on future injuries, I'd say. But the most likely outcome is obviously two relatively late picks.

Yeah, that may be the case, just pointing out (to oldtimer) that the contract isn't much of a problem. Clearing money next year would potentially allow us to for example save someone from tax hell by picking up an expiring plus assets.

FVV is massively overpaid of course, but he's a free agent after the season, so we'll clear a lot of money for next year.

And now without Aaron Gordon for multiple weeks.

I have bad news.

Imma check back on this season when playoffs approaches. (Edit: For everyone else, I mean.)
