Stats at halftime for Luka’s return to Dallas: Luka Doncic 31 points 3 rebounds 3 assists 3 steals Anthony Davis 4 points 4 rebounds 4 assists 1 block

The Bucks going on a 34-3 run in the 4th quarter is the kind of thing that no one would believe without proof

NBA refs when fans come to watch the players play

Ejecting Luka Doncic for talking back to a chirping fan is just ridiculous

Ja Morant celebrates his three by throwing a grenade into a crowd of innocent spectators Man just became a war criminal on live television

This whole NBA season has felt like this

Firing Booth as well makes a little more sense But the timing is wild

This feels like a pre-emptive scapegoating

Every basketball player probably dreams of making the game winner in game 7 of the NBA Finals Only one dreams of pulling his pants down to celebrate

Steph Curry on Ime Udoka talking trash heading into half time: “He had made a reservation to International Smoke and then cancelled it” h/t Anthony Slater

OG Anunoby has really shown up the past couple weeks—he’s 7th in the NBA in scoring (*min 5 games played) along with his usual lockdown defense Also shows just how hot Paolo Banchero, Tyler Herro, Coby White, and Deni Avdija have been lately *Jokic is averaging 40 a game over 4 games played

Yeah well tell Jokic to drag Walton and Lanier up and down the court for 48 minutes

For the Suns’ fan appreciation night they are giving away Bradley Beal bobbleheads Unfortunately any fan who receives one will not be able to get rid of it

Podz after hearing the news: “I wasn’t making a gun gesture, I was throwing a kiss out to everyone”

I can’t believe it’s 2025 and we get to watch Austin Reaves go toe to toe with Brandin Podziemski They both had career highs in threes made tonight (9 for Reaves, 8 for Podz)

Ja Morant: “The only way to stop a bad guy with finger guns is a good guy with finger guns”

The Heat have now won 6 in a row since losing 10 in a row Per Tim Reynolds, no team has lost 10 in a row and then immediately won 6 straight by double digits

When the Beam Team loses to the Washington Wizards

Jarrett Allen absolutely stuffs KAT

It’s impossible not to feel nervous when Westbrook is on in crunchtime, and this is why All time disaster class to spoil an all time great performance

Nikola Jokic joins James Harden and Luka Doncic as the only players in NBA history to put up a 60 point triple double

Even with all that is wrong with the world, we are pretty blessed to be able to watch Nikola Jokic and Steph Curry play basketball

What it feels like to go up against Nikola Jokic

In his third season, averaging 37 points a game, Michael Jordan played an April Fools’ Day prank by saying he was retiring to play golf Years later he would make his prank a reality by retiring to play baseball www.sbnation.com/nba/2020/4/1...

The Wizards need Cooper Flagg badly

The basketball gods saw the clown parade of recent NBA commentary and decided we have suffered enough The fact that Bill Simmons said there will be a trailer for the return of Zach Lowe shows just how important Lowe is to NBA discourse

Suns lose by 39 at home Bucks lose by 21 at home Sixers lose by 18 at home They’re all fighting hard but it still feels like the Mavs have locked up the Disappointment Cup

Jaren Jackson Jr with one of the most shameless flops in NBA history He received a technical foul and a Razzie

Reactions to the Grizzlies firing Taylor Jenkins Grizzlies fans: “We better not end up hiring Doc Rivers” Bucks fans: “We must fire Doc Rivers right now and hire Jenkins”

Adam Silver weighs in on how the NBA is covered: -jealous that in other sports the coverage seems to be more celebratory -cringes sometimes at NBA coverage -but the NBA is a beneficiary of increased social media interest [thanks to all the stupid bullshit]

ESPN’s response to LeBron’s criticism of how basketball is being covered SAS: Why wasn’t LeBron at Kobe’s funeral? Also I’m really good at boxing now Perk: I blocked LeBron on my cell phone. He might be racist Windy: People want drama. I told him that as I watched him being delivered as a baby

Nikola Jokic with the casual razzle dazzle

Courtside view of LeBron’s game winner Jarace Walker is gonna hear about this

Rough night for the Warriors when their entire starting 5 has been outscored by Alec Burks

Well this is obviously terrible news for Dame and the Bucks Giannis having to carry the team with Kyle Kuzma as his number two seems comically unfair

Jonathan Givony has updated his big board of NBA draft prospects www.espn.com/nba/insider/...

32/5/9 for Franz in a win over the Lakers on his own bobblehead night

Raptors were desperate for the loss vs the Wizards They benched Barnes, Quickley & Poeltl with 8:30 left Battle scored 11 straight so they subbed him out With 4 mins left they attempted to go entirely without a point guard But they still won bc the Wizards benched Poole & Middleton in the 3rd 💀

Luka doing Luka things He has 21 points at the half, Lakers up 60-58 vs the Magic

So the NBA basically tacitly approved the tanking loophole of benching your best players for half the game Why even have a player participation policy if it can be so easily circumvented

Anthony Davis has been upgraded to questionable for tonight’s game vs the Nets Making the play ins won’t stop the “worst trade in history” talk but it would be hilarious if the Mavs keep the Suns from making it
