He had a pretty horrid offensive game tonight, though I felt his defense was pretty solid. 

So-so showing for THT for me in my first real game watching him.

Looks like no LeBron against Mavs. Perhaps no AD too

Impressive stretch by the Lakers.  Sure they are losing ground on the top 4 and have had some losses, but they have stabilized without Lebron and AD.   They look to be rounding into form if you account for an eventual healthy Lebron and AD.   

I really thought Drummond would have been traded for a .50 on a dollar trade.   I didn't love the fit in dallas either.   Although he is going to help LAL in the stretch run, isn't he?  He is going to rebound and score easy baskets at  the rim right?

I just picture what this Mavs stretch would have looked like without Luka and KP (and KP is not at AD level at this stage).  It will be fascinating what plays out with a healthy LAL team in the playoffs but they need to play each series as the road team  .

Seemed like really weak techs when I saw it. Maybe I missed the video. Kyrie's is more understandable. Schroder seemed like the weakest two techs ever.

Even when Jordan, Pippen and Harper had off games, you could count on them brining it on the defensive end.

Rough season for the rookie after he game strong out of the gates.  Here's hoping for the best.

The Warriors good fortunes have seemingly run completely out.

Uh oh there you go. Was wanting to see how her performed the rest of the season. If Warriors are wanting to cash him in for someone else they'd be selling low because he hasn't shown a lot this year.

Agreed. Some refs make the game about them. Guys talk shit to each other all the time. Give both a double tech and move on...

If Jokic doesn't win MVP, somebody needs to be arrested.

When in doubt put Marcus Smart on a big and let him go to work. Played incredible deny defense and disrupted the Nuggets offense. Might be a blueprint for other teams. Take away Jokic´s on ball playmaking and turn him into a traditional pick and roll/post up big.

Nugs were missing Murray. He's a huge part of what they do. No excuses though, Jekkyl and Hyde Boston beat them and stopped that 9 game winning streak.

FML has LaVine upped his shooting numbers even more? Now 51/42/85 with eight threes per game. Jesus Christ. Him and Luka together would be the same level as Kyrie/Harden. Completely unstoppable offensively.  Blush

They just won 9 in a row and had one bad quarter.  If they're showing cracks, the Mavs are having an earthquake.
