People were saying the same about the Warriors in 2013/2014…. Just can’t hate on Steph Curry….
 
Kyle Lowry has missed a lot of games now for "personal reasons."

That's...a bit concerning for Miami.

When healthy they're absolutely loaded. I mean they've even got Oladipo coming back who could be some super sub off the bench if he's close to being right.



BUt they're never healty. Butler is hurt all the time. Adebayo missed a ton of time. Lowry now out for some undisclosed reason.

I was thinking the same shit, what’s going on with him….Mental issues drug addiction?….I don’t think he hurt….

Lowry got his ring, is nearing the end, and knows the toll for competing. He may feel done with basketball.
 
Memphis is annoying.

Not are they really deep, but if the draft were held today, they would have picks 11, 21, 28 and they have proven to be one of the better draft and development teams in the league.

They are well set up to just build a super deep homegrown team around Ja or to be at the front of the line for any young superstar on the trade market in the next few years if they want to go that route.

Going to be a beast in the West for a long time.
Another roadblock for the Lakers.

You hate to see it.
 
Toronto about to beat Miami again. East is crazy competitive.

1 Chicago 32-18 (assuming they finish off Orlando tonight)
2 Miami 32-19
3 Philly 31-19
4 Cleveland 31-20
5 Milwaukee 32-21
6 Brooklyn 29-20 (at Phoenix tonight)

Second time Miami has lost to Toronto this week. The Heat are having issues closing games and it doesn't look easily fixable.
 
Nice article about Memphis here. Like the Cavaliers, they have been dismissed and disrespected, but people are starting to realize how good they are. They also have great team chemistry. It would be fun to see the Grizzlies and Cavs in the finals.

Length bothers them. Other than Bam, they don't have much. Toronto and the Cavs are both bad matchups for them.
 
Lu Dort with 14 points in OT in the win over the Mavs. His aggression, confidence, and development on offense is what the Cavs would like to see out of Okoro.

Giddey with 14 pts, 10 ast, 7 boards.

Okc 2 wins in a row without SGA.

First time since maybe the very beginning of the season where I'm more excited about OKC than the Cavs. Sad what the Cavs have looked like without Garland. He's a playmaker whereas SGA does iso ball, so not surprising his loss is a bigger one to his team than SGA's has been to OKC. OKC has a chance to win as long as Giddey is in there. And Tre Mann can shoot, by the way.
 
For all the Simmons, Kyrie, Brown-Tatum and other dramas this season…. Its been really slow in terms of trade action… its only 1 week left, feels like its going to be not an exciting safari
