Fun Bucks-Smelts game.
Bit of a sloppy ending.

If I'm Toronto or especially Philly, I fear Boston more than Milwaukee.

I like how Celts switched Smart on to Giannis a couple times late.
He was the only one to get in front and block and hound him.
Tough dude.

MIL doesn't have the playoff experience BOS and TOR do.
Neither does PHI, but they are stacked.
I favor experience.  Plus I don't think the Giannis Bulls People Over act will work in a playoff series.  We'll see.  Maybe get enough 1st round momentum to be primed for the 2nd round.  BOS pups did well last year. 

I'm leaning towards TOR because they play D and Kawhi can score in the clutch fairly well.  BOS has the pieces but needs to get it together.
The 2nd round in the East should be a lot of fun.

Lakes started Bullock over KCP.
Can't be passive in this league.

I think Ball should be back soon.
Good defender and passer.
I figure Lakes make it into the playoffs.
And Clips somewhat willingly drop out.

An LBJ v. GSW 1st round series would be fun.
Ball on Scurry; Ingram/LBJ on Durant; Bullock/KCP on Klay
They don't match up badly, and this year GSW isn't that deep.
Kuz a bit of a weak link defender.  Hide him on Dray.
JaVale & TyC wrestle with Cousin Boogie.
So they match up fairly well.  GSW just more coherent.

LAL offense a bit of a ?
But just need Kuz to do his thing and Ingram to be aggressive but not out of control (he's really bad when doubled).  Get some solid shooting from Hart. Bullock, KCP and you have a potential upset.

Might depend how much energy LeBJ has to expend just to get Lakes to the playoffs.

No team falls apart like Houston falls apart (even with Paul playing).

Kanter has less on the floor than Ellison and much less than Zion (on one leg or two) or Jordan.

He won’t be much help to Portland either.

18 points, 9 rebounds and a victory in his first game for Portland.

Oh, I'm sure it's just a fluke.

His bench crew only gave up a little of the lead. He’s always been worth it as a minimum guy, maybe even bi-annual level. -3 in the game.

Sadly, his game is outdated and not useful in the modern NBA. Tell me I'm making that up. I don't think that's exactly crazy talk.

The idiocy that enveloped Kam & PriK's 10,000,000 Enes-Hate posts all the more striking as he slips seamless into sig minutes with the #4 team in the west.

Onward.

So Datsun scored 18 1Q points and finished with 20?
Knix had 20 turns to 15 assists ...

And looks like their bench killed us.

Seems like an odd game, but I only caught fragments of a replay, since my internet connection was crap.

Mudiay is no substitute for Kadeem Allen. That was pretty much our downfall.
