I see Rivers is 1-0 as a Rocket, with a solid 31 bench minutes today.

Kyrie Irving

Terrific match up between the Sixers and Celtics.

As far as fantasy free agents go, Kyrie Irving is right up there with Durant and Leonard. 

Alas.

Alas.

that was a great game, and great entertaining

Kyrie was outstanding. The guy's money.

Fun stat-he took 33 shot tonight (made 17) and only got to the line once.

thats about impossible for the amount of time he has the ball.

btw he made the T

Things I like:

THjr seems like he is always on the lookout for and looking to pass to KK

To counter his 2nd half swoons I noticed that to start the third period Fizz featured the offense through KK who scored some floater / push shots and assisted also.

But Lopez scored 20 in similar minutes.

Enies, great teammate and all,  doesn't make his own offense.  He needs to be assisted or score off of a miss.

His limited game outside of 5 feet isn't enough to account for what he gives up.

Bucks scored in the paint at will. We had to bring in Kornet to stand a chance.  At least he might block a shot.

Next year our top 4 PF/C platoon could be starters playing 33 minutes per: KP, Vonleh,
                                                             subs: Mitch, and Kornet,
                                                             with some small ball lineups eating away at the PF/C minutes

D Green is an overrated mutt.

Ball doing a nice job on Steph.

I'm not sure if Draymond is overrated, but I have him as a winner of "The Rasheed Wallace Memorial Guys You Don't Want On You Team When Things Go Badly" award.

If you do not count rebounds. 14- 11 has to be respected except for those who value intangibles.

Enes has singlehandedly brought the 2-3 zone back to the NBA. It takes a special player to do that. He’s perfect for us this year in our quest for Dukies, despite improvements elsewhere on the roster.

We played a pretty reasonable first half. I cut off the replay after that.

I finally caught the Black Panther movie as background to a swirl of familial activity.

So that was Christmas. I hope it had its merriments for all of you.

Good to see Knox with some 2nd half activity.
One thing I noticed is that he sometimes hunches down or leans with his paint shots, making himself smaller.  You're 6'9" or taller, go up and make yourself taller.  The hunch worked for him on some flip shots, but that'll get snuffed out. 


Re: Dray.
A perennial defensive player of the year candidate who leads his championship team in assists.  Probably just overrated . . .

That's an okay response to Kid's assertion but doesn't address mine which is Draymond, going back to college, is one of the great front-runners of all-time.

Triple double in a one-possession G7 loss to the Cavs - that wasn't frontrunning, was it?

 I think you don't understand what I mean by front-running.  But you can certainly look to his getting suspended in the 2016 Finals as an example of it.
