You can’t lose something that you never had.

Only if you go 0-4 from 3 in OT.

And now that I’ve said something about their winning streak, they’re for sure going to lose their next game. I’ve been holding off on bringing it up in this thread because I know I will jinx them.

Very possible anyway, their next game is against GS.

At the quarter pole of the season, the East is very tight through 13 teams. West has a bit more clarity.

:-) Totally forgot about that. Man, I timed that right!

Did Curry going 3 for 11 from 3 in the deciding game 6 of the 2019 NBA Finals against the Raptors or 4 for 14 from 3 in the deciding Game 7 of the 2016 NBA Finals against the Cavs no longer make him the best shooter of all time? No, but I'm certainly glad he did.

Your missing the most important part..they lost to the freaking Kings. :-)

I saw this the other day. They maybe in trouble to even make the playoffs if they don't right the ship.

Of course they lost to the Kings, their team is complete garbage and the Westbrook trade is one of the worst trades in decades (which I have maintained since that hilarious deal was made). They might make the playoffs but it will probably be as a play-in team if they do.

Nets-Knicks game has a playoff vibe. Really good game

Don’t think I can stay awake to watch GSW-Suns

Lebron has had a rough season now has covid and could miss 10 days.

Curry is 4 for 21 in this beatdown by the Suns. Did he think it was the postseason already or something?
[Reply]

Bridges is a top notch defender. Good win by the Suns, especially with Booker’s injury.

I haven't had much to be excited about in the last 25-30 years but my Bullets aka Wizards are clicking pretty well these days. Bradley Beal is great and still underrated.

Haven't watched much in the last 10 years but they have peaked my interest to start watching again.

He ended up -17 in plus/minus last night. They looked a hell of a lot better with him on the bench than with him on the floor which is a rarity. But the Warriors couldn't have played a sloppier game.
