A win in Boston is as likely as a loss. If the Dubs show up ready to rumble, they can at least give Boston a good game, win or lose. That's what we all want to see, a good game. Maybe the defensive emphasis will be on not reaching in and fouling and will become a part of their preparations. Mindfulness is always appropriate on and off the court.

OK, so last time I said positive things were bubbling below the surface, but not showing up in the win column... it was after the first or second win of a a 5 game winning streak.

I still say positive things are bubbling, and hopefully starting to crack the surface. Steph is back, Andrew is looking more spry, Jordan is looking much better, Klay is balling out, the bench as a whole isn't getting crushed, JK should be back, JMG/JW are soon back too...

We have not won two consecutive road games yet. So, is Thursday’s game already a predictable loss? Or will the spell be broken?

I tried to replace the following blanks with other team and other player but miserably failed😭😭😭

"( )are always welcome in this White House," Biden said Tuesday. He also honored ( ) as "one of the great sportsmen of our time."

He said ( )"reflect America" with their style of play, showcasing "constant motion, with individual freedom and personality that comes together as one team, a team that plays with joy, with drive to be their best."

The thing about E1P's is that when the game is slowed down enough I can see and follow way more of what's going on than in real time that it's crazy to think that in real time the game slows down for the elite players playing it. It's like Draymond lives inside E1P time!

I'm a wee bit irritated with the new NBA app. I wanted to rewatch the game, and lo and behold, they don't have the full game available.

There is something that says it is 'all plays', but what it actually is are Washington's offensive plays, and not even all of those.

What a load of dung the new app is.

Got a panic flash right now that the Warriors might consider trading PBJ. All the reasons most Ws fans would prefer to send out Wiseman, Rollins, or JGreen than Baldwin are the same reasons other GMs would demand Baldwin: four seasons of cheap team control, high character, at least one highly projectable NBA skill as a natural shooter with a crazy high release point.

Would Presti send us Mike Muscala (6-11 lights out shooter and solid rebounder, passer, and shotblocker who has rated as a total stud by advanced stats for three straight seasons) for say, PBJ and Rollins? Would anyone here do that?

Wiseman must have been saying that Poole three should've been a four-point play. To me it looked like he was too open to get fouled, but it's a good hand sign to have at the ready, I guess! 😉

Just feel like Steph would never do this (Take a shot in a game that was already decided just to get a statline he likes) and he should be MORE honored for it. He only believes in winning not in empty stats or records.
