Steph on Lebron James’ comment on Steph’s MVP candidacy:

“He knows when he says something people pay attention so for him to speak on my MVP candidacy is definitely, I respect him for it, I appreciate it, we all know as competitors though, when the lights are on, I can talk about how great he is till I'm blue in the face and he can do the same, it doesn't change how we approach that competition when we're out there. And I won't be giving him a pass because he likes the way I played this year and vice Steph on Lebron James’ comment on Steph’s MVP candidacy:

I like he said

Would y'all be down to draft Scottie Barnes? Seems like A perfect draymond replacement and will be able to be mentored by him

One huge key for tomorrow's game. Under no circumstances can they afford to get Drummond in foul trouble. If he picks up a bad foul the Warriors should consider using their challenge.

“Jordan Poole on the foul and gift from Boban:

"It was just a regular foul, but he's so large, it looked worse." 😂

"I'm a huge blanket guy. I love to be cozy, so I'm blessed & thankful. He's the only one [in the league] who would have done that." 💕

Russ is the girl with the curl tonight. And when she was bad, she was horrid.

Another great article, tocayo. I personally love Steve Kerr, I don't understand how fans would want him fired when any other franchise with a young talented team would snatch him up in a heartbeat. Fuck that parallel universe!

Looks like Beal is playing through a hamstring injury. Every time he comes down after shooting the ball he's holding his hamstring

Your season is on the line and you come out and get outplayed in all 4 quarters. Guess they were too worried about the Mile Bridges dunk show and not enough of the Playing Good Basketball Show

LaMelo must be relieved that the stats from this game count as neither regular season nor playoffs.

Hornets: 1-2-3 Cancun!

Passion of Kerr: relax Steve - tomorrow is only mildly important, compared to when we meet LAL again in a few weeks....

OT: can one of the writers please tell Substack to give us a way to turn off emails whenever someone likes or replies to a comment? Those emails are disruptive and unnecessary. Yet, as far as I can tell, there's no way to turn them off, nor is there any way for me, a subscriber, to directly contact Substack support to bitch at them about it.

I say Wizards take it today, they have all kinds of momentum and the Celtics seem to be just waiting for the season to end.

I know Jokic has had a great season and all but I honestly feel like he's super undeserving of what appears to be the margin of victory.

He is literally having the worst season of his career in terms of on/off impact. I don't mind him winning it but winning it in a landslide in the least impactful season of his career? And his team still ended up a 3 seed in the end, which is right where they've been for years? I'm not into that at all.
