No Steven Adams tomorrow. He is out for 3-5 weeks with a PCL sprain.

Suns looked like they were in freefall like five minutes ago; now they’re back to the #5 seed (a three-way tie for it). The West is cray-cray.

A little OT but Wemby added to the core of Sengun, Jabari Smith Jr. and Jalen Green could potentially be a problem in the future.

Suns about to win, but Lakers down 23 at the half is always a ray of sunshine.

Doncic turns the ball over! Wizards beat the Mavs 127-126. Mavs fall to 25-24.

Doncic fouls Kuzma. Mavs challenge, but it is unsuccessful. Kuzma hits 1/2 FTs.

Game tied 126-126 with 10 seconds left to go. Mavs could've taken the lead if Doncic hit both FTs, but he hit only one of them.

Logic, please meet Clippers v. Lakers.

Logic says, go Lakers.

Logic also says, never root for the Lakers.

Logic also says, the Clippers don’t exist, they’re just a figment of a billionaire’s imagination.

Logic also says, don’t eat too much ice cream, it’s bad for your waistline and health.

Logic also says, vanilla ice cream consumption has no greater positive effect on the outcome of Warriors games than any other flavor. Nor do ounces consumed correlate with Klay’s number of made 3s.

QED: Logic is always wrong.

Mavs fall to the Wizards. What up Luka?

The race for the middle tightens ever further.

Nuggets take a 97-88 lead with 5:10 to play… and then score zero points for the next 5 minutes while giving up the lead with 36 seconds left… but get a Jokic bucket, a block, and a CJ miss to win the game 99-98. Moral of the story: random ending goes the Nuggets way, but not the Warriors way. Sigh

Lakers with the Warriors "Let's spot you 10" start.

My head is swelling. 6 comments of mine made the cut this week - with kittens & ice cream & the occasional intelligent comment.

I just want to tell everybody that... I like you a lot.
