Some of the ejections this year have been so frustrating. The Warriors and Bucks were playing a really great game and then Durant gets thrown out. Now the game sucks. Today it was Portis and Morris for no fucking reason

So the Nuggets/Timberwolves game tomorrow is win or go home, winner goes to the playoffs and the other is out. That'll be a fun one to lead us into the playoffs

west 4-9 seeds are still all up for grabs too.
westbrook needs 16 rebounds tomorrow night vs memphis to average another season triple-double. 3 out of the last 4 games, he's had at least 15 rbs, so it's definitely do-able.

He'll somehow manage to play 57 minutes in a standard 48 minute game.
Rooting for the Nuggets though since I might be able to get some free tickets to that first round series.

I'm going to Jazz @ Blazers tomorrow. If the Jazz are able to beat Golden State tonight, the 3 seed will be up for grabs in that one.

I know he left the game last night with a shoulder injury. Would be pretty tough for the TimberBulls if he's unable to play.

It’s wild David Locke (Utah radio/podcast guy) was mocked last summer when he predicted Donovan Mitchell would average 15 points per game as a rookie. He's comfortably over 20 right now. But honestly, so much of this has to do with Rudy Gobert. Even last year, they were almost ruined by all the injuries to Hayward, Favors, Hood and Hill. But Rudy just makes such a difference on both ends of the court that the Jazz just keep winning games.

Watching this Nuggets/Timberwolves game is a trip. It's been so long since I've seen a collection of players that have more than one NBA skill. Jeff Teague looks like Chris Paul after watching the 2017-2018 Bulls.

It's been a pretty good game so far. I can't believe it's not on ESPN

Happy for the Twolves. Also looking forward to Cleveland not dominating the Eastern Conference playoffs this year.

Bulls ended up tied with Sacramento for 6th in the lottery, they'll flip a coin on Friday for the scenario where neither team moves up.
All things considered, could've been worse.

westbrook becomes the first player to average a triple-double in a season twice. had 20 rebounds / 19 assists last night. amazing for him to do it once, let alone twice...
westbrook also became the first player to lead the league in scoring one year (last season), then lead the league in assists the next (this season).

Bulls wanted to send Sister Jean as their lottery rep, but it has to be someone associated with the organization.

Is it Clifford's fault the Hornets have an aging/overpaid roster and they've flopped on basically every draft pick since Kemba in 2011? Between Clifford and Fizdale, some shitty teams are going to get some really good coaches this summer.

Bulls win the tiebreaker with Sacramento, so if no teams jumps them in the lottery they pick 6th.

Would be a coup for Milwaukee if they're able to bring in a real professional coach like Clifford after the Kidd shenanigans for all of those years.
