    So near, and yet so far with the injuries

    Assume you didn’t watch this one either? Big mistake if so and the two guys who annoy you most …. weren’t in it to spoil it for you? Am not kidding if you’re not watching now you’re missing the kind of players and fun basketball you’re always wishing we had again.

    I think he's watching this new team more. And it's a fun team, guys are playing hard, and the chemistry is miles better.

    Big win last night. Only 1 game back from Utah and NO.


    Tonight:
    - Sixers vs. Mavs: it's a shame Embiid is out.
    - Warriors vs. Clippers: either helps, but i'm here for the continued Clipperbrook skid.

    I don’t know honestly. There was another game we won as satisfyingly as this with LeBron out and I think AD was balling and rest of guys played great, that we beat a heavily favored team and I asked then too and just heard back, only highlights and following the box score, like above that was posted.

    sirron?

    I watched the last game, but I'm living on Philippines time, but working mostly US hours, so by the time the game is on, I'm fast asleep. I missed sleep to catch the prior game with Memphis, but was hoping for good results in this last game. I'll try to catch more games moving forward. This is a group you can root for without pulling your hair out.

    For reference 16 hours ahead of US California time right now. Spring forward will be 15 hours. Makes it challenging to catch games. Need good reasons, and the previously unwatchable brand of basketball didn't qualify. I felt like I missed absolutely nothing.

    This team I'm already trying to carve out time for, and considering watching a replay as well.

    It’s a fun team, I watch while at work and rewatch the wins. I’m enjoying this team as much as my favorite non Laker title team 94-95 with Nick the quick EJ and Chise

    I hope we can finally keep blazers/thunder behind us in the standings.

    only 1 game back of the play-In now...this 5 game homestand we need to go 4-1 or 5-0. No more playing around.

    Surprised the 6ers lost, didn't forsee Kyrie and Luka each going for 40.

    Clippers/Warriors was a win win either way, but love seeing the Clippers lose.


    Tomorrow features some much more significant games:

    - us hosting the Wolves
    - Blazers vs Hawks
    - Jazz vs Thunder
    - Pelicans vs Warriors
    - Clippers vs Kings

    I'll be good with 3 of 5: Lakers, Warriors, and Kings winning

    We've won 5 of our last 7. Be cool to see the improved play start to show up in the L10 column. Portland and OKC are falling off. Teams ahead of us are struggling. Perfect time for a push. Too bad we don't have all hands on deck.

    never would have guessed utah would be in the playoff race. and even after further gutting the team at the deadline.

    i'd definitely have gone for the tank there. they need top-end talent, not seasoning for guys who largely won't be there in two years.
