Man the half time show is worse. They seriously think Westbrook is some kind of angel and Jones Jr is a thug Watson put in just to pick a fight with him.

I guess after Durant walked away they are a bit insecure. :)

Barkley making it all about himself.

I thought for sure he was going to retire, but he said "If you'll still have me I'm going to keep on going."

I get that OKC is playing on the 2nd night of a back to back without Oladipo but damn, their team still really sucks. The Suns players aren't even trying hard, their toying around and still doing whatever they want.

We're in danger of wining another one but OKC is in the early bonus.
Go Suns!

Dudley is at least 20 lbs. overweight this year.

At least.

Amusing.

Because the NBA is an association of great scholars obviously.

The team is better than the record indicates. I hope that they keep riding the young guys the rest of the season and get them prepped for next year.

Fun game to watch. It's fun how much we bother OKC, and I love the confidence the young guys are building.

Meanwhile, the Lakers trail the Celtics 70-45 at the half. Now there's a team that knows how to tank.

But it certainly can't be Jeanie's fault, right?

Ulis 14,7,4, and 3 in 21 mins. He was a steal in Rd 2. Sure his height causes him to have a ceiling, but the kid just kows how to play. +17 with him on the floor too.
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

Hiring Magic Johnson was a bad decision. He'll prob trade there draft picks for magic beans

Man, I feel sorry you had to watch that. The Phoenix broadcast on the other hand was joyous!
Synchronicity and all that jazz, man.
