Westhead Nuggets would score 140 and allow 160.
That team made the SSOL Suns look the Bad Boy Pistons defensively ...
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

Suns once scored 107 in the first half against that team.

Ceballos scored 32 pts. in 23 minutes in that game. November 1990.

If you look at his stats/performance, his attitude, the way his team is performing, his age, his injury history ... A few teams are going to want him, but they'll want him to come cheap and/or take a reduced role. He's just not a star any more.
For sure... And I also thought this was completely ridiculous when I first saw the news. But then I thought about it and felt that this was probably Rose's people posturing to maximize whatever deal they can for him. If they don't make their intentions known, he might get the Terrence Jones treatment...

George Hill is shooting lights out since he returned from injury. He's at 52% from the field and 49% from 3 in 16 games. Utah is putting the screws to Detroit right now. Absolutely crushing them by 26.
Go Suns!

Hill has been very good all year. It'll be interesting to see if his numbers hold up. Big time candidate for MIP

https://twitter.com/IAmDPick/status/820732397851381761 This thrills me to no end. I'm so happy for Austin. I never thought he would play again. He already only has one working eye, but Marfan's syndrome is apparently very serious. It would really be something if he were to make it to the NBA some day.
Go Suns!

That's awesome. Does the video stop at the 3 second mark for everybody else too?

I'm seeing everything up to him getting the And1 and the whistle. From my Android phone, Chrome browser.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Yeah, you're right. It works on my iPhone but not in my chrome browser on my computer.

Warriors crushing the Cavs right now on TNT. Up 20+ early in the 2ND quarter. Warriors scoring with ease

They were out there looking for blood after the first game in Cleveland. The Ws are not going to lose if Iggy (and Livingston) is giving them buckets. On the other hand, Cleveland needs everything to absolutely click at the same time to have a real chance.

Did you catch any of the 76rs-Bucks? Philly won. Embiid lived at the FT line (some questionable calls on the Freak, who fouled out). Luwawu is a very interesting prospect, could be a role player in the mold of a Courtney Lee. Jahlil is clearly out of place. Sergio Rodriguez really directs the kids the way it should be done (FA next summer). It's cray how Plumlee and Teletovic basically didn't play (four minutes combined) when together they make $23M. Milwaukee is also employing Beasley and Snell at SF (25 and 29 miunutes haha). Despite his numbers, Monroe is a liability on both sides (it's crazy the number of gimmies he botches).

I was following the box score a bit, but didn't catch any of the game. Philly is starting to play pretty good. They have beat a few teams recently, I think they might have won 4 of 5.

The Warriors really trounced the Cavs. Won by around 35 points. Curry was spectacular, and Durant played some amazing D including a NASTY block on Lebron, and Draymond had a triple-double. Here's the block:
