Kuzma's just not that good. Not even as good as Oubre.

Right. If the roles were swapped, LA wouldn't be looking to get rid of Kelly, and we would hate that we were paying Kuz 15M/season.

The Jimmy Butler/TJ Warren stuff is pretty funny. I don't think sane people actually want them to fight, but it's great to see that not everyone in the league are buddies with each other.

For the record, I've set the line at Butler -140. We all know TJ Warren is made of glass.

TJ had some crazy in his eyes there. It’s the quiet ones.

Also, he got a concussion when he gave Jimmy Butler the finger.

Jimmy Butler would fuck TJ Warren up. I don't know what TJs thinking.

I disagree. Butler is all talk. Kind of like Pat Bev in that way. Like bazz said, it is always the quiet ones.

I guess we'll find out in March. Hopefully TJs playing.

"Hold me back!" as Jalen Rose would say...

I'm still waiting for Butler to do anything in the league that warrants his rep as a player or a tough guy.

I used to love him his 1st and 2nd yr in the league, now he's just an overrated diva.

Come on guys, video or it didn’t happen. You seriously going to make me google?!

I enjoyed these clips of Joker making game winners.

None of these guys really want to fight. They just want to get all puffed up.

36 points, 7 rebounds for Kuzma tonight to lead the LeBron/AD-less Lakers to a win over OKC.

As badly as we've played lately, we're 1.5 games out of the 8 seed behind Memphis:

If we went on a little run, I suspect we'd pass MEM / POR / SAS to grab that 8th seed.

Side note: Kudos to OKC on being such a solid team after their Westbrook trade.

They got a great haul for George.

Yeah, James Jones was selling this too.

Conversely, the Suns are 2 games out from being the second worst team in the Western Conference.

So to be clear, there are are only 7 good teams in the Western Conference. Fortunately for the rest of the conference not named Golden State, the NBA will not adjust the requirement to have 8 teams make the playoffs.

No objective person thinks the Suns are playing like a team who should be in the playoffs, but they're certainly not the first team to be in the same position. It's been happening in the Eastern Conference for years.

Suns are not playing like a team deserving of the playoffs. Could they grow into one over the course of the season? I think the talent is there no doubt, a lot of growth would need to happen though. Nice to be in a position to be able to have growing pains and still remain in contention so that if they do happen to click, it’s not too late necessarily.
