    Great day of basketball yesterday
    I watched three of the five games to their completion and throughly enjoyed it. I think the demise of the league is overstated in many circles and there's no way owners are giving up those extra home dates to start the season on Christmas.

    I do think the game could benefit from some changes....however I feel like all three major sports require changes (sorry hockey).

    perhaps but I see no scenario where they reduce the schedule from 82 games, which is something anybody works in an arena in concessions, security, etc never wants to hear about.

    I know. Ideally I think it would be better with a lesser schedule though.

    Just not MJ's killer instinct.
    Kobe had that, Edwards has yet to show it.

    Anyone else forget to cancel notifications for Adrian Wojnarowski? 

    Woj bomb tweets don't quite pack the same kind of punch as they used to. Haha

    dallas fans don’t seem to be too happy about this.

    I saw it on the ticker about three times last night before I realized it was a trade. I thought they were touting some upcoming game i.e. luka vs. AD.

    both are currently “injured.” of course they are. that said, I think the mavs are out of their minds.

    Luka must have quietly ballooned to 350 lbs. from eating BBQ while hurt and the Mavs delt hi before the Lakers could see a picture.

    “street clothes” davis is out a lot, too. I just did the math…both have averaged 60 games per year in their careers. only joel embiid would think that’s a lot.

    60 games is like 3 seasons for Glass Joel.

    F-in Luka sitting on my IL in fantasy for a month plus has been real helpful. Was surprised to see this trade pop up, but the age difference alone gives the W to the Lakers on this. Huge defensive loss though. Luka should be able to keep the weight down until at least he's 30 and locked into a supermax deal 😅 . Both have plenty of underlying health issues.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    shows you how dead the NBA is that this mega trade and the DeAaron Fox trade is drawing crickets. No one except the Philly guys give a shit.

    The NBA isn't dead but they do a lot of stupid things. Like having the trade deadline occur during Super Bowl week. 

    Fox and Wemby on the same team is gonna be a lot of fun.
