Maybe Lance finally found a home ? He's getting the opportunity with Memphis on life support at the moment.

It sure looks like it. I've never liked Lance but it'll be cool if he can revert to Pacers Lance. Hornets Lance was horrible and Clippers Lance was rarely utilized.

I'm sure Raptors prefer Pacers over Heat and Bulls. They got the X factor Big Smack Pacers > Heat, Hornets >>>>>> Bulls Even the playoffs are about different games, I won't bet on Raps against Bulls.

Games on tonight
Cavailers vs Magic Thunder vs Sixers Kings vs Pistons Celtics vs Raptors Timberwolves vs Rockets Trail Blazers vs Pelicans Warriors vs Mavericks Suns vs Lakers
C's vs Raps is the only game featuring 2 teams over .500+ (both teams are at least 10 games over). Raps will play better tonight even if it's on a back to back.
Important game for the tank wars tonight with the Suns vs Lakers. Lakers might just chuck and win it.

I hope that the Lakers lose but I doubt it happens.

A part of me thinks Timberwolves will beat the Rockets, but I'll go on the safe side with the Rockets as well. I think Celtics will beat the Raptors. Raptors are off a back to back game.

Yeah, that's kinda my only concern. Still, the star had off games last night and I expect them to impose their will on Boston.

I would rather have the Celtics play the Hornets rather than play the Heat in the playoffs...

Is Bosh back for the playoffs? I've seen rumors but nothing substantial.
Heat can be dangerous either way though, Deng has stepped up his game since Bosh went out and I've noticed some bigger games from Winslow as well.

Josh Richardson been shooting lights out too, a few .609-.700 fg games recently.

Either team is going to be tough, just rather have the lesser of two evils

He's first man off the bench, along with Winslow. Which speaks volumes because Spo is cut from the same Riley cloth of leaning much more on vets and not really rookies unless they prove themselves committed on the defensive end and whatever else criteria it is that they use. him getting more shine+the addition of joe johnson/deng at the 4 spot changes the pace and space on the offensive end. earlier on in the year the Heat's offense could be very painful, with scoring 100 not being very feasible unless the game went to OT...now 100 is on the lower end for this team standards Jrich (locked down to a very favourable deal i believe), Winslow, Tyler Johnson, and Whiteside entering his prime makes the Heat's future look very bright. hopefully Wade isn't looking like Kobe on the lakers now

Deng seems to have emerged only after Bosh went out and Miami generally looks to be humming with what they have now.

Deng seems to have emerged only after Bosh went out and Miami generally looks to be humming with what they have now. Deng was solid, but wasn't really as active when he was playing SF. Now he's running around more, grabbing more boards, etc instead of kind of hanging around the perimeter waiting for the ball. If Bosh returns, I'd like to see Deng remain at the 4 and Bosh at the 5 (whiteside isn't currently starting anyway, amare is, and Hassan doesn't seem malcontent over it at all). That may already be the plan since Whiteside should reasonably be starting over Amare, who is looking a bit like his Dallas stint and not really bad at all on defense, but still isn't fucking Whiteside.

Hello fellow internet basketball fans, I'm totally new here. I hope to be a valuable contributor to your community.
Also, is this where I can argue Kobe vs Lebron?

I dont think the bulls are as good as the pacers at the moment. The Bulls have been putrid from everything Ive seen.

I am guessing they make the playoffs and get swept first round, then blow up the roster in the offseason. Barring Rose or Jimmy taking it up a notch, the Bulls aren't making it. Too many injuries, too little defense, not enough offense. Also not a super easy schedule.. Jazz/Kings, home and home with Knicks, @magic, Hawks, @pacers, @ Rockets, Pistons, @bucks, @grizz, @heat, Cavs, @nop, And 76ers. Not horrible, but kinda rough especially for a mediocre team.

Is it just me or does the league just seem like utter shit this year? I mean, GS and SA are great, but it seems like there are only a few other teams worth watching.

It feels like there's more blowouts and "the other team is kinda down by 10 the whole time but never really was in it" games than ever before. It's what happens when everyone is forcing up meme shots. What truly sucks is how much everyone is fellating it as if this is the pinnacle of aesthetic basketball when it's not all that drama filled or especially inspiring to watch on a given night. Apologies for going diet 3ball-mode, but I kinda get where the oldheads and era stans are coming from when they detract from the otherwise historic Warriors

Watching the warriors is fun because they just hit insane shots. Well, Curry and Klay do. The rockets are the other side of the coin. Not a great shooting team but they force up those 3s as much as possible because they think it give them a statistical advantage, and its abhorrent bball, and a lot of teams are desperate to try the same thing.

The only thing casual fans and dumbass pseudo experts of media see in the Warriors are 3pt shooting, and the discourse affects the less competent staff on other teams which means we get chuck fests instead of proper basketball.
