Oh look, shooting 50% from 3 and playing terrible defense is not a sustainably successful strategy Boston!
Warriors gave up 46 points in the first Q to the Nets. They vastly improved their defensive effort in the 2nd Q only giving up 45 points. 91-51 at half time.
Theyâre providing some nice cover for Boston who would only be up one against the fucking Pacers if you took away all of their 2nd Q points.
Obviously they ran hot to start, but their offense has completely broken down. Itâs all just standing around now, but itâs truly insane that every single player on the team now shoots 25% on 3s.
Derrick White is a tire fire.
On the plus side Wiseman is 7/7 from the field!
In December:
Hauser: 28.2%
Horford: 30.8%
Brogdon: 38.1%
White: 21.6%
Williams: 42.1% - dudeâs gonna get paiiiiid.
Griffin: 30.8%
Pritchard: 20.0%
Kornetâs only taken one and it was an end of shotclock heave. For good measure, both Tatum and Brown are around 33%.
Regression, baby!
Wtf is that?
This shit is painful. They smoked like 10 layups last night too.
Tatum was amazing after the uncalled slap to the face though. He finally remembered heâs the best player on the court. They should consider hiring Will Smith to as a pre-game slap specialist.
The reliance on threes really creates a lot of variance for teams. I think it is why last yearâs playoffs was so erratic going from blow out to blow out. You hit threes at a hot rate you will blow the other guys out and vice versa.
Obviously Boston had other worldly shooting especially from non stars, so they were always going to regress some. I also think itâs why so many teams middling close to .500 this year.
The lakers are not a good team.
With AD out the only team that can make the play in currently on the outside is GSW.
For the east I guess the bulls and wizards, but both should tear it down.
Maaaaybe the magic.
And this was luka pulling up for the game today:
That Camaro in the back is his.

Does NBA have the upgrade your seats app thing like MLB? I went to Nets Cavs last night on free tix and was hoping I could switch them to something good but couldnât figure it out. Darius Garland was the best player on the court, Spida didnât look right, everyone else was awful especially Mobley, Nets couldnât miss, TJ Warren looked great and was probably the difference in the game, like a regenerated bionic jungle cat. Katie obv gonna get his on bad 18 ft contested jumpers, and I have no idea why they kept trying to switch or double that. Monday afternoon in downtown Cleveland in late December blows and I wouldnât recommend it.
I finished the Shaq documentary, hosted by Shaq, over the weekend. It was decent but no Last Dance by any stretch.
Luka is insane
Luka with the classic 60 points 21 rebs 10 asts game

Was such an amazing game to watch. Not going to lie I was going to turn game off when the mavs were down 9 w 33 seconds left. Only reason I didnât turn it off is laziness. Being lazy paid off.
Cuban should face jail time for the teams he built around luka. Like this historic game and comeback was at home against a knicks without brunson and barrett. Quickley and someone called mcbride played 100 mins in the back court and shot 2-20 from 3.
Theres also no bright spot there. An old team who gonna throw money at woods now but he cant play d. Bad coach. No draft capital. They gonna waste luka

Luka is a great regular season player, but Iâm not sold on him as the centerpiece of a title team.
