Aaron Gordon and that insane series of events at the half probably swing the series permanently.

It’s interesting to watch Minnesota and okc slide for the same kind of reasons. Murray and pj Washington have not just stepped up, they’ve dominated. Where are these guys for okc and Minnesota? It’s not like shai or Edwards are ball hogs. They just don’t have the firepower outside these guys.

Jalen Williams has been decent enough but holmgren, and pretty much all of minnesotas not Ant guys have not been good.

I still don’t get how anybody could possibly hate watching Jokic play basketball.

KAT going 5/18 was the killer.

Do you like watching Tom Brady play football? Slow, unathletic, annoying, but just has the skill and knows how to play the game. No its not fun to watch.

You think what Jokic does on the basketball court is comparable to throwing quick checkdowns for 5 yards?

Similar concept. Mahomes is Anthony Edwards. Flashy, explosive, fun to watch. Brady is Jokic. plodding, skilled, and you struggle to figure out how he can be so good but you know he is.

You make Jokic sound like Tim Duncan.

The guy is fun to watch. He does it all.

Not with you on that. I mean better comparison is Tim Duncan who was kind of boring to watch. But Jokic has a lot more range in being able to do some things outside but more importantly how he quarterbacks a really smooth offense. It’s refreshing in a league that for many years had so many iso volume shooters.

Oof. Bill Simmons said in a throwaway line on his podcast TNT lost the NBA. Means Inside the NBA is all but dead as we know it. Super sad.

Oh, man, I hope not.

Not surprising given what NBC was offering and the fact that they'll give the NBA a primetime spot on network television. Next year will be the last of Inside then and I assume Barkley will then go to the highest bidder between ESPN/ABC and NBC.

No clue how anybody watches this and thinks Tom Brady.

I don’t like that he makes Bronco fans happy

They have separate contracts with warner media so yea it'd be dead.
