Anyone keeping up with Kawhi? Why's he always out for a game or two every other week? Is it still that knee/leg or whatever?


yeah they're just being cautious with his quad from what I know

I don't believe there have been any re-aggravations of it explicitly reported, though I do recall he missed a string of games in a row somewhat recently which suggests maybe he felt some soreness or something minor like that.

It seems to be working for them and I think it's a smart move. Probably can't hurt their chances at re-signing him either.

Raptors have a real shot at winning the title this year. That team is stacked, they have star quality, experience, good defense, good shooters.
That defense will suffocate teams in the playoffs.
Lowry is a bull at PG.
Kawhi is a perennial DPOY candidate
Siakam is long and athletic
Both Ibaka and Gasol are former DPOY.

Thats 3 former DPOY on the same team. Thats crazy.

Edit: Ibaka didnt actually win the DPOY. Thought he did for some reason... Anyway he came in 2nd place. Still good.

Hornets down 36 to 71 at half time, you don’t see those kind of basketball scores unless it’s a women’s college basketball.

They picked up Lin too. He'll torch the majority of backup guards he'll face. Crazy roster. Almost like something out of the West....

Rising Stars should do a draft like the All-Star game. I was never fond of the USA vs World format.

I wouldn't mind Noel. Nice defensive 5. Guards the perimeter. Lob threat.

The Cavaliers are 5-1 in their last 6 since Kevin Love returned from injury.

Barkley clowning Bron on TNT post game show. Said he would send Bron a ticket and put him up in a 1st class hotel if he comes to be a analyst on TNT for the playoffs because he won't have anything else to do..

Yes it was. Westbrook's changed his game. He's putting the ball in PG13's hands. He's not shooting well lately. Westbrook and PG13 are making OKC a place where FA may want to play. They'll make the playoffs and go out in the 1st round.

Per @Covers_Vegas, MGM took a $310K ML bet on #WeTheNorth at -420 on road vs. #BeTheFight tonight. Raptors were 8.5-pt favorites.

The Cavs won 126-101.

Tough way to start the week for one bettor.

I do not care for the guy....the whole time he was here in Orlando, and especially after he left.....a lot of noise about him being a huge dbag....very disliked in the locker room and by team/facilities staff.
