Rewatching the Wizards/Nets game this morning and Westbrook is truly an offensive black hole. He sucks the life out of every possession where he touches the ball

jcardstore · 02-01-2021, 08:03 AM

I wish there was a stat for total touches per possession with and without WB on the floor

Sure looks done to me... nights like this are why we are basketball fans.

The Nets found their cryptonite

I'm happy for my Wiz, but let's not get out of hand here. One game does not make a pattern. I sure hope he is 'back' now that he is on 'two legs,' but I'm still seeing flashbacks of John Wall outplaying him just days ago...

So good? We may have much different opinions of what's "good".

You got problems.

He's gonna be the nail in the coffin to run Beal out of there

It seems they were 6th in the league in Defensive Rating that season... what's your definition of 'good'?

It's ok, his boy RW took advantage of the worst defense in NBA history, let him have this one.

I don’t want to start a new thread, and be accused of pumping a guy, but every time I see Charlotte Hornets highlights, Miles Bridges seems to always be violently dunking on someone. I can see his stats, but does anyone else have actual opinion on him? Is he a role player? Solid Contributor? Possible star? Just curious is all, as I dont get to actually watch Hornet games.

I've noticed the same thing. Its tough and id have to guess that he may never reach full superstar. But he has incredible dunks which other players who arent stars have had but he has some skills. He is intriguing definitely a human highlight reel. Could have value if he ever went to a contender.

Rockets can't miss. 48 points in the first quarter

Miles Bridges’ dunks are a thing of beauty. It’s like the man is perpetually competing in an in-game dunk contest.

They’re about to rip Hoops Premium on the NBA TV broadcast of the Mavs game.

Grant Hill pulled Zion.

molly1984 · 02-01-2021, 09:09 PM

I saw that! I was thinking did Panini hook them with a loaded pack

and it was a variation i think.

He's more than a role player so I'd say solid contributor. Right now his points come off of spot up 3's and he's usually good for one dunk a game. He doesn't create on his own, it's usually one of the guards driving and then kicking out to him. His growth is kind of stunted this year with the Hornets bringing in Hayward in the offseason.

He kind of reminds me of Desmond Mason 2.0 probably won’t be a star but could see decent hobby love.

Tarheelsfan2012 · 02-01-2021, 09:52 PM

Malik Monk has been on fire tonight

CFRx · 02-01-2021, 09:55 PM

Lauri Markkanen back to back 30 point games. Great to see his resurgence this year after a disappointing sophomore season.

Dame · 02-01-2021, 10:10 PM

MJ finally got a nice young squad. Really fun to watch to.

Hayward back to All-Star form. LaMelo continues to impress.

Miami OTOH, they're at the risk of missing the playoffs this year. Who would've thought?

Fox taking extra joy in faking Lonzo out of the building was awesome

brothertona · 02-01-2021, 10:18 PM

I hate that in a game where the Hawks played the defending champs to the limit is overshadowed by a dumb fan experience.

Not having Jimmy Butler has killed the Heat. They need his passion and intensity.

daeve · 02-01-2021, 10:20 PM

Monk splashing his 9th 3 in Bam's eye ... is this it? Does he finally get some PT now?
