The rules for Covid are so ridiculous that it's tough to keep them straight lol

Pretty much the entire season has been an embarrassment for the league.

You've got the refusal to regionalize divisions/schedules (like the NHL has done) in order to minimize travel.

You've got the haphazard implementation of COVID policies.

You've got the decision to hold a pointless All-Star Game that nobody wants, just to satisfy TV.

Only good thing the league has come up with this year is the idea of teams playing two consecutive away games in the same city.

Ouch it sounds like PG13 could be out for the next 20 or so games. Tough break for the Clippers.

And to think just a few months ago Silver was being lauded for having the bubble work out so well.

But let’s ship them all to Atlanta so they can generate some revenue

daeve · 02-06-2021, 07:51 PM

I was still at work so I didn't get to see Jokic drop 50, sucks it came in a loss though, but that'll happen with the starting backcourt out. This would've been a great game for MPJ to show out but seems he struggled.

Tarheelsfan2012 · 02-06-2021, 08:53 PM

Fun fact, the Kings are 9-2 this year when Harrison Barnes scores 20 or more points.

ninjacookies · 02-06-2021, 08:58 PM

Holmes put up a respectable statline vs. Jokic. Unfortunately Nuggets still lack rim protection.

Kings are going to be pesky all year. We saw glimpses of it late last season right before the bubble.

The Suns and them will be right there in the thick of things.

hairyangryfella · 02-06-2021, 09:27 PM

Mo Bamba finally gets more than a few min and puts up some nice numbers! Of course it was in a blowout but those are the only minutes he gets nowadays. A-hole coach.

ninjacookies · 02-06-2021, 10:07 PM

I just tuned in. Does Stephanie really have 41 early in the 3rd?

Boi hit that Soul Train shoulder shimmy after nailing it from the logo.

He also shot 5 in a row from the logo in pre-game shoot around

No players better either.

Spacemanspif · 02-06-2021, 10:52 PM

Looool Mark Jackson still mad about being booted from the Warriors and JVG backing him up. Anyone but Draymond that’s a flagrant

IceTrae11 · 02-06-2021, 10:53 PM

Thank God they called a common foul on that. Easy

Kingofkings1281 · 02-06-2021, 11:08 PM

Ja Morant guarding Zion one on one and they don’t look his way once. Contested 3’a from Eric Bledsoe is a much better option apparently.

mfw13 · 02-06-2021, 11:13 PM

Hole in review rules rears it's head again....prior to Doncic's 3 with 44 seconds left, Porzingis bobbled the ball and it hit the line, before being passed back to Doncic.

Should have been Warriors ball down 4, instead of down 7.

However, because no call was made, it's not reviewable....

jubei777 · 02-06-2021, 11:19 PM

Steph with a crazy night. Too bad in a loss.

To me he's a safe bet, he's a generational talent. It makes sense.

When was the last time two guys drop 50 on the same night and both lose?

I don’t disagree with those being common fouls, it’s just inconsistent with the way it’s normally called. I could probably find 10 “flagrants” that look the exact same from this season. Grabbing a guy by the shoulders or neck, or any contact to the head is typically automatic. Can’t claim a play on the ball when you’re grabbing the shoulder, need to at least make contact at the elbow or higher

That was frustrating. Of course the announcing crew were like “oh wellz, but yay Luka”. Guarantee that crew would have made a stink if it was the other way

What was annoying was that the crew pointed out that Porzingis bobbled the ball on the line, then ABC went to commercial, and then nothing more was said about it.

No explanation, nothing....I expected to come back and see the deficit reduced to four points, but was completely surprised when it was still seven.

Only figured out that it was not reviewable by looking up the review rules after the game.

Should have been explained by the announcers....

drobfan8 · 02-07-2021, 12:44 AM

The Lakers are gonna quickly become the most annoying team to watch. The constant bitching and moaning over nothing.

Add in they'll win again this season so people will not enjoy that.
