AJ Griffin sealing the game at 6:09... what a night for him. Once in a while you get a coaches' kid who just knows how to play, looking like the steal of the draft so far.

BeastMode27 · 11-07-2022, 10:18 PM

That second half was mostly the Hawks reserves beating the Bucks starters. 3rd youngest player in the draft, AJ Griffin, is IMPRESSIVE.

The 1972 Miami Dolphins will be popping champagne tonight!!

The thought was he would be a spot up shooter at the beginning, he’s definitely showing traits of more.

Luka has 23 of the 28 points scored by Dallas starters at halftime. That is both amazing and absolutely pathetic. What a horrible job putting a team around Luka.

good thing the bench has 25 points on 59% shooting.

pingbling23 · 11-07-2022, 10:51 PM

lakers shooting 68% and down by double digits, ugh.

bigjbasketball · 11-07-2022, 10:54 PM

Michell lighting it up again…I have been having so much fun watching the Cavs this year, they’ve gotta be #1 on every opinionated best league pass team list.

oldgoldy97 · 11-07-2022, 11:16 PM

Wolves absolutely suck. What a horrible franchise. Any chance at retraction?

hairyangryfella · 11-07-2022, 11:24 PM

My goodness, Jazz up 76-71 at HALFTIME?!! 90s players are turning in their graves.

How has Westbrook scored 18 pts (second on team so far) and be -16 (worst on team by 8!)???

That's the problem with the Mavs. It's Luka and Dinwiddie and no one else.

During the playoffs... teams will force the "others" to score and if they can't... Mavs will have trouble advancing to the Finals. They got close last year....Luka will always get his.. but late in games... defenses will get the ball out of Lukas hands and you rely on the "others"

If Tatum keeps getting to the line like this he’s going to put up some pretty big offensive numbers. He’s always been a little streaky, free throws are only going to help stabilize his scoring night to night.

Siberian13 · 11-07-2022, 11:40 PM

Go Hawnks!

Man, KD looks old.

lost his FT streak to lose the game too - looked like a bad foul by DFS, and turned out to seal the game after KD's missed FT.

Klay hacked the heck out of Huerter on that last shot. Ridiculous no call.

Let’s pump the brakes, he’s playing 12mpg and this was his only good game but besides that… he was projected by some as a top 5 pick if not for the injury concerns.

Let’s not call steal of the draft after a single good game

If that was the measure Harry Giles would have been MVP by now

jcardstore · 11-08-2022, 06:09 AM

If anyone is the steal of the draft not named Paolo since he went #1, its Mathurin. Man that kid is awesome.

packman80 · 11-08-2022, 06:30 AM

No shock that I see NBAPA is defending Irving saying he's not antisemtic saying there is a difference between what someone says and what someone posts a link to something. Also said the punishment was excessive for him. Bad look for NBAPA to defend Irving.

Both these kids balled out in the tournament when it really counted.

How about they just say that Irving has asked for their support in an appeal and that the league will support any player that request their support. Going on talking about how he's not racist is a bad look.
