Reggie is a nice guy. Really interesting in interviews. Has a lot of insightful things to say about not only basketball but just about everything else. Has one of the better basketball books.

God loving drat I hate his announcing so much.

They don't even slightly try to foul.

I guess congrats to Paul George, renowned bad clutch player, finally getting his gatorade shot.

Lakers hitting 13 threes doesn't happen often. This lineup feels like their most anti-modern NBA but it's been working well.

D-Lo's had the yips since he come back to find himself behind Dinwiddie. He's looked like he's trying too hard I don't know how to describe it. Like he's aiming his shots now or something, sure he's gonna lose

He's always been much worse off the bench. It's probably psychological but he's a guy you definitely need to start to get anything out of him.

I ended up watching everything but the third quarter, and the Spurs are just so good at tempting teams with open shots that are open for a reason. Suns could not resist those shots and could not make them.

I've only seen like five Mav games this year and they actually look okay (not great but not bottom five) when Dirk is on the floor, but they generally don't finish him which makes me think maybe Carlisle is in on the tanking.

Dutchy posted:

I think the logic is that the crunch time offense runs through Barnes and Dirk's a huge liability defensively and rebounding but the mavs are like 2-50 in clutch games so we may want to rethink things. Or not, whatever

Also in a curious bit of trivia dirk-powell-barea-yogi-devin harris was one of the best five man units in the entire NBA somehow before the Harris trade

I do understand the logic because I mean the Mavs are going to have to figure out something without Dirk someday and I guess it's best to see if it can be Barnes.
