Never been a fan generally.

Can live with teams having one 'special' jersey per season, particularly if it's tied to something relevant. To use the Pels as an example, I don't mind us having a Mardi Gras jersey. If the Griz want to wear a MLK jersey on a couple of dates, also fine. The odd retro jersey is also cool - it has been nice to the old 'Starburst' Suns jersey come out of retirement this year.

But the proliferation of 'limited edition' jerseys is incredibly banal. I believe in business it's called 'brand dilution'. There's a reason why the Lakers, Celtics, Knicks and Bulls jerseys are staple classics. When Milwaukee won Game 6 to clinch the championship last year, they were wearing those black jerseys that have nothing to do with anything. 50 years from now, people are going to wonder what the hell they were wearing.

The NBA also need to sort out home and away jerseys again. If they want to flip it from the old rule, so that home jerseys are the coloured ones and away ones are white, fine. Just institute the rule and be done with it.

Haliburton's passing and IQ are really off the charts. A lot of players rack up assists by handling the ball and passing to shooters coming off screens which is really more coaching than the player creating (Winslow in his Miami days) but Haliburton creates shots with his passes and leads players to scores with his timing and placement, he needs to develop a midrange game to bump up his scoring

I'm hoping Wemby lands in San Antonio

It's best for everyone if he ends up in the West

Cream City and Clit (Bucks v Hornets) jerseys must be worn at the same time some day

Every team should have their home and road with a 3rd with the colours flipped.

Geez, OKC are fun to watch.

Young teams balling of late, Magic and now Thunder..

Talent level in the A right now is through the roof.

When did Josh Hart become such a dominant force on the offensive glass.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Happy to see Kemba Walker put up 24 points for Mavs.

Suns really don't like NO.

Suns really don't like NO.

Is that where Kim K and Chris Paul hooked up?

Is one of the best wing rebounders in the league, has been for a while.

Suns really don't like NO.

And we really don't like the Jazz, and the Jazz really don't like the Bucks, and the Bucks really don't like the Griz, and the Griz really don't like the Thunder.

I think it means that OKC are now championship certainties.

Always been good for his size but didn't expect to see he's up to 2orpg double his career average.

Probably a good thing for them - Jerami Grant has some real skills, but he's a terrible rebounder for his size.

Please no OT in Cleveland. My eyes.. the goggles do nothing

 

[Son of Skeletor]

How to blow a 24 point lead in six minutes, by your New Orleans Pelicans.

Please no OT in Cleveland. My eyes.. the goggles do nothing

5-0 or something in OT, ugly wins. Need better offense, it’s embarrassing atm
