• Embiid puts up 50, reveals Bell's palsy diagnosis

According to Andrew Marchand, Amazon has reached a deal for a significant piece of the NBA's regular and postseason games on Prime in their next TV contract, which starts the '25-'26 season. ESPN/ABC is also expected to be re-upping, with the Finals staying on ABC. TNT and NBC are said to still be bidding on the final piece of the league's national TV package. Would be odd if TNT loses out, not only have they been with the league since 1984, but no idea what they'd do with Shaq/Ernie/Kenny/Chuck.

Maybe Kevin Durant can join the Nuggets next season.

Suns tried to build a superteam for an NBA that no longer exists

Now that the Lakers lost, I'm guessing the coach will take most of the blame and ultimately be fired.

Then the GM will draft his son.

Adam Silver channeled his inner Bart Giamatti and banned Raptors C Jontay Porter from the league for life for violating gambling rules, including feeding confidential information to bettors.

 

 

Suffice to say this has not been a banner week for the Porter family.

Good freakin Lord, someone needs to do an intervention on the whole damn family.

Mavs took down the Clippers to advance. Feels like a changing of the guard is in full swing to a younger group of stars. Look at the some of the names that didn't make it past the 1st Rd: Durant/Beal, LBJ/Davis, Kawhi/PG/Harden, Curry, Lillard.

Mavs or Thunder in Round 2?

[BSLMikeLowe]

Mavs in 6.

[BSLChrisStoner]

I understand taking the Mavs... but I don't think they have enough size to make OKC pay. (Gafford and Lively are something, but obviously not the Mavs focus.)

I think the Thunder can win that series.

Is Luka playing up his issues or is he really less than 100%? Mavs are small favorites. Gut tells me there may be some value on OKC but I dont really watch NBA enough to confidently bet it

Luka looked slow even for him vs. the Clippers.  Some atrocious defense.
