Amazing that it was Lamb that did that - watched Charlotte lose to the 76ers last week where Lamb botched a pretty open lay-up that would have sent the game into O/T.
I bet if you offered him $1000 to do it again your money would be safe. It was a total heave

@mariner4life another player that OKC traded away and is not a solid 15ppg player....

The looooong NBA regular season is finally drawing to a close. Top 8 in the West was settled a week ago at least, but there are still 9 in contention in the East.
In the East, 1st, 2nd and 3rd all locked in. 4th and 5th need to sort their order, while 6-9 still need to sort out who makes it, and in which order. Good luck picking nearly every series throughout their playoffs.
In the West 1st is locked, you would think 2nd as well, and then probably 3rd and 4th unless the Rockets suddenly fuck up. Then it is just 5&6, and 7&8 sorting out their order. To be honest i can't really see any of the first rounds going against home court advantage unless the Thunder suddenly, miraculously get hot again.

@mariner4life very real chance of the Heat getting to the playoffs and that for me would be deserved icing on the cake for Flash. Great career regardless of the playoff chances. If they make it, it just continues what has been a fun year of jersey swapping and buzzer beaters. Legend.

@raznomore vs the Lakers B team......
-
@KiwiMurph yip and with your team mates moving out of the way and missing shots to make it happen. Rubbish.
He is such a good player, and yes the thunder win more when he triples up but this isn’t shit man. It’s stat padding at its worst. So fucken hard watching a team that was projected to be the team to give the Warriors the most heat go to settling for probable 8th seed. Doing this type of shit. So not going at GSW with momentum by fighting their way to the west finals. But simply bundled out in a likely swept series.
Poorly coached. Poorly led. Poorly prepared for playoffs. I’ll eat my hat if they get past round one.
I think Adams gets traded if OKC don’t go deep. $100m could buy a pretty good perimeter shooter and a better rim protector...as much as I want Adams to stay I’d think I’d be happy seeing him in another contender where they appreciate his rebounding abilities and blossoming post game.

@raznomore Adams' 30-points per game would be a pretty big enticer for any team aye raz?

@mariner4life that’s never going away is it

no, no it is not.

@mariner4life in saying that you have a guy being fed the ball for the first two quarters and scoring 13-15 points in one quarter sometimes then not given A sniff of offense for the remaining 2 quarters.
When they run offense through him we are a better team. But old triple king stops giving him the ball. If you had an alpha coach and a smart point guard he’d at least be a 20/10 player.

Agree with this, Adams is criminally underused on offence. At least he's getting well paid tho. He'd be an all star if he was at a franchise that used him properly.

He's smart enough not to get infected by the disease of me. Just sit tight, enjoy his time and take the money. Great team mate to have

Wow
In a stunning move before the Lakers' season finale against Portland, Magic Johnson announced he was stepping down from his role as the team's president of basketball of operations. The decision comes just over two years after taking on the position in an effort to restore one of the league's most storied franchises to championship contention. Johnson made the announcement immediately after coach Luke Walton's pregame comments, adding that he had not yet informed team owner Jeanie Buss of his intentions to step down. "I couldn't face [Buss] to tell her," Johnson admitted while referring to her as "my sister." -

The next hire will be critical, I don't know what they did to piss of Jerry West and make him want to work for the Clippers but they need that man. Otherwise maybe look at getting David Griffin, the one-time Cavs GM who did a very good job during their winning run, is thought of highly by those in the league, and who has a very good relationship with LBJ
