Deleterious

Trump is now selling insurance to ships passing through the straight. I'm not making that up.

Then Schroeder abused Robinson

That block by Thompson was nice

Not sure why Cade had JB challenge that

I'm at the point where I wonder if Robinson is in the playoff rotation.

Pistons shooting 6-11 from 3 but still down 8.

Watching LeVert dribble the air out of the ball when Cade is on the floor drives me nuts. You get 3 seconds to make a move, if you have nothing after that then give it up

The Cavs going zone while Cade is on the bench is odd. Seems like you would do that for him.

I bet Ron leads the league in banked three pointers made.

Mitchell is out tonight. Stew is back for Detroit.

He was just ejected in their game against Houston for walking onto the floor during a fight, while in street clothes. That is epic level tanking. Just keep getting suspended the rest of the year so you can't play.

It absolutely does not need to go away. And no, him developing a midrange shot would not help his value, it would hurt it. Teams would pray Duren shoots the midrange all game. League averages by distance: At rim: 65–70% Midrange: 40–45% Three-point: 35–38% What that translates to as points per shot Rim: 0.68 × 2 = 1.36 points Midrange: 0.43 × 2 = 0.86 points Three: 0.36 × 3 = 1.08 points If you’re shooting 43% from 18 feet, that’s equivalent to shooting about 29% from three. Congrats, way to spend all of those developmental hours on turning Duren into Ausar Thompson. Get him in a gym this summer shooting thousands of three's. He doesn't have be Steph here, he doesn't have to shoot 40%. 33% is the floor, if he can hit that then defenses at least have to pay attention to him out there. That would create a lot of spacing for Cade and others, unlike Duren shooting the midrange where his defender will still be near the paint.

I figured Houston might go after him. Maybe they don't have money left to spend.

A bit shocked to see him play this season.

Their tax rate is a flat 4% on anything over $10K. I think they are underestimating how much it would take to convince someone to live in Mississippi. Also, all the working stiffs will still be paying state tax.

Instead of not giving a **** about who they pick at 29 you can not give a **** about who they pick at 24.

Good news. OKC won the title last year while only shooting 33% from three. Bad news. OKC shot 37% from three in the regular season last year. The Pistons are only shooting 34% this year.

Giannis is listed as questionable for tonight. Some people are already he will make his return tonight. Bill Simmons is saying Tatum will make his season debut on Friday.

Top 3 is Dybantsa, Peterson, and Boozer in that order. Recently saw Sam talking about the draft. He said for the first time in his career, he has over 30 first round grades. So it could be a deep draft. He has the Pistons taking some 6'2" guard that he calls the best shooter in the draft.

The Atlanta Hawks are holding a promotional night for Magic City. Not much of a pearl clutcher, but an NBA team holding a promotional night for a strip club doesn't seem right. It is kind of funny they are holding it the night they play Orlando.

They are both over a month away. But if the Iran situation is not solved by then, you would think Bahrain and Saudi Arabia would be cancelled.

There is a rumor that on Sunday, Aston Martin will take the formation lap and retire. Lack of engine replacement parts from Honda being the reason.
