OKC with just a 103 oRTG themselves or this thing would be extremely over. Only shot 10-27 in the paint, which accounts for most of their struggles

The Pacers shooting is one of the most ridiculous things I’ve ever seen across this large of a sample

Lmao of course

Think the Thunder did a little too much going small late. Pacers were able to kill them on the glass down the stretch

No team is better than the Pacers at getting horrendous shots from bad shooters to go in

Thunder 6-20 on wide open 3s Pacers 11-22 on wide open 3s Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

I think the biggest problem with the ESPN booth is that neither Doris nor Richard is excitable. Feel like you lose so much of the juice on the broadcast without one of them being hyped

Obi Not Stoppin

Caruso has been unreal

Chet’s screen setting is absolutely inadequate

Five (5) first round picks for Desmond Bane? American????

If you didn’t think the Pacers would shoot 50% from 3, you haven’t been watching

If Lonzo can play, it’s a major on court upgrade. If not, it’s a shortening of the salary slot to better position yourself in the out years. Win win

Clear that the Cavs prioritized bringing Merrill back over Jerome. Must be thinking CPJ/Proctor/Lonzo can replace Jerome’s production

Overall, I think today’s moves make sense for the Cavs in the context of the opportunity they have in the East this year. Seems they aren’t short term thinking to fill the Garland void and are willing to (hopefully) use the regular season to prioritize bench development

The East continues to break in all the right ways for the Cavs

I think it’s quite clear that the Cavs felt Jerome was more easily replaceable than Merrill. I think it’s also clear that the Cavs felt that they needed a slightly different skillset than what Jerome was able to offer

The Nuggets keep doing good things

It’s very funny that this includes Bronny

If Kevin doesn’t retire, let’s run it back #comeHome
