Dwight with 17 in 24 minutes in a drubbing of Brooklyn.

His defense is fantastic as well. I think SVG is a big fan of his.

Buycks got upgraded from a two way to a standard contract with the Pistons. Awesome news for him

Dwight has been playing well on both offense and defense. The coach was firmly in his corner. Really tremendous news for him. He took a gamble and only took a one year two way contract, instead of the two that was offered and it worked out. I really enjoy his style of play.

Sad news for Vander. Lakers gave up on him. He did not make the most of his opportunity. In addition he had not been shooting well in the G League , either and I think that was what finalized it for him. I know he won't give up on his dream, and will probably stay in the G League for the rest of the year, but he should go overseas next year and make some coin.

Talk about the ultimate kick in the b@#$ls. Lakers cut Vander, renege on Jamil and then sign noted anarchist Nigel Hayes.

Vander is going to Italy to play against Travis and DJO. Fiat Torino also has former Marquette player Trevor Mbakwe.

Happy for Vander. This is the right move for him.

Nice to see D Wade able to finish his career in Miami. Also I believe Jae will be better off in Utah.

Jae had to be removed from the facility after fighting with LeBron.

Who wins that bare knuckle match?

That was a fake story.

And they're basketball players, it's almost always just a stare down and some pushing.

Agreed. Hoping he's not too seriously hurt.

The basketball gods were not happy that Jimmy "rested" during the NBA All-Star game.

Reportedly, Jimmy had a meniscal tear as opposed to ligament damage.
Timeline 4-6 weeks. Could've been worse!

Not for my first place fantasy team that just lost a top-7 player 2 weeks before the playoffs.

Dwight Buycks has been getting some playing time lately for the Pistons. Three straight 12 point games off the bench. He seems to be very effective when he is in the game.

Herman Cain · « **Reply #246 on:** March 02, 2018, 10:46:02 AM »

Dwyane Wade has had some strong performances the last couple of days with the Heat. Heat are making a stretch run for the playoffs and Wade is a key component for them.

Definitely some interesting tweets and takes going on there...not sure why JFB was approving/applauding Teague's play against Rubio - was a cheap shot.

(Patient Minnesota-splaining). It’s because Jimmy has been trying to get the Minnesota-nice Timberwolves to play with some fire and intensity. The tackle was whack, but it’s the attitude Jimmy wants to see.
