Nice job by the Bucks.

We'll get to see over the next few years if Holiday, Giannis and Middleton are good enough stars for the "you need 3 stars to win championships" rule to bring a title to Milwaukee.

The Bucks should have fun tonight against the Hornets' JV squad.

If Milwaukee loses, Bud should be fired before the postgame press conference.

Yeah ... I didn’t know the Bucks were gonna play their backup JV team.

Hornets needed the game a lot more than the Bucks did.

Zach Lavine had 39 in the first half last night for the Bulls, 7/9 from 3, and they were cruising over the Hawks. My friends were going crazy, talking about 60.

Lavine scuffles in the second half, doesn’t hit another 3, and the Bulls end up scoring less in the second half than Lavine had himself in the first, until a pair of garbage time baskets, one of which got Lavine to 50. Brutal

Thanks for nothing, Bulls. Wanted you to win this game!

Alex Rodriguez and Marc Lore are purchasing a minority stake in the Minnesota Timberwolves, with plans to take control of the franchise in two years.

So, where will they be playing then? My money is on them evolving into the Seattle Sonicwolves.

Well, the name of the arena is “Climate Pledge” so it will be spared.

Considering Howard Schultz’s legacy in Seattle sports that was never going to happen...but it should have. Brilliant!

Of course ... but I loved the name.

Kraken? Quite silly ... though they do have a pretty cool logo.

100%. Great logo, not so great name. I was hoping for Sockeyes.

Jamal Murray tearing his ACL really blows.  I love watching the Nuggets.

Its terrible.  Ive never been an Aaron Gordon fan, but that was a really nice trade and they were playing fantastic since he joined.  Facu and Jokic are the best and most creative passing duo in the league and the team just plays really fun basketball.  Just a gut punch

A friend of mine just shared this stat:

There are only three players in the history of the NBA that have recorded 40 or more games of 10 assiata and zero turnovers in their career.  Jason Kidd is 4th with 27 games. Without looking can you guess the top 3?

Magic? But probably Lebron.

I can't imagine Harden has had that many 0 assist games.

I'm disappointed in you all.  My only hint is he is not a Hall of Famer.
