This is incorrect.  I had the terrible misfortune of having to listen to him for about 30 secs during the halftime of that game.  His act is a total embarrassment and he's also been proven to be a fraud.  The overall ESPN studio  coverage of NBA basketball, led by Smith and his buffoonery, is as bad as humanly possible.

So 30 seconds of him makes you unable to root for the Knicks?  Weird.

They just invented this device called a "remote control," on which there is a "mute" button. I recommend you use another recent invention - Google - to do some research on that.

Or he can do the Muggsy thing and be outraged over something completely inconsequential.

Genuinely curious how many O/Us have been affected by the recent trend of completely punting the last minute of games that aren't closer than 2 possessions.  Obviously the leading team dribbling out the last 20 seconds of a game is nothing new, but Ive seen countless shot clock violations taken with plenty of time left on the clock, escalating to dueling shot clock violations in the last minute of a game.

I get not risking injury or prolonging nonsense with fouling in games that are more or less unwinnable, but standing around dribbling for the last 60-70 seconds of the game is so lame and not seen in literally any other professional or college league elsewhere.

If Porzingas plays well it's going to be very difficult to beat Boston.  Unless they choke.

Heat still dirty as hell. Heat Culture.

Uhhhhh......Lillard is launching bombs.  And I mean from deep, deep, range.

44-16 runs (currently) are helpful.

See this is why they had to make that trade. You gotta score in the post season and that's is where they fell apart the last couple seasons.

Yes.  He went medieval for a half but there's still a lot of work to do.

The team still isn't good. But it's nice to get a Dame heater for a half. And to play a roster with very little Playoff experience.

Why in the world would Beverly, Beasley, and Connaughton be on the floor together?

Whoops.  I forgot about Embiid.   I have a feeling Doncic will get it this year.
