That Zubac trade is huge (no pun intended) for Indy.  I expect them to be very formidable next year Hali back.

Giannis announces today he is a stakeholder in Kalshi.

No conflicts there at all.

Man shameless tanking is funny and shocking that the NBA won't do anything about it.  Jazz in a close game with the Jazz.  Hardy benches his starters late allowing the Magic to come back and take the lead.  Keeps the on the bench. And if it wasn't obvious enough by that point, Magic hit two FTs to take a 3 pt lead with 9 seconds left.  Hardy doesn't call a TO on the inbound off the made FT. The Jazz bring it up, Collier gets double teamed, Hardy watches with arms crossed, still holding the TO, as Collier throws up a wild one armed shot that falls 8 feet short

I don't feel sorry for gamblers.

With every loss, one hopes the Bucks are closer to realizing that pushing for the play-in game is would be pointless and detrimental to their outlook

Glad Kam beat the Knicks. Hope they suck now that they portaled over Kolek.

Watching any of these tank offs and there isnt a compelling argument for NBA expansion. There are some truly mid players on NBA rosters, good lord.  The number of absolutely bricked jumpers makes you appreciate some of the stars in the league

Speaking of tank offs, Kam Jones with a step back game winner in a tank battle against the Nets

I think they're actually gonna push for it and make it, especially if Giannis is back next week as some are indicating. Really manageable schedule after the break.

I do agree it's pointless, though.
