The Nets’ defense made the Heat look impotent in the fourth quarter, their second-worst (net rating) of the season, after scoring nine points on 9.5% shooting. It was like a varsity squad whooping on five randoms at the park. Such a poor showing highlighted the need for reinforcements coming soon in the form of Andrew […]
Andrew Wiggins now wears #22 for the Miami Heat after requesting it. This highlights how badly the relationship ended with Jimmy Butler, who wore the same digits since 2019 until the trade on Wednesday. If Butler was concerned with his number, he should’ve handled his exit with more class. While Wiggins may not have […]
The Nuggets were missing Jamal Murray (knee), Russell Westbrook (hamstring), and Peyton Watson (sprained knee), but it was no problem for them to dispatch the touring Magic. Michael Porter Jr. went on a heater, scoring on cuts and downing his long jumper. And Nikola Jokić recorded his 24th triple-double of the season. The Nuggets […]
Jimmy Butler finally complained his way out of Miami and ruined his reputation with the help of his agent Bernie Lee. The latter is a bully who even went as far as verbally attacking the ESPN reporter, Shams Charania, to taint his credibility but failed. Perhaps Butler will feel contrition in the future for […]
Five Heatles scoring in double-figures wasn’t enough to secure the win because the defense lost its edge and gave up 19 trifectas. To make matters worse, the Bulls scored 16.1 percentage points above the league average in the paint non restricted area. But things were going well early. Duncan Robinson and Kel’el Ware scored […]
The Nuggets fell apart late in New York and squandered an opportunity for a quality win. Jamal Murray carried the team on Nikola Jokić’s down night, but the defense’s failure to cover screen rolls and getting clobbered in transition outweighed his impact. After the game, coach Michael Malone said, “The big stat for me […]
The Nuggets were slain by the Bulls on tour because of their inability to defend the three-point line and could barely hit any treys of their own. After the game, coach Michael Malone blasted his team, saying. “Once again, it was us just messing with the game, thinking we can just show up and […]
Coach Erik Spoelstra should find a way to put Alec Burks into the rotation. He’s a quality veteran and the team needs bodies since it can’t count on Jimmy Butler. Burks is the guy Spoelstra has forgotten about while Terry Rozier logs a good game as often as Pat Riley makes a public appearance. […]
The Nuggets got schooled by their division foes in Minnesota and were always behind. They let the Timberwolves invade their paint for 72 points, the second-most digits given up to an opponent in that spot all year. They showed little resistance on defense and were on their back foot early. It took Nikola Jokić […]
The Nuggets played well for three quarters, then let the Kings, who were playing on a second-straight night, back in the game late because of poor defense before closing the deal. Nikola Jokić recorded his 20th triple-double of the year and 14th before the fourth quarter. “Not every win is going to be where […]
