Someone put Bernie (he of the Weekend at) behind home plate for a Kansas City game in the baseball.

Which, alternatively, is better than the sex dolls in Korea and the Hitler in Australia.

I’ve been watching “some” and keeping up somewhat via boxscores/twitter during this truncated end to the season......the early afternoon games are way cool, even though my Rockets lost earlier today.

Portland (two straight 50+ point games for Dame) and Phoenix have been playing some great ball, but Memphis, who has loss 6 of 7 in this reboot of a playoff stretch, might hold on to the eighth spot?

I would love for the Rockets to play the Lakers or the Clippers, worried about Portland, Dallas and the mile high altitude of Denver.

So Golden Child, who do you like?

I really hope that they didn't know the character because that'd make it even more hilarious.

OMG DAME IS INSANE!!!......61 points = Portland wins!

What Are The Odds?


Damian Lillard's 61
9 of 17 from 3-Point range
3 of 7 from midrange
5 of 8 from close range
18 of 18 from the line






Players with three 60-point games in an NBA season:

Wilt Chamberlain
Damian Lillard

Heck yeah, of course I like the Blazers but I haven't been able to catch much of them playing. I have just been seeing what is on during the day and watching whatever I can. I like the Pelicans for political reasons. I don't like Lebron James but I should watch more. I enjoyed watching the Miami Heat and the Utah Jazz this week.

The Suns were good

I try to keep on track, but we only get to see one game every other day. And of course if there's a football match or any other sports there will be no NBA match shown. But on the plus side, the games are at a watchable time, start time at 8PM or 10PM in my timezone instead of in the middle of the night.

Can't say I have a favorite team right now, I used to like the Clippers with Chris Paul and Blake Griffin, then Golden State Warriors but they've been nowhere this season. Now I don't know. I do like that the Clippers are finally competing, but to be frank I don't really know who plays for them

I hope I'll be able to see a lot from the playoffs, fingers crossed. Perhaps I need to change my TV subscription, for the extra sports package instead of the extra movie/hbo package that I hardly use.... I do have to admit though, whenever I do watch the live game. I get so bored from the advertorial interruptions that I stop watching the live game, but instead record it and watch it at a later time so that I can fast forward through the interruptions.

I hear of more and more people doing this.

The Rockets shot themselves in the foot losing to Indiana Wednesday. They can still hold on to the 4th spot but it’s going to require them to beat Philadelphia Friday......the playoffs start Saturday!

DAME FROM THE LOGO!!!......42 points = Portland wins!


Most points in a player's final 3 games in NBA history

2019-20 Damian Lillard 154
2005-06 Kobe Bryant 128
1986-87 Michael Jordan 128
1985-86 Dominique Wilkins 128
2014-15 Russell Westbrook 127
1977-78 David Thompson 127

Portland will now play Memphis in a “play-in” game with the winner playing the LA Lakers in the first round. I don’t believe the Lakers have a chance against Portland!!!

[_tunic_]

Looking forward to those playin games! I will be able to watch it, live. On Saturday evening 8:30pm in my timezone

Phoenix must be gutted, missing the playoffs even though they had a 8-0 winning streak in their last matches.

Too many GOLS

GOLS meaning is defined below:
God Our Lord and Savior

I'm lost

yea. GOLS, like BASKOTS!!

Too many, dilutes the best part of the game.

ufff. When there's a basket (lol) every two seconds it dilutes the feeling of scoring and you end up thinking 'they've scored, so what, there'll be another score in a second anyway'.

American sports, lol

Phoenix has the longest winning streak to finish a season by any team that missed the playoffs in NBA history.

Very cool you get to watch the play-ins

Portland/Memphis tips tomorrow at 1:30 pm
Portland is favored -5.5

[Bytor Peltor]

Halftime
Memphis 52
Portland 58

Jusuf Nurkic has been tremendous in the first half and the games leading scorer with 15 points......and with his 17th rebound of the half, Nurkic sets the new team record for rebounds in a half, a record previously held by Bill Walton.

Traditionally this season, Portland has experienced major collapses during the 3rd quarter. Dame can’t score 50 every game?? Should be a good 2nd half!

Anyone else watching?

One Crazy Play

[golden child]

Fuck Lebron James and his Space Jam 2 BULLSHIT
