Doc's going to get an ulcer if he stays here - 2nd year in a row he's cracking - I'm worried about his health
I'm expecting him to go full Ryan Leaf before the season is over

Warriors survive 94-92 after the Jazz miss a game winning 3 and the follow up tip in that would’ve tied it.

Raptors went down by 34 tonight to the broken Blazers. Their bench needs a lot of fixing - to sustain leads & kill opponent runs alike.

Sixers blow 68-44 lead, lose to Clippers. Curry first official buzzer-beater game-winner to barely beat the Rockets. He had several where the other team had significantly less than a second left, or they had to go the length of court with zero chance. He has eight game winners (this was the first legit buzzer beater). Only one was attempted when the score wasn't tied. For comparison, Jordan has nine buzzer beaters and 25 game winning shots. To be honest I don't know how many were tied as compared to being down one, but I know it's a hell of a lot more than one. Playoff games, too (Game 5 {elimination game in those days} against the Cavs comes to mind). Paul Pierce has 7 career buzzer beaters (no idea how many game winners he's hit that weren't technically buzzer beaters), and he'd been in the league ten years before he got the kind of help Curry has. Hell, Pierce hit buzzer beaters in the playoffs for multiple franchises. And those guys actually did other things for their team, and played in a league that allowed defense. Beating the 14-33 Rockets at home is quite the feat, though. Especially if the worst that can happen is the game goes to OT. The bar for 'all time great' just isn't what it used to be.

Cavs keep rollin'
Kevin Love is still contributing
Double Double - puts up 20 and 11
Bulls squeak by the Thunder (Bulls outscored by 13 in the 4th - win by 1) - Chicago 3-7 in their last 10
Pels beat the Pacers. Pacers stated everybody in on the trade block - I want LeVert
Suns beat the Jazz - CP3 and Book with big games

Per Jake Fischer -
'James Harden has not enjoyed living in Brooklyn and has voiced his frustrations regarding Kyrie Irving's part-time playing status, per B/R's @jakelfischer
Harden has made it clear he intends to test out free agency'

Celtics throttle the Kings 128-75. Largest home win in franchise history. Warriors up 95-76 on Dallas late in the 3rd. I'm intrigued on what the Kings do at the trade deadline.
There's rumors all over the place pretty much everybody is available (just like the Pacers are listening to offers for everybody).
Trade deadline is the 10th I think (may be off on that)
Then there's rumors that Fox and Haliburton have been told they're staying and the plan is to build around them.
They've been stuck in the mud for years and years and years.
Haliburton is a really nice young player and depending on who you listen to/read - he's available
There's some big names that could be swapped - everybody on the Kings, Pacers, Hawks are in the news (Collins and he just signed that huge contract)....

The East is so tight right now The Hawks are in 12th place and only 8.5 out of 1st (it's still incredibly early - and we're not even at the trade deadline) We're two out Jo-Jo with 42 and 14

Nets lose for the 3rd straight game.
This was my fear as the season went on.
KD out.
Harden out last night
Kyrie unreliable
Will it ever all come together for the playoffs or is it just a pipe dream at this point?

Your biggest fear should be losing to inferior opponents in the second round, it's what the Sixers always do.

Saturday 9pm, Kyrie's road warriors @ Warriors Nether team would beat the Suns. Thing with big-3 teams is it's rare that 1 or 2 aren't hurt. And Kyrie hurts the team in half their games. Don't count on him changing in the playoffs.

Don't count on him changing in the playoffs. Haven't the Dubs gone on their mini-tailspin as soon as Klay came back and Draymond went out?
Maybe screwed up the chemistry temporarily for a shot period of time?
Goes to show how valuable Draymond is to that team even though he only averages like 9 ppg or so (may be off on that)
I wouldn't want to play them come playoff time if you give Klay, Draymond, Steph time to gel again to go along with Wiggins who's having a nice season and all their young players. I think Warriors - Suns would be pretty exciting.
