Loving this season, Many teams are surprising and looking formidable right now. Magic and OKC are looking scary as well.

Do we really need those weird colour floors? And is thete a reason to care about this tournament? I was ready to answer the first question until I read the second. I take that as a no.

Just notice Inside NBA talking about this "In-Season Tournament". Have no idea what this is. It's the reason for the weird floors Tuesdays and Fridays. Lakers are moving on to the knockout round of 8 (6 winners + 2 wild cards). Each team has 4 games count towards the tournament. Ends with a Final Four in Vegas, winners get $500k each. I've been watching the Knicks games without knowing there is a tournament going on. This may add a bit of excitement to the mostly meaningless first half of the season, much like the Summer league.

Until this tourney is beyond a paycheck for winning players, I probably won't care. I thought I would this summer, I don't, & not just because Toronto isn't competing well for it.
Something more substantial like an automatic extra home playoff game banked would be fascinating - to cash in during whichever round they want... risking saving it for a later round.

Just read into a bit about the in-season tournament here: www.nba.com/news/in-season-tournament-101The games counts towards the regular season. I don't see any advantage of winning the tournament towards the NBA playoff.

I don't see any advantage of winning the tournament towards the NBA playoff. There isn't, other than the wins. They're playing for the $500,000 each for the winning team, $250K for the runner up guys, the Final 4 Vegas games, and to get that trophy. And it's obvious the games are more intense.

Raptors out of the (checks notes) tournament. I know I'm devastated.

Why does Barkley hate the Warriors? SFGATE asked his βInside the NBAβ colleague Shaquille OβNeal at a charity function last week.
βThereβs no hate. Chuck knows exactly what heβs doing. Itβs all marketing.β

Mark Cuban is selling a majority of the Mavs to the Adelson family (ugh) in a deal that values the team at $3.5 billion.

Warriors are killing me. Another big lead blown, 22 points this time. Clippers took their only lead with 9 seconds left.

Mavs go on a 30-0 run to go up 6, still lose by 6 to OKC 30-0?? What's the longest run like that in NBA history? That seems like the kind of thing that only happens when Duke plays against C.W. Post.

I don't think I've ever even gone on a 30-0 run in a video game.

Luka with a first-ever 25+ point first-half triple-double in a 50 point blowout of Utah.
Warriors need Kuminga to finally get past Portland in the final 2 minutes - Curry the only Warrior with more than 13. Klay was awful, but his FTs iced it.
Clips look good beating Denver. Harden starting to mesh with PG. Jokic with a bad triple double, 9-32 shooting.
Spurs fall to 3-17. Wemby another 4-13 night with 1 block. Averaging a soft 19.3 on 43.7% shooting, 27% from 3, 3.5 TO.
Embiid 50/13/7 vs Wiz.
