After Lakers got rid of Westbrook they predictably got better. The Kyrie Irving experiment in Dallas is a complete dumpster fire (also predictable) and Mavericks could even miss the play-in :coffee: Three games to go and they can only finish 40-42 IF they win all three...

 

Sacramento Kings made the playoffs to snap the longest post-season drought in all US major pro leagues (since 2006). The new masters of futility are NY Jets of NFL (last playoffs in 2010).

Mavericks will miss the playoffs. They didn't even want to compete for the play-in as Doncic played 13 mins in a must-win game vs Bulls :p They still needed to win their last game and count for Oklahoma loss but why bother? Kyrie Irving can and probably will leave after the season so this mini-experiment turned out to be a complete failure. Zero defense still means minimal chances for success in modern NBA, just ask the Rockets...

Chinese media reported that China is making effort to neutralize Kyle Anderson and he is also willing to accept the offer. Kyle Anderson has 1/8 Chinese blood heritage and that’s the reason why he’s selected by Chinese association. If everything progresses smoothly, he will play World Cup for China and the ultimate purpose is earning Olympic berth on World Cup with his participation.

NBA Play-In Tournament began last night with Atlanta beating Miami and the Lakers toppling the Timberwolves to clinch the 7 seed in their respective conferences.

 

Despite the losses, the season is not done for the Heat and Wolves. They will get one more chance to advance on Friday against the winners of today's games.

#8 seed Miami Heat take out #1 Milwaukee Bucks 4-1 in East Round 1 :coffee: It feels like Giannis needs a new team around him and maybe a new coach...

He always said he will stay at Milwaukee for his entire career, so we will see. He does not have the arrogance of Lebron James to "take his talents to South Beach" for example and create a super team in a "nicer" city like Los Angeles.

 

I mean they had a bad series against the Heat now, but they still finished the regular season as #1 in the East, it's not like they were horrible all year long or something (like the Dallas Mavericks were).

I didn't want to imply Giannis needs to move into another team, just bring in new guys to Milwaukee. East is still relative easier than West IMO even though Heat or Celtics look legit overall. Sixers are a coin toss again. Nets have blown it up and nobody should take Knicks seriously.

 

Obviously LeBron was frustrated during the first time with Cavs. It was just him and a bunch of goons. Even worse than some of the Allen Iverson Sixers teams.

Okay but Iverson got to play for one season with the GOAT Efthimios Rentzias, who averaged a whole 1.5 ppg during his one season with the 76ers :d

Whoa! That's one name I haven't heard in years. Probably one of the few Europeans big who were actually worse than the legend of Zan Tabak :lol: This being said Cezary Trybański aka the first Pole in NBA was even worse :coffee:

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
    • Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.
    • Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig            
    • Skeleton Tour moves on to Yanqing  this weekend.  Asian Cup races tomorrow, then the World Cup on Saturday, and then possibly more Asian Cup next weekend before everyone moves over to Altenberg for the start of the full Skeleton / Bobsleigh tour again. 
    • 2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.
    • But he beat Mouat, who seems to be almost unbeatable 
    • Argentina has a really solid lineup, especially if they have prepared seriously for this event. Of course they don't have a champion like we do, but in this format it is enough to win 1 match to play the decisive doubles.
    • Today we must to beat Argentina. It looks like Sinner will have to win all the singles and doubles for us to defend the title. So far, the 2nd and 3rd favorites before the tournament have already been eliminated: Esp and USA.
