It just occurred to me totally randomly that Baron Davis hasn't been in the league in 3 years. You blink and you miss these things

Dwayne Casey, Toronto's head coach, could get the ax if/when the Raptors are eliminated.
Tough gig -- you turn the franchise around, get them to the top of the East, win the most games in franchise history, and still get fired. It's not like he has great players on his team.
But I understand -- they've faltered in the playoffs far too often. But what head coach are they going to bring in who can do better than what Casey's done?

I agree, it's tough.
However, how pathetic were the Raptors in that series? To not even win one game is not a good look. Don't get me wrong, the players are to blame more so than the coach because I've never seen such a psychological hold on another team like Lebron has on the Raptors. You gotta at least win 1 game though with your team fully healthy and being a [HASH]1 seed. Even the Pacers took them to 7 so the Cavs are not invincible.

Marc Stein is reporting that Paul George is potentially returning to OKC, and they're working on the contract.

You don't usually see this. The Bulls/Hawks game last night went to quadruple OT with the Bulls winning 168-161. LaVine, for example played 56 minutes. Both teams play tomorrow. However.....lucky for them....they play each other, so neither team is at a horrid disadvantage. I wonder what the score of that one with be. I'd think 88-85.

LeBron managed to get a turn over by throwing the ball off his own backboard during the inbounds. He's such a quitter.

Do you ever wonder if Larry Bird would have tattoos if he played in this league? I don't think he would.

Watching TNT and Ernie says "Let's go to reporter Jake Greenberg" and Barlkey says "Half man. Half make up"
Barkley was right

I’m surprised that teams aren’t in tank mode this year. The usual teams, the Cavs, Knicks, Pistons, etc are making moves this offseason, as if they’re trying to win. But this draft is so far looking pretty good. If anything, this would be the year to tank.

I wonder if Pacers fans are upset with their GM for not meeting Danny’s demand in a trade for Hayward?
Do they wish he did?

The Thunder just had the most active off-season in NBA history, even though it was the shortest off-season ever. fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-thunder-have-been-busier-this-offseason-than-any-team-in-nba-history/Presti has always intrigued me from a distance. Plucking Durant, Westbrook and Harden in consecutive drafts is not too shabby. It'll be interesting to watch what he does with all the picks and trade exceptions he's stockpiled, not to mention cap space he might create if he can get rid of Horford's contract.

Bol Bol is the first player in the history of the league with the same first and last name. He is also a better ball handler than I thought

What an embarrassing game by Giannis. Wondering if MIL will ever be champs with him as the centerpiece and Middleton as their 2nd best player.
They needed this game tonight.

Yup that was def a disappointing showing.
And on the other side, my goodness is Kevin Durant something else. He's gonna be pretty high on the all-time list once it is all said and done.
