Without Steph Curry, the Warriors are getting embarrassed on National TV. If only they had someone to step up when 30 was out. Thank Joe Lacob and Mike Dunleavy
Defensive guru Jamahl Mosley has the Pelicans ranked 26th in DRTG through 12 games. They’ve conceded a historically bad 140 PPG to opponents per last 3. The Nets are 24th in ORTG and LAC is 21st. Mosley has bottom 20 offenses looking like the 2016 warriors

Nick Nurse and the Philadelphia 76ers poorly orchestrated offense and waning defense was on full display yesterday. Lots of ppl talking about it after the Celtics blew them out. I was early

Jaylen “check the ball up” Brown tn:
Dribbled off his leg 3x ✅
4 turnovers ✅
Benched the whole 3Q ✅
Make-a-wish dunk in the 4Q 🔥
Released a story on Tatum pregame ✅
This’s what happens when you’re focused on social media instead of basketball. Said the lights were too bright for him and cashed on it. Faded him in game 7 vs. the 6ers too 🥱
Main play was BOS -1.5
Also cashed BOS -8.5 alt spread

Extended Jordan Poole quotes from the visitor's locker room tonight.
More to come @sfstandard tomorrow.
Seriously what happened to LeBron James in the 2018 NBA finals? He was a -60 across 4 games - the worst among all Cleveland Cavaliers including Larry Nantz Jr. and Cedi Osman
Seriously what the hell happened to Jordan Poole? He's out here with the bench warmers in a game where the Pelicans are down 50 and has 7 points on 1-5 shooting and is a -47. This fall off is like some shit you see on an episode of Unsung. He helped Steph win a championship 4 years ago.

What happens when Luka Doncic has a bad game?
Mike D’Antoni says James Harden’s scoring in his prime was so extraordinary that even while the Rockets were winning, he worried about how they’d win when Harden returned to normal
“He had a period where he went through about 20 games that literally, I’m thinking this guy’s mastered the game. He can score and set up somebody whenever he wants.”
“He probably gets 55, 54, 60 one time. And he had a stretch of 40s and 50 games that went on forever.”
“I’d go home worried as hell because I’m thinking, ‘How we going to win?’ Because that’s not normal what he’s doing. And we’re winning, but that’s not normal. When he goes back to normal, how we going to win? But he stayed with that.”

It makes no sense to employ Ausar Thompson if you’re not gna have him guard the other team’s best player. The lakers had 1 guy that could beat the Pistons last night. JB Bickerstaff did the usual switch everything defense and got 40 dropped on his head top

The New Orleans Pelicans have Dejounte Murray, Jeremiah Fears, and Jordan Poole on their team. They played a lineup of Derik Queen, Trey Murphy, Herb Jones, Saddiq Bey, & Trendon Watford. Then Benedict Mathurin subbed in the 4Q after sitting the whole game. I thought James Borrego was bad, but Jamahl Mosley doesn’t seem a lot better

Zion Williamson had Kris Dunn on him and was asking for the ball. Jeremiah Fears refused, then turned it over. The Pelicans were a joke last year, got a new coach, and are still a joke. Zion is a great scorer and I hope he leaves this poverty franchise soon. A contender could rly use him

The “2 for 1” leads to some of the worst shots in basketball and a lot of shot turnovers. It is often an excuse for a player to chuck a low quality shot if they feel like it. Marcus Smart’s 3pt attempt against the Suns just now is a prime example. Even worse, the Rockets were down 10

A Joel Embiid 3 is a shot turnover. It was like this when he came back from injury last season too. The Cavs have Thomas Bryant out there and the 76ers are chucking 3s

9 games into the NBA szn, everyone is dunking on Jeff Peterson for the LaMelo Ball trade. The lack of uproar at the time of the trade was pretty surprising, but ppl are catching up now. Charlotte Hornets fans went from witnessing history, to the worst offense itl. Yes Colby White & Kon Knueppel have been hurt, but this team is worlds apart from what it was in June
This’s easily one of the worst trades in NBA history. The Charlotte Hornets had a historically good offense this year and had the BEST net rating in the league since 1/1/2026 (10.5). They beat the Knicks, Spurs, and Thunder in this stretch. This was largely due to LaMelo Ball being the offensive engine
You had a great young core in LaMelo Ball, Kon Knueppel, and Brandon Miller. I just don’t understand why you’d blow that up… and for Naz Reid? This may age as poorly as the Paul George trade
