Karl-Anthony Towns' 27 pts-17 rebounds-6 blocks performance last night against the Mavs:

A little surprising

Kobe really hates passing

Curry with 25 in the first. Wilt better watch out.

1st half numbers for Curry: 36 points. 12-13 FGs. 8-9 3pt.

Apparently the record for threes in a game is 12, held by (you guessed it) Donyell Marshall and Kobe Bryant.

Kobe shot 32 threes to get that record, though.

Donyell doesn't look particularly healthy these days

He's got 4 minutes to break the record. I think he definitely ties it and possibly breaks it

I jinxed him. Didn't tie it or break it

Derek Fisher out in New York.

Lol

Westbrook just landed on Curry's foot + ankle. Looked ugly, though Curry walked to the locker room on it.

Curry is somehow back and still hitting shots. Westbrook smashed his ankle and foot pretty good so I'm not sure how Curry avoided a serious injury.

Pelicans shutting down Anthony Davis for the year.


Probably will not be playing on Olympic team

Anybody read about the Young-Russell situation in LA? Apparently Russell had a conversation with Young in which he asked him about hook ups with chicks before his fianc, any infidelities, and all sorts of other personal ****. Okay no issue, friends talk about that sort of thing. But Russell was secretly recording the whole thing and then leaked it publicly. Pretty F'd up thing to do to a teammate.

Good luck attracting FAs with Russell as the cornerstone

Iggy is his fianc

If the Cavs want to win and keep LeBron happy they need to somehow trade Kyrie for John Wall.

Put the best pure PG in the league with Lebron... Dangerous.

Warriors down 10 in the 4th at home to the Celtics.

Celtics held on...no perfect home record for GS. Boston was on the back end of a B2B, too.

Boston went 40-1 at home during their '85-'86 title year, so it's a bit fitting that they're the team to keep the Warriors from going unbeaten at home.

Now SA has a chance to make that history all alone.

The Cavs have done everything that LeBron and his agency have wanted in regards to wanting to win and trying to keep LeBron happy, just like before.

He is already playing with one of the top PGs in the league, and a PF who at one time was considered by some on this board and in the media to be a top PF. He also gets to play in the conference that has few top players in the league and gets to moonwalk into the championship game every year.

Honestly, a PG with less of an ego, like Parker or Conley, may be even better to team with LeBron & Love than Wall or Kyrie

I don't even think LeBron needs a top PG. He needs a SG that is decent at handling/distributing and a good big man, plus a solid bench.

GS is trying to lose at home again. Coughed up a 16 point lead and now they're trailing in OT. They can probably kiss that record goodbye if they lose tonight

...and lose they did. I don't see them winning their last 4 to break the record.

Didn't the Bulls do the same thing 20 years ago in faltering down the stretch? It's got to take its toll on the team to constantly hear about the record every hour of every day.

96 Bulls lost two games in April and two games in March. Not really faltering down the stretch.

That loss could be huge for GS' aspirations.

True, I just looked it up. For some reason I thought they lost a few of their last 5-6 games.

LeBron became the first player in NBA history to average 25ppg for 12 straight seasons. Other than LeBron, only Jordan has had over 9 with 11.
