Then Randle gives him the ball and he fumbles it.

The game was over with Toronto being up by 5 with seconds to go.

Although, naturally we see Julius Randle with a rocketed low feed to Rudy Gobert that he fumbles to turn it over to end the game. Whew. pic.twitter.com/We6Ip0TTcM

Dort flops, throws his leg under Ingram and injures Ingram.

He's injured multiple players doing stuff like this now.

NBA response despite flopping being illegal:

Did he get called for a flagrant on this?

Nope

Regarding NBA Expansion in Vegas:

The Clark County (Nev.) Zoning Commission unanimously approved several key components for a project known as LVXP. The project would include an 18,000-seat, NBA-ready arena, a casino, and a high-rise development with more than 2,300 hotel rooms and about 260 condominiums.


The Emirates Cup is played at T-Mobile arena, home of hockey LV Golden Knights.


A's ballpark will be closer to $1.75 Billion.

Here are some rendering screen grabs of the planned LVXP NBA-ready arena, resort project, from a video Steelman Partners posted to YouTube.

I question if Vegas can support a NFL, MLB, NHL, and NBA team. I think eventually at least one of them will find greener pastures elsewhere. I don't think there are enough local fans for all those teams.

I don't understand why Kerr is arguing here? Draymond does not get called for anything here as he is allowed to move on screens. The call was a Malik Monk foul on Curry and then a Technical for Kerr arguing for no reason.

Wemby payback is in the sequence of his 8 blocks, but his play at the very end of the first quarter was outstanding. It's like he had 3 blocks all over the place in like 4 seconds

When this play happened, I thought it was a really weird sequence, but Wob's tweet explains CP3's intelligence in the moment.

I was fortunate enough to have seats almost directly behind/under the basket where Ja tried to crucify Wemby last night. When I saw him turn the corner I said "OH ****" really loud. My poor wife had no idea it was coming but she got to witness the reaction after one of his dunks.

The reactions are about the same as when I bring home of few extra pieces of chicken, and everybody is super excited, but I actually had messed up the order on an app and had purchased too much.

NBA: Hey you know the next face of the NBA? The 8 foot french guy?

Me: ya lol

NBA: Well he’s actually playing a standalone game right now IN FRANCE. It’s against last years ECF runner up. Gonna be awesome

Me: Oh hell yeah, where can I watch it?
