    @ACT-Crusader each to their own. Athleticism, killer instinct to go at anyone and the ability to elevate the players around him is a good start.

    He was, but then the Suns held him to 16 in his grudge match. Looks like 'cash considerations' won that battle.

    @Magpie_in_aus Ja Morant is an amazing player. I think potentially he could be Jordanesque but that supporting cast...

    It’s all set up for the Pelicans and Zion now.

    Wouldn't be the NBA thread without your hot takes.👍

    Here's a similar one from a few years ago.

    Donovan Mitchell, in my opinion is the closest thing I have see to MJ in a long time. He is a amazing.

    Which is everything Stevie Franchise had as a rookie and early career NBA player.

    I love watching Ja play and also Dillon Brooks.

    I love Ja also. I'd liken his play to Derrick Rose pre-injury. Hopefully he maintains a better attitude although

    Meanwhile, does anyone else think the bubble is doing less than fuck all for Rachel Nichols? I think the natural lighting ain't flattering, and she looks like she has grown a thin moustache.

    Phoenix win again. Now 5-0 in the bubble. Helpfully, Portland go down to LAC and are only. 5 of a game ahead of the Suns in 9th. We're two games behind Memphis who simply just need to continue losing.

    Fun game between Nuggets and Jazz. Two fairly even matched teams. I don’t usually mind the Jazz, but was very glad they lost this one with the way Mitchell was flopping everywhere.

    I care not. I just liked that the Suns made him look like a chump after all his trash talking.

    @Dice lol I love that! I couldn't stop making hot takes if I tried.

    You know what it is though, me wanting them to be the next Jordan.

    Edit: I do post under the influence a fair bit.... I'm also meaning when Jordan came to the league. Not the 6 rings ultimate end boss, beat him and you've clocked the game version.

    games are starting to get weird. Players are getting rested all over the shop. Spurs hammered the Rockets this morning, both teams resting players, but Houston resting Harden was the main difference.

    The Suns, Spurs and Blazers all gunning for the 8-seed, while the Grizzlies hold on for dear life. The 8/9 play-in game has been a great idea and is giving the bubble a bit of life. Can't believe Phoenix, you have to wonder if they had started a little better (and Ayton didn't test positive) they might be up in the 4/5 seed spot.

    @barbarian suns have been incredibly lucky in the bubble though, they've played so many depleted teams. Look at Philly today, they were without Simmons (season), Embiid, Horford and Harris.!!!

    Hard not to think the safe teams arent just jostling for opponents

    The commentators made that point last week when the Lakers and Clippers played. Provided the Clips get past their first round opponent finishing 2nd or 3rd makes no difference with no home court advantage, and both avoid the Lakers.
