Calling KD the most prolific scorer in the game EVER... wow. I really know nothing about basketball.

Can we agree that Clippers are no longer title favorites? They have a serious difficulty dealing with Doncic and his supporting cast.

As I said in the 2021 topic: The Clippers are NEVER a title favorite.
And Luka can be and has been a jerk in several occasions, but if they give me Luka to take the final shot with 1 second left for the win, sure. There are way worse players to pull that one out. The guy likes those situations.

Danny Ainge is stepping down and Brad Stevens is taking over as head of Basketball Operations and he'll lead the search for a new head coach.

For Ainge, I guess bragging about your picks haul and doing barely anything with them or your assets was wearing thin. And I doubt him showing his ass this past week and just how out of touch he was with his players didn't help matters.

For Brad, he's failing up. Apparently he's worn down from coaching by the Bubble and welcomed the transition. Man isn't even 50 and talking about worn down? Uh, okay, though my first inclination is FOH.

Preemptive appeasement with Lillard?
I liked Stotts, but yes, he was not delivering. He will find work soon.

James Harden goes from scoring champion to league leader in fouling out, in one season?

They finally started calling him on the sneaky little fouls he commits to get others to react. About time.

Stan Van Gundy out in New Orleans. And Scott Brooks is out in Washington after they couldn't reach an agreement.

SVG isn't shocking, they're looking for ways to explain why Zion isn't taking the league by storm the way they touted. We may very well be on our way to 4 coaches for Zion in 4 years at this rate. They truly need to pick someone and commit for at least 2 years.

Scott Brooks on the other hand. I have no idea where this other offer he seems to think is forthcoming will be coming from, but okay. Wizards fans will be thrilled.

Wonder what Westbrook is thinking after Brooks been let go. Westbrook has had his best numbers under Brooks.
