White is shooting the ball so much better in the G-Leauge, his release looks so much quicker. He hit one in junk time last week and the release and mechanics look so much better. He's getting better and better. Shotting % in the G League 54% from 2, 38% from 3 and 90% FT. Along with 18PTS and 7 REB. If he was to come back to the NBL I'd be curious to see what he puts up.

We still need more shooters in the back court.
Great work Scoop. With those sorts of numbers I’m now a White fanboi.
 
Disgraceful no call. Lebron is on another level right now. We are watching a goat. LBJ, MJ and Kareem.

Yeh it was a monster game by Embid in all sense of the word. I guess he felt aggrieved at my post. Didn’t realise he was a tiger & PRE fan!
I was thinking he might have been a little inspired by missing out as an All-Star starter despite being the NBAs leading scorer (going for 3 straight), one of the league's premier defenders and 2nd fav for the MVP. But no, you are probably right, it was most likely your post!

I'm a Philly fan since the days of the Dr, Maurice, Bobby, Tony and Malone. Don't know why they didn't win more titles. I like the way this bunch is shaping up this year - think they've put some great pieces together. I have a sneaky that they'll come out of the East as champs. Embid's latest performance was other-worldly. The best all round and most influential performance of the season to date. If he can bring that to the finals, then Philly are a moral to get another banner.

Having said that I have soft spots for Denver and any team with an Aussie. It's quite difficult being a one team die-hard these days. Long may it continue.

Celtics up 41 to 11 on the Nuts with 3 mins still left in the 1st qtr. Wow.

Bet they give a heap back though…
 
Jay Williams and Stephen A Smith got pretty heated with one another overnight on First Take re Cryrie Irving.
