Kennyc1234 | Wizards

124 | 5 hours ago

Sometimes I wonder if Nick Nurse was put onto this Earth to test the limits of Tyrese Maxey’s inhuman stamina. The limit was today, for the first time in forever Maxey looked visibly tired for the entire game, and Nick Nurse didnt give a fuck and made him play 42 minutes anyway. Nick Nurse is actively killing Maxey, free my man Maxey from this bum ass coach please 🙏

ButlerFromDowntown | Bulls

48 | 5 hours ago

It’s not like the Sixers don’t have guard depth either. If anything, they have a bit of a logjam. Will playing 4 minutes of Grimes instead of Maxey really kill the team?

Kennyc1234 | Wizards

28 | 5 hours ago

Or even just give McCain more minutes to get him in rhythm. He’s been slow coming back from injury and they even assigned him to the G League. But like this would have been the perfect game to sit Maxey and VJ and hand the keys to McCain just to see what he has. But instead Nick Nurse decided to just keep running Maxey into the ground.

Irony is suns front office is big on nepotism and that seems to be working so far

KL2ConspireLLC | San Diego Clippers

10 | 5 hours ago

It’s working for the Suns because the people they hired might have college connections to the owner but they’re also qualified for their jobs. Jordan Ott had eight years as an NBA assistant when he was hired. He would’ve got a head coaching job eventually. Brian Gregory might not have front office experience but at least he was a college coach for a long time. And their assistant GM Oronde Taliaferro who is probably responsible for talent evaluation anyway has been a scout in the NBA for a long time.

Meanwhile, Bronny wouldn’t be in the NBA if he wasn’t Lebron’s son.

Nepotism and networking are two very different things. And hiring in your network often works.

disillusioned | Suns

2 | an hour ago

Yeah, I was going to say, “having gone to the same school as someone else and deciding you like their pedigree as a result” is not the same thing as “force-feeding your son/brother a contract they objectively do not deserve as a threat to the FO if they want to keep you,” which is the purest, most literal form of nepotism.

Nurse plays Tyrese 42 minutes the day after he played 40 minutes. Era of tactical rest, against a non-conference opponent, other two stars out, but no. Nurse has no idea how to win a game without running his stars into the ground. It doesn’t really matter what Philly’s depth is because he doesn’t see it. Got a player in McCain that’s struggling to find rhythm, so you call him up from the G-league to sit him on the bench. Why? Why are you obsessed with this 3 big lineup when all the bigs are not a threat from distance? They’re just going to clog the paint. Why not play a small ball lineup, play fast, and look to win the game with variance?

Doc Rivers easily wins this game as a coach. Absolutely pathetic.

Phoenix have a great bench, really like Oso.

I said he needs to shake off the rust? He played well for someone who hasn’t hooped since November and I liked what I saw. That said he blew multiple bunnies and turned it over numerous times during the clusterfuck at the end of the game.

Both things can be true.

Pleasant surprise to have a season that is genuinely fun to watch again regardless of the final score. Energy and vibes on this team are peak.

What a crazy turnaround with a new coach and what many expected would be a mediocre rebuild year at best after the Bud/KD/Beal implosion.

They are a legit good team with a productive bench and seem like they keep getting better as the season goes on. I don’t know where the ceiling is this year, but it doesn’t matter because I’m already beyond happy with the play so far.
