Denver Nuggets have lost 5 straight to Minnesota Timberwolves, but have beaten the Warriors in 9 straight games. The West playoffs are all about matchups.

Max Christie on the "Fire Nico" chants: "Definitely not pleasant to hear, but I don't really want to comment on that".

A historic 20 players combined are listed OUT between the Mavs vs 76ers today. A camera pans around, but only 6 and 7 players from each team are seen warming up.

The Denver Nuggets are a 1st round exit waiting to implode.

Explicit "F**K Nico" chants are now even breaking out at a St. Patrick’s Day Parade in Dallas.

The Dallas Mavericks are at risk of forfeiting games due to injuries and NBA salary cap rules, per Bobby Marks of ESPN.

Nuggets are ranked 22nd in DRTG on the season and 25th in the last 15..

Why are people shocked that Jokic took 17 Free-Throws if JJ Redick's entire game plan is to front him with multiple smaller players and get "physical"?

Teams who are very blatantly and intentionally tanking should get auto-prohibited from getting the 1st pick.

Dallas Mavericks' Two Way players Kessler Edwards and Brandon Williams have 3 and 6 games remaining on their contract. Eventually if no one return's from injury the Mavericks will be down to only 6 healthy players.

[McMenamin] JJ Redick says he will play every Laker in uniform tonight. Bronny James is back with the team after a G League stint and that also means Cam Reddish will be in line for minutes for the first time since late January.

Are the Lakers sandbagging?

Sixers have 96 percent of their payroll sidelined right now.

The Dubs are back - and scary

Are we sure teams will actually be willing to give up significant assets to acquire a 2 year rental on a 37 year old KD this summer?

Mavericks owner says “The objective was, how do we create a roster for the future". This makes zero sense considering they traded away a 25 year old superstar for a 32 year old. Yikes.

Four teams are top 10 in all three of OFFRTG, DEFRTG, and NETRTG this season

The Denver Nuggets have now lost 5 straight against Minnesota going back to the playoffs. Has Minnesota solved this matchup?

Don't look now but the Minnesota Timberwolves are looking healthy...and very good.

Jamal Murray struggles against Minnesota continue from last year: 1 points on 0/7 FG at the half.

[Highlight] Jaylen Brown with the "hard" shove on SGA knocking him down.

At the end of the 1st quarter, the Celtics have shot 24 FGA. 22 of those were 3 pointers

[Highlight] 38 year old Al Horford somehow locks up SGA and forces the steal.

[RunItBack] "No more superteams for KD... go somewhere where they're up and coming, you got some young stars that can do their thing, and you can add to that... With the Lakers, with the Mavs it's going to be the same old narratives." — Lou Williams

If they won the title, the Thunder would have the worst FT differential of a championship team since at least 2004
