Personally if you are successful on your challenges, you get to keep them. And to lose a timeout even on a successful challenge is a joke.

Of the 4 major sports, do benchwarmers have it made in the NBA?!?!?!

NHL: Everyone sees ice time besides the backup goalie. 

NFL: Almost everyone sees a handful of reps, besides the 2nd and 3rd string QBs.

MLB: Since they play 5 to 7 games a week, everyone plays depending on position. 

NBA: Some of the benchwarmers, a good 3-4 see no playing time at all, unless it’s a 30 point blowout.

Just glad to see it’s not 3-0 knicks. Good bounce back game to keep it a series.

Wemby gets by with murder half the time with his elbows, high screens and aggressiveness. Though when the favor is reversed he is a dancing ballerina and falls easier than Robbie Earl.

It’s early, but the Lynx absolutely got the best player in the draft at the 2 pick with Olivia Miles. She has been tremendous so far. Another dominant win tonight over Dallas, who had the 1st pick and Paige.

And the Lynx are still w/o Napheesa.

The Knicks channeling their inner Lee Corso say "Not so fast my friend".

They just took a one point lead with a 1:20 left.

The Spurs led by 29 points early in the 3rd quarter and by 20 points early in the 4th quarter.

First half Spurs 76-49

Second half Knicks 58-30

Knicks win to go up 3 games to 1. KAT is one win away from winning the NBA title.

Im in DC in a hotel and let my son have the tv mid 3rd quarter. Checked my phone this morning to see how bad the blowout was and saw what I missed. Watching ESPN now… WOW!!!

NY Knicks: either win by fitty-'leven (c) Yin Yang Twins, or trail for most of the game only to close in late, and get the nail-biter win.

So the 'wolves are make a LOT of moves this offseason, Randle & Naz have been traded.  Do these moves make sense?  Plus, there may be some dissatisfaction from ANT and his people about the 'wolves direction; though those could just be typical twitter hooha.

Can a better basketball mind than me (which is everyone) shed some light?

Randle had to go. You found your absolute ceiling with him in Minnesota. 

Naz while a great piece and a fan favorite, was not untouchable for a star, and LaMelo is a budding star.

The team is likely improved from last year, through the subtraction of Randle, and the addition of LaMelo. 

The Ant dissatisfaction thing is overblown and is the typical media machine trying to push a young superstar out and into a bigger market share, because the NBA and it's beat HATE the idea of smaller markets being worth a damn in the game. Local beats jumped pretty quick to kill that talk.

trust in tTim. What they’ve done has worked but only to a point. Not a fan of how he’s flushing a decade of future draft picks down the toilet but I feel like draft picks in the NBA are overrated especially when you’re a perennially good team

max contract length is 5 years and max salary is 35% of the cap so its going to be a long while as the NBAs purported goal is to break up super teams and punish you for having multiple max players

Im an anti LeBron regardless. I think it would be funny how other anti LeBron fans will turn tail and idolize the clown. Though it would be sooooooo Minnesota if he came and brought Minnesota a championship.

Brett Favre anyone? Remember how many MN fans turned? I always laugh at that one. 😉 
LeBron is a clown professionally. Good person off the court, though, for sure.

The LeBron clown show will be even bigger if his kid rides his shirttail to wherever he goes.

I would lean to Philly followed by Cleveland. The best bet for Minnesota is, the Wolves are probably the best team in the LeBron hunt. And some NBA analysts think it would be his best chance of winning a title.

I never ran to another team, outside the Devils, when the North Stars folded/left. 😛 Fan one from day one for all my other teams. 

As for being a fan of a player, always hated Modano (pretty boy, IMO), would never cheer for Favre, and F Christian Laettner (sp?). Also F Tie Domi, that little POS....

You admitted you adopted the Bills because of Jim Kelly and you adopted the Cubs when they became the media darlings after anyone could get WGN via cable.
