Oh the Heat are being PETTY PETTY . After being fined by the NBA for "violating league injury reporting rules" - they've now listed EVERY SINGLE PLAYER on the injury report.

This is super weird. For those who aren't aware, it's not a real clip from Milwaukee - it's a Bucks jersey thrown over the top of a clip from the Bubble as a Blazer. Doesn't feel like this kind of thing should be there w/o a disclaimer.

I would pay money to sit in a gym and watch Hakeem teach.
After losing in the 2011 NBA Finals, LeBron trained with Hakeem during the Summer to improve his post play. He won his 1st championship the following season.

Holy crap - Reggie Miller is saying the quiet part out loud on TVā¦. āThe players have dropped the ball here.ā Saying that they should stand up and call for punishment for Kyrie Irving in the same manner they did for Sarver, et al. The silence has been deafening.

I will tell you - as media in Portland, to all Miami fansā¦. Your package sucks. Full stop. Basura. Nothing redeemable about it. Zero blue chip prospects. Zero high value picks. Itās awful. Accept that itās awful and please shut up. You might still end up w/Dame.
@HPbasketball Hi, MIA fan here. I donāt disagree that the package itself isnāt what weād typically expect for someone of Dameās caliber. Itās meh. But I think our (or at least my issue) is that across media, itās painted like the worst package ever. Given the context, that feels dramatic, no?.

If you want to draw a parallel for Lillardās growth- go back to the playoffs vs the Pelicans where NOP threw 2 & 3 at him endlessly to take him out of the game. LAL did that tonight w/AD backing it up & Dame blew it all away. Surgically dissected it & discarded them.

To emphasize the kind of month Anfernee Simons is currently having - he's scoring more than Kevin Durant (28.3 PPG) - assisting more than Ja Morant (8.2 APG) while shooting better than EVERYONE on volume (51/46/91). He's been absolutely phenomenal.

This is how you know they're cutting the coke with bleach in Miami. If Tyler Herro was that good/valuable - the deal would be done b/c teams would be lining up to get him as a 3rd wheel and send POR assets. And yet?.
@DannyMarang @HPbasketball Tyler Herro is better than every player on your roster (outside of Dame) and heās 23 but sure keep telling yourself that. When your GM forces Herro to be traded elsewhere for some picks, he will be fired in 4 years when Herro is a perennial all star for someone else.
