The Sultan of Stat blew out two calculators and an abacus trying to keep up with the scoring performances in the Celtics’ win at Dallas tonight.
But our man @DickLipe held it together and even threw in an interesting Joel Embiid/Karl-Anthony Towns note of historical significance. pic.twitter.com/lnXIBjhkLR – 11:44 PM

Anthony Edwards when asked if the focus just shifted to feeding KAT after he started off hot.
“Just trying to get it to him. Yeah, for sure. He hit his first six, seven shots, and I think everybody, pretty much, was just trying to see him go get 100 points. I know I was.” – 11:43 PM

Anybody who watched Brandon Miller in high school knew that he had a sick midrange game, and that the lack of midrange at Alabama was largely just a function of their offense.
But man, tonight vs. MIN was such a great showcase for what that part of his game can be long-term – 10:31 PM

Hornets with the MAJOR upset win over the T-Wolves. Played with hustle and bustle in the 4th quarter, can’t ignore the missed foul call on Towns on the final possession. Still, had no right to be in that game with such little size. NSJ/Miller hit some clutch shots in the 4th – 10:26 PM

Gallo: 8 points
Stew didn’t start but played 9 min, was awesome on D
Team isn’t perfect, but the rotation changes over the last 4/5 gms has made this team competitive every night. – 7:43 PM
END OF 1Q: Pistons 30, Bucks 30. And I thought Detroit spent the first five minutes stuck in mud.

Coby White (1560) and DeMar DeRozan (1554) rank 1st & 2nd, respectively, among all NBA players in total minutes played this season. Both have played the most min by any Bulls player through the team’s first 44 games since 2015-16 (J. Butler), per Bulls PR. @cbefred ? Crickets! – 7:15 PM

A lot of Terry Rozier to the Heat trade buzz emerging from Miami based reporters this afternoon. I don’t take anything less than two 1sts + Jovic+Lowry for Charlotte
I discussed a Rozier deal in depth with @TheMiamiHeatUK on the video below

Finch says Mike Conley actually feeling some tightness in his hamstring, which is more of a reason for sitting out tonight as a precaution versus just a general rest day – 6:18 PM

Troy Brown Jr. has started the three games Anthony Edwards has missed thus far this season. But part of that was because Nickeil Alexander-Walker was already in the starting lineup during those games because McDaniels was also hurt at that time.

Hearing a lot of “Terry Rozier’s contract is team friendly because the final year is partially guaranteed.”
That’s not quite right.
It *is* partially guaranteed, but the difference in money is only ~$2M ($24.9M vs $26.6M)…
So not very “team friendly.” – 2:28 PM
