Rough night for me after a couple of killer days. 0/2 so far, but hopefully things turn around tonight.

Luol Deng, Byron Mullens, and Ben Gordon all just got the call-up for the USA preliminary roster heading into the 2012 Olympics in Los Angeles.
It’s gonna be wild watching them at the Olympics.
For me, it’s New York or nothing—I don't care about any other teams.

What would even be the point if everyone supported the exact same teams? If everybody cheered for the same NBA franchises and the same sports across the board, the whole thing would lose its soul. 100 people, 100 different vibes—that's just how it works. Honestly, I can't stand those mindless fanbases. They have zero creativity in their game, they look totally lost on the court, and they’ve got one supposed "All-Star" who, if you ask me, doesn't even deserve the title.

We might actually see a 5.5 over tonight. Those odds look pretty tempting to me; even though they haven't been playing for anything lately, they've finally found their rhythm. As for Philly, I don't even know what to say—personally, that team is just straight-up gross.

With everything being said about the Chicago game, nobody’s even mentioned that Melo and his crew might be facing a massive, season-defining showdown against the Bucks tomorrow.

Looks like it is.

I saw you mentioned they played the Celtics a few days ago, but why the late update?

Lawrence Castillo76 said:Also, seriously, why on earth is the Chicago game scheduled for 4 PM? I've never seen anything like it in my life.

The only thing that makes sense is if they're airing it on a major national network right after the Miami vs. Boston game.

And another thing—why on earth is the game in Chicago starting at 4:00 PM? I swear, I've never seen anything like it in my life.

That's because their offer is a total disaster—everything about it is just way too high. $67 Man, they’re treating my authorization like I just dropped ten grand on them. I swear, every time I try to pay online, what shows up on the receipt is totally different from what I actually clicked—and there isn't even a warning pop-up or anything. Seriously, if they didn't have those pathetic slot machines and poker tables that people keep throwing money at, they would've had this fixed ages ago.

Just hit a 10.5 NY line at Stanley's regardless of how the MVP is looking, but man, the authorization limits on a relatively low stake? Seriously, what kind of bottom-tier sportsbook is this?

On the flip side, Lowry is heading back to Houston on Friday and that’s just two days away, while Dragic has basically become untouchable—he's easily Player of the Week in the West. Here's what he had to say: "Thank you guys!!!! I couldn't do it without my teammates. Let's get to the playoffs." Even though I hate playing Portland at home, I'll probably have to take the mid-range 3.5 on the road; don't want to overdo it because I gotta save some cash if word gets out that the Spurs trio is out, or at least two of them.

Stayed up way too late eating junk, and somehow ended up seeing this. Everyone's jumping in, nice work. Keep this energy going.☕

Account's totally drained now, so all I can do is cheer.

It’s like they were given a free pass or something.

Nobody's playing, honestly. But even with this lineup, the Spurs look solid. Considering how thin the rotation gets if Miles and Watson end up sitting out, things could get messy fast—but man, I really hope it doesn't come to that.

The official confirmation just hit my inbox. Now comes the massive feeding frenzy, and then we’ll all be sitting there cursing the universe at 6 AM when reality finally sets in.

Is Smith actually starting against Orlando? lol. I mean, it doesn't seem like a total disaster, but he's probably just gonna get about 20 minutes of action before they bench him.

And I guess Lin is just sitting there waiting for news. Orlando suspended the head coach, so it looks like total chaos over there right now.

Nothing's happening for the Spurs before 2:00. I just don't see it going down.

Collison is dealing with a groin injury and is sidelined for the #Pacers. Expect Arthur Hill2 to step into the starting lineup instead.

Eric Smith: Bargnani isn't gonna suit up for the #Raptors
