cj definitely addresses that, and he’ll fit seamlessly with zion.

Knicks should give Miles McBride a chance at PG. He’s averaging 30 & 10 in the G League but doesn’t play for NYK. In loss tonight: RJ Barrett had 23 points on 25 shots, Julius Randle was good early but can’t run offense late. The need for playmaking is obvious. Why not try Deuce? pic.twitter.com/9Z7fGTI23m – 12:01 AM

Bojan didn’t want to talk about his finger/shooting. But when it was pointed out that Quin said whenever questions about Bogey’s shooting come up, he always shoots better the next game, all of a sudden he was into it. “My finger hurts, I missed some open 3s, next game is great!” – 12:00 AM

epitome of the Knicks season right there:
1) Thibs cant even get the refs attention to call timeout
2) Elects to have team play out possession
3) Randle misses wide open layup with right hand
4) Mitch Rob gets rebound, fouled
5) Misses both free throws – 11:21 PM

Jazz up 59-57 at the half. Basically another individually-oriented O game for Utah (only 9 ast), but Mitchell, Conley, Bogdanovic have been very efficient. Defensively… well, it’s convenient Knicks have made only 3-18 from deep. May need to play better in 2H to win this one. – 10:08 PM

If the Nets lose tomorrow to the Celtics, Brooklyn will fall to 8th in the East. They also will be two games behind the 6th-seed Raptors in the loss column. – 9:38 PM

Not a ton of defense from the Jazz early, as they’re yielding a lot of open looks (New York is 7-13 so far). Fortunately for them, the Knicks seem pretty obsessed with taking long 2s, so it’s not as bad as it could be. 15-9 NYK, with 6:56 left 1Q. – 9:19 PM

This game reminds me of the fact that the Warriors strongly considered Josh Giddey at No. 7 in July’s NBA draft. But when he went to OKC at No. 6, that made it even clearer that Golden State needed to take Jonathan Kuminga. Both picks have been working out for the two clubs. – 8:29 PM

Embiid mostly side stepped a question about Harden on the radio just now, noting he’s on another team and he can’t do anything about that. Talked up his current teammates. But…

LaMelo Ball is Adam Silver’s injury replacement for KD at All-Star. Figured the league would want to get a rep from the overachieving Hornets in there, and Ball’s been great, but that closes the door on Siakam’s chances, barring another injury. Murray replaces Draymond out West. – 4:07 PM

I’m happy LaMelo is in the All-Star Game. He’s a blast. I can’t help but feel a little bad for Jarrett Allen, though. If we assume Evan Mobley’s ascent makes it a bit harder for Allen to make future ASGs, this could’ve been his best chance. LaMelo will be a perpetual All-Star. – 4:07 PM

As a starter this season, Killian Hayes took 21% of his shots at the rim. In seven games off the bench leading up to Sunday, that nearly doubled to 40%. His rim efficiency is up, too.
Hayes’ aggression is helping him thrive in his new role.

He passed the physical, which is notable since a cancerous mass was discovered a year ago and he had a stress fracture in his back before camp.
At the least, time in Indy potentially saved his life.

There have been zero trade discussions between the Sixers and Nets regarding James Harden, sources said. And while there are figures in Brooklyn who are open to a Harden for Ben Simmons swap, that concept won’t be entertained by Nets brass before Thursday: bleacherreport.com/articles/29531… – 7:40 AM

Summer Britcher just crashed. She crossed the line so, if she’s uninjured, she will be able to continue — but just a devastating break for the American. – 7:38 AM

Not every trade has to feature a pure winner and loser. I really liked the Caris LeVert trade for both Cleveland and Indiana.
Cleveland is in a unique position to accentuate LeVert’s talent.
Indiana gets more value than I expected for him in a trade:

Well then.
For the first time since the final run in 2010, Natalie Geisenberger won’t end a heat atop the Olympic women’s luge competition.
Julia Taubitz your new leader. – 7:00 AM

Do noises offstage in the Ben Simmons saga suggest a trade deal as deadline nears? All eyes are on a potential Simmons for James Harden deal. But a league source said that Simmons wouldn’t be moved at least until June’s draft.

“We haven’t any fear”.
The Cleveland Cavaliers took a huge turnaround win over the Pacers and proved how fearless they are. Kevin Love praised his teammates’ mindset.
“It’s a great team to be a part of”, Rajon Rondo added.

You see the intentional free-throw miss botched all the time. Perfect execution by Xavier Munford. The Hawks aggressive defence got them the lead but also caused them to give it up at the end. Big win for the Phoenix.

I met Megan Fox at the GQ Men of the Year Party at the Chateau Marmont on Sunset Blvd. 14 years ago. Great girl. She wore Chanel No.5. I took a lot of magazines home with me. I hid them under the couch. While the celebrities were talking. Got away clean like a thief in the night. pic.twitter.com/QHx7Vy5SoY – 5:07 AM

More on this storyline
Rivers learned Tuesday from a story by ESPN’s Ramona Shelburne, citing sources close to the Sixers’ embattled Ben Simmons, that Simmons is “frustrated that Rivers didn’t come to see him while he was training in Los Angeles” despite ignoring numerous text messages and calls from Rivers, as well as telling some of his Philadelphia teammates not to fly out to talk to him. “That’s the first time I’ve ever heard that,” Rivers told the Bucks County Courier Times, part of the USA TODAY Network, on Tuesday afternoon. “There’s nobody that’s been more supportive than me. I have a tape someone sent me of almost an hour of me over and over (praising Simmons). You heard me last year every day. -via Bucks County Courier-Times / February 2, 2022
“It’s all posturing. That’s why you haven’t heard me – I don’t get involved in all that stuff. I’ll leave that up to the front office and Ben’s camp. I’m staying out of that part. But, listen, some of this stuff I laugh at and I feel bad. I think Ben’s a good kid. I want Ben to do well.” -via Bucks County Courier-Times / February 2, 2022
“I always have supported Ben,” Rivers said. “I want him to do well. It’s just the excuses and all that stuff. One of the things I tell all my players is that respect is a two-way street, especially these young guys. You can’t expect to ignore us or not listen and then want us to do something different to you. You have to respect each other to be successful in life.” -via Bucks County Courier-Times / February 2, 2022
