Three best teams I’ve seen the last nine days in the tournament are Miami, FAU, and K St. Grown men playing 90s NBA level hoops. – 8:06 PM

Jacque Vaughn’s update on Ben Simmons:
“Ben was going through the process of strengthening, being on the court, being reevaluated. During one of those reevaluations, the impingement presented itself… He’s probably not going to join us for the rest of the year, in all honesty” pic.twitter.com/7K55gb1XUH – 6:54 PM

The #Cavs haven’t made the playoffs since 2018. That would change tonight with a Miami win over Brooklyn. It’s not something that would be immediately celebrated, though. Their sights are set on securing home court in the first round. thelandondemand.com/news/2023/mar/… – 4:52 PM

This would be part of a Bulls rebuild/reload. Two firsts for Caruso is a nice get.
The Nets don’t necessarily have to rebuild, but they’re so deep on the wing that if they can get a first for Royce it probably makes sense to consider it. – 4:00 PM

Mavs would probably want to improve the big spots. Would still have the MLE. Maybe they keep Powell/Wood and maybe they don’t.
I really like the Heat turning Duncan and a mid/late first into Haradway. Desperately needed scoring punch, plus gets him to his dad’s old team. – 3:59 PM

Trying some “let’s fix the Mavs this offseason” trades. How does this look?
Went with the “Bulls want two firsts for Caruso” story from February. Heat give up a late first to get off Duncan. Mavs get their wing.

Funny to see Jimmy Butler actually admitting to starting to play for real right after the All Star break
I’m going to make sure to get him to admit Playoff Jimmy is a real thing before the post-season….

So a big game tonight for the Heat against the Nets
Can really add some cement to that 6th seed
Plus after that last Nets game, Jimmy Butler should really come to play
Also that other game didn’t count
Jimmy said it: he doesn’t start playing til after All Star break – 2:59 PM
