Have you looked at his clutch stat because it sounds like that's what being applied there.

A lot is due to the clutch where he shoots 58.2% from the field, 68% from 2 points with a lot coming from midrange. His 3rd quarter numbers still see an upswing too from the 1st half too though.

It's probably because the paint becomes more congested down the stretch and Isaac just takes the open midrange shots instead of trying to do something under the basket or kick it out for 3.

David Stern is still in serious condition following his surgery for a brain hemorrhage, yikes

in 5-8 years we'll be talking about the 2019 and 2020 bucks like we talk about the 2009 and 2010 cavs

It's comical how good Isaac is yet how underrated he still is.

Isaac went off injured last night. The result? A 30 point swing immediately afterwards in a like 8 minute stretch. A 20 point lead was eliminated in 5 minutes.

I hope so. The Bucks are the only realistic chance Wisconsin has of winning a championship in any of the major sports right now.

Giannis with a career high 5/8 in threes. That has to be scary for every other team.

The Raptors have decided to die right on time for the holidays. Can't wait to finally see a Christmas game and watch the G League team play.

Packers?

I wouldn't consider the Packers a realistic SB contender. In the NFC alone, I would probably rank them 5th out of the six projected playoff teams.

The NFC is loaded though. I'd call them a fringe contender.

The Packers crumble against real competition this year. The only playoff team theyd beat is whoever wins the NFC East, and that team isnt really a playoff team, theyre just lucky to be in the worst division in the NFL.

Rodgers isnt playing great, and the defense needs to get turnovers or they cant stop anybody. As much as it pains me to say, theyre one and done in the playoffs, and the Vikings are going to crush them on Monday

Thunder get back to .500!

very enjoyable to watch

Magic put themselves down 20 very late in the first quarter due to not scoring for 6+ minutes. They then claw it back down to only 6 in 3 minutes of the second

It's so frustrating to watch. Just don't put ourselves in stupid situations like that to begin with and we would win so many more games.

We are playing bad enough that it won't matter but these refs are fucking atrocious. Like as bad as I have seen in a looooong time

Oh hey, in what is not remotely surprising. One of the completely missed calls from the above resulted in a Magic player now being out injured

The Raptors, without Gasol, Siakam, and Powell, down by exactly 30 late in the 3rd, come all the way back to win against the Mavs, missing Doncic.

Sure.

First 30+ point comeback in the regular season in 10 years.

ya go my Spurs

Good call!

Good call!

The Packers didnt deserve the win there. Ill take it, but you shouldnt win when youre -2 in turnovers. The Vikings offense was just that inept/injured

---

what a debby downer

Anyone see that hott ass girl sitting with "Vegas Dave" on the sideline of the Lakers game? Holy hell. Someone needs to go to when Dwight Howard fouled kawhi Leonard and screengrab a shot of that girl for us. Woweee.

kings finally have their core healthy for the first game since the first of the season

fox immediately injured :(

---

Lol sent my dad to the Nets/Knicks game so he can finally root for the NY team with a winning record and they get stomped.

Edit: it sounds like he may have had another hemorrhage after his surgery for the first one which is why he's still in bad shape

Just got notified he passed away!

oh woooooow

what the fuck

David stern being the first one taken by 2020 sucks

Jonathan isaac out at least 2 months a couple of weeks after I traded for him

A+
---

How do you think I feel as a Magic fan? I threw a watch party for Magic fans at my house that game and that happened in the first 2 minutes of the game. Sucked all the life out of the room when it happened.

Honestly I will take 2 months all day long (and pending on record I'd sit him for the year) because when it happened it looked far, far worse. It absolutely looked like a really bad torn ACL

I actually drove my ass down to our G league team last night to see what our options were. BJ Johnson is really good and should be given minutes. I'd convert his two way tomorrow but Clifford being Clifford will play some depressing combo of Iwundu, Jefferson and Birch who are all awful offensively and whilst not bad defenders, nowhere near the level of Isaac.

I'd also expect Vic Law to be given a 10 day contract somewhere if the Magic don't do something with him

The Heat are going to absolutely throttle us tonight. Jazz on the B2B tomorrow probably won't be any prettier

Pistons and hawks working on a trade for andre drummond

Makes sense if he's on a player option next year and expected to decline it
---

Well I could not have been more wrong. We absolutely throttled the Heat in the 4th. Held them to 6 points and honestly it feels like we could have held them to less. We are so ridiculously up and down.

My random seat allocation did me an absolute solid too. It gave me lower bowl center court Row 6. Those 2 tickets individually would cost the same price as my 2 season tickets total. Fast Break Season Ticket undefeated.

Lets go Celtics

i've been hitting the streams hard for a decade, except for like 3 years when i would watch national TV games on cable. they've gotten stunningly good in quality and consistency.
---

yeah reddit streams + chromecast has made it extraordinarily easy to watch whatever you want

only major boxing fights seem to be able to take down the streams

---

Fultz absolutely balled out tonight and basically singlehandedly won the game. Career high 25 with a burst of 12 when he checked back in during the 4th with game tied (Magic won by 12)

third game in four nights, celtics lose. they have struggled a LOT in opening quarters, and this time, they weren't able to come all the way back. ish smith always seems to murder us.
---

Yeah but those orange and gray unis are awful though shattered sorry
