I watch every NBA game, but the next day and tweet my real time reactions. I do this for the pure love of basketball. I hope you enjoy it here. Please, no spoilers. Here to spread basketball joy, not provide analysis. #NBAsky

Larry Johnson and Shawn Bradley will now be the only NBA players from the original Space Jam movie not to have their numbers retired. Acknowledge them!

The Charlotte Hornets on Feb. 11 are retiring the No. 1 jersey of Muggsy Bogues, the shortest player in NBA history at 5-foot-3. Bogues spent 10 of his 14 NBA seasons in Charlotte (1988-1998) and is the franchise leader in assists, steals and minutes.

That’s it for now. Still three games from last night, but they will be later. I must venture into the world. Have a wonderful day if I end up watching those without my thumbs on the internet.

Still have 3 games after #Nuggets v #Warriors, but they will be for a little later. This is the final one for now because I know it is the other 20+ game from last night. I assume that’s bad news for the Worried Warriors. My plan is to skip the non Joker minutes here. I watch all the Joker touches

Benches empty. The point total won’t show it, but Curry dominated that game by dominating one quarter and it opened everything up when he sucks in that gravity. I’m still worried about the Warriors, but Curry reminded me he’s still here and can still be a one man offense on a given night.

I mean the Warriors are up 4 at the half. There is a chance I’m just horribly wrong about what team won by 20+ here. I would still bet on the Nuggets. I’m totally ready to go down big with this ship.

Joker with a casual 9-5-5 in the first. Not quite the blowout I expected though. Warriors within 4. They have seemed to fade as games go on this season. Probably both an age and depth issue. None of this Warriors season is fun so far.

Not much drama down the stretch, but the Rockets provided plenty of highlights to make up for it in the 4th. KD didn’t even play the 4th, which is importing consideing what they asked of him last season. Rockets are not only fun, but really good.

At least two of Pacers/Bucks, Thunder/Suns and Grizzlies/Jazz will probably be laptop games later. If anyone out there thinks one of these should absolutely be a big screen game. Lmk and I’ll probably lead off with it tomorrow instead.

I asked ChatGPT to tell me if any games were 20+ point games without any other spoilers. This is one of them. I assume that means the #Celtics took care of business at home against the #Bulls. As such, I’ll be watching the 15 minute version of this.

Wooooof Heat. 0-4. It was a good game, they just couldn’t execute down the stretch. Needed a few stops or a few big threes and came up empty on both. Giannis had 29-14-11, but most of it felt like it came in the first three. Good Coop game after taking one off.

I couldn’t believe this didn’t go in. Ant was on fire in the 4th and OT. LaMelo, not so much. But if you are Wolves fan and don’t accept a few of those it’s gonna be a frustrating year. Good Cavs win there. Time to cook some eggs.

That good Minny basketball was just a first half thing apparently. James Harden is doing his thing if you enjoy that. That beard is thick. I imagine it takes a lot to keep up and not smell like something crawled up and died in it.

Free basketball! I did not clock that one on the length of the all possessions or time remaining so it’s a fun surprise. Was actually a fun game down the stretch. Back and forth with both teams hitting some big shots down the stretch until neither did in their final possessions. 5 more minutes!

First half wasn’t as exciting as I hoped. Minny played some good basketball, let by double digits basically the entire second. Game is still easily within reach for the Cavs though. Only down ten at the half. So the potential for exciting is here.

Good early morning, basketball world! Since there are nine games to watch and mostly because I couldn’t fall back asleep, we are kicking things off now. #Hornets v #Wizards leads off, hopefully something breaks Eric on the mic again tonight. Wearing my Bullets Monroe throwback for today’s watch.

Wiz got it to 3, but never had the ball with a chance to tie. Brandon finished with 39 and Moose absolutely dominated the offensive glass for three quarters. I’ll be back in a half hour or so for game 2. It might not be in order…..

They asked during this quarter who had the most offensive rebounds in game. I didn’t even need a second to say Moses. I didn’t know it was him, but who else are you gonna guess than the OG Butt Bully, Moses himself.

Hornets up 10 at the half. That quarter had the great backhanded compliment, “Nobody sells a foul like Trey Young.”. Hope this one remains close. Not gonna skip cause I timed it so I can get my morning macchiato before the next one

I’m pretty sure the all possessions games are ai generated this season because they are available almost immediately after games end as opposed to several hours later. The availability has been nice, the one thing I’ve noticed in the product is they show less replays, which is not nice.

Good middle of the night, basketball world! Listening to the Monday @nodunks.com and they are discussing Sengun’s bottom heaviness. He’s what I call a “butt bully”. The GOAT “butt bully” was Moses Malone. Who is your favorite butt bully, NBA world? #Nbasky

Another day of basketball complete. Bit of a bummer really. Two major injuries coupled with not much drama. Luka’s 50 was the highlight but even that game riled me up because of the Jazz decisions. Hopefully a better one tomorrow. Til then, have a great day out there!
