Basketball.
This team takes years off of my life. What a game.
That win was huge for this teams momentum in this playoff race. Doesn't get much better then opening the all star break with an OT win against a good team after being down all game. Every game at this point counts.
God I love the Pels Twitter account.

Moore looks terrible out there. Great win regardless. AD and Jrue punished them with that pic and pop down the stretch.
Props to Gentry as well.. he called a hell of a game and adjusted his lineup playing the hot hand in Clark. The plays down the stretch with AD and Jrue won this game
Ilyasova is available but we're not said to be in the conversation for him
Yea he has been bad lately. Was a player I didn't want to part with in a trade but knew he would be a piece needed to do so. With his play now he doesn't look worth much. I'm not going to judge him on a little stretch of basketball though. He's in a slump and they happen to thbe best of them. This team badly needs him on his A game for this playoff battle.
He's just missing shots and that happens to shooters. He's going to go through hot stretches and some cold ones. That's what separates the good from great ones and even they have long stretches at times. I'll take his overall body of work since he has been here over cherry picking some games he plays bad in.
Anthony Davis is on his way to earning All-NBA honors this season, an accomplishment that would make him super max eligible in the summer of 2019. Based on earning All-NBA in 2016-17 and likely 2017-18 (two out of the previous three seasons), Davis would be eligible to sign a five-year $230M extension with a starting salary of $39.7M in July 2019. The extension could project to be the largest in NBA history.

I don't mind the missed shots as much. It's his poor play on D and not being able to stay in front of his man. He is kind of slow for a smaller guard. Jrue took his man on that last possession by Miami and I'm glad he did and that they noticed Moore was struggling to get stops. Jrue was big time on both ends of the floor. Ad is just playing out of his mind right now.
29 of the last 32 points came from AD and Jrue. 3 points were scored on 1 shot by a player other than AD or Jrue in overtime (Niko).
That was an amazing performance.
