Speaking of Indy, I see they are up 25 on Charlotte at the half, which brings to mind a thought. What does Jordan have to do to turn that team around?

IMO, he lost out big in 2012 when Anthony Davis went to the other Hornets team...the one that ended up being called the Pelicans.
 
When it comes to analyzing Mike's flops, one has to begin with bad draft day decisions.

Top 6 Worst Draft Mistakes By Michael Jordan | Fadeaway World

On the court, Jordan may be better than Kobe, Shaq and Jabbar....combined. But, in the front office, he just might be even worse than James Dolan

Michael Jordan may be greatest player, but he's NBA's worst owner

Between the time Jordan bought a minority share in the team in 2006, purchased controlling interest in 2010, to now, the Hornets have had 11 lottery picks and landed just one All-Star – Kemba Walker.

No one has proved more convincingly than Jordan, with his six NBA championship rings, that having talent does not guarantee the ability to spot talent. During his three-year stint as team president of the Washington Wizards, Jordan most famously used the No. 1 pick of the 2001 draft on Kwame Brown, who averaged 6.6 points and 5.5 rebounds during his 13-year NBA career.

...Charlotte has passed on eventual All-Stars such as Brandon Roy, Damian Lillard and Giannis Antetokounmpo.

The blunders started when Charlotte used the third pick of the 2006 draft on Adam Morrison, who five years later was playing for a team called Red Star Belgrade.

Indy wins by nearly 40. Ouch.

Bucks and Raps toe to toe in the third.

Great players often make poor coaches or general managers because they never had to analyze their own talent.

He does seem to be a pretty good businessman though.

Michael Jordan Sells Minority Interest In Hornets, And His Return Is Even Better Than Reports Suggest

The valuation of the Hornets has increased 757% since Jordan bought control. In contrast, the stock market is up only 160%. So Jordan’s investment in the Hornets has done 4.7 times better than the S&P 500.

Getting back to the actual games, Bucks are bad ass.

49 wins and no one has yet come close to playing on their level.

They go to LA on March 6.
 
Cleveland whooping on Philly tonight, up 20 after midway through 3.
 
Potential good game in Milwaukee as OKC comes in to challenge the future champs.

Well, if the Laker season plays out like the first quarter against GS yesterday, we may have us some drama. AD and LBJ just might become quite the tandem.

They certainly were yesterday.

If Bernie gets elected will he force the NBA and other professional sports teams to redistribute the enormous salaries of pro athletes? I mean, if we shouldn't have millionaires and billionaires then we don't need pro athletes, right?

Did you stumble into the wrong sub :confused:
 
Charlotte beat the Raps by 3 in Toronto, which is just weird. The rest of the games played out as expected, even the two blowouts.

Bucks by 47 over OKC.

Clips by 29 over Nuggets.
 
Lakers are in Memphis tonight. This could have been a test, but the Grizz have been playing like crap as of late. Nonetheless, Lakes looking to win their 8th straight and 46th on the season.

Houston facing Celts in Boston is probably the game of the night. Both teams are hot: 8-2 over L-10.
 
Memphis up by 12 at the half. Somewhat a surprise, I doubt the Grizzlies can keep this lead alive in the 2nd half. Meanwhile, Boston's early 14-point lead looks more likely to hold up as the game progresses.
 
Lakers are laying an egg, down 20 now, end of three.

Celts and Rockets looks like junk too: Celts up 11 at the half.

Indy vs. Cleveland is the best game tonight. 3 points between them early in the 4th.
 
Unlike the Lakers, who lost by 18, Houston came alive and now leads the Celts in the 4th. 3-point game.
