Basketball sicko
LaMelo Ball is not only scoring at the highest efficiency of his career (finally at a league average rate), but he's also putting up the most points on a nightly basis of his career. Things are finally coming together for him as a scorer.

2000+ words into writing this LaMelo Ball video with Married to the Game on repeat

A little clunky and he flirts with the travel but nice to see Knecht putting the ball on the floor and making the pass to AD on the roll

Reddish is prepping this pin-in screen for Knecht on Anthony Black, and Suggs comes to double, so this is a great cut by Knecht to give LeBron a release valve with Black thinking he's still in the corner.

They run the same thing right after, only this time, Knecht pops out off after the ball screen for the open three

Lakers run "Wide Ram 77"

1. Wide pindown for Knecht to set a ball screen for D'Lo (Ram)

2. 77 aka double drag, with Knecht setting the ball screen and popping while AD sets the second screen and rolls

What finally gets the defense is Christie faking the lift before cutting baseline for the slam

Isaiah Joe's reaction when he realizes he missed the rotation is priceless

I like how the Nuggets are having Westbrook feed Jokic in the post to create an open cut when Westbrook's defender sends the double.

Finally lost my Synergy access after 3+ years

Jokic, man. Knows that when the double comes, Marshall is gonna have to make the top rotation one pass away, so he hits Russ instead to get downhill, and with Gafford having to help on the drive, nobody is there to box out so Jokic can just clean it up for two points.

I'm just live tweeting LaMelo highlights at this point because that's all this game is becoming????

The LaMelo Ball show continues

This is just way too casual of a shot lol

These are the players that have attempted the most threes in the first 10 games of a season.

The year next to the name denotes the calendar year that they accomplished the feat in, not the season they did it. So "Steph Curry '22" would mean he did it in Oct. of 2022, not the 2021-22 season.

Ridiculous player

Beautiful execution on the BLOB by Minnesota.

Conley inbounds to Gobert, he passes to McDaniels, and meanwhile Ant is coming off of multiple screens to shake Highsmith. Gives Ant the room to drive, draw the help, and leave it for Randle to finish.

Anthony Edwards is taking more threes as the pick and roll ball handler than he has in his entire career, and he's making them at a career-high 54.6% rate.

That percentage will almost certainly come down, but this is an unbelievable development to his game.
