NBA 2018/19

DeRozan had Jonathon Simmons shook haha

WADE SHEESH

Father Prime still got it!

Chris Paul hurt his hamstring smh... Just can't get healthy man

Ah man not again.. can't catch a break smh

Thought Gordon was about to make that to win, but it came out.. Great win for Miami, they've done well against West teams this season man and are just playing good ball in general rn

In terms of Houston, you could see how they got worse as soon as CP3 went out though. They can't afford to lose him for long

Lou Williams is an underrated passer imo
