"All year it's been: "The Celtics can't be trusted. They won't even make the Finals." then "The Celtics didn't play anyone. Easy path" then "The Celtics aren't battle tested. They aren't ready to play a good team." Now it's become: "The Celtics aren't winning the way I think they should so this is all actually bad." It's all gotten really silly at this point. At some point you have to realize they don't care who they play who scores or how it looks. They just keep winning"

"At no point will James Harden be extension-eligible. Not now. Not in the summer. Not next season. If we're talking about a promise to re-sign him as a FA this summer or next well let's just say that LA is probably being pretty cautious about anything that runs afoul of the CBA right now. @KeithSmithNBA It's the promise of an extension I assume @KeithSmithNBA It's the promise of an extension I assume"

"Since it's also come up: James Harden has a player option next season. If he opts in his $42M contract becomes partially guaranteed for just over $13M. The Clippers or another team don't have an option to get out of Harden's contracts themselves for $0. Harden has the option not the team. Most a team could save is by waiving-and-stretching that $13M over three years at $4M per season. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2018693133890900278 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2018693133890900278"

"Doing some math on a James Harden-Darius Garland swap: Both have 15% trade bonuses. But Garland can't get any of his bonus because he's already above the maximum salary for his Years of Service. Harden can take his bonus but only about $264K of it (bringing his salary even to Garland's). This is because the Cavs can't take back more than they send out in a trade. Nor can the Cavs aggregate by sending out another player. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2018744541742821426 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2018744541742821426"

"The CHA-CHI-OKC-PHI trade probably won't get put together as one big trade. There could be reaggregation and roster spot issues with that.

"Joe Mazzulla's tough-love approach with Hugo Gonzalez continues. Gonzalez blew a defensive rotation. Then on the other end he had a clear kickout pass to a shooter in the corner and Hugo tried the layup himself. The ball got knocked off his knee but then Hugo asked for what would have been a bad challenge. Three strikes and you're out.temporarily. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2021752090805014852 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2021752090805014852"

"White gives it up to Queta. Queta hands off to Pritchard and rolls into the paint. Pritchard drives the ball and skips it to White who relocated to the corner. White catches and immediately swings to Hauser who lifted from the corner into the space vacated by Queta/PP. Hauser drills the three.

"I recently learned that the NHL had to make rules about who was active for games because they had so many tanking-related shenanigans going on. The NFL shuts guys down when the season is lost all the time. They play a bunch of meaningless games each season. Tanking is an issue for the NBA. They should try to fix it. But let's not suggest that the other North American spots don't have tanking too. (I'm separating North American because the real solution to tanking is Pro/Rel but that's never happening here.) @KeithSmithNBA The games are only meaningless because they choose to make them"

"I've started diving deeper into [----] NBA Draft prep. So you'll start seeing a lot more of those notes. I plan to spend most of the All-Star break on draft work. A player who has stood out to me is Quadir Copeland at NC State. Great size for a lead ballhandler. Good feel for the game. Competitive on defense and on the glass. If the shooting is real (he's WAY above anything he's done before as a shooter) Copeland is at least a two-way candidate. https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022104495652524062 https://twitter.com/i/web/status/2022104495652524062"

Of course Diabate is going to react to that. Duren's penalty feels fair. Diabate's feels harsh. @KeithSmithNBA It doesnt seem like you watched Moussas behavior end-to-end if you think how he acted was at all equivalent to Duren.
