With Ant and KAT both in the lineup tonight, this will be the 140th game the two have played in together.
While I was looking that up, noticed this: The total number of games played together in Minnesota for KAT and DLo was 109. (Nice record though: 63-46. Ant and KAT are 64-75) – 8:16 PM

#Celtics 137 #Spurs 93 FINAL. 36 min for Brown. 27 for Smart, who was ejected. 32 for White. 26 for Brogdon. 22 for Horford.
C’s on to a banged up #Wizards team in DC on Tuesday, then the big one on Thursday at the #Bucks.

True but surprising: Warriors Q4 def rating on the road (117.5) this season is dreadful but BETTER than that of the Grizzlies (119.0), who are third in overall def rating. Blowouts can skew, but . . . – 7:13 PM

With the Lakers loss, the Pelicans are temporarily in 7th place in the West.
Pels are tied with Minnesota but have the tiebreaker for now.

#Pelicans move ahead of Lakers (37-38) and into eighth place after LAL loses at home to Bulls. It’s already been an excellent day on scoreboard for New Orleans. Pels will be in No. 7 spot later today if Minnesota (37-38) loses at Golden State. Btw Lakers’ next game is Wed at Chi – 5:56 PM

A few games coming up in the next 2 weeks that don’t involve the Suns but are notable head to-head matchups to keep an eye on that could swing things.
Tonight it’s the Wolves and Warriors. GS 1 back in loss column and MIN is 2. Suns own tiebreaker with GSW. TBD with MIN (2-1). – 5:28 PM

Cavs probably using their MLE on a wing, but would love to see him in the Kevin Love role for them.
Heat could protect him defensively and he could really help their offense.
Philly could use an all-offense bench big. Maybe Minnesota if Naz Reid gets offered more elsewhere? – 3:35 PM

Dallas (36-39) has lost 4 straight and 7 of its last 9. With 7 games remaining the Mavs trail 6th place Golden State by 3 games in the loss column and Warriors own the tiebreaker.
It’s increasingly likely that the best Dallas will be able to muster is a play-in slot. If that. – 3:25 PM
