Westbrook with 35/14/21 last night and 22/15/14 tonight.
Nets finally jumped the Sixers
The Nets have had a very easy stretch, the Sixers have had a long west coast trip without Embiid, but dang, would hate to lose this 1 seed
I don't think Celtics are any better after the trades. I don't think they need to be in win now mode though.
And they gave up a 13-3 run after I made that post.
Their window is long, their young guys can definitely all still improve, but I agree they’re kind of a mess this season. And you love to see it. Would love for CLT and NYK to finish with better records.

Cool chart Townie. How do they assign matchup difficulty? Feels like it would be hard for that not to be somewhat arbitrary, especially considering the number of switches that happen in today's NBA.
Seems like bigs who stay on bigs aren’t going to be high in matchup difficulty but bigs who switch more will be. So Gobert is excellent at shutting down bigs and doesn’t have much opportunity to shut down guards and wings.
