TNT broadcasters just asked: Will Nikola Jokic be suspended for Game 5? Team execs are wondering this too since the rule book says a player should be ejected for entering the stands. Jokic technically just went courtside so there’s room for interpretation. We’ll find out Monday.

I watched every block by Jaren Jackson Jr. in slow motion from alternate angles to investigate the NBA Reddit thread claiming the Grizzlies scorekeeper is "posting fraudulent numbers." But only 3 of his 66 home blocks are incorrectly labeled, a completely insignificant amount.

The Celtics have broken the Kings, who are once again proving to be far too small. Not enough size, particularly with help defense. And not enough rebounding. Bad sign to lose like this against Boston on the second night of a road back-to-back without two of its best players. It should be obvious at this point the Kings are a great regular season team but not equipped to win against NBA Finals contenders, which Sacramento won't be without making a big move.

If “everything’s on the table” other than Steph Curry as Brian Windhorst reports here, then “everything “ means Draymond Green is also on the table. And if Draymond is movable, his $24M salary opens A LOT of creative options for the Warriors. Buckle up!

The Heat played incredible defense to force the Bucks to run out the clock in overtime. 1. Butler mirroring Giannis' drive left 2. Martin and Strus containing Middleton's drive 3. Vincent closing out to Allen 4. Strus rotating to Holiday 5. Highsmith deterring Allen's drive This lineup played a grand total of zero minutes together all season long, yet they were connected on a string in the closing moments. Amazing. Miami deserved to advance.

Jayson Tatum and Marcus Smart were so bad in the final five minutes of that loss for the Celtics. Good effort by the Hawks on defense, but these back-to-back turnovers were sloppy and avoidable.

What happened to home teams wearing white jerseys? The home team has worn white in only 22 of 66 NBA playoff games so far this year. Ten years ago, home teams wore white in 83 of 86 games, including every round two, Conference Finals & Finals game. From 97% to 33% in a decade.

The Timberwolves used a “Gortat screen” against Victor Wembanyama last night and it opened the paint for an Anthony Edwards drive and finish. Russillo and I want to see Minnesota do more of it

Calvin Booth believes four factors converged to cost him his job with Denver. First, the Nikola Jokic effect: when you have the best player in the world, everything else gets taken for granted. Second, the friction between a tenured champion coach and a first-time GM. Third, ownership. Booth believes the Kroenke family, for all its success across sports, doesn’t place the same value on front-office executives that other organizations do. And fourth: “I think I just made it look too easy.” He elaborated: “Anybody that’s really good at something, when they make it look easy, that was really, really hard to get to. [It took] a lifetime’s worth of playing basketball, coaching basketball, having conversations, scouting, for me to go in there right away, assemble a championship team, win a championship.” My full conversation with Booth goes deeper into his time with the Denver Nuggets, Jokic, his basketball philosophy, the upcoming draft, and many more subjects. Check it out on the latest episode of The Kevin O’Connor Show.
