KAT and Mouse
You know that one friend who is always flinching every time anything happens? That’s Tyler Zeller.
Karl-Anthony Towns hits him with the eyebrow fake, and Zeller’s up in the air faster than George Clooney when someone needs to be fired.
Buck Life
This season has not gone too well for the Lakers. Monday night was no exception.
Milwaukee was already up about 100 at this point, so the off-the-backboard alley-oop may be seen as showboating a bit. But that doesn’t make it any less awesome.
Schröd Awakening
Dennis Schroder is very, very quick end-to-end. Even the defending champions were surprised by just how quick.
Alas, the shot didn’t count. But that doesn’t take away from the fact that Schroder jettisoned down court that quickly, or the sick pass he delivered.
Curry, A Favor
But in the end, Stephen Curry had the last laugh again. Steve Kerr’s team didn’t look good for most of the second half, but Curry’s sensational play led the team to another victory. This is one of his best assists of the year, and that’s saying something.

Talk about demanding the whole defense’s attention. Every single Hawks player is concerned about Curry on this possession, right up until he finds Barnes in the corner for a three.
Steph Up 3D
And, if you thought he was done there, you are incorrect. Normally, a one-on-four fastbreak isn’t a great idea. These rules don’t apply to the reigning MVP.
I think it’s fair to say Curry’s pretty good at basketball.
