[Tip Of The Tower @TipOfTheTower]

Amid the rumours suggesting the #Raptors have expressed interest in Andre Drummound, @Therriault3D explains why trading for the centre doesn't make sense.

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

For @TipOfTheTower, here is my take on whether the Raptors should trade for Andre Drummond. The short answer? No.

@nickraponi In his bag you know what I meant lol

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

@nickraponi He sauced up Giannis 1 on 1... I've never known him as a shot creator like that. But he makes a shot a game where I'm like "Oh that's in his bad? Damn."

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

Cade Cunningham SZN

[Adrian Wojnarowski @wojespn]

ESPN Sources: Minnesota Timberwolves guard D’Angelo Russell will undergo arthroscopic surgery to remove a loose body in his left knee and is expected to miss four-to-six weeks.

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

Fred Van Vleet, Mo Williams, Brandon Jennings and Jerry Stackhouse all have higher career highs than Chris Paul.

It means nothing.

[ry @NinjaBands]

Ben Simmons has a higher career high than Jayson Tatum

[Shams Charania @ShamsCharania]

Free agent forward Andre Roberson has agreed to a deal with the Brooklyn Nets, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium.

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

This is a SPICY take.

[SamSheehanNBA Presented by Sportsbook.org @SamSheehanNBA]

Based on what I saw today, might be in the Celtics interest to sell high on Tatum before the league catches on.

That was not a Top-10 player, Lebron James-type effort

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

Celtics broadcast crew really think everything is a missed call or the other team got away with one.

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

I can tell right away how much people know about the game of basketball by the way they talk about Russell Westbrook.

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

If they can re discover their defensive identity with OG returning, things could get interesting. Ill leave it at that for now.

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

The Toronto Raptors haven't scored less than 121 points in the month of February. Yes 2 of those games were against the Nets and the Wizards, but still an encouraging sign for a team whose offense is the weakness of their team. Likely going to be a top 10 offense after tonight.

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

Jaylen Brown man my goodness. The bag is so deep lol.

Hes on my favorite players list.

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

@mattdavirro @YoungNBA You don't start counting the steps until:

He picks up the ball with 2 hands, his hand is under the ball, he palms the ball or the ball switches hands.

None of your "steps" count until 1 of those 4 things occurs.

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

@YoungNBA As @DevInTheLab likes to say, he was outta there lol

[Tim Cato @tim_cato]

Mark Cuban decided before the season the Mavericks would no longer play the national anthem, and it hasn't been before any of the team's 13 home games.

It's the first instance we know of a pro sports team striking the U.S. anthem from the pre-game. https://t.co/VaReFVCu4U

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

@SethPartnow But isn't it somewhat necessary though. Isn't it a problem if we can't distinguish the data differences between an uncontested layup and an up and under around shot blocker? Maybe I'm missing the point, but I think we should be tracking these difference, just maybe less of them?

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

I am also aware how much these guys give up defensively. But both those team's defensive issues are much bigger than the those individuals despute their high minute totals.

[ISO BALL PODCAST @isoballpod]

I had Beal and Lavine as All-Stars despite the Wizards and Bulls record. Usually, I'm not big on rewarding stats on losing teams. But you see the amount of posessions and above average TS% of the 2, thats why I had no problem putting them both in there.

[Tom Bassine @tvbassine]

A look at the player with the most true shooting attempts on each team (a TS attempt is a field goal attempt or trip to the the FT line).

Beal has taken over a quarter of WAS shots. Wood on HOU has the lowest proportion of shots for a team leader.
