The sounds of Nickelback coming from the portable speaker inside the Miami Heat locker room were unmistakable. As the rest of his teammates and Heat staffers quietly showered, got dressed and picked over a postgame pizza spread following a 126-114 overtime loss to the Orlando Magic on Saturday, Jimmy Butler decided it was the the right time to pump up the volume on his stereo and blast the familiar sounds of Chad Kroeger's voice.

I can't :rofl: 

88 points pduh! What a show!

The Knicks are gonna lose the #5 seed!

😂😂😂😂😂

Edit the one on twitter is a easier to watch the video.

The Lakers are trash. The purple & gold army is begging to get the play-in. Luka got his 16 tech & will miss the game against the Pacers. What a hot-headed moron. If the Knicks can't beat the Rockets, maybe they aren't fit to be in the playoffs.

Dallas resting all of their guys including Luka Doncic despite being a half game out of the final spot in the West Conf. play in game all to protect their draft pick from going to 11th since it's Top 10 protected(Otherwise it goes to the Knicks) is absolutely embarrassing. They are tied with Chicago who will rest guys as well but they at least clinched a spot in the play-in so Dallas is going to do everything to avoid going 11th.

We will see how big Adam Silver is towards rewarding the integrity of wanting guys to play for the sake of competitiveness. Knicks played games at the very end and got screwed over by the awful lotto system a few years ago, remains to be seen what happens. 

If Silver allows Dallas to keep their draft pick out of this, it gives an awful message that this play in game means absolutely nothing and that having a top 10 pick is a better move, especially if it goes to another team if certain conditions are met.

What a disaster that trade for Kyrie was for the Mavs.

Going from have a rather safe spot in the playoffs, to being eliminated, with no chance at even the play-in. Losers of 17 of their last 24.

This should get the GM axed.

Sounds like it was a Mark Cuban move, especially since he has gone on record of saying he wants to resign Irving. 

The Kyrie Irving effect and it’s toxic I get it Cuban trying to bring Luka some help which he does but if it doesn’t work(which it didn’t work.) it’s best to not bring him back let him sign with the Lakers or else where
