Dwight Jaynes @dwightjaynes You can blame CJ all you want but there was blame all over the place. Dame had two empty hero-ball possessions late in the game and missed that FT. Defensive mistakes by all. Should have had Kings put away long before final minutes. Still too much iso. 1/2 – 9:52 AM

Justin Kubatko @jkubatko Damian Lillard last night:
✅ 32 PTS
✅ 6 REB
✅ 10 AST
Lillard has recorded 38 career 30-point, 10-assist games, double that of any other player in @Portland Trail Blazers history (Clyde Drexler, 19). pic.twitter.com/ZkHoCRmg4L9:51 AM

Justin Kubatko @jkubatko Giannis Antetokounmpo last night:
✅ 33 PTS
✅ 7 REB
✅ 5 AST
✅ 12-17 FG
It’s the 26th time Antetokounmpo has scored at least 30 points while shooting 70% from the field.
The only active players with more such games are LeBron James and Dwight Howard, both with 32. pic.twitter.com/7gNk8sTWqG9:41 AM

Justin Kubatko @jkubatko Stephen Curry last night:
✅ 25 PTS
✅ 10 AST
✅ 6-11 3P
Curry has recorded at least 10 assists and five 3PM in a game 40 times, the second-most such games in NBA history (James Harden, 56).
Curry has 23 more such games than all other players in @Golden State Warriors history combined. pic.twitter.com/2VRTac5KO59:31 AM

Stephen Curry @StephenCurry30 Family things! Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 pic.twitter.com/O9m8Mr8bjB2:34 AM

Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis Ime Udoka, a #Nets assistant last year, on Aldridge going through his heart issue: “Literally he was there for 5, 6 hours w/ his heart racing, slowing down…He should’ve reached out to our team doctors. That’s what made him walk away was because of how scared he got that night.” – 2:19 AM

Lauren Rosen @LaurenMRosen Seth Curry on facing his brother Steph over the course of their careers:
“It’s always cool. It’s not always fun.” – 1:41 AM

Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis #Nets finding their identity after rout of #Celtics. Harden: “If we don’t guard, we can’t win. If we don’t give ourselves a chance on the defensive end, offensively, we’re not able to get out and be ourselves. So [this] was a great example of that.” #NBA nypost.com/2021/11/24/sur…1:33 AM

Monte Poole @MontePooleNBCS Once down 19, Warriors come back for a 116-96 win over the 76ers.
-Curry 25, Wiggins 19, Poole 17
-JTA and Porter HUGE off the bench (25 pts, 10/11 FG)
-Record moves to 16-2 – 12:42 AM

Michael Gallagher @MikeSGallagher Kind of ridiculous defense from Davion on Dame to close. Kings ran higher coverage and Dame had Davion on his hip throughout the fourth.
He needs to play more. – 12:40 AM

Sean Cunningham @SeanCunningham Jusuf Nurkic fouls out after CJ McCollum slapped with a 5 second violation. Portland derailing and the Kings taking advantage – 12:36 AM

Jason Anderson @JandersonSacBee Off Night vs. Dame Time – 12:26 AM

Marcus Thompson @ThompsonScribe Curry got lucky when Korkmaz corner 3 rimmed out. Poole wasn’t so lucky. With Draymond in the lane, not sure why they’re so far off corner shooters – 12:25 AM

James Ham @James_HamNBA Mitchell abuses McCollum again. 114-111 Kings with 3:04 remaining. – 12:22 AM

Rudy Gobert @rudygobert27 Great win tonight! 🙏🏽Also got my @metab_nft 🔥🔥🔥. Love this project. #dontmissout #ontothenextone pic.twitter.com/5oInHJZdnu12:17 AM
