I asked T Lue this morning if he believes in Mason Plumlee’s 3-pointer (as T Lue watched Mason miss a shot lol)
“B. Shaw and Jay Larranaga been on me about him being able to take those shots and making them. But not yet.”

Because Damian Lillard apparently wasn’t traded to the Heat, TNT today dumped the Heat at Blazers game on Feb. 27 and replaced it with Houston-OKC. Also, because of the writer’s and actor’s strikes (now resolved), ABC has NBA next 5 Wednesdays, beginning with Bulls-Knicks tonight – 2:07 PM
