It really seems to be a four-way race for the title this season between the Warriors, Thunder, Rockets and the Celtics.

No surprise that Chriss is in the dunk contest. At this point, I think it has to be a running joke/Easter egg in MyLEAGUE/MyGM and MyCAREER.

Dialo limped off early in the fourth quarter with an ankle injury. He'll missed 2-4 weeks.

It sucks because both he and Ferguson were having breakout games off the bench.

It would be cool if you could choose the dunk contest participants yourself. LeBron, Westbrook, Blake and Giannis would be a fun watch.

That's an overdue feature, I agree. Shame about Diallo; loved his performance in the real contest this year.

I think the biggest achievement in that impressive victory is only giving up five free throws to James Harden!

Westbrook fouled out with 6 minutes left in the fourth quarter.

I called Deonte Burton up from the G League to cover the loss of Diallo and he surprisingly did well. Roberson went nuts offensively too (by his standards) :mrgreen:

Roberson did a great job of making him take bad shots. Luckily he also didn't drive to the basket very often.

Definitely unusual to see Westbrook struggle like that, but that's foul trouble for you.

Simmons literally grabbed his 10th rebound with 2 seconds left in the game.

I also don't understand why Ayton was on Team World in real life and on Team USA in-game :eh:

His "Qualifies for Team World" attribute must be incorrect in the rosters. Awesome game from Simmons!

Has it ever happened before?

The closest I could find was Malone (32p/18r) and Stockton (20p/28a).

Just found one. Cavs vs Pacers in 2001. Jermaine O'Neal (30p/20r) and Jalen Rose (22p/20a).

Also found a crazy game where Wilt Chamberlain had 45p/46r, but two guys on the other team had 39p/24r and 35p/24r. Oh and a third guy on the opposing team had a 16p/11r/16a triple-double in the same game.

Wilt's team still won :lol:

We led by like 25 early in the second quarter, but they fought back and actually took the lead late in the fourth quarter.

Davis and Ferguson both fouling out in the fourth quarter hurt our rotations. I'm surprised we got the win in the end. My guys were so fatigued.
