No, it doesn't and it's not.

Actually pace is a statistic (hence a fact) and not an opinion.

I was talking about perception, everyone perceives things differently. In this case it seems like I am in the minority. I'm not trying to bash the game just calling out what I see.

I hear ya, I'm not agreeing or disagreeing, just pointing out that pace is different from your typical, run-of-the-mill opinion because they actually keep stats on it.

Brownie's defense looking extra sharp tonight. All that work is paying off. The guys are buying in.

Yeah, Wroten with the trip-doub and they beat Houston without MCW.

Enes Kanter and Anthony Davis going at it in Utah. Davis with 17/13, Kanter with 16/9, mid-3rd quarter.

The Jazz suck, but Gordon Heyward is also having a great season too. Having a good game tonight as well.

They desperately need a PG and a SF. If Burke turns out to be a player once healthy, and they suck enough to end up with Wiggins or Parker, they could be pretty loaded in a couple years.

Not to mention what a great fit Utah would be for Jabari.

Impressive comeback by the Jazz actually. Davis' 27 and 15 not enough.

25/10/5 for Hayward. 21 and 10 for Kanter.

Took a while for Kanter, but he is starting to show promise.

Harden and MCW out, still gotta figure Houston should beat Philly.

I hate to admit it because I want Philly to get a top 5 pick, but the Carter-Williams/Wroten/Turner combo is working. You have a versatile SF, a hybrid PG/SG and a pure PG. One of the best sharing teams out there. Now, they need to add another big scorer and another inside 4 and they should be fine. Keeping Hawes, getting Noel's defense and being able to use both of their first rounders should bode well for them next year and beyond.

Aren't the starters logging a ton of minutes? Seems like they did both games against the Cavs. I think they may hit a wall eventually. They're fun to watch, though.

Carmelo with 43 but looks like another loss for the Knicks

Knicks bench only 12 points
