3.) In the Warriors win over the Thunder Saturday night, Zaza Pachulia appeared to intentionally fall on Russell Westbrook.

5.) Jimmy Butler is going to miss at least 4-6 weeks after undergoing meniscus surgery. Minnesota has officially listed him as out indefinitely.

6.) Mark Cuban was recently fined by the NBA for saying it was in the best interest for the Mavs to lose. Should the league have fined Cuban for his comments?

Former team president and CEO, Terdema Ussery reportedly terrorized numerous female employees over the course of a decade.
