  1. I think it's his gun and I think he's a dumb ass but I don't know that he traveled with the gun.
  2. We don't even know that it's his gun. Some dude might have brought it to the club for him.
  3. Booker's on his level but Booker is definitely the one who needs his ass beat a few times.
  4. I haven't watched the bucks much since Middleton came back. He looks rusty as hell. Not sure how they get through the playoffs without his scoring.
  5. Anybody mention Adrian Tchaikovsky yet? Just started the Final Architecture series and the first book is excellent. Well developed characters, slight twists that don't feel cheap, believable tensions, all in a rich, detailed space opera setting.
  6. Wade exited the game as the three ball really became a critical skill. Russ has been right in the middle of that transformation. And I don't think Russ is lazy. I think he's not practicing this particular skill because athletes of his caliber who put in the work get better. He is clearly putting in work to stay healthy and steal rebounds from teammates.
  7. Hard disagree. I found it very difficult to accept that an athlete of his caliber has hit his ceiling as an outside shooter at sub 30%. I'm guessing he puts in less than an hour per day on it, certainly less than 2. He wants to prove to everybody that he doesn't need to fix anything, that he can dominate by playing the same way he always has.
  8. Westbrook is completely uncoachable. He refused to acknowledge his deficiencies much less work hard to improve them. He's on the back side of a career that went far better than he deserved. Simmons just doesn't care about being a good basketball player. He knows his deficiencies and will work with a coach three days a week between the hours of 1pm and 1:30pm but has to spend the rest of his time getting massages.

  10. Of his 10 makes only one was at the rim. His other 9 buckets I don't think even touched the iron. This dude is unreal. Comes off a month rehabbing an injury and goes 10/15 on 14 jumpers. Just continues to be incredible on the offensive end and has picked up his defense in the last 5 years despite the injuries.
  11. I'm certainly not going to. TF you get in the mail besides pure junk?
  12. In the United States of America there is something special about whites being racist. There is something special about the history of genocide of a broad swath of indigenous peoples and the history of racially-based enslavement and dehumanization. There is something special about the enduring effects of that historical context. There is something special about existing as a white person in the United States of America with that historical context and still embracing racism and/or denying the factual historical context.
  13. I don't know that that's the right question. I think the question is, what end of the bench big on a contender is better than vet minimum Love in the playoff run? For instance, not Blake Griffin. Probably not Landale for PHX. Not Morris for the Mavs. We're talking about teams looking to shore up the margins not the core.
  14. who is this shitbag announcer? he's like galindo on nitrous or some shit.
  15. Haven't read all 67 pages so I apologize if it's been mentioned, but I am available.
  16. ESPN reporting likely Heat or Sixers. Not sure I like the fit with either or that he's a difference maker for either. Boston should cut Blake and sign him.
  17. If love gets bought out where does he end up? I'm assuming reunion with LeBron but Phoenix and Dallas both are intriguing.
  18. If you are defending James harden you should probably take a while to really evaluate yourself, the things you stand for, and what you believe in.
  19. Ben is worse than all of those because his production and reliability is light years below all of them, even Hayward. Duncan Robinson and Bertans are terrible contracts but at least they are available and possess one elite skill.
  20. Just buy him out then. He's a net negative on the court and in the locker room who is paid like a superstar.
  21. If it's true that the Lakers could have turned Westbrook into Hield and Turner but did not do it then their entire front office needs to be fired and the team sold to new owners.
  22. Just a brutal 4th quarter cold snap for the nets to end up losing a game they led almost coast to coast. Still like their team a lot right now. Clearly have some kinks to work out. Dinwiddie missed an open claxton a ton to instead force an iso that was low percentage.
