  1. Watching nets sixers and Brooklyn might have won the trade deadline. They have to figure out who is going to be that guy to get a bucket at the end of the game, but they are deeper, much better on defense, and able to play with more pace in offense. Dark horse for a deep playoff run this year. Priority one is getting Ben Simmons off the team in the summer. Ship him to Detroit or San Antonio for a bag of chips just to clear cap space. The unit of bridges, Johnson, dinwiddie, claxton, and Harris is tough. Bring in dfs, Thomas, and yuta off the bench and the second unit is going to be tough as well.
  2. If Portland legitimately tried to hide the extent of Payton's injury they've got to be sanctioned by the league, right?
  3. My guess is the homos. And I think it's the "no homo" that implies being gay is something to be avoided or shamed that is (mildly) offensive. Fine does seem harsh though. It's the same that Anthony Edwards got and what he said was far more offensive.
  4. I had no problem with Jordan's speech. Totally authentic. I have no desire to hang out with MJ but this is a guy who had to destroy a high school kid at his camp for talking shit when he was the undisputed greatest player in the world.
  5. No they didn't. They had a roster with a bunch of warts that KD covered up. They were barely a playoff team without him.
  6. Oh, I didn't realize you were literally incapable of understanding. Carry on.
  7. LOL. Nah man, 20 years in a couple months. Kids are old enough now that fucking with them is not really an issue anymore but otherwise my post is as true now as ever.
  8. I know it's jokes on this thread mostly, but I'm always a little surprised how many people seem to be trying to win their marriage. Maybe I'm just a beta snowflake but I have found the only way I win is to actively try to lose. Take the kids, do the laundry, make dinner, do the dishes --> she does a Mia Khalifa impression. Comment on her driving/parking, inquire about spending habits, or complain about dealing with the kids --> suddenly I'm Fred Waterford.

    Gym Pet Peeves

    Is this a joke about cyclists deserving to get run over or is there some stigma attached to stationary bikes in the gym that I'm not aware of?
  10. That's a dumb post and you should feel bad for making it. The ten starters are not the ten best players b/c they are restricted by conference affiliation and position. C'mon man.
  11. Here's the thing about MJ that will make him forever untouchable in my mind -- he would just straight up take over completely on both sides of the court and you just knew it was over. Bron is great and probably the better basketball player, but if I need one bucket to win a game I'm subbing him out for MJ 100% of the time. Bron's greatness over time is rivalled only by Kareem, so he definitely tops MJ there.
  12. Fun to watch but awful to look at. They have the biggest collection of carnie looking people in the league. I don't know if they looked like that before they got to OKC or if that's just what OK does to you.
  13. Have you found the name of the contractor she's banging?
  14. Dame? I mean I'm much higher on Dame than most around here but that's crazy talk to just him over anyone you listed other than SGA, Young or brown.
  15. Cancer sure but washed? Tell me you don't watch much basketball without telling me you don't watch much basketball.
  16. How in the ever loving fuck do people look at the trio of Kyrie, Harden, and KD and conclude the KD is the problem? TF is wrong with y'all? When KD and Kyrie actually played together the Nets were exactly as good as you would think they could be, even when the next best player on the floor is a coin flip between Seth Curry and Nic Claxton. And James Harden is worse than Kawhi for how he did the Nets b/c he had no grounds for beef with the team at all, he had no injury beyond the self inflicted kind, and he still fucked them. Meanwhile KD shows up to work, dominates when he's healthy, and on the whole stays quiet about the most dysfunctionally managed team in the history of sport. I hope the Nets trade KD to Portland for something like Simons, Nurkic, Winslow, and GBIII with a couple of picks like 2025 1st, 2028 1st, and a 2024 2nd.
  17. So Rivers is the clear aggressor, coming into the bench area well beyond the flow of the game and getting into Bamba's face but Bamba gets an extra game off? How's that make sense?
  18. I guess they're getting the corpse of Markieff Morris too. He's a warm-ish body I guess.
  19. Serious question, assuming it was ever possible that Brunson would have stuck around for somewhere in the neighborhood of $30M/yr, would the Mavs have been more competitive this post-season than they will be with Kyrie but no DFS or Dinwiddie? They've got zero answers on defense and now basically no one to command the second unit. Kidd has to find a way to have Luka or Kyrie on the floor almost every minute.
  20. Your point stands, but let's be optimists and consider Luka will play several playoff games per year, so maybe 90 possible games. He'd ONLY need to average 33 for 10 years without missing a game in that scenario.
  21. You're not going to bait me into defending the guy.
  22. Proposed trade: Nets send Kyrie to PHX and get CP3 and Crowder in return. Salaries match and both teams address needs. PHX needs more scoring punch when Booker is out and getting a little younger extends their window with Booker as a focal point. Nets get a playmaker who matches KD's timeline and a 3 and D guy who is hopefully tanned rested and ready. Both get rid of malcontent locker room cancers.
  23. Dallas much better off trying to get Jae Crowder for cheap from the Suns. And I hate to say that b/c fuck Jae Crowder, but he fits their needs and timeline, and is a realistic get.
