The new tv wall setup is starting to take place. That's 250" of NBA. Probably 1/4 of what Kendra Lust has had, if that

Still can't get it out of my head.  Once I saw it, I couldn't unsee it:

I meant he's kind of an asshole

He carries himself extremely professionally off the court. He runs hot and is extremely competitive on the court. Probably part of why he's the best 20 year old in league history.

Rajon Rondo officially announced his retirement from the NBA after 16 seasons.

During an appearance on the "All the Smoke" podcast, Rondo was quick with a response when asked by host Matt Barnes if the NBA has seen the last of him.

"Absolutely," the 38-year-old point guard said. "Yeah, I'm done. I can't. I'd rather spend time with my kids."

Thanks for the update Rajon, we were all on pins and needles. Still a career with over $100M in earnings and a couple of rings aint too shabby. But this cracked me up:
 

Quote

"What a time, it was definitely something that I never took for granted when I was in the game," Rondo said. "I loved every minute of it, and I appreciate the brotherhood that I was able to share and bond and grow with over the years. I've learned so much in this game and it's made me the man who I am today. 

Quickly followed in the article by 

Quote

Rondo is scheduled to stand trial on April 25 in Jackson County, Indiana, on a charge of unlawful possession of a firearm as well as misdemeanor drug paraphernalia and marijuana charges.

His  story checks out

I think he also had another -56 or something.  Granted, that's a team effort but jeez.  I wasn't a huge fan of his in the draft.  Undersized but athletic PG who can't shoot very well.  Granted, he could get better but still....

they didn't call a tech? ok.

Yes I’d probably say that there should be a tech called for that no matter the player doing it. I am no fan of players working the officials. It’s one of the things that slowly pushed me away from watching a whole lot of NBA basketball because it’s tiresome. If a coach wants to make a case for a foul I feel that’s part of their job, but if you’re playing just focus on what you can control.

I’m still in on Scoot. 
 

West race is airtight. OKC lost in Boston tonight and Minny won. But Dallas lurking on the 4/5 line may give some incentive to stay on the 2/3?  No clue what’s gonna happen

Right because Michael Jordan never acted entitled, or berated refs, or got soft foul calls. And he definitely didn't shove Byron Russell out of the way(clearly an offensive foul) to get that game winner up. Nope.

comparing jordan to lebron is terms of  ring a whiny-ass baby about every single foul call they don’t get is…dumb. lebron is on the mount rushmore of whining, while MJ is nowhere near the conversation of biggest whiners.

MJ would get obliterated on a drive and just get up to shoot his FTs.  Never would have even considered crying like LeBron does.

What’s crazy is the 2 seed in the east still could technically end up as a play in haha

lol now a totally phantom foul on christian braun. this is such a fucking joke. 

There were lots of phantom fouls that led to Clippers FTs last night.  And the no-call on Zubac closing out on MPJ late was tough, too.

Suns whipped MIN's ass.

I didn't see them, just saw the scores. But I'll take it any way I can get it.

This Phoenix team could beat you.

Yep. No easy outs in the Western Conference this year, that's why I want the 1 seed. Playoffs gonna be fun.

Gun to my head y'all repeat.

Thank you to the TWolves and OKC for matching the Nuggets turd from last night. Game on.

OKC is hobbling right now. SGA has some nagging injury he’s trying to play through, looks like he can barely stand without making some grimacing look. JDub also hasn’t played in a week now with an ankle injury

Still some tough games with Sacramento, bucks and Mavs.

Wolves have tie breaker over Denver with one game left.

Jim This is gonna be close!!! /tonyromo
