Groans?

 

Yeah low humor for groin.

 

Involving others in your ladyboy fantasies....

 

I’m working it’s called Sabrina Carpenter. We had a show Today and Laker game tomorrow. So I’ll be there Wednesday. Shows Thursday as well. Friday and Saturday 6 shows.

but yes schedule is weird as f***. Throw in some NBA cup to.

 

Wemby is playing at the top. That’s a lot of work on that tall body. I really wonder if these coaches having these bigs on the top make them suspectable to injury. Let’s look at it. These are the guys active at the top of the key. I exclude Jokic cause his pace is slow.

but these guys play at a fast pace and usually dictate with dribble three point shooting. And they’ve had big injuries.

1. AD Anthony Davis groin now Calf. I think he’s put so much on his body. New Orleans trying to use him as a big dribbling.

2. Kristof Porzingis. He did alot at the top of the key in New York super tall 7,3”

3. Victor Wembyana. The blood clot is a freak thing. They have to be very careful with that’s. That That’s what killed Jerome Kersey

His calf that’s a lot of activity he’s not that much of a post player. They let him dribble alot. They might have to keep him operating in the post more.

another guy who tore his Achilles and he had alot of weight he was carrying was Demarcus Cousins.

these guys who are dribbling at the top of the key.

These guys Shaq Ollawjuwon Robinson operated in the post Ewing and had more longevity. Maybe we should teach these guys how to operate more out of the post that big body doing all that dribbling at the top might be too much.

We never saw Kareem trying to be magic maybe it would be better to operate more as a traditional Center.

 

Shaq is the most dominant Center. I was comparing the stat his numbers what he was brining us as a Center.

Aytons abilities. He can be a dominant Center in this league. He’s done it before. I expect the best from my guys. Nothing wrong with saying Get Shaq like numbers. Shaq always has the bigs on TNT whether it be Jokic or Ayton I’ve seen Ayton on there. He says what did you do?? I want 25 and 10 from you. Nothing less. Shaq says it. What you did was a gaslight but it’s cool. two different eras.

scouts had Tim Duncan comparisons when Ayton came out of Arizona both from Caribbean Bahamas Virgin Islands.

Ayton is doing phenomenal. He’s putting up those numbers with one guy averaging 40 and another guy averaging 26 it’s remarkable. He could clearly average 28 here if those guys weren’t playing they need the ball. So 16 is fine that’s great.

 

Got a little tea.

did anybody see this Jerry West story??? With Kawhi recruiting??? Jerry West told Kawhis boy he can’t go to the Lakers he’ll just be LeBrons Caddy. And then the guy said f*** the Lakers it’s You guys and the raptors. Kind of brings you in behind the scenes of his recruitment.

this guy was gonna split the money with Uncle Dennis who steered Kawhi to the clippers. The guy ended up suing the Clippers he wanted 1 million. It got thrown out in court. I remember this story I was laughing.

We dodged a bullet. lol Jerry West helping us when he wasn’t even helping us trying. He goes to the Clippers and torpedoes that franchise.

Can you imagine him here with AD???? Both guys getting injured.We probably don’t even bring Reaves in and don’t have the money to make the Luka trade.


But Damn it got nasty.

 

A lot

new betting scandal players from university of New Orleans were actually fixing games shaving points. This is the low of lows. He said he would just make sure to miss some shots on purpose. When they interviewed him he said he didn’t know anything about it. But now admits it. He said he had to feed his family and just had a kid. He said nobody was paying them. It was a ring of three players.

I wonder how many more guys are doing this that we just don’t know of. Point shaving used to be taboo you never heard of it. Pete Rose s***. Now with all this to the spotlight how much of it is going on??? I saw games that were suspicious.

buckle up.

 

With all this Basketball in Vegas???? Yikes.

 

DAE DAE Hunter point shaving scheme. You could see the interview on Good morning America.

 

I think it would be more common than we think. It’s also why in the playoffs, intensity changes, everyone is trying their best. No load management, no dodgy bet fixing, no taking it easy.

 

yeah, i was firmly on the "this is not normal train" with the kawhi/ascension stuff, but the prop bet fixing seems like a thing that's always been there on the fringes.

 

Hi, Cookie. Shall we meet in the GameDay thread and yell bricks tonight?

I look forward to seeing you there.

Have a great day.

 

All I need to see over these next two weeks, is Lebron moving around fluidly with no limitations. This team won 50 games with fat Luka and DFS! Now we have lean, mean Luka, Ayton, Smart and Jake. This woe is me, we'll be lucky to be a 6th seed s*** is utterly ridiculous!!!

 

LeBron James remains questionable, per the team.

Gabe Vincent has been upgraded to available tonight, per the Lakers..
I think that LeBron should wait for next game for 5 days

 

2026 NBA mock draft: Projecting all 30 first-round picks

https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id...aft-projecting-all-30-first-round-picks-teams

 

I am confused if load management works or not

 

To be fair, didn’t we have multiple major injuries to stars to end last season that aren’t back yet? Off the top of my head:

Lebron
Kyrie
Tatum
Halliburton
Porzingis
Garland
Lively
AD
DFS
FVV
Dejounte Murray
Jalen Williams
PG
Embiid
Lillard

So even though this season is the worst, it’s the fact that we started with a quarter of stars already injured from last year that makes it look so bad.

 

i've said many times there's no way that the calf strains and achilles tears can't have something to do with either or both of training practices and style of play.
