    Good news on Dwight. Bradley & Dwight are big Defensive anchors for us.
    & Making AD & McGee take all the minutes at the 5 was gonna be difficult.

    Maybe the Nets should just..not go? That’s like 5 players with Jordan, Irving, Durant, and Dinwiddie.

    Oh crap. For the first time, I am overcome with pessimism. This isn't going to work.

    I don’t think that picture from Daniels is showing the whole meal. On the menu picture, it mentions Italian grilled chicken, white fish with tomato and dill, pasta with Impossible bolognese sauce. I don’t think I see any of those things on his tray.

    Plus, I remember reading that they can hire their own chef to send in food. You KNOW LeBron and AD are going that route.

    For sure the photo was missing some of the better food. But that roll and everything else looked like airplane quality. Blech!

    Yeah, well if anybody is keen for a pickup game in Florida you should be able to get eight games in the bubble with the purged Nets roster. Would be kinda cool to go past a perfectly able (but lazy, he doesn't get out of bed for less than two superstars to play basketball and he doesn't go to bed for less than two supermodels) Kevin Durant. I will laugh if there lineup goes full expendables, Nick Young, Jeremy Lin, Michael Beasley, Jean Claude-Van Damme and Dolph Lundgren or Andre Kirilenko or Darko Milicic (whomever at this time who most credibly can say "I will break you" and look like they could bang Brigitte Nielsen).

    Did somebody just order playoff Rondo? Because ostensibly he has just arrived cash (money) on delivery.

    The biggest unknown Lakers and all their fans are going to have .... and no one’s wanting to go there because of its scary implications ..... how will this restart and unprecedented environment for the playoffs affect what Kuzma will do with his hair?

    I was wrong about the Nets, they’re clearly putting together a roster of replacements that will win them the bubble title.

    Per ESPN:

    "What I know for real was the last 10 games [before the season was suspended], we were turning into the Clippers," coach Doc Rivers said in April.

    What does "turning into the Clippers" mean other than "we're incapable of reaching the conference finals?"

    I think it means, "We were going to win the title, no question. If we don't it's because we had the interruption and whoever does win it isn't a real champion." It's basically him making excuses for his team again like the "Our starting five never lost." routine. Doc is the guy who would punch someone in the face and say the guy hit his hand with his nose
