    “Street Clothes”

    Seriously though that sucks. They were leading the league in scoring first couple games. He didn’t even step on a foot. Must have just planted it wrong at an angle with a lot of force to roll it with the braces on.

    was wondering how gs lost at home to the clips.

    weird night all over, with philly (still sans george and embiid) beating indy on the road, the bucks losing to brooklyn (home opener, though), and portland killing new orleans.

    the only game that went as expected was okc thrashing atlanta.

    Yeah, if Steph is out too long, GS is toast. They're very deep, but after Steph they don't have much high end talent. I was optimistic on Steph + depth being good in the regular season but so-so in the post-season, but now, depending on the # of games he misses, they could struggle to make the play-in again. Same for New Orleans w D. Murray being out for a while. And Clips w Kawhi being out for who knows how long. Depending on how injuries shake out, I could see something like:

    1. OKC
    2. Lakers
    3. Dallas
    4. Minnesota
    5. Denver (higher if they come to their senses and cut Westbrook)
    6. Phoenix
    7. Sacramento
    8. Golden State
    9. Clippers
    10. Memphis
    11. New Orleans
    12. Houston
    13. San Antonio
    14. Utah
    15. Portland

    Why not get the person responsible for Kobe’s statues? Lazy on the Heat’s part. Looks like Laurence Fishburne.

    Once again, thanks Magic!

    As I watch Zubac develop into a top 10 Center.

    the eyes are too close together. Not a great likeness. To spend that much and get that, it must be disappointing. Are they hiring just within the family or inner circle like the Lakers or something?

    Muscala. That's all we got. And a rental at that.

    Balmer needs to start bragging about ripping Magic off and how their whole franchise talks about laughing over this still.

    And then there were only 4 undefeated teams left, and we were one of them.

    Cleveland
    Boston
    OKC
    LAL

    Not bad company

    Trading Zubac did not feel right at all. Letting Lopez and Huff walk was bad too.

    Letting Huff walk was Rob's doing though.

    The last coaching regime did/would not want players to develop. On them too.

    For all of the Warriors depth...they have no backup point guards. But they bring SIX shooting guards off the bench. When Steph sits, they mainly use Podz, sometimes Melton or Moody. Weird. They love small guards even more than Rob.
