    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.

    they rely heavily on draymond as a defacto pg. that's why when he's out, they're generally dog****. he's known as a defender, but he's a super heady offensive player despite not being extremely skilled as a scorer. gs got away with having guys like this (bogut, iggy, etc.) for years because they had such incredible shooting from the guard spots, hence the heavy investment there. but it's a house of cards, which is why they look like world-beaters at full strength and are one of the league's worst teams if either curry or green is out.

    Good for him, he didn’t look like an NBA player here, but he stuck with it and made it

    :Laugh: ….poor Wade man. What an ugly face they gave him. Some of these sculptors are full of themselves it seems with what they come up with that supposedly is going to be “edgy” or whatever. Like the dude that hung all that s*** off Elgin’s arm going up for shot … like he was creating “motion blur” or something. What a fail.

    Denver is losing at Toronto at half time by 8.
    Westbrook is definitely improving
    He scored already 3 points and only -4
    Update: it's -15
    Murray sucks and Jokic just quit:Laugh:

    same with pippen jr. didn't seem like he had any sort of nba future from what we saw during his time with the lakers g-league team, but he's doing great in memphis

    Cleveland is on fire and has an average margin of victory of nearly 17 points. I'm guessing they smoke us unless we have an amazing night.

    We already said it earlier in this thread, and it's also making the meme rounds now:
