I thought this was a joke, but it turns out to be true. What an a$$ clown.

That was real? no.

Heat getting Terry Rozier for Kyle Lowry and a draft pick.

Great trade for Miami.

 

[JCSunsfan]

Jordan, Russell, Kareem, Magic, Bird, Shaq, Duncan, LeBron, Curry, Hakeem.

That is 10 guys that I think he has zero case to be above, I came up with that list in about 15 seconds.

I am not sure where I'd place him, but it's closer to 20 than to 10.

Wilt?

 

[Cheesebeef]

Even if he does it once it does.

Probably.

 

[Chaplin]

I’d be so bummed if I was KAT. Get yo 62 overshadowed by a 70 spot.

KAT has more to be concerned about considering he didn't do much of anything in the 4th quarter and his team LOST to the Charlotte Hornets.

 

[TJ]

That was real? no.

Friend of mine lives there. She said the ice was no joke in PDX, especially if you live somewhere with a slope.

I don't know a lot about the situation with Ayton, but I do know you can't drive on ice. It's no joke.

Tristan Thompson has been suspended for 25 games for violating the league’s anti-drug policy.

I think the goal should be to become a star player and win a championship. The money takes care of itself.

The priority seems backwards.

 

[Raindog]

Bucks fire their head coach

A pretty significant surprise, given their record. But apparently he had several interpersonal conflicts with players and coaches in Milwaukee already this season. It sounds like it was something of an internal revolt against him.

30-13… crazy.

He in legal trouble? He get in a fight with ownership?

Something wild must’ve gone down.

DA must live in the West Hills area. It can definitely be treacherous up there when the ice/snow hits!

If someone was paying you $500,000 to participate in the game, don't you think you'd figure out a way to get there?

Why bother? He has nothing to prove.

xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media

Woof.

I fully expect him to shut himself down for the season with some sort of nondescript injury soon.

I was just about to post this.

This guy is the poster child for being delusional. He has EVERYTHING to prove. This is why he will never be a great player.
