you literally think a person saying their NBA team of choice being better than the fucking 76ers is a 'schtick'

a literal thing you think.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
I do think LeBron should maybe sit a week and that the Lakers should use this win cushion they have a bit, but then again watching how little effort he could put into a game and still be effective last night makes me think maybe he can keep up this rest-while-playing strategy.

Out of nowhere on New Years my wife asked me what happened to Semih Erden. This was the one Celtics player she remembered from watching games together at bars when we were dating.

So for inquiring minds, Semih Erden is currently playing in Turkey. The closest he's come to stardom is losing to Real Madrid in the finals.

Silver was the one who got Sterling booted from the league. Stern didn't gaf-there was already tangible proof of Sterling being racist since he lost a housing discrimination lawsuit. He also put in the racist dress code and suspended Mahmoud Abdul-Rauf for not standing for the anthem. Most of the growth of the league was due to the Magic-Bird rivalry coming in to the league intact and Nike. He was extremely good at self-promotion though. And he did put in a lot of rules that helped teams not quite horribly screw themselves (Stepien rule most notably). He also was somehow able to squelch the referee controversy pretty effectively.

What Stern did with NBA tv deals is more important than Nike was for growing the league.

Weird that they win most of the games that the bench player who is 9th on the depth chart plays a lot of minutes in. Gee I wonder why these two things correlate. Quick, Dokmo, Spin up the dick graph machine!

I think he has to. He's arguably playing as well or better than any other guard in the East. Kemba has .9 more winshares and a higher PER but some of that might just be the result of 7 more games played.

Kemba's got a higher WS/48 as well though. Either is a fine choice for the starting lineup imo, they're both balling out. Kyrie is the real dweeb choice here cuz he's played a total of 11 games and his team was awful while he was playing

for the record, that would affect win shares (a counting stat, technically) but not PER (a rate stat albeit not the best one)

Yeah my bad I only meant for WS but as CBM pointed out Kemba's would still be higher as he has better win shares per 48.

My highly focused analysis was limited to the first stats I saw in basketball reference as I wasn't in the mood to scroll down.

Anyway, put Kyle and Kemba in the backcourt and stream a second game on twitch for all the 13 year olds voting Trae and Kyrie in.
