No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.

I yelled "Catalonia is a part of Spain!!!" at Pau during a free throw at the Nuggets game the other day. He missed it, but then I read online that he's anti-secession so I guess he's just a shook trick

Try it on Rubio next

I feel like this probably seriously affected Brooklyn's record

To be fair after watching a ton of the Nets this year the reason they're losing those games is because their defense blows and Dinwiddie isn't getting calls on deep lovely 3's that refs are super afraid to call to decide a game (unless you're famous and even then).

Those numbers are only for the last 2 minutes of close games, and so are biased against good teams that tend to play more blowouts. I'm sure LeBron gets a billion missed calls during the rest of the game, just like every other physical player.

Wouldn't this logic also make it biased against bad teams as they should be the ones getting blown out by the good teams?

Yes , but in the other way, since bad teams tend to lack good players who tend to draw fouls.

I know it's mostly from them facing worse players, but some games I feel our bench could beat most under .500 teams by themselves.

LEZZZZZZZZZBIAN CRUSH

Some hipster-type dude with one of those turn-of-the-century fisticuffs mustaches brought in an official leather Spalding game ball to the gym last night and everybody blanched when somebody tossed it to the top of the key.

"Anybody else have a ball?"

Why does everyone insist on playing with those garbage Evolution balls. They feel like a sticky, wet turd and I can't hit poo poo with them. I grabbed that leather ball and it just stuck to my hand - but it's weird. The Evolution sticks too but it sticks TOO much. Just too soft I think. It was a little bit overly stiff but drat did it feel better than my ABA ball.

(Why can't they make the ABA replica ball with game ball leather)

Anyway that sort of english doesn't work with those soft-rear end Evolution (literal) pieces of luke cold poo poo. They're just awful

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.

The fact that he just calls him "Metta World" as a first name is really great.

"..The high ground"
Lebron ducks his shoulder all the time into people on fast breaks and somehow they get called for fouling his shoulder.

He also doesn't get called for defensive fouls very often.

I’m the guy that brings the legit leather ball to the court but I don’t have a cool hipster beard / moustache combo. My ball is also always rejected for the TF-1000.

Edit - to be fair the TF-1000 is what’s used in high school here so everyone is used to it.

Thats a nice Game 7 you have there. Would be a shame if somebody nailed it down.
I just watched an Eric Gordon versus Marcus Morris shootout and it was amazing.

Edit: as a Houston resident it’s my duty to apologize for that kid screeching behind the announcers.
