As long as everyone is wearing a mask and being socially distant, that's chill. Nobody wearing a mask at Pierce's.

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.

If you consider that Draymond is responsible for making KD leave, he is the net least valuable player in nba history.

The number of people in other places who say that Wiseman is still the right pick without offering any kind of qualifiers or explanations is amusing. Not Bagley at #2 amusing but still amusing.

What's more detrimental to an NBA offense? Draymond standing out at the perimeter with noone within 20 feet of him because he can't shoot or do floaters anymore, or rookie-year Collin Sexton before the all star break?

Yep, centers are basically never good in their rookie year. Year three is when they start to show. defense at the five is vital to the proper functioning of a team and there's a lot of geometry and footwork to learn. Wiseman didn't even play a college year, this is his first year of real basketball.

I'm sure he should still have some trade value, and he's not on their timeline in any way

This is filler, but it's interesting, the longest tenured player in the NBA for his current team is Steph curry, if you don't count player coach udonis haslem. He's been on the warriors since 2009, that's crazy. Number two is klay, three is patch mills, four is Brad Beal.

“They came to me and said they were going to retire my jersey, do this and do that. And I’m like, ‘Nah, you can’t buy me that easy. If you retire the jersey, that benefit you, that ain’t benefitting me.’

“If you want to put it outside with the flag, and people don’t have to pay to come in and see it … let them drive past and see it. Let it be a tourist spot.”

it'd be cool to see a list like this put together from the vantage point of 10 years ago or so. I guess it'd mostly just be franchise guys like kobe, dirk, the horny unemployed shorts-pooping man, and udonis haslam at the top

i am hugely patient on wiseman. the biggest concern i have isnt footwork or defensive iq, its psychological stability. too many expectations. too much criticism and too many self-defeating thoughts destroy more potential in people before they can actualize.

support wiseman and chill on him. the warriors are gonna be rear end this year and next, barring some wild trades, so there isnt that much at stake right now.

What’s a good emoji for being excited about getting back into challenging and creatively fulfilling work but also bummed about the prospect of having to manage people and customers and stress? At least it’s not a full on bar, it’s a “distillery”/tasting room/grubbery adjacent to the brewery, and I’ll have somewhat normal people hours, and got my second dose last week
