Condolences to KAT on his impending quad tear

I thought for sure this meant he was gonna play last night and was sad to see he wasn't playing when I checked but turns out we didn't need him

Who on the Kings has enough value to be traded for?

This is a real question I don't follow most of the league very closely. I assume Haliburton is almost fully untouchable but other than him I have no clue what the Kings might want to do.

Yeah, Kings could have a few guys teams trying to make a playoff push would be interested in. Harrison Barnes would be ideal on the timberwolves but not sure what kind of deal they'd be and to make.

Also why do you need in person scouts for other NBA teams? That seems less useful than just reviewing the tape with a half dozen angles.

Obviously you need to be close to the action to tell if he has The Look

it was cool to see the wolves win a game they would have blown 10 times out of 10 in previous years last night

In particular (and for baffling reasons) the Wolves defense is far better with Dlo in the lineup that not.

I'm like 90% sure this is real and not something I made up in my head but didn't he basically say that Draymond tried to teach him a bunch of stuff in GS and he just sort of ignored it but he decided to try it out this year?

If this is true then Morey is never going to actually trade Simmons

Same thing happened to Ant last night too. Quite a night for ref yelling.

Ant actually just got two technicals at once because the refs are soft.

Oh was it two at once? I was watching but had stuff going on right then and I assumed I just missed when he got his first.

Yeah he got one for complaining and then probably called the ref a soft bitch or something and immediately got another

Many people who Stockton elbowed in the nuts have ended up dead. Why is that? I'm just asking questions.

Zogobot how many players that scored on an assist from Stockton have died and what percentage of his assists is that?

Per Finch, "Ant says he'll be straight" and helpfully clarified to the media that he meant he'll be fine.

honestly considering what I know about the media they probably needed the clarification

Right now Nikola Jokic is the MVP favorite going by past winners at least. 38 voters selected him to be the WS and/or PER leader this season but only three voters selected him to win the MVP again.

:lol:


NBA 40+ points under 21 years old (including playoffs):


Thank you Zogo that's a cool list (also neat to see all the other players on there)

Ant doesn't turn 21 until the offseason so it would be cool to see him take sole possession of second on it

Wiggins. I did not see that coming when he was acquired. Good stuff.

He always does that against teams that he feels slighted him.

I'm not usually one for moral victories but "only" losing by nine with the three point disparity in that game as high as it was makes me not feel bad about that loss at all.

I must be missing something because this play doesn't seem as impressive to me as these reactions are suggesting

I think you missed them getting blown out by 30 before the Wolves took their foot off the gas.

Easily lost in translation though.

Admittedly I phase in and out of reading the thread and oftentimes have to skip a bunch of unread posts so I don't fully understand the ballsack thing, are they just a satire account or something?
