    Ryan Hollins doing Ryan Hollins things

     

     

     

    ITs like he was auditioning to take SAS' job or something today.   He has been really good when on NBATV.   Today on Get Up and First Take he was a complete joke.

    Luka practically begs for the ball in heave situations.  And I agree with not counting them toward shooting percentages.

    I dont think it really makes enough of a difference in FG% to even be addressed.

    The New York Knickerbockers have some really terrible basketball players.

     

    That'll be $9.95, please.

    I actually like what they and Brooklyn have done with some reclamation projects.   Neither of them are gonna challenge for even the 8th seed so its good to see them get good play from guys like Mudiay, Tre Burke, and Noah Vonleh and Brooklyn getting good play from Dinwiddie, Hollis-Jefferson and Caris Levert before went down with that unfortunate injury.

    Fuck Derek Fisher, from now to eternity.

    Someone send in Matt Barnes to finish the job. Say what you will about LeBron's overreaching power and CP3's butchassedness...the league is in infinitely better hands now than it was with that piece of shit as the president of the Player's Association.

    Yeah time and time again he proves to be the piece of shit that everyone has billed him as for all these years

    and lets not neglect to mention that they are "randomly" drug testing eric reid on an almost weekly basis after blacklisting him from the league for the first part of this season due to his association with kap.

    He also has been fined 4 times for "illegal" hits

    I don't think AD knows what he wants to do..... More like, Maverick Carter wants to steer AD to LA, much like they were trying to do with Kawhi.  Doesn't matter because New Orleans will do what's in their best interests.

     

    I'm pretty sure he has a pretty good of what he wants and what team gives him the best option to accomplish that.   I'm sure his first option is to stay in NO but there has or will come a point where he determines that he cannot win there.

    Yea you probably wont. The timing about this is all weird with the media question to Lebron, then the Woj story about small market GM's being pissed off, to now a dinner with Brow.

     

    but yea, im sure there wasn't any seeds planted into Brows head on how to force his way to the Lakers, meanwhile LBJ is back at Magics office saying lets offer these 3 guys and Brow will sign here for 5 years plus KD is coming too.

     

    I mean whats the point for the rest of us to even watch until the GS dynasty is over and LBJ retires? I think LBJ is brilliant on the court. but once he starts forming his super team in LA because he's seed planting....then what the fuck?

    They share agents.   An agent that has best friends with LBJ since high school.    LBJ has known exactly what AD wants to do since last summer at least.

    when the guy says "slave" and "millionaires(not forced at all,  they chose this occupation) living a dream life" in the same sentence? Yes thats a little off putting. LeBrons the most powerful man in sports and hes starting to use his pedestal now trying to acquire Anthony Davis. Who the fuck is going to say anything? Silver? Magic? Luke Walton? You dont think the small market GM's resent LeBron and his power, especially now that hes on the most storied franchise in the league? Or would applying tampering charges on the Lakers/Lebron make it a slave like setting since LeBron isn't getting his way? 

     

    Yahoo Sources: LeBron James, Anthony Davis met for postgame dinner last night in LA with Lakers in driver’s seat to pair the stars together.

     

     

    Dudes have been going to dinner after/before games for years.     Its no different than a bunch of accountants going out for drinks during a convention.      You will never be able to stop players from talking to each other and sometimes that talk will turn to them playing together.

    I'd like to point out that I'm an idiot and confused Oubre with Otto Porter.

    Well Oubre is gonna want the same deal that Otto got and Grunfeld is dumb enough to ggive it to him so pre-emptively, you're right

    I wonder if, per se, Seattle was the "winner" of the Suns franchise, would the NBA then expand by 2 teams, placing 1 in Phoenix & one in say Kansas City..? If so #ByeSarverFelicia

    Silver is on record saying that they have no desire to expand in the near future.

    Embiid needs to shut up and play better.  There's ways to express yourself without going and complaining to the press like a 5 year old throwing a tantrum.  And the Sixers have been a better team since Butler joined them, sorry, you're sulking in the corner, big guy.  Shut up and play.  Work with the staff so maybe they can build more PNR dives with you and Butler and stagger your minutes better, get you in some early sets with you on the block.  

    I kinda think that is what last night was about.   Brown showing him tough love.    You wanna complain when we are winning?   Have a seat and we can still win without you.

  12. Embiid not happy......

    "I haven't been myself lately," Embiid told Philly.com. "I think it's mainly because of the way I've been used, which is I'm being used as a spacer, I guess, a stretch-5, which I'm only shooting [29] percent" from 3-point range.
    "But it seems like the past couple games, like with the way I play, our setup, [coach Brett Brown] always has me starting on the perimeter ... and it just really frustrates me."

    To be more specific: PG, Steph, LeBron, Butler, Kawhi, Beal, and KAT all went for 35+.  Russ had a huge triple double.  KD missed out on one by 1 assist.  Jokic wasn't far off of his own triple double in a double overtime win.

    This season is making me think about renewing my League Pass subscription.  The East is finally interesting.  And there's only one truly bad team in the West (though San Antonio is trending that direction), and that team can at least score a lot of points.  Hard to call it parity with the Warriors looming, but anybody can beat anybody right now.

    Yeah man that is why all those folks whining about the Warriors and the league being boring are ridiculous.     There are some incredible players in the league right now.    The best spread of star/superstars we have seen in quite some time.   Scoring is way up and making even games with bad teams at least exciting to watch.

    That's his 2nd 15/15/15 on the season. Thunder are looking like a legit dark-horse right now. Not sure they can get through KD but hoping for a more fun playoffs this year. 

    They are up to #2 in the west now.   Didn't they start 0-3 or 0-4?

    Man, did any of the league's stars NOT have a great game last night?  Not bad for a random Wednesday night in December.

    YES!!   Great performances by great players last night.   Even if the Freak didn't have a big game numbers wise he had some super highlights and they got the win.    Kawhi, PG, and of course Steph and LBJ with HUGE games.

    Paul George drops 47pts to bring Thunder 0.5 games behind first place in western conference.

    Russell Westbrook adds 21/17/15 against 2 (TO) to surpass Jason Kidd for 3rd place 3x/2x in history. 

     

    TOXIC!!!!

    That was a helluva 4th quarter.    The had no business down 20 to BKN in the first place but maybe they hung out too much the night before or something.    Either way great game for both PG and Russ.    They are playing together very well right now.

    you know what would be nice in a Jurassic movie?

    just once, just fucking once, can the bad guys NOT be a fucking dark-side INGen employee.     I mean jesus christ, every fucking Jurassic movie has used the same script.  Dark-Side, greedy ingen employee wants to steal the dino's and sell them for money..... and the plan fails and the dinos win

     

    that gets really repetitive and boring.

    That's the part that gets repetitive?    How about the fact that in every movie no one says, "Hey these things go loose and killed folks.   Maybe we shouldn't try this again"     Of course we would not have a movie then but I'm good with that at this point.

    Beal sure would look good at the 2 in MIL.  Brogdon shouldn't be the starter on a contender.

    I have no issues with Brogdon.  He is good for them because Bledsoe isn't a natural PG.   Gives them another combo guard who can make plays for others.     He's a good enough 3P shooter as well.  Beal would be an upgrade to a degree but he would want more of a share of the offense than Brogdon does and that could negatively effect their chemistry.

    Somehow, after all these years, I'm still pleasantly bemused by Aqua's (there are others, but he may be in a class of his own) willful ignorance.  Milwaukee leads the NBA in offensive efficiency and net rating playing for a coach that got the fucking Atlanta Hawks to 60 wins and the ECF.  They're finally doing what anybody with eyes has been screaming for 3 years: put a bunch of shooters around Giannis, and look out.  Giannis is the early season MVP, and is having his most efficient AND prolific season.

    ...but the two games that Aqua happened to look up the box score for were losses with poor shooting, so they're hacks.

    Then, when called on it, he doubles down instead of taking 5 seconds to google "giannis stats." It's fascinating to me.

    Yeah that was pretty wild.  I'm loving MIL this yr and the Freak has taken yet another big step forward.   Pretty clearly the frontrunner for MVP right now.
