I hope this isn't a harbinger of what's to come. It's not a harbinger. That's the wrong word. It is simply the way things ARE with Zion. One year at Duke - injured Summer League - played one game, injured Pre-Season - injured NBA regular season - already injured Reggie Miller talked about his weight. What Zion is doing, the way he plays, slashing and explosive moves, his limbs just are having a hard time supporting the, get this, 285 pounds he carries. Barkley was about 160 and he didn't have those explosive moves that Zion shows. Reggie Miller said Zion MUST drop twenty, thirty pounds. He believes the weight is going to cause one breakdown after another. When was Barkley 160? When he was 12, or was it when Gretzky was on the Rangers and still the best player in the NHL?

How do you count the number of times you jerk off everyday? And Gretzky can skate on to the ice right now and still be the best player in the NHL. I feel sorry for you, kid, that you never got to see The Great One in action. You only know about him from the coloring books your mommy and daddy buy for you every week. I don't need coloring books. I saw Gretzky play. He will always be the greatest NHL player on Earth.

You know of Gretzky through comic books and coloring books and some Legends NHL PlayStation 4 game that mommy bought you for Christmas. I know Gretzky because I saw him play. Sucks to be you.

Why don't you just admit you made a typo and meant 260, instead of this patheticness?

Heat suspend Dion Waiters for the opener for conduct detrimental to the team.
I thought Waiters finally grew up a couple of years ago.

Injury and maturity issues. He was a free agent a few years back and nobody would pick him up before the Heat finally signed him. He's from Philly and rumor had it he wanted to come home. Sixers showed 0 interest despite needing a shooter.

None the less we've got Lakers vs. Clippers - great way to start the season. Philly/Boston will be great (hope fans don't jump off a bridge if we drop the first game - Celts have owned us over the years) the next night. Lakers news - Kyle Kuzma to miss the 1st game and right now there's no timetable for his return

Lakers are 2 point favorites in Clippers "home" game at Staples. I want to see the Clips obliterate them. I'm talking an a$$-kickin' of epic proportions - like 134-88.

Kings reach 4 year deal with Buddy Hield
Conflicting reports on the salary $86 mil or $94 mil (apparently there's about 20 mil is incentive based).
He just came out a few days ago stating he was being low-balled by management.
Love Hield - great shooter out of Oklahoma (used to light it up in college) I wanted in the draft and he's been really impressing lately

jaylen brown gets a 4 year deal for $115 mil
i was under the impression he's not progressing as well as they'd like him too even though he's a very good player?

Raptors coverage has got to stop talking about Toronto money available for Giannis in 2021. At most I'd give it a 4% chance of happening. Even ppl at The Ringer keep mentioning it. It's absurd & will be proven annoying.
I see him either going to the west or one of Miami or Orlando.

Zion reminds too much of Bo Jackson - way too powerful & agile for his own body, exploding into injury. Bo ran out of his hip on his play, his hip could not handle Bo's explosiveness.
