Check this out!
He swats him in the face
He seems to have anger issues
Look I get it - you were the 4th overall pick in the Draft and you've been nothing but a complete bust thus far - but that's no reason to bully Ben

Simmons took a flop there. He was hit in the face which should be a flagrant but Jackson was starting a runout down court and was looking the other way when the contact happened.

Hoping the league looks into this and fines and suspends this instigating clown before he seriously injures somebody - appears to be a loose cannon with anger problems

DraftKings Odds to Win 20221 Championship - Lakers +350 Clippers +400 Bucks +500 Warriors +600 Nets +900 Heat +900 Celtics +1200 Raptors +1600 Nuggets +2000 Mavericks +2200 Rockets +2200 Sixers +3000 Jazz +4000 Trail Blazers +5000 Pelicans + 7000 Thunder +8000 Pacers +10000 Suns +10000 Hawks +15000 Bulls +15000 Grizzlies +15000 T'Wolves +15000 Magic +20000 Wizards +20000 Kings +25000 Spurs +25000 Hornets +50000 Cavaliers +50000 Pistons +50000 Knicks +50000 Interesting. Interesting indeed.  NBA Draft is slated for Nov. 18th but could be moved. Free Agency may start late November/Early December but Silver has stated nothing is set in stone and the official start of the 2020/21 season is still up in the air. Here's what the smart bettor does.  You take a very good team lingering around 12 or so up there and you put heavy money on them.  That 12 team up there is the 76ers - with a little tinkering here and there - some wheelin' and dealin' done at the draft and during free agency - they quickly catapult from 12 to say 1 or so. Want to make an easy $3000? Put $100 down on the Sixers right now.
Jazz looking like a good bet at 40-1.

Jazz looking like a good bet at 40-1. A lot of people said Mike Conley's career was pretty much on the downswing a couple of years back - averaging 16.5 ppg right now
And I had no clue Jordan Clarkson was still around - let alone productive today - averaging 17.2 ppg

So now every time a big game is on ESPN, I have to listen to Doris Burke? Ehhhh...
Although I did find out she went to Providence College and is a Friar, so I like her a little more now.
Not really enough that I want to listen to her babble on and on when I'm trying to watch the Celtics, but such is life in modern times.
I remember a time where the only women you would see when watching sports were the ones shaking their titties and pom-poms. You know, it wasn't that bad really.....

Two weeks in a row where I'm watching halftime highlights of Nets games, and ESPN shows nothing but Harden/Durant/Kyrie plays yet when they showed the score, the Nets were losing. 😂😂😂
Gotta focus on what's important, I guess.

Checked out a bit of the Sixers/Lakers game. I'm not sold on Embiid. To me he's the kind of guy who will rock out in the regular season but in the playoffs against more formidable defenses he won't shine as bright. Decision making really looked suspect at times and I just don't see them winning a title or even the East without another top notch player to take heat off him. Simmons does not appear to be on that level to me.
For LA Lebron looked okay for his overrated self. Davis had some nice plays. But the real story was that Shroder guy. A speed demon with finesse who knows how to finish over bigger defenders and looks like he can shoot too from what I saw.

Beal 47, 6 assists, 4 steals. Wiz lose by 18 to the Pels.
10th straight loss when he scores 40.

And Ben had yet another Triple Double

Did we just beat the best team in the NBA?
I think we did folks - despite an off night from our bench and Seth having an off night
Onto the TWolves games - curious to see how Jo-Jo and KAT interact

LeBron James with one of the dirtiest plays I've ever seen in any sport
This is how you end somebody's career
Pushing somebody while they're in the air
He got a Flagrant 1 for the foul - he should have gotten an ejection
A fine and suspension should be forthcoming - but we all know it's LeBron so it won't happen
You can't stop Jo-Jo - so this is how 'The Goat' tries to stop him -

From the replay last night it looked like Lebron put both hands into his midsection area, and Gasol may have fouled him too, but it's hard to see what really made him lose his legs. Anyhow it looked like a hard fall but glad he came right back.

Daryl Morey says -
'It's Championship or bust....'
I love it
Can't wait to acquire Bradley Beal at the Trade Deadline

What player who has over 1,000 dunks in his career, has none this year, while putting up over 50% of his attempts from beyond the 3-pt arc this year, after having made only 43 3-pointers in his first 6 seasons?

50% of his shot attempts have come from beyond the arc? In his career?
Sounds like a catch and shoot spot up wing - and that's his only real value - catch and shoot
