Only NBA player currently with 20 ppg, 10 rpg, and 2 bpg. Anthony Davis. His ipg is rising. Since he played 20 minutes while only getting 1 board, now there's no one at 20/10. ipg = injuries per game Lakers fans have been killing him (and Russ) Numerous clamoring for an AD or Russ for Ben swap

Shams Bomb -
Mario Chalmers - Denver's G League Team
I thought that dude was dead
This is going to be fun - we're going to be seeing all of these old guys come out of the woodwork and get a shot since COVID is wreaking havoc on teams rosters
Wonder if we see Vin Baker and Michael Finley

*YAWN* To hell with this guy. Extremely talented but clearly has some mental issues. I guess I shouldn't say "To hell" with him if he does, but if he doesn't, yeah to hell with him. I think he's good for league like T.O. was good for the NFL Like John Rocker was good for baseball You need your goofballs - sparks interest and conversation Jon Rocker was never "good for baseball", unless you were a prejudice filled racist. |

Fascist And conformist huh?. I care about the health and wellbeing of my fellow man, neighbor and community Getting a needle and wearing a mask isn't a big deal to people like me - you know somebody who isn't selfish and only cares about themselves and whines and cries about losing their rights and freedoms and 'My Body My Choice'. I'd have more respect for Anti-Maskers and Anti-Vaxxers if they just came out and said, 'I don't care about you or anybody else in life. I only care about myself. And wearing a mask is too much of an inconvenience for me and I'm deathly afraid of needles'. Wearing a mask is such a hassle isn't it? And the vaccines? Well - they're approved by the FDA now What's the excuse now? Know what it is? You're a selfish baby who couldn't care less about anybody but yourself. My hands way too weak to put the mask on and needles remind me of requiem for a dream and the PTSD starts again. |

How the hell am I the only one saying the Cavs are going to win it all this year? Do you people seriously not see what this team is doing?!?!
Best team in the East by far and they're only going to get better as the season goes on. Cavs/Warriors: Round 5. Cavs in 6.

Cavs are winning without him. Imagine how far this team’ll go with him. Or really how many championships they’ll win with him…

Trending after the undermanned Sixers went up to Boston to beat the Celtics -
'Joel Embiid had 40 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 blocks in a game for the 3rd time in his career. Only player with more such games since blocks became official in 1973-74? Kareem Abdul-Jabbar with 4'
Skip Bayless -
'Embiid >>>>>> JOKER'
'If you just watched the Sixers rally past the Celtics at Boston, you know what I know: Joel Embiid is the best big man in basketball. 41/10/5 w 4 blocks. So clutch. Such a great FT shooter. Just DOMINATES. Sorry, MVP.'
Check this dagger out by this Generational Unicorn -

Warriors on the road again for Christmas.
Draymond Green:
"I have a 7-year-old, a 5-year-old and a 1-year-old. I want to spend some time at home with my kids, too. We're not playing against a defending champion. If we're playing against a defending champion, you understand, but we're not. And it's a bit frustrating to have to go on the road a second year in a row. So now I [missed] my daughter's first Christmas, and I'll miss her second one. It's kind of fucked up. But it's the reality. That's what we're faced with.
"You have to go do your job, but we're human beings, too. So like I said, I missed her first one and I'll miss her second one. I can't explain that to her. So it sucks. We're not robots, we're not machines. We're actual human beings with actual feelings, with actual families."

I can't explain that to her. So it sucks. We're not robots, we're not machines. We're actual human beings with actual feelings, with actual families." A agree it is a little shitty. But what can you do? Millions of Americans watch football and basketball on holidays. These athletes are in the position financially that they can have Thanksgiving or Christmas any day that week. And their job allows them to give anything and everything to their family. 10s of millions of other Americans both have to work and don't have that luxury, so the plight of the NBA player is not high on my list of people I feel bad for. I will say, however, that they should change it up. If you were in the road last year, you should be home this year. Now that won't fix everything, and there will be people on new teams that go on the road multiple years in a row. But that kind of scheduling makes nothing but sense. |
