:25 mark

Beat me to it

The gif of it:

25+ points per 36
11 rebounds per 36
3 blocks per 36


In the history of the NBA, the only player to put up these numbers:

Prime Patrick Ewing
Prime Kareem
Prime David Robinson
Rookie Joel Embiid

He's must watch TV the random times the 76ers are on. Can't wait til Ben Simmons debuts.

Lebron yesterday with a profanity laced commentary on how bad CLE needs another playmaker. We never see him act like that, constantly cursing in an interview like he did.

Then today there's an ESPN report that the Cavs rejected a Melo for Kevin Love trade.

Juicy!!!!



My first thought was that I prefer Kevin Love. But Love is really just mostly a spot up shooter at this point offensively, and CLE has plenty of that. I'm not sure if this is meaningful at all, but Melo thrives on the US Olympic team as the 3rd or 4th option, so I wonder if that would translate to the NBA where he'd hypothetically be a 3rd option with CLE.

Gotta side with Rondo there

[wdoupis]

I have been telling everyone for years Butler is such an attention seeking jackass. Noah is literally a top 5 teammate and he told everyone Jimmy destroyed the locker room last year. Not Rose or anyone else. I am a die hard Bulls fan all my life and I just can not root for this team as long as he is on it.

And we fired an elite coach so Gar/Pax could put their puppet Hoiberg in there and he has been nothing short of abysmal.

He may have some valid points, but we don't know if they're all true.'

I do find it funny though that he says this by doing the same thing he's railing against, going public with it and not talking to his teammates.

And the thing about getting their points is also ironic since for about 5-10 years now, it's been pretty well known that Rondo will do anything on a play to try and get an assist attempt, even to the detriment of the play.

And while we're at it, he also either quit on the Mavs in the playoffs, or better yet, I think the vets just kinda "kicked him off the team" if you will.


Maybe just not the right messenger.

Puppet is a good term, cause he's certainly not leading the team or in charge of anything.

Definitely not in charge of anything. This is such a hard team to cheer for. The only player who does not make you want to punch them in the face is Taj Gibson and Robin Lopez.

I actually would think NBA far and away in the lead but maybe am just focusing on the drama queens part

MLB pitchers throw balls at dude's heads because another guy stare at a home run for 1 second too long.

They're right in the conversation with the nba.

Saw this a couple of days ago.

That's going deeeeeep inside the numbers to discount the Westbrook triple double. Lot of good points in there.
