Lebrons average distance out on his 7 first half attempts was 1.3 ft from the rim :shock:

I'm only midway through the 2nd quarter but just wanted to say RIP to Demare Carroll. I feel like he's been on the wrong end of guys going by him for dunks about 17 times so far.

While I don't believe Mutombo had a clue, it certainly looks bad

1.8% chance of that happening.

Talk about boring!

1.8% sheesh...I don't think there would be any way the league would have let the Lakers fall below 2nd overall imo, much less 4th or worse. I wonder what the odds were for the Magic when they got Shaq and Penny back to back. I wouldn't be surprised if there was some behind the scenes action prior to them getting the second #1 overall, not so much the first

Brandon Ingram looks like a windy day might break him in half. He needs to put on a lottt of muscle unless hes a Durant clone in which case... still. under 200 and 6'9 is fucked

Durant was between 215 and 225 coming out of Texas so absolutely spot on regarding getting bigger and stronger. Still think he'll be the odds on favorite to go first overall unless a big trade offer comes along

Word on the street is that Philly is leaning Simmons but Simmons will consider refusing to workout or do anything for them in hopes of going #2 to LAL. Can't say I blame him.

Supposedly there's also incentives for him with more shoe deal money if he goes to LA.

Its just hard to find the fit in Philly unless they are able to trade at least 1 and maybe 2 of Okafor, Noel, Embiid. Outside of Ingrams frame there's not much to dislike about him. Huge wing span, range, and ability to put it on the floor

I was reading about Brad Stevens last night. Buddy Hield #3 to Boston is so lock it's incredible.

A little behind on the DVR but Curry just scored 13 points on 4 back to back possessions in less than 1.5 minutes.

Not too shabby.

fairly certain that was done in a loving way... Durant was on fire just before that. sorta like a 'you like that bitch' type comment. but with Waiters who knows

Probably reaching here and I'm sure he may need it in the Finals, but can it almost be argued that lebron inexplicably losing his jumpshot as bad as he has has turned out to be a positive thing?
