You can HEAR the crowd shouting "noooooo!" as he shoots.

Just ****ing release the guy and be done with it. He ain't gonna hit anything but he's not gonna stop shooting it. He can't play defense and won't pass. The only way to succeed with him on the floor is to simply ice him out and play 4 on 5.

This is just amazing.

Like is Westbrook trying to get benched/released here? You have to at least consider the possibility after this.

Dammit, breaking my own rule here.

Boy I sure wish the Timberwolves could have generated this much conversation when they were terrible.

The Lakers are bad. So why the **** are people talking about them?

Nobody gave a shit about the Timberwolves because they reside in the middle of Bum**** USA and had literally nothing interesting about them. It's hilarious to shit on LeBron, it's hilarious to shit on the pieces he's surrounded himself with (especially Westbrick and Street Clothes) and it's hilarious to shit on the Lakers in general.

I mean, I guess we can retroactively go back and laugh at the fact Jimmy Butler was right about pretty much every single aspect of that franchise and why he ****ed right off when he did.

dirk digler 10-25-2022 07:29 AM

After 3-4 games I am revising my pick about the Nets. They won't get to the Finals and maybe even win a playoff series if they don't get a rebounding big man.

That was like 5 seasons ago, dude. Do you also want to talk about Dirk Nowitzki?

That's the only interesting thing about your franchise in recent history. I was just answering your question about why no one talks about them.

The wolves were benignly and forgettably bad.

This Lakers team is aggressively and caustically terrible.

The former is just doing a poor job of trying to win. The latter is doing a spectacular job of trying to lose.

So we can go ahead and write off Zion permanently, yeah? Can't even play a solid 5 games worth of basketball without ****ing up his back and hip.

Too bad Phoenix choked and we couldn't have gotten this series in a West Finals last year. Klay has already lost his mind and gotten ejected.

Pretty hard to win in the playoffs if you don't guard at all. The Nets don't.

Pelicans win without Zion, Ingram, and Jones. All the young guys stepped up and played really well. Willie Green getting it done. Again.

BWillie 10-25-2022 10:40 PM

Has anyone ever been to the United Center? Going to Chicago in a couple weeks and wondering if I should waste my time watching them play Toronto, New Orleans or Denver. I've ruled out Denver because I don't want to watch Jokic play basketball.

Ingram would quite possibly be the most underrated player in basketball if he could figure out his 3-point shooting. Not sure what happened last year, but expect him to shoot it much better this year. He's a really poor man's KD.
