    Ridiculous. He and Russ had a 3-1 lead on that team. They blew it. But they were right there. He is going to GSW because he can't handle the pressure of being a star. He wants to be a #2 or a #3.

    He was already the 2 though. Maybe he just likes the fit with their 1 better. 

  2. I'd probably be pissed if I were a fan of a team with a short window. Like the Clippers with an aging Paul. No impact though cheering on a team full of 19-21 year olds. Just hope they can take their game up a level like last year's game against them here. Was a loss but a damn entertaining one. Unlike most of the other 72. Which matters when you watch each game twice. Watching the Lakers beat them was one hell of a fun memorable game as well. 

    Hard to talk about Durant himself without being hypocritical. Takes courage to go knowing the heat that will come with the move. Yet you can argue it is cowardly at the same time. If winning is all that matters than it is the right move. So is winning really not all that matters? Winning under the right conditions is what matters? Hard to discuss as there is some cognitive dissonance that comes with these value clashes. 

    Too bad about Duncan. He didn't have any gas left in the tank though in the playoffs. Once you start looking like you're a slow motion clip until someone runs by full speed it is time to exit. Great career. Not winning the lottery that year for him was so disappointing. Him and Iverson would have been a strange, fascinating, mix. 

  3. Sometimes
    By My Bloody Valentine
    Close my eyes
    Feel me now
    I don't know how you could not love me now
    You will know, with her feet down to the ground
    Over there, and I want true love to grow
    You can't hide, oh no, from the way I feel
    Turn my head
    Into sound
    I don't know when I lay down on the ground
    You will find your hand down hurts to love
    Never cared, and the world turned hearts to love
    We will see, oh now, in a day or two
    You will wait
    See me go
    I don't care, when you're head turned all along
    You will wait, when I turn my eyes around
    Overhead when I hold you next to me
    Overhead, to know the way I see
    Close my eyes
    Feel me now
    I don't know, maybe you could not hurt me now
    Here alone, when I feel down too
    Over there, when I await true love for you
    You can hide, oh now, the way I do
    You can see, oh now, oh the way I do

  4. This came on during the an auto play. Funny video. I love how on bing when you search for a song title the lyrics are right there on the results page. 

    I don't want you to misunderstand me
    I just want to say what's on my mind
    No need to hit me with an attitude
    Because I haven't got the time
    I want you to know one thing is certain
    I truly love your company
    I won't take no if that's you answer
    At least, that's my philosophy
    Stay the night, there's room enough here for two
    Stay the night, I'd like to spend it with you
    Stay the night, why don't we call it a day
    No on can stop us, and nothing is in the way
    It comes from friendly conversation
    And if you still don't have a clue
    Unless there's something else you've got in mind
    We've got better things to do
    Stay the night, there's room enough here for two
    Stay the night, I'd like to spend it with you
    Stay the night, Why don't we call it a day
    No one can stop us, and nothing is in the way
    (Just to have you near me) Here by my side
    (Just to have you near me) And when I get next to your body
    (Just to have you near me) Oh
    One thing I can tell you, we're gonna be fine
    We're gonna have a very good time!
    Stay the night, there's room enough here for two
    Stay the night, I'd like to spend it with you
    Stay the night, Why don't we call it a day
    No one can stop us, and nothing is in the way
    Woooooh, woooooh, woooooh
    No one can stop us, and nothing is in the way
    What do you want to say?
    Stay the night
    Stay the night

    Me too. And that is going to be the scariest young lineup since at least when we first started realizing how good Westbrook and Harden were in OKC.

    I was so relieved to see their name at 5. One thing I hadn't seen in all the lottery odds posts and sites were the odds of no changes at all.

    So does this mean the Sixers will actually try to win games now?  Or they need another 2 or 3 years of tanking to be productive.  Not sure if Simmons the person is the guy to build your team around but the player I can see

     

    Next year is a historically great talent pool in the draft. It has been known for years it is coming as well. Go look at the picks that were traded in 2017 compared to other seasons. Teams haven't been moving them. Anyone with a bad team next year won't be complaining.

    Have the Warriors become the insufferable team to the nation where it's celebrated when they lose?  Unrelated but Klay Thompson has the most punchable face in the NBA.

    Him and David Blatt both look like Easter Island statues.

    Whats the deal with Kings and Raptors not being able to win the lottery?  

    Kings gave the Sixers the right to swap picks in a trade. So if they hit on the top pick Sixers are taking it. Same thing with the Raptors since they own the Knicks pick. Denver can swap with the Knicks. If neither team moves that is already happening. Knicks have the 7th slot and Denver 9th so Raptors would be picking 9th with the Denver's pick. The Sixers pick is high enough that if that happened the Kings would still end up in a better position. For that to happen for the Raptors both the Knicks pick and Denver pick has to jump into the top 3. The odds of that happening is very slim. Best Raptors could do is getting the 2nd pick with Denver getting the first pick. The odds of that is .0017%

    I'm enjoying the Anderson/Gallows-Styles deal because it could go any number of ways:

    -Anderson/Gallows are representing someone else (Balor?)

    And all these avenues are open at the moment.  It's fun!

    Representing the Authority seems like a reasonable guess. Not sure if that would turn out fun but it makes sense with Reigns.

  9. Chris Jericho was bordering on unprofessional with his smart veteran countering everything act in that match. Total joke Jericho won. 

    Ryder getting the IC title was a legit great moment. Knowing what that would have meant to him. 

    Who decided the Hell in the Cell match should be the worst possible shoot style match for the first half of it? Shane McMahon is no Volk Han that is for sure. 

    Triple H's horror/nazi aesthetic reached a new level of weird. Only thing I'll remember about that match will be the confetti stuck to his forehead for a portion of the match. They actually could've gone home on somewhat of a high note, crowd reaction wise, had they gone home after Stephanie was speared. 

    So bizarre how the things the crowd enjoyed most were things unannounced. Guess they think the show will sell itself. I wouldn't bank on that forever. 

    Oh well at least RAW should be a fun train wreck. 

     

  10. Russ dropped a 25-11-20 line tonight!!  That's a new career high in assists.

     

    What's with all these triple doubles this year?  I've come to expect it from Russ, Draymond and Rondo in the right match ups, but yikes they are coming from everywhere.  This has to be some sort of modern NBA record for trip dubs in a season.

    50 this year. There were 78 in 88-89. There were a lot in a 4 year stretch. 61 in 89-90, 78 in 88-89, 53 in 87-88, 62 in 86-87. The 50 this year is the first time there has been 50 or more since 96-97. 

     

    Since 83-84 there have been only 7 triple doubles with 10 steals. None since 86. There have been 64 with 10 blocks. 

  11. He's averaging 2.1 a game so far, which would be his lowest since his rookie year when he averaged 1.3 in just about 18 minutes a night.

    Partially it's because he plays away from the basket more, guarding stretch 4's instead of being in the paint.

    Yeah he defends 15.3 shots per game and only 6.6 are at the rim. His numbers at the rim are still good. Not great but good. Adams numbers are pretty decent too. They over rotate. Ridiculous how many times Adams ends up on a guard on the perimeter. Adams defends 5.3 shots per game from 6 feet and in. 5.0 per game from 15 feet or greater. Ibaka is at 6.6, 6.4. 

  12. Anyone listened to Russo on the latest show?

    It was exactly what you would expect from Russo. It is bizarre though since he is dead on about the problems with the product. Every time I'm like how are his solutions so bad when he seems to have a good read on the issues. I've never listened to him all that closely so I probably just missed this in the past. He said on the show growing up he loved Chief Jay Strongbow and suddenly everything made sense. To be fair though diagnosing the current issues with the product is like diagnosing a cut jugular vein.
