Brian Fowler Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 What's basketball look like? Cause it damn sure ain't what's happening in The D. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 Kyrie also didn't travel with the Nets to Memphis so if the "didn't want to play thing" is accurate - it is bigger than just wanting to take a night off For the record - the team is saying its a "private matter" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched every game. You ain't wrong. Blake is shot. Flat out. They're a better team without him on the floor. There are some positives. Josh Jackson and Saddiq Bey are total steals, and Jerami Grant betting on himself is paying off. Svi is playing good defense and is rounding out offensively. When the young and new guys are on the court, they're actually fun to watch. They're still going to lose a lot, but they don't make it easy. As for D-Rose, when he's on, it's what you expect out of him, but when he's not...ehhh. When he's not holding onto the ball too long, he's turning it over. Unfortunately, the kids are gonna have to force the organizations hand to make them move on from Blake and Rose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiji Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) Up 18, do this, and lose by double digits. Solid. "I don't even want to describe that." Yooouuuuu damn right you don't. Steph went into based god mode there during that comeback/collapse. This season is wide open for the taking it feels like. Absolute chaos and I love it so much.

Zimbra Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 Sixers are going to play today despite only having 7 players that can play. Mike Scott will suit up despite being injured and not able to go. Doc Rivers is clearly pissed. Pretty much the first real test of the NBA this season and they shit the bed with the lights on.

Zimbra Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 LaMelo Ball is the youngest player in NBA history to notch a triple double. He takes the record from Markelle Fultz who took the record from Lonzo Ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
