    I need an update from @Boob-No-More . Please show us how Westbrook lost OKC the game against Sacramento. It's such a gift!

    FYI, I watched most of the game... and watched how Westbrook kept shooting threes when he was cold, and had two turnovers to end the first half... But it's so much fun!

    I got up to #2 thinking the Blazers were going to be ignored again. I was hoping to see Dame's dunk against the L*kers. I was a bit surprised to see what they chose, but nice to see a Blazer uniform in that #1 spot. Go Blazers!

    I am just going to go back to saying it is all an online persona. If you met him in person then he is one of the nicest dudes ever. I only met him once and only for a second though.

    Nice!! Aminu is still Aminu, but his handles look slightly improved and almost to acceptable status now.

    I hear ya and have heard it alot. But that's on him. Ive made the attempts to put things to rest in the past and was mocked.

    But lets let it rest in here and not rob this thread. :)

    Id have picked the Nik drive and dish to Collins for the Dunk. Two good passes, great player movement, ended with a nice dunk!

    I'm really liking Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on the Clippers. He's going to be a great defender in this league and I love how his last name is so long it almost forms a circle on his jersey LOL.

    Aminu’s dunk was the dunk of the game for sure

    OKC loses to Sacramento by 11 in OKC. First game for Brick, almost triple double, -13. OKC falls to 0-3.

    538 still has OKC a 93% chance to make playoffs. Portland, 43%, LAL 76%.

    It's a great day when OKC and the L*kers are both winless.

    Oh brother, he doesn’t need any help finding a reason to hate on Westbrook.

    HCP, you are the funniest guy here. But to become the perfect poster, you need to praise Ed Davis all the time. Just to piss off all the guys who take themselves seriously.

    I know we will miss Ed, an it will show some nights. That said, I’m liking what I’m seeing out of Zach.

    That hernangomez block at the end of the game was amazing. Love seeing the warriors lose on the road and the bandwagon fans that paid 10x the ticket price to see what the media has forcefed them to like walk out sad.

    LOVE IT.

    Looks like Denver might finally be for real. Can't believe that Jokic was a second round pick. It just doesn't seem possible.

    They were for real last year until Millsap got hurt for like 90% of the remaining season.

    Well I know a lot of people have been writing them off for so long.... But any way, they beat the Warriors. And despite some terrible late free throw shooting. Let's hope we catch them on an off day.
