    I don't know. Just having some fun with it. Sometimes the NBA logo will be like that on posters/basketballs/Hoops.

    If Draymond doesn't want team sitting players who don't fit the direction the team is going, there is a easy solution. Make the Contracts non guaranteed. Then instead of owners paying Love, Blake or Drummond these crazy numbers, they could cut them and let them sign somewhere else. Harden doesn't want to play in Houston, sign a shorter contract. The players can't demand these max salaries then play the victim card because the owners want to go a different direction. Look at PG, Anthony Davis, Harden forcing their way out, with no loyalty or care about the impact it has on their teams, teammates or organizations.. I am sure owners would love non guaranteed contracts or shorter contracts. The Blazers are paying two guys who are not even in the league anymore nearly 5 million this season. I am sure the team would be happy to just have those contracts off the table. I have very little sympathy for the players.

    Nothing against Zach (or even Nurk for that matter), but give Dame Bam and we'd be legit finals contenders.

    Hmm, maybe Butler will get pissed (shocker there) and want to be traded. He is great for about 1 1/2 years on each team then something goes wrong. I would take that chance though

    The East is so weak that even though they're 11-16, they're still only 3 games out of the 4th seed with 45 games to play.

    lol. After I post this, GS come from 9 down in the 4th to force overtime, and then go on to win by 8.

    Stupid Miami. They sure have collapsed coming off their great bubble run.

    Getting some love on the NBA subreddit. Three out of the top 5 posts right now on the front page. Although Curry still gets the top spot. He had a pretty crap game in terms of shooting but people still love him.

    I did not realize it was 5 wins in 7 nights. That is pretty crazy.
