    Holding that ticket shouldn't be as heart-breaking as the Suns championship ticket I had last year.

    Olshey is still bargaining to get Simmons. As CJ and possibly Ant are out, they needed another shooter to put around Simmons.

    Luckily, I hedged it heading into Game 7 of the Bucks/Nets series by getting a ticket on both of them as well. The Suns payout was going to be much better, but overall I came out in the plus.

    He hit every point we've all been making for years. It's not rocket physics. It's basketball.

    I watched the entire game. Not one syllable of basketball analysis. What is her job exactly?

    I get it. She does the same thing all season. And she can't do a single game without blowing the Lakers.

    Brown: Yes.
    Beasley: No. Just no.
    Faried: I wouldn't.
    Mudiay: I might, depending on how the roster shakes out.
    King: Intrigued.
    Elleby: If CJE wasn't already on the team, and Summer League was his tryout, there is a ZERO percent chance he would get any NBA contract, anywhere.

    Interesting. I think in real games she does a great job as an analyst. I’ll take her over Mark Jackson, Reggie, cwebb, and about a dozen others

    Coach always says, "if you're unconscious, keep shooting."

    pay no mind to elleby's struggles. i wanted to cut both pat and layman a week before training camp in their THIRD years based on summer league performances. give CJ2 some time.

    also, i kinda like the idea of beasley as a backup PF. his career numbers are more than decent for that role. 12/5 on 47% from the field, 35% from 3, and 16 PER through 600+ games. went through hell the last few yrs with his mom passing away (people around the league were legit worried for his well being, especially with the stuff he was posting on social at the time) and getting cut because lebron/magic didn't know how to construct rosters, etc etc. really great to see him back focused now.

    i think he can play for 15 mpg behind Roco, quite serviceably.
