    Miss it being in Orlando. I mean, I never went while it was there, but now that I'm in Tampa with a week off it sucks.

    BTW, in "Perils of Late-1st Picks Who Drop For 'Motivation' and 'Work Ethic' Reasons"...

    I wonder how long it takes Brad Stevens to light a fire under this guy, or if he doesn't even waste his time. But damn, kid...first impressions and such...

    I love how Durant is portrayed as a loyal guy and a hero for not joining Lebron to form a super team…..

    Apparently he feels disrespected.

    And in the SA/LAL talks, Philly is getting involved but no one wants Ball.

    I am not in love with that trade at all. But, San Antonio would be lucky to get that much, given they have zero leverage.

    Why do people rate Ingram? If we're that close, let's get Kawhi. If he leaves in a year then fine, we'll blow it up. But I'm not settling for the Lakers' castoffs to help them form a fucking super team.

    If POR says yes then POR can go fuck itself.

    I really like him. On a team with good shooting and good P&R guards, he'd be unstoppable. His defense is suspect, but he's a great prospect. No way we can land him with our MLE unfortunately.
