    My mom is 6ft under so I hope you're not claustrophobic! I doubt she gets much reception down there if any...maybe one of those wind up am radios?

    Honestly, if the refs are calling the game without letting Holiday hold and be physical then his defense is a bit overrated (I think you can say that about most of the league). Dame should be able to get by just about anyone if the rules are being enforced correctly.

    I disagree. Holiday is a top 5 OTB defender IMO.

    This is crazy talk.

    We need to put Anthony Davis in as many pick and rolls as possible.
    That way Anthony Davis will be too tired in the 4th to make plays.
    Terry Stotts came up with this genius game plan in the playoffs, and it must continue to be employed this season.
    He gets paid the big bucks to come up with stuff like this.

    He needs an editor so the team does not take 3 weeks off instead of a long 3 day vacation and I am only available an hour a day in the afternoons and I am not cheap. ;)

    Harkless is out again. At what point do they just shut him down for good and get his knee fixed? How is this normal? If they do it now they could get him back later on in the season. Unless of course we’re talking about something way more serious..

    Dear Mr. Aminu,
    One of the reasons you're so good is your help defense ability. Tonight, however, we
    need you to forget everything you've learned about that. Just stay with Mirotic.

    Sincerely, Blazer Fans

    I saw this somewhere on the internet and couldn’t stop laughing. I mean that’s 100% Aminu.

    The FUCK is going on with him?! He's getting ruled out a day before... not even a game time decision.

    And why is the team so obsessed with keeping the fans in the dark about it?

    Leonard, Crabbe, over-paying for ET, and now Hark.

    NO is now officially 0-for-2016.
