    I've seen a lot of people call LaMelo Ball "Melo" and that's just not ok.

    I am sure his old man thinks he's ready for the hof after 16 minutes and no points.

    He is not in the league because of his scoring. It's all about his court vision. He's gonna have everybody hyped to play him every night and is going to struggle I'm sure, but he's got dimes, flat out.

    Are these the same people calling for the Blazers to bring back Marcus Aldridge?

    Hot take of the day sponsored by sativa:

    The seriousness of Achilles injuries are overrated. I’ve always thought this, but watching KD just confirms it for me. He looks like KD. If you look back at guys who had Achilles injuries that were “never the same,” most of them were older dudes or played a million years ago.

    Hopefully Rodney doesn’t make this post look stupid, but I can’t bat 1.000 sheesh.

    I feel like that should be against the rules or even against the law. I realize that he wasn't on a guaranteed contract but they should have to wait to cut him until he's healthy.

    I can only assume the player's union didn't get any such language into the CBA.
