    Mostly HOT! Dame has gotten off to slow starts before. He was smooth against the Lakers. His cold stretches aren't long, but he's a player who goes nuclear for long stretches.

    And I've watched every Hornets and Pels games as well. They both suck, but are entertaining. Just like your sister.

    Dame plays exactly as well as you would think a Weber State grad would!

    Never underestimate the power of having the lights off during sexy time.

    He does, but that’s a 2-year injury with one year out and the next at less than 100%. Paul George and Gordon Hayward both needed a full season on the court to get back to normal, and they aren’t 7’ tall and 275 lbs.

    Hard to blame the guy when he’s back so soon after a catastrophic injury. He’ll get better.

    I’m betting that’s something Mrs. HCP demands in your case.

    Paul George was averaging 23 - 7 - 4 a year after his injury. Nurkic was injured on march 27, 2019. That's 20 months ago. Nurk averaged 18 - 10 - 4 in the bubble, so what's he's doing right now doesn't seem to have much to do with an injury he had nearly 2o months ago

    You're better than this. It's impossible to compare athletes and injuries. Even if they are the same size. Different bodies heal differently...... After seeing what Nurk did in the bubble, I'm sure he'll turn it around. What is he even averaging?

    wut?

    somebody else compared the injuries...I added some context, including the context that Nurk's injury occured 20 months ago and he played a hell of a lot better in the bubble than he is right now

    ...another possible explanation:

    Thu, 1/7, POR vs MIN = Anthony Edwards

    ...no, he doesn't need to address him -- it has to be about Anthony Edwards when the T-wolves come to town next week :dunno:
