    Brooklyn has no bench. Period. Bench accounted for less than 10 percent of points

    The last year we had LA/Rolo/Nic/Wes and Dame, I think we won 54 games with the lowest scoring bench in the league. You definitely need help from your reserves, but I'd take a lame ass bench in exchange for their 3 superstars.

    Wasn't it great to see Cleveland beat the Big Three? And the two guys who got traded from Brooklyn led the way.

    We won 51 games their last season with us. And we lost in the first round in 5 games. Brooklyn looking for a first round exit as their ceiling?

    It was awesome. And they didn't even have Garland. Sexton is the truth. Go Cavs!

    Yeah they nearly blew a 15 point lead in the final minutes of a game against the lowly Rockets. They didn't impress me tonight. We're better than them.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Warriors look pretty damn good, even without Klay Thompson and despite Steph Curry being trash.

    Next year, if Thompson returns anywhere near his old self and with a more seasoned Wiseman, they could be a monster. Plus, they might add a pretty good pick from Minnesota...

    Watching Jazz & Pels and the Utah arena appears to have fans.

    Yep, they’re one of the teams that are allowing fans. I think there are 6.

    Top 55 protected. Is that a new thing?

    Pelicans look like trash so far. Lonzo and Bledsoe have to be the worst offensive starting backcourt. Their team defense is terrible too

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I assume you can put any protections you want on a pick, but that's pretty specific for a second-round pick.

    Still don't understand why they got rid of Jrue? Like him WAY better than Bledsoe!
