    Top 3 best regular season player ever.

    Too bad he will never win a ring because of himself. Unless he chases. Which those don't count. See: Durant. :)

    They’re tanking. Lowry was healthy and didn’t play the big game against Washington. They’ve been away from all season. Play-in isn’t worth it this year. Also they lost Ibaka and Gasol.

    Man Curry is insane. How he keeps doing this game after game? This guy is a legend.

    Watching D-Rose tear up the Clippers from mid-range today makes me wonder whether CJ and his superior mid- range game might be a key to beating the Clips in the playoffs.

    why did the suns choose josh Jackson
    The magic choose Isaac
    Bulls markaanen
    Mavs D Smith Jr
    knicks frank the tank
    Cha monk
    Pistons kennard

    A bunch of butchered picks including other PF/C

    And I remembering thinking Z Co was a dumb pick but this narrative is pretty lame most people wanted John Collins and not Adebayo anyway.

    talk about hindsight lol

    True. They're also nowhere near as offensively potent overall.

    Agreed. I'm just poking fun at him since he loves to ask why Olshey chose Zach over Bam on a constant basis.

    I think he would’ve won rings if 2012 OKC Finals team had stayed together. Even without Harden, they nearly got there against 73-9 Warriors. He hasn’t had a good enough team since then.

    The only way the Blazers get the 5th seed is if their opponents rest their players and tank.
