    Honest question…..so if Russell Westbrook who leads a KDless OKC team to the playoffs averaging a TRIPLE DOUBLE is trash…..and Kevin love putting up 30/20 games on a shit Wolves team back in the day is stat chasing…….why is Cade putting up huge numbers on a middle school team like the Pistons a good thing? Why is that fantastic and not the other players?

    And I genuinely believe that if Riley had offered more, we would have heard about it when we took the offer from Milwaukee.

    Did the person to whom you're posing that question actually say those things?

    @SlyPokerDog what have you done?

    Nuggets Gordon out with dog bite
    Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon needed 21 stitches after suffering lacerations to his face and right hand while being bitten by a family dog at Christmas.

    The original post did not specifically say that but many have.

    Westbrook will always be seen as an inefficient scorer. His time with the Lakers enforced that. Seems a great fit for the Clippers coming off the bench though.

    Love really had to sacrifice his numbers to win. To get the rebounding and scoring numbers early in his career, it was seen as at the expense of defense.

    Cunningham's eFG% this year is .494 and is getting better every year. Westbrook has a career number of .469. Surprisingly, that career number is getting better with the Clippers.

    Who said it was? He's horribly inefficient and just shooting all the time because they've got nobody else. He is a "franchise player" like Trae Young is (only even worse).

    I've been horribly bitten by our cats many times and never needed even one stitch. One more advantage Cat People.

    The only time a cat bite needed medical attention was when one of my cats was trapped with a wire around her leg, panicking. Because of her panic she bit me badly. I could not hold her head back and unwrap the wire
    At the same time and was afraid of what would happen if I left her to get help. By the time she was free her paw was covered with my blood. Next day my hand was all swollen. Cats carry two strains of bacteria in their mouths that humans don't so we have no immunity. Needed a shot and a bunch of pills, all while explaining Celia is a very good cat, she was just panicked.

    Although she has long since used up her ninth life, she did have a very long life, 18 years, before cancer took her. A very pretty long haired calico.
