    The mother superior would like to kindly ask that you refrain from doing it too often. They can't handle the influx of nun candidates.

    If this team stays healthy I think they are being underestimated. Some solid veterans and LEADERSHIP goes a very very long way. Where they might lack in talent or multiple stars, they have some real grit and leadership. But yes health is #1.

    I think it's just an audition to do a porno. They told me the camera wasn't even on.

    Wasn’t going to bug Dame for a pic….. Coach Billups is so cool… first thing he did was ask if my daughter committed to a college yet. His daughter was in the same league and system as mine. So he’s been through all the recruiting battles with her. Just a great down to earth dude.

    I second that!
    Coach has always gone above and beyond to be totally cool with me.
    Very inspirational, nice, man.
    Granted, I don't know him like you do.

    Anthony Edwards is like a smaller, more sustainable Zion as a guard. Fucking tank.

    Are you hinting that the Wolves will have a better record than the Blazers?

    OMG OMG OMG


    The Houston Rockets and Oklahoma City Thunder came to terms on a trade Thursday evening, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. Eight players in total will be involved, four from each team, as well as a 2025 second-round pick headed to Houston.

    Houston gets:

    • Derrick Favors
    • Ty Jerome
    • Moe Harkless
    • Theo Maledon
    • 2025 second-round pick
    Oklahoma City gets:

    • David Nwaba
    • Sterling Brown
    • Trey Burke
    • Marquese Chriss
    Per Wojnarowski, the Thunder will accumulate two trade exceptions while moving well under the luxury tax, with the second-round pick compensating Houston for taking on extra salary.
