They are DETERMINED to trade Bol Bol.

 

[wizenheimer]

what is Boston doing? This doesn't clear that much salary for them. I guess it saves some tax money

 

[Fairly-Hard]

They are DETERMINED to trade Bol Bol.

I kind of get the impression Denver is trying to do him a favor of sorts. I think Bol Bol needs to go somewhere he can sniff the court?
This season he's only played a grand total of 81 minutes.

Ain't it grand to be a Trail Blazer fan?

Jason Kidd and the Mavs stand out.

Note to self: make sure I always hug after I.... never mind.

We probably would have done this differently if we had known Lillard would miss most of the season.

This is pretty wild.

What was my boy DV thinking!!!??? HA!!!

 

[Shaboid]

CBS Sports Power Ranking. God, I hate the Lakers.

 

[THE HCP]

I wonder who will finish ahead of the other….. US or THEM?

 

[BlazerBeav]

All I know is that the Lakers being awful and the Jazz finally falling apart helps me feel better about how bad we are. Misery loves company.

 

[BlazerBeav]

This is pretty wild.

If that had happened to us at the Moda, I would have come unglued.

Lakers' Front Office Gave Frank Vogel Green Light To Bench Russell Westbrook
JAN 20, 2022 8:27 AM

Frank Vogel benched Russell Westbrook during the fourth quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers' loss to the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday.

Vogel had been given assurances that the organization would support him in taking a hard line coaching Westbrook.

One source close to the situation described the message from management to the staff as, "You got to do what you got to do."

Vogel removed Westbrook after he let Caris LeVert blow by him for a layup.

"The coaching staff had repeatedly emphasized the scouting report to take away LeVert's right hand, and Westbrook, guarding LeVert at the top of the key one-on-one, didn't angle himself properly to thwart the drive and allowed LeVert easy access to the paint en route to the hoop," writes Dave McMenamin.

It's so weird to me that the Lakers opted to change the shade of yellow on their uniforms.

Well, they're a pale reflection of team's past...

If they're closer to urine color it is appropriate, plus they'll cure covid.

Holy shit that was Vanterpool? I had no idea. It was a real bush league move too.

My Goodness Gary Payton II. The young glove got some hops

 

[BigGameDamian]

How is that a windup?

 

[BigGameDamian]

Just an embarrassing game for GSW.

Pacers Scrubs > Blazers Scrubs

 

[DDolla]

Pacers played hard… Carlisle one great coach. Warriors think they can just roll over the Pacers.
