    No problem. Heard it from multiple people who would know. Given my former relationship with the team, whether you believe me or not does not exactly cause me to lose sleep.

    Keep up the pessimism... it's entertaining, to a point.

    gonna quote this so that it is read again, for those that complain about Curry leaving. We legally could not pay him the amount he got.

    Asking for a link is not being pessimistic. It’s simply asking for some kind of link. I have people that said he would have been happy to be here had the team had a way to bring him back. Just saying. His brother pretty much said it was great playing against him and having him close as did his mom.
    Those things are verifiable. If you are interested.
    Even Ednisha is here.

    Umm...you're not seriously trying to claim that Ednisha Curry is related to Steph and Seth, are you?

    There is no link. There is/was my affiliation with the team and people who worked for the organization.

    There was a reason that many said he'd be the best player from that draft, even before Zion started on an Oden-esque trajectory.

    It is okay to respect a player without comparing. Try it.

    Saying this for years
    Pels can't defend any better than the Lakers. 142 points? Good grief.

    Spurs get it done. Good night so far.

    Now watching the Lakers go down, hopefully.

    If Ingram, CJ and even Zion comes back, i could see the Lakers Fall completely out of the play-in, they suck so much, it wouldn’t surprise me if the Spurs catch them too

    Slow down. 37 points on 33 shots is not impressive.
    Also the grizzlies are like a .900 team WITHOUT Ja.
    Point being… The Grizzlies are a very good team overall, so it’s not like he is carrying them like Dame has had to do.
