    You can do a cartwheel to defend a 3 point shooter as long as you don't kick someone in the face.

    You aren’t wrong on any of this. Especially Green being a terrible loser who would get frustrated. But that’s what makes him so good. I’ve seen him play in person about twenty times. He’s an unreal defender. Literally all five positions.

    Draymond Green is not average. He’s incredible on defense and can score. That translates to every team if he plays hard.

    So the Blazers apparently can only beat a team on the road if their star is out, while the Timberwolves apparently can't beat the same team .....at home. Nice win by the Wiz

    Ha and you thought going on the internet and reading a thread titled "around the NBA" was a good idea?

    Karma bitch!!!!

    Serves you right. I'm so sick of all your thread crapping "if we only had an Around the NBA thread" bullshit. It's beyond tired and was never funny to begin with. I find it ironically humorous that you came to this Around the NBA thread and it bit you in the ass.

    This goes in the Around the NBA thread.

    I may start moving threads there more consistently. Keep it Blazer related to an extent, guys.

    So here is a quote from Enes Kanter-
    “I’m not going to tell who, but I told somebody, ‘Hey man, go out there and fight with somebody. It will get the energy up.” No, I’m serious. If you go out there and just hit somebody or just fight with somebody, get a technical foul, I will pay for the fine, I don’t care. Just go out there and do your thing. Because we need that energy, we need that fight. It doesn’t matter if we’re down by 25, a fight, get a technical foul, the crowd is in it, and they’re gonna get nervous.”

    Pretty much admits he told Beasley to go start a fight with Nurkic.

    He should get fined AND suspended.

    C.J. got suspended for leaving the bench during a preseason game in a completely non-threatening way. Logically, encouraging a teammate to start a fight should carry a harsher penalty, but the NBA doesn't always act in the most logical manner.

    You have no idea what James said to the ref. There are certain magic words that will automatically get you a technical, even if you're LeBron James. He's been in the league long enough to know that, even if you don't.
