    Yeah I watched it as well. Both Curry and Durant missed horribly on shots in the 4th, but they always seem to hit a big one at the end.

    Yeah Ingram is sneaky good we he gets in the paint. He is so long....and has decent handles. And he is just good enough from deep that you can't back off of him.

    Odom is not a great comparison for Ingram at all. Hell, he's closer to KD with his scoring ability.

    This is some sensationalized stuff. Instead of what happens just about everywhere else (the player coming out to say "I'm not getting playing time, so I'm transferring" or "I thank the team for the opportunity, but the system is not a for me" or "I came here for coach X, so if he's gone I'm looking at my options"), in this case it's "Lavar pulls his son out of college".

    I mean, Johntay Porter, 4star recruit going to where his dad got an asst. coaching job, at least got on twitter:

    or Kyle Allen, QB at Texas A&M transferring:
    I can't find anyone else in a quick search whose pops was like "I'm pulling my boy out b/c Coach K doesn't play him" or whatever.
    Seriously?

    Lavar ball is burning so many bridges on behalf of his children

    It's happening to a kid from Portland:

    The fucked up thing is that he was doing well and getting PT at Michigan.
