    Such a garbage trade.

    But, whatever.

    I’m also partially insane because I said he was our second best player.

    I still lean towards that being true.

    Pretty much the only player on our roster (at the time) that could NOT score and still make a massive impact on the game (pushing it in tradition, rebounding, all-out-defense).

    I get that scoring is sexy, but I’d take him over Ant any day.

    This looks like some sort of picture a kidnapper would send out for a ransome in an action movie.

    I still hate it when a player jumps out of bounds to save the ball by throwing the ball off of an opposing player to save the ball. Can’t stand that shit. The ball should just be ruled out of bounds. I have never liked that rule.

    They are in a 1 possession game against a #6 seed at home.

    If I were the Kings, I’d take it easy on the celebration. Congrats to them on the W, but that ain’t your normal #6 seed. According to the numbers, they are the best offensive team in the league and beat a 6 seed at home by 3. And I’m not a Warriors fan.

    You should have asked that question before you supported the firing of Stotts on here 10x a day.
