    Fair enough, if your recognizing that it was going on all of the time until last season then I can go for that.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    People talking about how Wood was "available" for Ariza is a bit like saying that Kevin Durant was available for D'Angelo Russell, so why didn't the Blazers beat that with McCollum and maybe a draft pick?

    Durant wanted to go to Brooklyn. Wood wanted to go to Houston. The trades were worked out after to make that happen more easily, with some compensation (for making it work more easily) going to the original teams.

    The Bucks might think about firing their coach, I know GH is out but come on they shouldn't be losing like they are? Right? Im sure the Buck fans have his back and some.
    But, maybe they would be interested in Middleton for CJ a player that that win win games in the clutch.

    JAMES HARDEN staving off a Chris Paul "dame-time-ish" run.

    Phoenix almost Pushed them back like the Blazers did tonight, but no dice. Good on the Nets for helping us out.

    Remember when we were up 20+ against the Suns last season at home and lost? Now PHX knows how we felt.

    An epic collapse.

    Yeh he led the Nets from 20 some down without Deandre Jordan, Durant or Irving. I think 38 points, 11 assists, 7 rebounds.
