Westbrook 14 rebounds

George 12 rebounds

Adams 1 rebound


Totally shameless lol
 
Lebron experiencing all kinds of karma. Lakers looking like a repeat of last year's Cavs, maybe even worse, and in the West so no playoff hope. And he's in a FOUR YEAR CONTRACT.

But upset to see Philly lose tonight, so much for my fantasy of them humiliating the Celtics

I watched the Sixers - Celtics game. Celtics laid down some AWESOME D -- the game was close to playoff levels of D and intensity.

Kyrie didn't play -- of course, THAT had nothing to do with the Celtics playing better D :chuckle::chuckle::chuckle::chuckle:
 
As far as what Stevens is trying to run there it seems they might be better off without him. How else can anyone explain them beating Philly who, on paper, has a waaaay better roster? Best case, they meet in the playoffs, Boston loses in like 5 and Kyrie fucks off to wherever the hell he wants . . .
 
The LeSchadenfreude Lakers are looking pretty good on that front.
So are the CeLOLtics.

Even though I will still hate that Kyrie trade, the bad blood he's building with that fanbase mirrors what LeBron is doing with the Lakers, for similar reasons. and what's even more hilarious, Kyrie can probably leave that team in the offseason.

Side note, Marc Gasol is a quality pick up for Toronto. I did LOL at the Patrick McCaw sighting (pretty good no-look dime to him from Gasol in the highlights). From here on out I will always LOL when I see him play basketball because of how mad Golden State was about him of all players.

What happens to LA and Lebron if no big time free agents go to the Lakers? Does Lebron request a trade out of there? Going to be a pretty embarrassing situation all around,,quite amusing.

I've thought about this too. I feel like LeBron won't want to get traded unless the Lakers get back JR Smith and George Hill like contracts, like no real assets. I feel like he would push for a buy out but somehow I feel like he would refuse to give much money back.

I actually think whatever it is would be some final act from Magic and he resigns or gets fired after the paperwork is sent in to the league.

Giannis could've had 30/20/10 today, but made absolutely no effort to poach rebounds from his teammates down the stretch. Sickening. #NotMyMVP

Giannis is the MVP and it shouldn't be close.

He's flat out the best player in the league right now. He's on the best team in the league. He's maybe the best defender in the league.

This should damn near be unanimous.
 
Trae Young/John Collins are my favorite young player duo right now

I'd have said the Kings but there are 3 there now: Fox/Hield/Bags
 
Giannis isn't even trying. If he had Harden's 40 USG% he would have put up the same numbers.
