Everyone wants development to be quick...these guys, all 21. Just need to appreciate what they can do at this young age and wait a few years before admonishing them.

KAT is a marvel.

Funny, everyone saw the matchups for MLK day on TNT and they looked like studs, instead it turned out to be duds...now todays games looked like terrible games instead both of them turned out to be thrillers.

I can't believe the Blazers are so bad this year. 18-27? Second highest payroll in the league, and all those long term contracts they handed out this offseason... what happened lol

Do the Pelicans bother playing defense at all?

FFS, 73 points from the Nets bench tonight in NOLA (collectively + 115 for the scrubs), on 65% shooting ... ?

They're tragic outside of AD/Jrue.

AD shouldn't have signed that extension.

A. That team has $40/year tied up into Tyreke (who's been injured forever), Solmon Hills, Asik and Langston Hughes. That pointy thing you see not moving is a needle.

B. He missed out on the REAL big money. He would have had to bet on himself and hedge against injury but let's be honest. Franchise players are getting a max even injured (Amare with uninsurable knees to NY).

I'd personally help him move, drive him to and from the airport to come here .

Was that deliberate? I wasn't sure but his name is Langston Galloway.

Wasn't he talking about the wing 3 that he made? He was several feet behind the line but he kept saying it was 35 feet and that seemed very exaggerated. The box score listed it as a 30 footer which sounds more reasonable.

2 weeks into the season: Golden State gave up too much! They will miss Bogut and his defense, they won't be as effective this year on that end, replacing Barnes with Durant is gonna hurt them.

Midway point: Golden State OffRtg: 1st, DefRtg: 1st

Maybe they'll undervalue Damian Jones or something and we could swipe him X_X
then again this is Jerry we're talking about -_- so probably not.

We need to build a team in the next 3-4 seasons that's gonna challenge them or at least is built to beat them.

Normally I root for the Dubs, but I couldn't help but jump up and cheer when Waiters hit that three. I think I've finally embraced the Laker tank because my first thought was how it pushed us even closer to a potential top three pick.

So if the Lakers rallied off 10 straight wins you wouldn't cheer then?

It's the MDA effect. Lakers should have extended him

Maybe, but you have to give that bearded weirdo his due ... and I don't think MDA was going to find anyone on our roster at that point to create anything approaching this Harden effect ... 29 - 8 - 12 is pretty special work, but those (bleep) turnovers ... he's at almost 6 per game, FFS!

Regardless, 2x 50 triple double ... bow the (bleep) down, Westbrook, LeBron, Durant and Kawhi!
