I think we all knew Jack's last year was the best he would ever have. I wanted him back but the price was too high, good job by the Dubs mngmnt on that one.

They still haven't fully figured out how to integrate Barnes either. I think this team will get better as the year goes ((as long as they're healthy (gonna stop using that qualifier now)).

That's some kinda bro love xp

i can get you into the nba but you have to get a tattoo of my choosing

ok

tbf i would do the same thing

http://espn.go.com/blog/marc-stein/post/_/id/242/lakers-clips-would-consider-lamar-odom

who wouldnt tbf xp

i forgot about toney douglas

i like toney douglas

yeah he's been pretty good.

i like speights who shoots every time

they should let odom sign with both teams and only play home games.

literally every time. I've counted three passes this year no joke.

somehow iggy got @andre on twitter

someone visited twitter hq

ha

I know he won't keep up these insane numbers but Reggie otm last night that Iggy can just play free and has no pressure at all. He's like the 4th option on the floor sometimes and he's totally at home in that position.

also sincere apologies ILH for typing the words "Reggie otm"

When the Warriors get Ezeli back they're going to be pretty deep imo.

Is Carl Landry still alive?

*unclicks flag post*

haha

landry got moved and then tore his hip out 3-4 months

so the dubs got the landry/jack thing right kudos

http://www.grantland.com/blog/the-triangle/post/_/id/82634/getting-angry-about-jeremy-lin-all-over-again

conclusion that the knicks didn't deserve lin is otm

yeah I'm glad he got w Houston.

i have to imagine he is, too.

the idea of being a global icon prob sounds alluring but making $30m and being a "normal" star athlete doesn't sound too bad

thing is he's still a global icon, and china already freaking loved the rockets because of yao. perfect sitch for him

right but obv it would be blown up x1000 if he had stayed in nyc

he seems like the type of person who would enjoy a more private life

some people I know do look at Lin like a traitor, but he did make the right move. and let's face it, he wasn't gonna shine under Melo's politics

he seems like the type of person who would enjoy a more private life

needs jesus time i guess

interesting how many of the best tweeters suck so hard at writing longer

Read that as "best twerkers suck so hard" :/

Can't wait for this year to be over

so good, the in unison follow through

i think he's filipino, his real name is jason concepcion

also i thought that piece i linked to was good although i agree with the point that a lot of good tweeters are annoying actual writers

its nice how you can tell he sees them too his right hand slightly extended in the vaguest consideration of reciprocating xp

its soo florid and trying hard to be interesting and fun that its practically freedarkro xp

tho tbf its far more coherent

haha the clowning dude bro in yellow who somehow knows they are gonna whiff before it even happens

oh yeah you're totally right i forgot that one paragraph in the middle where he totally overdoes it

For an organization that had spent the past dozen years building ill-fitting teams of towel-bedecked misanthropes on the carbonized ashes of millions of dollars in player contracts, throwing good money after bad money after Jerome James money into 55-loss hellmouths, the sudden conversion to parsimonious rectitude was at best ironic and at worst utterly unconvincing and capricious.

yeah i mean its actually not terrible but his tweets are ingenious xp

its nice how you can tell he sees them too his right hand slightly extended in the vaguest consideration of reciprocating xp

At first I thought this was a description of netw3rk upon seeing lag?n tweeting at him
