clay, is mike rice gone?

Allen (etaeoe), Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:20 (seven years ago) link

yeah i had to switch off the portland stream last night because the color guy was spewing platitudes and making me angry

i liked the hornets folks based on like 5 games i watched towards the end of last yr

ciderpress, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:22 (seven years ago) link

hahaha i blame my celtics obsessed gf who watches every pregame

i also don't know if he would be good or bad. my point was that it seemed unlikely that he has a lot of opportunities.

Allen (etaeoe), Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:22 (seven years ago) link

most of that scal stuff has been p wildly reported and gs not letting jackson fire him did happen and ppl def do say nice things abt him, idk it all seems p realistic to me

lag∞n, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:23 (seven years ago) link

gorman is pretty good tho

Allen (etaeoe), Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:24 (seven years ago) link

IT lighting up thee nets btw

lag∞n, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:24 (seven years ago) link

never forget scal played a bunch of randos who claimed they could take him one on one and the aggregate score was like 80-1 or something

call all destroyer, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:24 (seven years ago) link

he def has a better grasp on the game than almost every player/commentator or at least a better ability to express it either way good coaching qualities, like i said he does sound dumb but if u listen to what he says

lag∞n, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:27 (seven years ago) link

jaylen brown not scared

lag∞n, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:28 (seven years ago) link

i remember the reporting but i also remember the source was usually (always?) scal (except the one jackson interview the day after he was fired). eh who knows?

and i'm mostly just complaining to complain

Allen (etaeoe), Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:28 (seven years ago) link

scal truthers r tearing the nation apart imo

lag∞n, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:29 (seven years ago) link

i keep flipping to the sixers game during commercial breaks and embiid is never on the floor i still dont think he exists

ciderpress, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:29 (seven years ago) link

i saw him

lag∞n, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:30 (seven years ago) link

you can blame my bad additude on the pistons getting crushed by the raps rn

Allen (etaeoe), Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:30 (seven years ago) link

appreciate that jaylen brown has decided that cutting and dunking are the best nba skills to master first

call all destroyer, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:30 (seven years ago) link

reasonable approach

lag∞n, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:32 (seven years ago) link

demar derozan is the worst player to score 40 points... tonight

J0rdan S., Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:33 (seven years ago) link

we've got tyler zeller barreling down the lane for dunks

call all destroyer, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:34 (seven years ago) link

excited to see the rockets put up 140 on the lakers, which will definitely happen

ciderpress, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:36 (seven years ago) link

zeller looks super good. curious to see what happens when olynyk is back.

Allen (etaeoe), Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:39 (seven years ago) link

zellers always been a good pnr finisher and his defensive numbers r good never been able to isolate the issue that keeps him from getting consistent minutes

lag∞n, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:42 (seven years ago) link

harrison barnes ties the game w 2ish seconds left!

geometry-stabilized craft (art), Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:43 (seven years ago) link

xp yeah lots of fans don't like him and i don't get it, he has great hands and knows how to score around the basket.

call all destroyer, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:43 (seven years ago) link

stauskas making plays!

J0rdan S., Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:46 (seven years ago) link

might be as simple as them liking johnson better in that role xp

lag∞n, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:49 (seven years ago) link

yeah i can see that for johnson's defense but i'd let zeller run with second units for the scoring

call all destroyer, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:53 (seven years ago) link

theres a lot of mysterious names on the twolves bench still

ciderpress, Thursday, 27 October 2016 01:57 (seven years ago) link

lag∞n, Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:01 (seven years ago) link

Spottie, Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:04 (seven years ago) link

J0rdan S., Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:05 (seven years ago) link

embiid looks good for a guy who hasn't played basketball in 2 yrs

geometry-stabilized craft (art), Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:06 (seven years ago) link

free brow from that ancient curse of a team

ciderpress, Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:09 (seven years ago) link

J0rdan S., Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:14 (seven years ago) link

i just realized that charlotte traded out big al for roy hibbert, that's kind of funny for some reason

call all destroyer, Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:15 (seven years ago) link

hibbert sucks but i feel like clifford could maybe make something of him

J0rdan S., Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:16 (seven years ago) link

he can't be completely cooked yet is my opinion

call all destroyer, Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:16 (seven years ago) link

J0rdan S., Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:27 (seven years ago) link

ciderpress, Thursday, 27 October 2016 02:29 (seven years ago) link
