Also, I'm 99% sure that's Tunchi. 3 posts and it's already obvious as hell.

@SlyPokerDog

Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

The NBA would be so much fun this year without the Warriors. Youd have more true contenders than ever before: Milwaukee, Toronto, Boston, Philadelphia, Denver, OKC, Portland, Houston, Utah...

Right now theres the Warriors and those Eastern teams. But we all know Golden State will win. Im really hoping KD goes to New York and Cousins goes to a team like Sacremento. Then Golden State would be on the level of those teams and you could maybe add NY and Sacremento to the mix.

Lakers about to lose to the Grizzlies hahaha..

I thought LeBron activated "playoff mode"?

He/they DID... "play-OFF mode..."

Seriously. Wouldn't it be cool to see Cousins go back to Sac? That would be really crazy.

You know MY vote.

14 minutes!?

You know MY vote.

laker fans these days.... smh.

Two quad's is pretty legit, but Getting a triple-double in 14 minutes probably wins.

 

[handiman]

I mean, as impressive as those accomplishments all are, it sets the table for the obvious "one stat to rule them all" goal: four triple doubles in one game by the same player, one per quarter. That gets you the record for quickest triple double, gets a quadruple of sorts, and accounts for a minimum of 120 points, so clearly surpasses Kobe's 81.

 

[riverman]

Nope.

Serious question....the combine surprised me for Oladipo...he looks short to me the few times I've seen him play..You don't think CJ has grown since the draft? combine? Those are old stats now. I do. Look at him next to Dame now compared to his rookie season...eye test. You could be right...just saying guys still grow in their 20s..and CJ definitely had a late growth spurt starting out as a 5'2 player back in the day. I've noticed CJ seems taller than Dame side by side than he used to...it used to be hard to tell their height difference but now it seems obvious CJ is taller. You are right about the combine measurements for sure..

Wow... gotta give it up for Doc. That was an amazingly classy move. Hard to hate on him there.

Doc called Dirk the greatest of all time.

Wait. Are you with them or against them? ‘Cause it can’t be both.

No he didn't. He said one of the greatest.

Myba I’m Bi. Maybe I go both ways.

 

[B-Roy]

Myba I’m Bi. Maybe I go both ways.

You're Brandon Ingram? How'd you feel about LeBron trying to trade you?

 

[riverman]

Myba I’m Bi. Maybe I go both ways.

I'm going to not reply to this....it's just too easy...a softball post waiting to get smacked out of the park!

I'm still scratching my head. Isn't being bi and going both ways the same?

Asking for friend.

LOL! This dude "averages" 25/6/2 (TWO!? why even include such an insignificant number!?!) over a FIVE GAME stretch and people are getting excited? Oh, and how many wins? One? You mean to tell me this MFer put up some rather pedestrian numbers, lost 80% of the games, and other MFers are talking about it? GTFO!

 

[Cugel]

what else do they have to talk about?
Loser Lonzo's lethality from the line?

 

[BigGameDamian]

LeBron is acting like a big baby.

I’m not a fan of Ingrim, but if my starting SF averaged 24 and 6..... I’d be cool with the 2.

But he doesn't. And his team sucks because he sucks.

 

[DDolla]

I’m scared of Denver, they are so deep and well coach.

 

[THE HCP]

What? You just said that's what he was averaging and were complaining about the 2.

 

[LayneStaley]

Someone refresh me, what did we get for trading that first to Denver in 2016 that became Beasley? I’d sure like him and Barton back.
