Shut your whore mouth! There is NOTHING wrong with CJ’s game!

Lol, he even admitted to needing to get better at setting up his team mates. So... I win!

 

[Chris Craig]

I have some issues with CJ’s game at times, and I get some of the arguements that he hasn’t been good at setting up his team mates and him and Dame make a fairly short back court.

Watching him play and create is a treat though. Just in terms of pure offensive craftsmanship and ability to get his shot he’s an elite player. He doesn’t get credit for being all that athletic, but his balance while dribbling and putting on moves is elite.

He needs to learn to pass when he is cut off on his drive and has no where to go. Instead he puts up terrible fg% shots that habe no possibilty of going in. When he is hitting threes, and getting to the basket he's good. But learn to pass man.

 

[Cippy91]

That hook with the right off glass CJ seems to have polished in the off-season is gonna be very useful against rim protectors and good defenders contesting his shot

 

[0-Our!]

Also, that left handed floater at the very end is new.

However... Meyers THE "floater" is not...

If only they could cut his pay 50%, he'd look like a good player.

Unlike Evan Turner. If you cut his pay by 50%, he'd still look like a bad player.

In Boston, Turner and Isaiah Thomas said many dumbo quotes to the media. That's how he earned 80% of his pay there, as an offcourt entertainer. So he's not earning 80% times $3.3 million = $2.8M here. Therefore, he should only make $17.1 - 2.8 = $14.3M.

Too much time on my hands tonight. Need to get back to my cure for cancer lab in the garage.

Need to get back to my bong in the garage.

Clippers Match Tyrone Wallace's Offer Sheet With Pelicans
Sep 5, 2018 9:14 PM

The Los Angeles Clippers have matched the offer sheet Tyrone Wallace signed with the New Orleans Pelicans.

The Clippers now have 17 contracts on their roster, (emphasis mine) which will require them to make multiple roster moves before the season stars.

 

[James lamphear]

I see majority of the players are together at the practice facility. Start training camp 24 Sept.

Pass to who? I’d rather he and Dame take difficult low % shots every time down the floor, than anybody else on our team shoot.

ESPN.com should add another line.

Olshey Analysis: -10 Wins. "I'm not sure Jimmy Butler will fit our team and what we're trying to do. Evan Turner gives us a third ball handler".

Tobias Harris please.

 

[Hoopguru]

Tobias Harris please.

That would be sweet, I really like his game and think he'd be a good fit.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Tobias Harris please.

I think Neil's done making big moves this summer.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

I think Neil's done making big moves this summer.

Did he ever start making big moves this summer...?

 

[e_blazer]

Did he ever start making big moves this summer...?

He let Ed Davis go.

 

[TorturedBlazerFan]

He let Ed Davis go.

Well hopefully he’s done making bad moves...

Anyone else down with starting a Go Fund Me campaign to pay Draymond Green to shut the fuck up? I'm sure it wouldn't be cheap, but it would be so worth it. No whining or yelling at the refs during the games and no being a complete asshole during interviews.

The thing I hate the most about the Warriors is not their dominance, it's that ass hat's constant whining when his team gets more calls in their favor than any other team in the league. He has no legitimate reason to complain, but he does - nonstop, from opening tip to final buzzer, during dead balls and live action. He's all over the refs and gets away with more than any other player I've ever seen.

Watching him win three championships, and counting, is what it would have been like for CP3 and Doc to win multiple titles in LAC. Thank god that never happened.

BNM

Only player I know that made illegal contact with an official, drew blood, and received no punishment.

LeBron making dunks and 3-pointers and Simmons making, and missing, layups.

Notice: Simmons didn't even attempt a FG longer than 3 feet in that video.

Yep, about what I'd expect in a pick up game featuring these two.

Someone needs to explain to me why the most expensive things are the ugliest things? That versace shorts are freaking horrible.

 

[jlprk]

HEY. I'M WEARING VERSACE SHORTS RIGHT NOW.

 

[jlprk]

Is this related to the Versailles Treaty which I remember oh so well?

 

[stampedehero]

It sucks when you scroll down to the first picture and it 's "them".
