D. Rose injured? Pretty sure that exactly no one saw that coming.


Or was it, everyone saw that coming? I can't remember. :noidea:

2-3 weeks. Minor injuries, not one that will keep him out all season.

Somehow I just knew when the Thunder where up 23 that they would lose in the last seconds of the game.

Westbrook, PG and Melo need to quit trying to take turns and just play basketball, or this isn't going to work.

LOL I said it because you said nobody has made a bigger ass of themselves & that's just not a true statement.
People crack me up how they invent levels of something. e.g. - losing in the 1st round of the playoffs vs. losing in the later rounds. At the end of the day they're both losers.

And in this case how KD is the bigger jackass when compared to LBJ because of - well, what? KD tried to defend himself vs. LBJ putting on a concert when he decided to switch teams? They're both jackasses at times. SMH


I said nobody has made a bigger jackass outta himself lately, there's a difference. So what I said is actually a true statement. And you're fooling yourself if you think it was LeBron by himself & not the Heat organization that put that little party together.

Lately? I can't either. But Lebron, when he first went to the Heat, would give him a real run for his money.

No doubt about that. But like I just said to LAD I don't believe LeBron put that stupid welcome party together all by himself. The Heat organization also deserves some blame for that nonsense.

Actually, he has.

I don't recall LeBron creating fake social media accounts to defend himself. But there's no doubt both have done some dumbass things during their careers.

That is just it.

Not sure they know how. None of them seem to have any clue how to play with other great players. All 3 know how to play with the ball, but seem to struggle without it.

They have time to figure it out, but this is exactly why nobody should blame KD for leaving. Russ had 8 years to figure it out while KD was there, and he never did.

OKC has had a bunch of close losses so they will see some positive win regression, but they aren't anywhere close to where they should be based on their talent.

This big 3 is so different than James, Wade, and Bosh.

Looked good (to some) when Presti acquired PG and Melo......but they don't mesh very well......so far.

No, but he did get on national tv to tell everyone what shitty lives they have and how awesome his is. Had his "posse" take away video of him getting dunked on by a college kid, etc., etc.
