It’s just a conversation.

Nobody is being aggressive.

Sarcastic?

Sure.

I know....I was just kidding and stirring the cauldron.

 

[Mecca of the “B” Team]

Absolutely sick stretch of games for AD.

….and it’s sustainable from a talent perspective if he chooses.

Its time for him to be the guy permanently.

Sarcasm is MY schtick, dammit...

In that instance I'd say he's overdue. If he doesn't see that now when will he...?

I choose to believe Kobe has possessed his body.

Only thing I ever worry about is AD getting hurt. I call him street clothes for a reason...

Russ with 15 assists

I was wondering who Barkley got that from

At least he can't sue me for it...

I think in a lot of those games they chose not to play him out of caution. I don't remember any major injuries....just a lot of nagging little injuries.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

I know....I was just kidding and stirring the cauldron.

Haha.
Cauldron? Not even.
More like you stirring the dutch oven..or crock pot.

What's for dinner tonight, dude?

j/k...I really don't want to know.

 

[Tai Chi≈Surfing]

Nice win for the Knicks tonight over a pretty decent team.
Much needed too after they got trounced by the Mavs yesterday.

 

[msgkings322]

Boston got Brooklyn's number.

Nice start to a looong road trip.

Boston got everyone's number it seems except Chicago.

 

[msgkings322]

These guys do not know how to play basketball anymore. There have been 17 travel calls through 3 quarters. Ridiculous

This year those are getting called a lot more. It was specifically planned and communicated by the league that they wouldn't let as much obvious travelling and palming go.

 

[msgkings322]

It may be that the Lakers have figured out a plan where AD 'takes over' and LeBron is now 1B to his 1A. Even Westbrook seems to be buying in.

15 assists and only 8 shots today, I’d say so

Just one game today but he seems to be helping for a while now. Let's be honest very few of us believed he could.

He still has work to do because he still can't be trusted late in games.

For example, tonight he had 3 pretty inexcusable turnovers when the Wiz were making a run in the 4th quarter to try to get back in the game. Including one coming out of a timeout.

But he didn't compound it by taking and missing a bunch of crazy shots which shows progress.

Point being you can see them starting to figure it out, and plenty of time to continue. The biggest thing of course, stars staying healthy. True for every team but especially for this one.

Oh, no doubt. And him making me say "What the fuck was that?" only 3 times is an all time low...by a lot.
