gad, you're as bad as my wife...

i'm personally more of a DC guy, but on the Marvel side i lean towards the Avengers...

her favorite character is, of all X-Men, Nightcrawler...

never figured that one out...

I was always a Wolverine guy

So are we not going to talk about Lebron's personal letter on making 30k points (potentially tonight) to........himself?

I just saw that on another site & laughed my ass off. Even Durant's fake social media account thinks that's crazy.

What are the chances Lebron hosts his own awards in his living room every year? Judging by that he'd have way more accolades than Jordan or Kobe ever received.

Freaking hilarious lmfaooo

RICK CARLISLE FTW.

You should genulate and show more humility towards a self-proclaimed 9-time NBA champion, sir.

Everyone gave Durant so much crap over that (deservingly so). Lebron said hold my beer.

I said way early in the year or possibly before the start that Kevin Love at the 5 was a horrible idea. So far not only has it deteriorated the overall team defense and made Lebron play major minutes, but it's also had a huge negative impact on Tristan Thompson who's basically playing as a shell of himself.

Seriously, you have Kevin Love and Calderon/IT at your PG positions and what the hell do you expect is going to happen to your defense. Seriously Lue needs to go to save the situation.

Immediate fix is you plug Thompson back in the starting lineup with Love, Lebron, Crowder and IT. That way you have at least two legit defenders in there at your center and SG positions. Then you go small on the second unit with Wade, JR and Crowder at the 4 and Love at the 5. At least this way you can switch everything on the perimeter.

I'm pretty sure he's given his hairline a "comeback" award at some point too.

Win/Win trade according to the Trade Machine. I trust it.

That thing comes and goes as it pleases. Only time someone has won multiple comeback of the year awards. Don't let anyone question Lebron's perseverance and work ethic. His ability to fight balding is a thing of beauty. Fuck Kaitlyn Jenner, Lebron really deserved the courage award.

@gordontrue you're around buddy?

You spelled Kaitlyn Gender's name wrong.

Lue: Fiery Cavs meeting better lead to wins

Sources: Aaron Gordon, Victor Oladipo and Dennis Smith Jr. commit to Slam Dunk Contest

Finally some star power back in it. Likely at least 1 all-star going to be appearing in this with Oladipo. Aaron Gordon is a great surprise, I figured he would be done with it. No word on the 4th spot, but lots of guys who I'd love to see in it.

Smith has been trash as Fuck too.

Would have liked to see Mitchell and Brown too.

Bradley Beal is an All Star

Bradley Beal is an All Star

Hot take: He's the best guard on the Wizards right now.
