Damn it, WAMU!!!!

3,499 word breakdown on the difference between Sexton and Young coming soon from Wiggy.....when are ya gonna learn?

Dammit, my bad!

 

[DJ]

Are dating and fucking Kardashian sisters the same or is there a difference?

Asking for a friend.

That I agree with. He came up big in the Jazz game with some 4th quarter pointz, but he still has TO problems and while he was close to a triple double at halftime, he didn't appear to be that active in the 3rd quarter, though that might have more to do with Embiid being out because of foul trouble. He also doesn't appear to be finishing strong at the rim.

Something to definitely keep an eye on.

The Sixers general 3rd quarter malaise is really frustrating. Hopefully Butler can help fix that.

The Cavs should have drafted Tre Young instead of C


Will Danny Deep Pockets be able to save his franchise or will sell the team? I think Danny Dollarz should sell & go back to Detroit where he belongs. Fucker's probably a meeeechegan fan too!

He won't sell.

Not now anyway.

Trae was already gone when the Cavs picked.

But, SGA wasn't.

In all honesty, I wanted Sexton.

So, I'm not about to Shit on the kid after 15 fricking games.

Shai was my second choice.

I still think Colin has Fox in Sacto type potential.

The Cavs need to hire a player development Guru to help him get there.

But, I'm happy we got Alexander.

A rumor I heard (or maybe just made up, not sure). Klowhee is tired of dating a foreigner & is looking for another NBAer to ruin. But this time the NBAer gots to be 'Murican.

I just hope it's not the Jenner girl.

She went from Clarkson, to Blake to Ben Simmons in about 18 months.

You don't handcuff a NBA pass around.

My bad w/ that comment. I should have looked up the '18 draft before I said that. Tre was the 5th pick & the Cavs didn't pick until 8. wiggy's gonna yell @ me for this!

 

[Mecca]

Bad part about this game...

Lakers win: Wiggy, l23j, Cane troll the Heat...

Heat win: same to the Lakers...

She sure gets around. In a couple of years she'll be a walking & talking STD.

uhhh...

well considering young was drafted before the Cavs were on the clock kind of throws a lil monkey wrench into that

Lebron confirming what we all knew. @WiggyRuss can you post the full article from the athletic?

LeBron James: Kyrie Irving Trade 'Beginning of the End' of Cavaliers Era

other people have posted a lot of it- but here is, what i think is the most pertinent part:

There is nuance with the Irving deal. When Irving demanded to be traded in July 2017, he did so in large part because he no longer wanted to play with James.

Irving, in fact, told the Cavs he wanted out so badly he’d go ahead with knee surgery and miss a large portion of the year if he wasn’t traded. James, who did little to try to bridge the divide with Irving, told the Cavs to keep Irving in spite of his threats.




Kyrie wanted out.....LeBron didnt want him to leave- but never even picked up the phone to call Irving because his ego got in the way.

That and he fact that LeBron refused to commit even if they agreed not to grant Kyrie's wish.

I hope not. I think you spelled KardASSian wrong though.

Simmons?

 

[DJ]

What do you think about Ball for Josh Jackson?

Jackson probably has more value.

But, Mikal is going to take that starting spot, long-term.

Ariza was a ill advised signing and Warren get buckets.

One or more of those Dude's needs to get dealt for a legit pg prospect.

Isn't Jackson repetitive for us with Ingram and Kuzma?
