The guy still running high off an unexpected World Series run on house money who walks into his classroom everyday greeted by the Super Bowl LII flag that proclaims the Philadelphia Eagles World Fucking Champions. There’s always a bright side of the street in Philly sports.

I'd say act like your team has won something before...but you're a Philly fan.

If you don’t live in the Northeast corridor you really don’t know. Sports just hits differently here.

Losing all the time will do that.

Bulls 8-10 but just took down the 2 best in the east back to back games

None of these teams are so much better than the others. Lotta competitive balance right now, similar to last year.

 

[msgkings322]

Klay with another great start. Maybe he's finally settling in.

 

[trojanfan12]

None of it matters because your team can’t shoot.

He’s been great.

You can’t win trading two’s for three’s.

Not with this roster.

Yep, even if Lebron comes back and plays at a high level and AD keeps playing like he has for the last few games (and both stay healthy), that just makes them a team that could get out of the first round. They are going to need to make a move for a shooter or 2.

If they had shot 30% from 3 last night, they had a great chance to win...they shot 18%.

 

[trojanfan12]

Yeah, I can agree with that.

But, there’s a catch 22 with that.

He has totally earned every minute of playing time because the rest of your roster is hot garbage.

He wouldn’t get off the bench for most above .500 teams.

I think that’s why people think you are gassing him up.

For the record, I’m not one of them.

I like the kid.

He and Caruso both have Kobe related nicknames.

Caruso is Bald Mamba.

Reaves was Hillbilly Kobe in high school and college.

Yeah except the Cavs of course

 

[Shanemansj13]

Kevin Knox has come alive. Future all-star!

 

[msgkings322]

Yeah except the Cavs of course

Oh right, yeah they are much worse than the others.

 

[trojanfan12]

You lost most of the games he played….lmao

To be fair, they've lost most of the games everyone has played.

 

[Shanemansj13]

This is To be fair, they've lost most of the games everyone has played.

 

[trojanfan12]

Klay with another great start. Maybe he's finally settling in.

I mean, I'm sure he didn't forget how to shoot. It's unlikely that he'll be the defender he was before the injuries. But offensively, it's not like he was some super athletic high fly act.

 

[SMOKEY95]

Kevin Knox has come alive. Future all-star!

JALEN DUREN IS A FUTURE ALL STAR SPECIAL TALENT

 

[Shanemansj13]

Playing the best bball of his life

Smart

Meanwhile this season Caruso is a step above Thubulle on offense.

Thybulle is one of the worst offensive players in the league

Thybulle is one of the worst offensive players in the league

One of?

Hard to take too much away from this game with the Clippers missing their 2 best players, but Kerr has been trying to fix the bench by rotating starters in with the bench guys so there's always some top level guys out there. So last rotation was Draymond & Wiggins with 3 bench guys. At the end of the 3rd quarter it was Curry and Looney out there with them. It's working tonight, 30 bench points and counting plus they haven't been shitty defensively.
