Did they ever find out his cause of death?

I am pretty sure it was a heart attack.

he was a really good play by play guy.

I can see why opposing fans hate Austin Carr- all hometown guys are homers- but Carr combines extreme homerism with a heavy dose of senility.

ifyou combined the Lakers and Jazz- the Lakers 2 stars- and all the very solid Jazz role players- youd have a helluva team!

Dude, If they keep it up, they will be able to sell these guys at a all-time high.

Lauri mark showing how much better he is over rudy cuckbert. A SKILLED big man. Not a French fried bleached haired faggot like gobert, the goat dork hahahah

Jazz the biggest surprise of the league so far.

Lakers the biggest disappointment, but that wasn't a surprise

I am glad the Rockets, jazz and thunder are all in the West- because eventually they will all rise.

out of all the bad teams in the East- the only one I give real hope to is the Pistons to eventually rise.

Id like to add the Magic but it just does not seem like they can ever get it together.

you pumped for House of the D?

you have your bare feet up on your chaise lounge?

I already watched it and I'm still all up in my feelings.

2 fucking years until the next episode.

dude you have a lot of anger and unresolved issues dont you? lol......geezus.

I think people hated playing with Gobert but that doesnt change the fact the dude won multiple DPOY awards and is a very good NBA player.

I think Mitchell hated the style that requires plying with him- hated toiling in anonmyity in Utah.

not like Cleveland is an NBA destination city, but you can get anywhere on the East coast quick, a lot of talented young guys that Mitchell should enjoy playing with- and I think that they are giving him the leader role and some freedom and confidence. Its his team.

They need to chuck that Issacs contract for a guy that can actually contribute.

such a joke 2 years. Hopefully itll be like 1.5 "only".

I am glad its 10 episodes though instead of 8 which a lot of shows are doing. I would love 12 but that has seemed to go by the wayside.

I'm almost convinced this is a bot.

Would make the nonsensical nature of almost every post make sense.

Its just word vomit.

We must chat after you watch it.

Again: They changed some shit.

Same outcome.

But, different intentions.

I both like it and hate it....lol

You are seeing the motivated version, like his rookie year when he looked special. He’s good but you will let us know when the honeymoon is over.

So his rookie year is the only year he was special? Lol I don’t think that is right

 

[Shanemansj13]

For fucks sake....

Utah is up on the Fly, Pelicans fly 63-53 at the half.

Maybe they aren't tanking wrong.

They are building up their current players to sell high ass fuck?

That’s why Ainge’s plan doesn’t work. He gets the picks and the plan is in place but then all hell breaks loose lol

 

[thunderc]

His rookie year he looked like he was going to be special. Then he just got off that trajectory completely.

 

[WiggyRuss]

defensively he looks better.

not gonna say I watched a ton of Utah games- but that was a common critique of his game. He has the length and athleticism to be better defensively. Like thunder said- he is prob. on his "best behavior" right now- but I really think that the young talented players, the coach, the responsibility he has been given- I think will help him take his game to the next level now that he is entering his prime.

 

[WiggyRuss]

not only that- but Aigne was great at acquiring assets in Boston- but ttaking those extra picks, and using them were not met with good results all the time.

at some point- he needs to cash in the chips and realize that teams are willing to "overpay" for talent- and at some point that is what you have to do.

 

[Shanemansj13]

His rookie year he looked like he was going to be special. Then he just got off that trajectory completely.

I think he finally got help so in Utah he looked bad defensively bc he had to be Utah’s #1 every single night with less help. Cleveland focuses on defense and he has better players around him that play on both sides

Call it how i see it.

gobert's problem was his game didn't translate to playoffs. He turns into a HUGE dork in the playoffs. Not sure why, i figured he would be used to big games from his Olympic experience. Reggie Jackson ran circles around that clown. Gobert started the coronavirus as well

 

[Retroram52]

That Logo 3 from LeBron was just stubborn pride.

Horrible, unnecessary shot.

But, you live with it because it's rare.

Westbrook, Brown should never shoot a 3....ever.

Davis probably needs to keep it rare as well.

Still, you should have won this game.

Your defense was phenomenal.

Ham has the Lakers playing great D but apparently nobody can show these clowns how to consistently shoot AND make 3-point shots. Ham is going to have to figure it out because as somebody here already suggested, the Lakers are staring at 0-6 and maybe even worse. BTW, if Westbrook can't shoot worth a damn but is playing great D, why did the Lakers trade for Beverley who is exactly like Westbrook this year? Pointless.

Mitchell cant ask for a better look
