Yea. But I don't mind some swagger. Just don't get too cocky kid.

Also a lot of shit talking about the Clips considering they don't have their best player.
Leonard is fragile. I don't think you can call a player you can't count on, your best player. That's like the Lakers counting on AD. It makes no sense. The best players stay healthy.

When he's not broken he's their best player

But I do agree it becomes a sliding scale when you can't play much

Yep....that is not a game to be without Allen. Need him on their centers so Mobley (and not LM or Stevens) can D up more on KD. Not that he could stop him, but better chance than the others.

Okoro got exposed the other night. If I'm cleveland I move him as opposed to Sexton (granted Sexton much more expensive)

May have officially happened last night
it's been trending that way. I think most are aware it needs to go

Wolves have stated only two untouchables are ant and towns...although, I'm not 100% opposed to moving towns if the deal is right, but I have hard time seeing a deal I'd consider "right"

Wolves have a really nice supporting cast. If they could flip KAT for a haul...

I don't like anything about his personality, disposition, anything. He's not a winner. He's got all the talent...and none of the X factor.

Because he missed a few open 3s in one game? I mean, they took him out and sill lost pretty easily. In their last game against the Nets he spent a lot of time on Kyrie and Kyrie had an awful shooting night.

That said, sure, I'd be open to moving him in the right deal.

Because he wouldn't take the shot and he was isolated on that . When he did...he missed. But JD pulled him...13 minutes

Props to Nash identifying it.

Only officially happens once opposing teams start treating him that way.

I think the Clips game plan to focus on KAT is the right move, they just didn’t have enough offense to get the W.

They wanted Mecca to see a game in Phoenix

lol

Folks gotta quit killing the TimberPups. I thought that celebration was fun.
Me too.

But, Kat does get one L.

I didn't realize he wifed up the chick who was besties with Kylie Jenner and cheated with her sister's baby daddy, Tristan Thompson.

She also got smashed by James Harden and Devin Booker.

what shot wouldn't he take? Props to Nash for allowing open shots to a decent shooter? I mean, Okoro does need to knock them down but that was comedy gold right there my friend.

It was 1 game.

I think @Mecca should go watch the Suns and Pelicans as many times as she can.

They could definitely package him in a deal but for who is the question. They need an upgrade at wing. He is still easily their best perimeter defender other than Stevens off the bench but he did see improvement this season. Dude has so much talent but can't be consistent. Only his 2nd year but would hope for a big jump offensively in year 3, being more aggressive and improving his shot even more.

Nope....he's a young kid with a tremendous work ethic who has greatly improved his overall shooting, 3 point shooting AND FTs. His O and D rating per 100 possessions has also improved a great deal. Probably needs to be more aggressive on O but likely doing what was asked most of the season as JB stuck with him.

and he missed a few shots.
