Victor vs. IrishHand was the GOAT tz fued.

Does IH actually do stuff? Iirc he was like a scorebook guy or something and became friendly with BC and then brought in kbfc who was the actual analytical talent.

Has there ever been an effort to show what exactly defines a "jump shooting team" other than "well that's what it looks like to me"? Like a % of possessions ending in 15+ ft shots or whatever. Doesn't seem that hard but I keep hearing that term and it seems like a stubborn eye test relic.

Carmelo was asked if he understands management's vision for the future of the team. I'm paraphrasing, but he essentially said that he didn't

lololol

what other response is there really?

Draymond kicking dudes again. Went after Blake this time. He has serious little man syndrome for a 6'8" guy.

Joshua Harris made that trade happen

I've been telling my 76ers fans that Philly should rehire Hinkie.

If I was Embiid I'm putting a lot of pressure on ownership to do this.

That was not ideal. Malone is now 0-5 vs his former team.

2 more cracks this year though, I think 2-5 is within reach!

Hopefully Jokic can manage to score more than 4 points next time.

His WOAT defense allowed friggin Willie Cauley-Stein to score 29 points.

WCS has shown a lot the last month. Thought someone would fleece the Kings and get him for nothing and he'd ball out somewhere but being free'd there works for him too.

Not going to happen apparently http://clutchpoints.com/andrew-bogut...ides-moved-on/

Draymond to Pierce: "Chasing that farewell tour. They don't love you like that...you thought you was Kobe!"

Seems pretty harsh

Embiid also is apparently out indefinitely and the Sixers lied about his injury? What a ****ing trash fire of an organization

The 76ers are a dumpster fire, and it's a joke that Joshua Harris has not been forced to sell. His actions since ownership are worse than the entirety of the Donald Sterling Clippers era
