I can confirm that my case of the olds hit suddenly and hard.

You have known me long enough to know I don't get mad watching sports. The only two times I've become emotionally unhinged were when Gallo went down and when Lebron came back from 3-1.

This is precisely my take on Mitchell. I don't think he was much different than say, Malik Beasley in summer league, but the difference since is that more has been asked of Donovan when he's pretty clearly not ready for the offensive load he's trying to handle.. Love his defense though.

If I hadn't been spoiled it would have been surreal. They were up 10 and comfortably in control at the end of the third when Mitchell took two drives and got blocked, but both plays ended up with extremely flukey outcomes (foul on a jump shot at the end of a clock and a end-of-quarter double-clutch 3 by JJ). Burks then makes a sweet move for a dunk and Plumlee gets a screening foul, Nugs screw up on D and JJ gets a dunk, Jokic misses a bunny, Burks comes down and hits a pull-up 3, Jokic gets ripped by JJ in the post, another AB 3, and then it was all downhill.

I want to be that guy who says their team always struggles when teams go on runs or gives up big leads, but I think that's the nature of basketball, obviously the better teams will be better at executing in such stretches, but we've seen it happen to the elites as well..

Opening night is the absolute worst game to draw any conclusions from--one team is going to be playing their opener and everyone is nervous/excited, and you've got crowds who are going to be more pumped than usual.

nah brow was really sick that year-- it looked like he had made the jump

edit: alvin gentry might be the problem

I think AD has probably not as good as his raw numbers, but I agree with Heels that it's more of a Gentry or perhaps Demps thing right now than anything else. Give Brad/Kerr/Popp, hell someone like Fizdale a player like AD and I think he'd be a top 5ish player.

Boogie otoh, I'm not sure how he'd be with a great coach..

Both are frauds but Boogie is a cancerous fraud

Damn, PHX team chemistry already off the charts...it can only go downhill further.

Re: Phoenix


Before the tipoff I was like "Okay okay, Bledsoe Booker Warren Chriss Tyson that's kind of neat", and then they basically get doubled at home by the Blazers

Blazers without their 2nd best player no less

That Phoenix clip is awesome. I was expecting it to be lolworthy but it's actually kind of cool.

knicks thunder oh man. game over. should be a fun spectacle for a quarter or so. see those guys all together

I can't wait to see Melo try to go HAM on his old team only for Russ to cuck him tho

Wade Baldwin sure didn't last long in MEM. I wonder if that guy has any chance of becoming a decent role player in the L.

Inb4 Melo shoots 7/21 from the field tonight.

Don't forget, no one believed in you as well Carmelo. You mother****ing pussy.

10/19/2017 the day Norman Powell became better than Derozan

Yeah but Derozen has a 140 mill contract. Just ****ing amazing

I'm sorry, Melo in that hoodie looks like a complete ****.

Tris is amazing this bulls rosters is actually a thing.

Don't be sorry tchaz homie. Melo has the maturity And the fashion sense of a 12 year old boy.

Melo gonna score 17-18 on 14 fga tonight.

The few ovations he received occurred after he made his only free throw out of five total attempts.

Contrast the crowd’s frustration with their adulation for former Grizzlies wing Tony Allen, who played 11 minutes off the bench for the Pelicans, and things are heading south for Parsons in Memphis.

“It is what it is, man. I’ll just go into every game with the mentality that it’s a road game, if that’s how it’s going to be,” Parsons added in his postgame interview with reporters.

“They can boo me, they can sarcastically cheer me, they can do whatever they want. … It’s tasteless, man, it makes no sense,” Parsons said afterwards

“The fans got to give him a break, man,” added Conley. “He’s working. I hate to see the boos so early on, that affects him"

It’s not the first or second time an entire fanbase has grown hostile towards him. Houston Rockets GM Daryl Morey, Mavericks owner Mark Cuban and their respective franchises parted with Parsons on bad terms.

LOL Parsons. Feeling NBA mean today.

Also the day CJ Miles became better than him.

Lol chandelier parsons

Sack Hornacek - no Frank/Willi in the starting 5.
