Jamal Murray has a gigantic set of Canadian nuts...

Osis I'll make it easy for you, it'll be something with Jamal in honor of him outplaying the guy he's going to eclipse in the next couple years.

#1 - about time Kidd was fired given the stuff he's been saying. sounds like Giannis liked him a lot though.

#2 - what the heck is this about Cav players calling KLove out? what a bunch of suckers... KLove has been very very good this year.

K Love the easy target I'd be surprised if he's on Cavs next year.

Because Lueser has no control of his Lebron's team.

It really seems like Lebron doesn't like him for some reason.

There's been so many of those passive fit-in tweets and it always felt like it was Lebron + Kyrie + Team rather than a big-3 which would be more appropriate.

And you can sort of read it on the court too. Seems like Lebron yells at KLove the most and doesn't give him daps when he's hot either.

Shame because Love has been a professional this whole time but this if true is just BS.

Also really loving the CP3 addition to the Rockets. This Rocket team looks now like the perfect place for him to fit in without disrupting anything and his leadership looks good for the rest of the team too.

Can Ariza guard Durant?

No, Ariza has faded on D.

Mbah best guy to throw on Durant on that team easily imo.

Lebron great but kinda feels like after 4 years its doomed to blow up.

The probem I have with that is that he just doesn't seem comfortable shooting high-volume three pointers. His stats this year aren't bad .391% on 2.9 3PA but there's been several times this year where he gets an open luck and he isn't willing to shoot it and there's no room for that on the Rocket team. They're really at their best when everyone is bombing it out.

Kevin Love, Channing Frye, Kyle Korver

For

DeAndre Jordan, Lou Williams, and Teodosic

?

lol at all these headlines,

Kawhi unhappy
KLove target on his back
Team doesn't like John Wall
Lillard unhappy
Giannis unhappy

Can we get some trades or someone get caught in a scandal or something so there can be some real stores this **** is so boring, media reaching hard.

I do expect Luc's shooting to cool off a little bit but he is shooting 20% from the corners and 50% from the wing. He makes the overwhelming majority of his 3s on the wing and 60% of his attempts are from the wing which I find confusing because I remember the very first game or two Harden told him to "get in his spot" and pointed to the left corner. Idk pj tucker has like the opposite split 40% wing 60% corner attempts.

Eric Gordon has been like Jamal Crawford all season I expect a little more consistency out of him. Ryno also shooting like 31% from 3 past 2 months expect that to go up.

It's also kind of felt like Lebron is freezing him out a lot of times. The Indiana series is the only time Lebron kept feeding him the ball vs a mismatch and that's because he wanted to embarrass Lance Stephenson.

So Love was in the locker room puking while the Cavs got 148 hung on them ==> gets called out in a meeting and it's leaked to Woj

Derrick Rose leaves the team for months because he's sad about his hurt ankle ===> take your time, we understand

Would be cool to see Stackhouse get a HC job, would miss him on the 905 though. Won the Dleague championship with much of the current Raptors bench last year and the team had 0 players left on the team this year save for Bruno Caboclo and 0 2nd round picks as well. So the Raptors got a bunch of walk ons and they started out 5-10 which was probably better than expected. Since then they have gone 12-2 with the same roster that is mostly devoid of talent.

Odd hearing that Giannis is so upset about Kidd's firing.

In the meantime, there are these tidbits:





If mild-mannered Brogdon is throwing shade, he must have REALLY hated Kidd.

Didn't knew tanking was that hard.

Utah can't slide in the bottom 8 despite losing almost every game since early december.

You know... and I know... exactly why Kevin Love got called out in that meeting. /bomani

Stackhouse sounded pretty awesome as a coach in the Lowe Post interview he did earlier in the season. His philosophy on basketball as a coach seems like a complete 180 from how he played, which he freely admits. If you guys ever get bored and need to kill an hour I suggest looking it up.
