Looking at how max Christie is playing rn and I get more mad that Ham had him stapled to the bench for the entire year. We didn’t get any development out of Christie last year smh.

Also, bronny been hooping in the g league

Aye that game winner was hard

 

[HOU$TON]

Same thing that happened last season before he was finally shut down smh

Didn’t even put it together that was Kendall’s pops. Did all that work and missed vacations only to still have huge holes in his game

Those tweets reminded me of a situation that happened to the feeder high school that my junior high I coach at feeds into.

One of my best players I had back in ‘21 was their starting guard on varsity last season. Might one of if not the best player on that team. His parents took him out of town on vacation over the holidays and didn’t give him a choice in the matter. It’s the holidays/family time, I get it. Missed the two weeks they weee out of school, came back and coach pretty much ran him off the team. Just ridiculous nonsense. They could have really used him this season, which would be his senior year.

I’ve watched a number of Blazers games this season (including parts of the last two) and, IMO, Scoot really has improved. He seems to figured out better what his effective spots on the floor are, when to speed up/slow down and understand defensive positioning better. I still don’t see all-star with him, but I do think there’s a place for him in the NBA as a solid rotation player.

I hope he continues to get better because I felt like a lot of people were a little too gleeful about throwing the “bust” label on him.

Just seen a clip from that vile *** 'discussion' on Angel Reese and they really goofed/miscalculated having that clown on

Now the shows gonna be fairly or unfairly associated with that rhetoric and I doubt they'll be getting any WNBA players or ex-pros on in the future.

They already are OD misogynistic and uninformed talking about the W and women’s basketball in general. But yea having him on there was a terrible choice.

Would've preferred the home run for Brandon Ingram (provided he was healthy), but this is a fine trade for a marginalized player that they didn't want to re-sign in the offseason.

[Blue Mamba]

Lmao that’s a dumb trade. Won’t make the Lakers any better

 

[addict4sneakers]

I feel for ya lakers fans god damn.

Bron really gotta ask for a trade so they can just rebuild

 

[spiderjericho]

Thank you for sharing the why. On the surface it didn’t make sense.

 

[B Sox]

I mean they desperately needed a wing that could play defense so it makes sense in that regard.

Huh?

I talk **** about Rob Pelinka all day but this was a great move. Got DFS without giving up a 1st

Maybe not moving the needle too much, but great GM work regardless

 

[B Sox]

Brooklyn getting DLo back is hilarious.
