Yeah Rus live is awesome. You basically always know where he is. When I saw the team last year, sometimes I would have to look for KD. Russell never stops lol.
Celtics are preferring Jaylin Brown over Zeller the whole 4th.. Brown basically ices the game with a really bad double dribble getting caught up in mid air.
Boogie Cousins is a fucking piece of dogshit. He didn't really do anything deplorable in this game, but it doesn't change the fact that he's a piece of shit.
Yes Westbrook is a monster. If OKC stays in the playoff chase, it'll be him/Harden/James in the MVP conversation.
Steven Adams just got paid... 4 years $100 million Oladipo just got paid...4 years $84 million Roberson is close Gobert got paid...4 years $100 million+ What a time to be a NBA player
Steven Adams making 25mil per year. Rudy Gobert making 25mil per year. Kawhi Leonard making 17mil per year. I'll take it.
Westbrook will win it going away imo. Kawhi Leonard should get the 2nd place votes. I do not think El BJ or Harden will be close.
The Lakers paid Timofey Mozgov 15million this year. The NBA union made the NFL union look like fools imo. Scrubs in the NBA are making a fortune now. It's what scrubs make now.
We had to spend that money on somebody. Even if he can't shoot well half the time we have to attempt to try to get better. Otherwise Lillard will leave (which he's probably going to do any way in five years.) It's fun being a Blazer fan knowing your team plays in a league where every single thing is stacked against you including fate. Neil Olshey deserves more credit than any GM in the league for making his team relevant. But he won't get any, because all the little toadies who used to work for the Spurs around the league freeze him out for Exec of Year.
Looks like the Lakers may hand GSW their second loss of the season tonight. I guess you find out what kind of talent you have when you're not forced to perpetrate a d-bag's season-long ego trip.
I understand overpaying a big man, since they're hard to come by and Adams is a solid anchor. But why would you overpay a shooting guard that is a below average three ball shooter and can't create his own shot. They need to make a deal for a scorer badly. As great as Westbrook is, he's going to wear down carrying that scoring burden night in and night out especially when you think about how he gets it. Going to the hoop play after play unlike pull-up shooters. He's also the only player that can truly drive to the hoop on that squad. He's going to have an unbelievable season, but I hope they get him another scorer so that team can be a real contender. It's a pretty ugly show when he's on the bench.
Lakers looked real good. This season to me is all about developing Randle, Russell and Ingram. If Luke can get these guys to play .500 ball he deserves COY
If the NFL players union is hoping for a similarly massive bump in future salaries, the fact that TV ratings are tanking doesn't bode well.
That is true, but how much of that is the fault of the players? It's the suits at the NFL front offices who have fucked up, not the players. The Union got fleeced on the last negotiations so odds are they will get fleeced again in the next negotiatons.
