Can't think of a sequence that better demonstrated who KP is as a player.

Will be very interesting to see the next contract KP signs

Now that the Mariners have made the playoffs

The Kings are now the US sports team with the longest playoff drought

Anyone think they?ll break it this year?

interesting stat - i wonder what the odds are. 500:1? it'd be the kind of odds where you might be $20 as a lotto ticket. i don't think there's any way they make it though in the west.

Curious if the Warriors will suspend Draymond after the video leaked of him punching Poole. Green instigated it, and Poole buckled.

Dear lord that is not something you come back from.

I'd give them Bertans and Powell for Green. Maybe a SRP

wow Poole definitely wasn't expecting that... i guess who would coming from your own teammate? otherwise he should have had his guard up. that was scary... had to have knocked him out as it looked like he was sliding down.

Per Bleacher Report:

"James Harden says he hasn't received proper credit for his selflessness after signing a team-friendly deal with the Sixers"

What trash Poole was talking to Green about****...

As Green shot free throws at the end of one practice,
Poole told Green to "stop pissing" down his leg. Green
air-balled the free throw, and the warriors had to run
sprints.
During a Monday scrimmage, Poole had jokingly
asked why Draymond's twitter handle was
'MoneyGreen' if Green was "going to be broke and in
Sacramento" after this season. Green took exception to
the banter, hurling a ball in the direction of Poole,
which ultimately struck a child of one of the members of
the training staff.
The final straw appeared to come Wednesday when
Poole asked Green what he did whenever an attractive
female entered the gym at MSU. "Did they like the
triple singles- or was it the screen setting?"

**** Welp - turns out this info was wrong - so sorry - I had a questionable source.

So Draymond can dish out trash talk, but can?t take it when someone spits it back in his face?

Lakers testing out Westbrook off the bench in their last preseason. Honestly the best usage of that roster, but damned if I think RW will be fully accepting of this role.

Welp, so much for Schroder.

Westbrook already injured

EricaLubarsky · 10-14-2022, 11:39 PM

Marcus Smart too.

Hockey arena play leads to puddles. Boston is dangerous.

EricaLubarsky · 10-15-2022, 02:55 PM

LiAngelo Ball waived

BPo001 · 10-16-2022, 11:58 AM

Jordan Poole and Wiggins both signed big deals to remain with the Warriors.

Yet another Hornet arrested

New jailblazers?

Looks like Lebron decided to take his knee sleeves off his calves after the 1st quarter.

JustJay · 10-22-2022, 10:38 PM

Sixers fans have to be a bit nervous starting 0-3.

EricaLubarsky · 10-23-2022, 05:11 PM

Lakers 0-3

EricaLubarsky · 10-23-2022, 06:23 PM

Lakers up 98-90. Westbrook enters the game and the Blazers go on a 16-6 run to win it

Jeanie Buss chose poorly. Shoulda pulled the trigger for Hield/Turner.

Just think though, they could be the worst team in the league in 2027 and 2029, those could be top 5 picks. Does Hield/Turner put them over the top?

I can see why Lebron would want them to do it, he'll be long retired by then. But if I'm the Lakers, I'd pass too.

Flip side is their pick this year goes to NO. Which could mean Wemby. That trade for Davis is swinging in a very favorable direction for NO.

Over the top? Maybe not...but wayyyyy closer to it? Easy.

I don't think that offer was ever truly there. If so, Buss should be stripped of any duties that involve running any part of the basketball side. I'm sure she can be of value, but running this roster out there when you could have improved it is malpractice.

Turner and Hield offer FAR more than Westbrook. That far in the future picks don't matter when you have LeBron James on his last gasp. Both guys from the Pacers provide shooting and spacing which is the Lakers biggest weakness right now. Added bonus of allowing AD to take a break from defending other bigs, less wear and tear, and a formidable replacement for the inevitable injury for AD.
