I feel the same about Cleveland, they’ll inevitably be there at the year end. Really just hope my Blazers get a few more of these close games to go their way. I like what we have with Nurkic and McCollum complementing Dame well. Just get a bit more out of the youth and a few newbies, see what comes of the year.

I think it is a real problem when your big 3 are comprised of all guys who need the ball a whole lot and none are particularly efficient. Westbrook is amazing and a true superstar, but they would have been better off adding just one high usage guy and some 3 and d guys.

I blame Melo. Paul George was an ace addition.

There's clearly a downside to having all three together. Still optimistic they'll figure something out. I don't know what exactly. My basketball IQ is pretty low.

The "Dream Team" was totally godawful at first, but got their shit together. There's hope, absolutely.

Until yesterday, seems to me that PG was the one having trouble fitting in. They've got some work to do to keep him away from the Lakers next summer.

Not sure who the co-commentator is on the Celtics Raptors game but he sounds like a drunk Fred Flintstone.

Manute Bol has a five-star recruit son named Bol. His name is Bol Bol. I can't fucking wait for the Joel Embiid vs. Bol Bol rivalry in a few years.

Bol Bol. Already a better player than Alonzo Ball.

Surprised J-Mac hasn't stopped by to gloat about Boston. He would certainly be justified.

I came in here to just do that. I have only been able to watch two games so far.

Your one gimme this year and you missed it? Best 100-hard nearly pick six I’ve ever seen.
