Klay would 100 percent retire before playing for Orlando.

There's nothing to say in response.

Humble yourself. Accept it. And move on.

Pippens 7ppg was a real game changer His defense and teaching MJ how to win were meaningful contributions, yes. That's why Jordan failed in his first post-Pippen season to even make the playoffs...he couldn't rely on Pippen's winning and leadership attributes. Even *WITH* those things in his favor,...

Luka is obviously better than Michael Jordan. Even by boomer analysis, Luka going to the Finals with non-elite supporting talent is so far beyond anything Jordan accomplished with non-elite supporting talent it's not even funny. And don't even attempt to say Luka plays with uber talent. The Mavs wer...

The only thing that makes the Celtics run to the Finals a little anti-norm is not having a strong number two in the East. But the East was also relatively robust towards the mid-back of playoff teams, which hasn't always been the case. Their first two matchups were absolutely on par or better to his...

The top 2 for Dallas are better than the top 2 for Boston, although not crazily so. But Boston is definitely deeper. If Tatum/Brown cancel out Luka/Kyrie, Boston should definitely win. Dallas is peaking at the perfect time though...if that ends up being the Finals, it should be a better one than one...

Strictly because my dad was a Larry Bird Celtics fan. I remember in 1994, I had to buy school supplies for the year, and we had maybe seven subjects, and one of the things we had to provide was a folder for every subject. K-Mart (?) had folders that were branded with different superstar basketball p...

Neuroscience is kind of a shit field, to be honest.

Yeah...you got to be in the title club before I'm entertaining that, even for peak value talks. The league is loaded with talent now, but no era's Larry Bird++ fails to win *a* title. Or at least it's going to be preciously rare, like a universe where KG stayed in Minnesota. Dallas has supporting ta...

Bettering your kids educational environment isn't worth eating Papa Johns. But lesson learned, right?

The only things there that are tolerable are the cheese sticks, provided you get them hot and fresh, and the jalapeno papa bites (poppers).

I'm pretty sure actual gamecocks would beat the Fever at basketball right now

Pretty close approximation to 80s/90s NBA offenses.

On a scale of 1 to 10 bushie... do you have trouble following instructions, or trouble comprehending what you read, or both? Is this where you tell me I have to pretend Zappa was a musical genius (despite being passed up by literally tens of thousands of no-name modern artists, objectively speaking...

Are you going to enjoy your Coors at dinner tonight, TDK?

If you remember that Eddie Murphy bit where his mother cooks him a gourmet (ghetto style) hamburger, but his mind as a child kept snapping back to using McDonald's as the reference point for what a good burger is. It's sort of like that, where propaganda and childish thinking anchors someone to a re...

You have to play 65 games to be on All-NBA teams.

Obviously his per-game/minute performance merited first team selection (if it had been extended to 65+ games).

You’re right that I was being harsh but LeBron 26/7/8 on 51/41/75 in 71 games Kawhi 24/6/4 on 53/42/86 in 68 games So because the clippers won 4 more games while having PG, Harden, and Westbrook means more than out producing Kawhi and playing in more games? If team record is a big deciding factor f...

Kawhi and Lebron were relatively close by the numbers and EPM, and the Clippers had a better record and somewhat higher seeding. That doesn't strike me as egregious. I would guess having two Lakers on the 2nd team All-NBA would felt weird to the voters, given the Lakers record overall (even if there...
