New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

Did you see the foul by Embiid on Walker as he was going to the basket.Walker looked like something that fell out Embiid's ear. Embiid looked like he was 2 feet taller and weighed 200 pounds more than Walker

Missed that part, Steve. Hope Walker is fine. Good win by the C's. 2 more to go for this series.

I've been following the press regarding the Blazers and yes while they are fawning over them, I don't understand why they seem surprised. They are hung up on the Blazers being a lowly "8th seed". Have they forgotten that a depleted Blazers ended up the second most accomplished team in the West last year? They took out a superstar laden Thunder and the top seeded Nuggets before gassing out and being swept by the Warriors. This is not just a healthy Blazers, its now healthy front court of Nurk and Collins has been shored up with Hassan and Trent and has come of age while Melo seems not prime but at least 3 years younger LOL. It is arguably a complete team no longer just the DDolla-CJ show. Wake up Vogel. You've got 7 of your 8 guards available to play. If it means using all of them in nitrous oxide mode to harass Dame and CJ for 48 minutes, do it. Forget hoping your shooting will improve. Take theirs away by funneling their guards. You own the interior.

Lakers can't figure it out Jack

LeBron can get a triple double every game and they'll still lose unless Vogel get's wise as you say and figures a way to put a lid on those two (which I think is impossible)

Watching Dallas Clippers, the Mavs started red hot and played an excellent 1st half and Clipps played a good game but are only trailing 61-56 at the half. Doncic and Porzingis are playing great and Boba also played really well. The Mavs need to win this one

Watching Boba slam dunk. His feet don't even leave the floor nor do his shoulders elevate. He just lifts his arm and stuffs it

The Mavs are throwing everything at the Clipp but still cannot pull away.

a much deserved win tonight by the Mavs who found a way to finally pull ahead and win 127-114

Clipps had bursts of greatness and Kawhi made every move to the basket look simple
Doncic was in foul trouble but still scored a bunch giving him a total of 70 points in his first 2 playoff games putting him ahead of Kareem who had 69

He does have large ears...I think the guy can stuff the ball standing with his feet flat on the court.
I love the interview wherein when asked, he told Barkley - hey yeah, I can kick Keannu's ass in real life. :D

The nice thing about this no fans set up is that little known names get to shine and show some spunk when given time, it's like they're going through a draft combine or summer league to show their wares. Like I just saw this Trey Burke play like hell last night, first time to even know his name, and found out that he is a 7 year veteran and journey man. These non brand names are playing without pressure and are like in a pickup ball backyard, remember Uncle Drew, I mean the character and not the flat earther. :D
 
Just stumbled into this stat. The Blazers have the next 4 years covered. And they have this season's top team salary.

I still contend that the Lakers are in deep trouble especially if they lose again tonight. The reality is that neither the Bucks or the Lakers look anywhere near a title contending team. The Lakers have shown that they are just too top heavy relying on their dynamic duo to get it done. The Lakers have time and again shown in Orlando that they lack depth on the bench which comes back to the fact that they traded their entire young team to the Pels along with future 1st round draft picks that should keep them as a mediocre team for years until they finally get rid of James

Should the Lakers muster the power to beat the Blazers, unless a miracle happens I can't see them winning 16 games and I also feel the same about Milwaukee

Watching the Clippers lose yesterday to the Mavs demonstrated how deep they are. They just seemed to be toying with the Mavs and could score at will. It was just the Mavs were superb last night
For me, I see a Toronto Clippers final which should be a great series if the chips fall that way. If so I would love to see a Kawhi-less Raptors team beat the Clipps for the final retribution and proof that the Raptors are just as good winning without him

I also thought the Mavs contained him better last night even though he scored over 30 points
