Gay pride night. Some of it is rather over the top.


I suppose the bottom line is, you have to cater to your clientele. That ain't my world, but I have grown to not get bothered by things like that anymore.

Apparently even the halftime show is required to tank

Morant is not a good outside shooter, but I kind of agree otherwise.

He is not a good outside shooter yet, but by all accounts he has good mechanics. He needs more repetitions. He is an incredible floor general, though.

The Dunn experiment has been a disaster this year. He has regressed to his rookie season. He can't shoot and he run a play without turning it over.

When Zach is running the team, Dunn's defender sags off the three-point line to crowd the paint.

Looks like teams are just practicing, nothing of the intensity from watching College games.

Agreed, it feels almost like "elite defender" is just a state of mind at this point unless you're blocking shots or getting clean steals

Players like Dunn have a plummeting value in today's NBA

It is worse now, tbh. The new no defense nba is unwatchable

nice first quarter. For the Bulls anyway. Every game shows how much "The core" was never anything to care about.

59 posts in a GT? Is this the Pelicans forum or something?
