Harden is half Kidd half Marivich, but as punchable as Dunleavy.

Just finished the Rockets game... is it me or does Harden carry the ball on almost every play? I could just be a hater

I'm old. Someone fill me in on this ?s=19 or ?s=21 meme I've been seeing here the past 2 or 3 weeks

Love the ref being right there too and not calling it.

It's some part of the url for a tweet but since tweets automatically embed here and only need twitter.com plus the number tweet it is, that gets added but not embedded.

Watch on YouTube

So LeBron does one of his patented acting routines when he wasn't even touched in his face and three plus minutes are wasted as the refs look to see if Lance should be called for a flagrant foul.

The league needs to institute a rule where when the refs clearly can see that a player is simply fishing for a flagrant foul like this, that player should instead be given a technical. It's garbage that players doing this get off free of any penalty.

In hockey a player can get a 2 minute penalty and rightfully so. I don't get why the NBA allows this crap.

Probably top 7
I'd pick Embiid, Jokic, Gary Harris, Nurkic and Capela before them

But you could argue there are reasons to also pick one or two of Randle, Saric, Lavine, Hood, Clarkson, Dinwiddie, Aaron Gordon and Bogdanovic before them as well.

So indy looks good now huh?
But i was told that they were just lucky, they are a one season wonder and they don't have a chance against lebron.

Holy **** Derrick Rose has been promoted ahead of Tyus Jones. Thibs is obviously not much for analytics.

I remember an LOB podcast about 1 or 1.5 years ago where they were discussing which team's fans they would never want to be, and they both said Indiana, because "who are their young players to root for, Turner? hahaha"
Who's laughing now, huh.

He won’t sign an extension here. He wants to be a bigger household name for the caliber of player he is, so he’s trying to get in the bigger markets.

The fact that he’s basically a top 5 player in his sport sitting out of the playoffs and it isn’t talked about 24/7 on ESPN shows where he sits on the national radar.

What is that based on?

Read up on the details regarding his Jumpman shoe deal negotiations. He was getting lowballed when compared to other players with his same stats and accolades.

Regular season, sorted by FGA/36:

Rose
Wiggins
Crawford
Butler
Shabazz/KAT (TIE)

POSTSEASON (just 1 game, but lines up...)

Rose
Crawford
Wiggins
Dieng
Bjelica
Teague
Butler
Kat

Its just completely unacceptable. Players don't understand their roles. Or coaches don't understand what their roles should be. Neither is acceptable.

Still don't think it's gonna happen, but it'd be pretty funny to see Lebron get knocked out in the 1st round.

For all the crap Wiggins has taken this year - I thought he played really well last night

This Kawhi thing is really interesting. If even Pop can alienate a star into wanting out, I'm not digging our chances of keeping Giannis.

Hardens step back move have always been a travel, i dont know how long wr have been saying it, but the nba experts are like wow that is amazing.
Leflop is the reason i cant stand watching the team he plays on, especially after year 2 in miami.

The Timberbulls really needed Joakim Noah to win that game.

I can't get over how annoying the Sixer's in game announcer is. So damn bad.
