Meh. The Larry O Brien is cool and all but doesn't really compare.

Well if you are a star in the G-league and you are the primary focus on why your team wins a G-league title and then you get called up to the big leagues to sit on the bench and just be an active body in practice sessions and your team goes on to win a title. Yes the NBA title means more in the history books. But to the individual the sweat and effort you put in during your G-league run got you to that position, so it could potential mean more than winning an NBA title.
The Accession of Paul Reed is upon us !

You want it to be one way....but it's the other way.

That's like going to a 2 hour meeting and your boss comes over to you and says what were the main points?

Great Job. :lol:

I'm an idiot but Tucker seems legit to me. Probably won't be for us, but I do think he'll be an NBA player

Hes got to figure out his role, and play tough physical D. If David Nwaba can make it, he can make it.

The other team has four guys in the paint on every possession. I have no idea why the coats aren't looking for threes. At all.

Connor Johnson

Re-arrange those letters in his name and it reads out "I Am Lord Brett Brown"
