Wow. I had to listen to it a few times to get it.

i lsitened to it a bunch of times and still can't make out exactly what he's saying?

nice alley oop inside as Fisher wants to talk to his "retar" team

there's no way he actually says (Please Use More Appropriate Word)… i thought maybe he said "entire."

He might have the quickest first step for a non point guard since Michael Jordan. Might be faster than peak Vince Carter, if not it's at equal level.

Gonna be nice when Wiggins and Bruno are our starting wing duo in a few years.

Ok, you wanted to revisit this in a few games. Beat the Cavs without needing a miracle, and 4-0 over the last week. Cavs 0-4 over the last week. You still think a stacked Heat team beating a starting lineup with Calderon, Bargnani, and JJ in it is relevant to where these teams stand now?

It was a good win no doubt. What is relevant at the end of the day is what happens in the playoffs with the Cavs. The Cavs look like a mess and I thought their coach was a lot better than he has shown. I saw multiple "experts" say how good he is but I have seen nothing.

I do think that LeBron is clearly off and if he were healthy it would be much more difficult. Not sure if it is fatigue or what but he is a very different player compared to the past few years. Looking forward to the next few games and hope the Raptors can keep this up.

Exactly when was the last time Cleveland was in the playoffs?
Right last time LBJ was in Cleveland and he isn't as good a player now/
Chicago has made the playoffs but basically 1st round fodder isn't that the definition of a treadmill team.

Man he covers so much ground with that step, too; and with his spin move. That move in the post at the 50 second mark was Al Jefferson-esque. Rough night for the Cavs.

Whats up with Nik Stauskas... Haven't seen him play.

[UcanUwill]

GSW dodged the bullet by not trading for Love IMO. Most overrates statpadder in the league, guy was never a superstar.

With Durant off the bench...

Slow down partner!!

Whats up with Nik Stauskas... Haven't seen him play.

Ben Mclemore started playing up to his potential and has been a lights out shooter. They aren't a good fit for playing together, so Stauskas doesn't get much action. When he has played he hasn't looked all that great, but way too early and way too little playing time to worry about him yet.

It sure sounds like "(Please Use More Appropriate Word)" to me! Just too many syllables for "entire"!

This why owners should not interfere with a GMs job he has no idea what the **** is going on. Stauskas and mclemore play the same position, unless you were going to trade one of them there is no point in drafting redundancy unless this was some kind of generational player. Drafting payton would have made the most sense since they just lost Isiah thomas.

His jumpshot is a lot farther along then people said .... from what I've seen he's got 3 point range it will only improve with more reps .... but he just needs to solve his ball handling and he's gonna be a beast

[Young_Buc]

Much love to fredricklove (rip) but he was dead wrong about parker a) Not being a power forward b) being better than Wiggins. It's early but Wiggins looks similar to Anthony Davis did in his rookie season. Raw but mega star potential is definitely there.

Not sure who's watching the Grizzlies vs Clips.. I love how Gasol is owning them, I want the grizz to destroy the clippers.

Gasol is definitely an MVP candidate

[Scarface844]

Grizzlies always own the Clippers ever since the Clippers beat them in the playoffs. They're a tough matchup for them. Clips always seem afraid when they play the Grizzlies.

The flopping, complaining style doesn't work against a tough team like the Grizzlies. Marc Gasol is finally being more aggressive on offense. He's always had the ability to score 20+ PPG but he's always been passive up until this season.

Listen to it with headphones, he definitely said it.

You can make out the letter D so he didn't say entire.

[Mister Ze]

The Grizzlies play a lot better than what they look like on paper.

They don't necessarily have a "go-to" player at the wing yet are still the number 1 team in the NBA.
