On the contrary...it might take another year for them to hit rock bottom.

Nah I think them being bad now gives them a extra heads up to change things before it goes too downhill

Warriors vs Houston game is pretty fun. I'd be happy to see them play in the playoffs. Jabari hit a beauty of a two.

GSW commentators are pretty biased I should say. I'd be annoyed if I was a Rockets fan.

Rocket fans must be more annoyed losing to GSW without Curry and Daymond

Interesting article making a case for the Elam ending to avoid the parade to the foul line at the ends of close games. Uses the recent Cavs Celtics game as example

I never thought I’d see Mobley get a 40 piece before Scottie.

This Denver team is screwed. Jokic drops 56 and they lose to the Wizards.

Crazy for them to be 11-10 with Jokic having one of the best seasons of all-time.

Check out the realgm wiretap headline "James Harden commits himself to getting more sleep" and comments section for some quality chuckles.

That franchise doesn't deserve Jokic. Most FOs could turn that opportunity into a 3 or 4 year dynasty. As it is....looks like it's gonna be one and done.

Such an easy player to build around and they can't do it.

That new book about him "why so serious" looks really interesting. Such a bizarre backstory. He's gotta be the most reluctant star athlete of this generation. I think Usain Bolt was a little like that too but not close to jokic's level.
