I'm definitely all aboard the Joe Ingles bandwagon.

one of our producers at the TV station is a huge Boston fan. that's why I showed up to the Celtics - Jazz game with a Joe Ingles jersey and proceeded to call the game while wearing it.

he definitely got JINGLED.

coolest player in the league.

Have you always shot your free throws Rick Barry style?

I have no other rebuttal than my non-verifiable claims that I actually am pretty good at Rick Barry granny style free throws.

You beat me to that. Vonleh looks like he is actually slowly turning into an NBA player.

I guess we know why Dwight's been weirding out locker rooms everywhere he goes...

So Dwight...

I'm not into judging personal choices, but that's a tough situation.

So what exactly is the Dwight situation? I'm having a hard time finding a reliable article. Sounds like he was possibly dating a transgender woman who then outed him for being gay and going to transgender sex orgies. And then Dwight threatened the transgender woman.

Kinda puzzled when i see some suggesting to trade Batum for him (especially when you consider his contract & other stats & defense..).

That's pretty much the gist of it. The accuser said that either Dwight or his pastor put a hit out on the accuser and supposedly has recorded conversations between the accuser and Dwight. The accuser also conveniently has a book out about banging celebs, for what it's worth.

Twitter had a field day considering Dwight "inadvertently" grabbed a teammate's junk in the action of sitting down on the bench and b/c Dwight once missed a game due to an injured gluteus muscle. :lol:

Batum and Marv could go 1 for 30 one night, the difference being that Marv took 29 of the shots.

Good deal for the Cavs, adding picks and expirings for Korver. They can probably get something similar for Love, a shorter contract(s) + picks (not a first though). They can turn Burks expiring into yet more assets.

I still think that there are decent odds that Love ends up being traded here.

Judging by some of the comments on twitter its astounding how homophobic people still are while completely ignoring the alleged threats him and his team made. Absolutely pathetic.

I wouldn't mind that. His contract isn't exactly a killer. Just needs to stay healthy.
