I can’t get over the Mavs intentionally making themselves worse for no reason

Just seen scores, Cavs 148 is that the highest game this year?

Legend has it Chuck has 12 eyes and 10 TVs, each one with an NBA game on.

Leave me (and Darko Rajaković) alone please. I do have four eyes though since my vision went bad. :nod:

Coach Peanuts Adelman gave Braun his buzz cut, what do y'all think about Coach's barber skills, Fam :lol:

The Van Vleet injury is such a bummer, even if Amen and Reed continue to improve their playmaking/guard play.

I still feel bad for Mavs fans. There was absolutely no reason for the move. Worse there are still delusional people trying to defend the trade.

This Warriors team isn't going anywhere. Butler and Draymond are Steph merchants until further notice.

Luka had to be traded, Fam.

Remember the terrible fires that hit California. Luka had to be traded as part of the economic recovery plan for California.

I love Cam Johnson

I still don't get how Cam only has 2 shot attempts. This is crazy.

Coach Peanuts Adelman cut Joker's hair too. He's the kind of barber who gives everyone the same haircut :lol:

They traded Luka for a much older player who showed up to camp this season at 268 lbs and has now missed the last 4 games and counting after claiming it might only be 2. This is actually better than a mediocre season for them at this point. They actually control their 2026 pick which is something they can't say again until 2031 thanks to Nico's brilliant management

They're going to instill bad habits in Flagg if they don't make more of an effort to actually try to tailor the season to developing him, though. It wasn't Giannis' rookie season that Kidd tried the failed PG experiment on him, adjust him to the NBA before you try something like that

Cooper is the kid Nico had with the fanbase to try to save the marriage

Some nice passes made by both teams in this game. GS/Den

Hartenstein is popping off tonight in Sacramento.

Who wins?
