50 years and Blaha still doesn’t know what a windmill is. Love George anyway.

What's weird is he turned his ankle then proceeded to favor the opposite foot. Had to rewatch a few times to make sure I was seeing it properly. I still may have seen it wrong though?

The Heat may have to consider a higher pickup point for Kat.

The level of physicality the refs are allowing actually benefits the Pistons. They just need to drop the theatrics, because that only invites the refs to dial the physicality back.

Just start Sheppard already. I don't know if he's ready, but I know I am.

I love Gobert so much. Rudy is like the only guy whose eye test says he sucks but it's completely wrong unfortunately :lol:

This Knicks team has so many offensive weapons. I mean they put up the same amount of points in a half than the great 90s Knicks teams scored in a full game.

That was my first thought was well. He calls windmills double pumps, and tomahawks windmills. But yeah, Blaha for life, he gets a pass :lol:.

The way Durant carries the ball looks like a game from the 80's or 90's where they couldn't animate the whole dribbles.
