I think you're out of your mind. I need the break. I need the diversion. My calm is completely damaged right now. I don't care if LAL wins the title. I need to see my team. I need to cheer. I need hope. I don't care what the format, or how rusty players look. Let's just go.

This is my biggest question. Will Memphis get beat out into the lottery?

Let it go...two years ago having Sacramento and our 1st round pick looked damn good...turns out it's only gonna net you the 14th pick(2019) and probably the 17th pick(2020)...lol

I was that close to the +1. Just can't do it.

But honestly, I hope you are hanging in. World has been all sorts of messed up.

Lol. How did Jeff Green and Deyonta Davis work out for you guys? Also, do you still plan on cheering for the Grizzlies after they get relocated to Seattle?

Nice to see.
Wish they were coming back at the end of June, instead of the end of July.

Was thinking the same thing, end of June would be perfect. End of July seems like a year away. :banghead:

It’s gotta be so they can cancel if cases spike before then, right? (I don’t want to jinx it so I won’t say that they’re not yet, knock on wood)

I think sans the tragedy with the virus, which is huge, the rest itself is pretty good for us. Bob Williams, Kanter, Smart and Kemba should be good to go. So, imo, we should be in a fantastic position once the season continues. I'm really excited.
Good assessment:

Jayson Tatum just needs 12 points and 17 made threes to join the guys below as the only players in NBA playoff history to record 500+ points and 50+ made threes before turning 23.

Despite reports to the contrary, Tatum IS IN FACT only 19 years old.

Also a decent shot at overtaking a bunch of guys on this list, including his teammate:

I had this game, upgraded it to high degree. Peep if you want. Larry Joe gets a standing O by the LA crowd (deservedly). Larry's da man! His mullet and tan were on point. That hair is golden, I wonder if he dyed it. I don't remember it being THAT gold during his Celtic daze. A bit of pandemic fun. Thx.
