So are the Celtics the biggest threat to our title hopes? I expect this Warriors team to get better but still..

We got a lifetime of them, but it was in the pre-social media era, when the team was irrelevant. Bobby punching the hooker, Joe Smith in the hotel room (allegedly), Capt. Jack having rave parties in every city the night before games. TJ being in the drug bust, etc.

So as someone who has visited the board daily for ages -- long before I signed up for an account, back to the days of the pizza party and the scuttlebutt around how Mo Williams called out Bogut in the locker room -- can I ask what (allegedly) happened with Joe Smith in the hotel room? Don't want to derail the thread, but I'm so curious and can't recall this one for the life of me.

Definitely not trying to be “pro-Kyrie” by any means, BUT…let the dude look stupid and backwards? That’s his right…right?

Check out the General Board. Waves of idiots.

A lot or people out there hate Jewish people. It's a sad part of the world we live in and instances like this tend to bring the worst elements of society out of the woodwork.

Ok, honest question here, and maybe one that's more favorable to MD & PP's blood pressure.

If the Spurs org - sounds like the GM, but I imagine there may not be sole culpability - legitimately didn't tell Pop about any of this Josh Primo stuff to try and keep him from making a big deal about it, any chance he just up and quits? He's about to be 74 and that team is going nowhere.

I think it's a foregone conclusion that they fire the GM, but I don't think that necessarily will satisfy Pop if he also legitimately didn't know.

Absolutely has the right to look stupid and backwards. The Nets absolutely have the right to decide they don't want to be associated with such foolishness.

If I said any of his ****, I'd lose my job pronto. Doesn't mean I couldn't say it.

Wiseman is legit terrible. Like they can’t play the dude, he just tanks lineups.

Kyrie should be contractually obligated to answer all media questions with “both teams played hard” and to not have any public social media accounts.

Aaron Gordon just had a putback dunk that was a very exciting play.

Celtics definitely. It's a year or two early for the Cavs. Suns still talented. And the Warriors will be fine come April.

Lakers it is.

Antonio Brown to the Patriots vibes

Suggs is hooping right now.

MikeIsGood · Post #734 » by **MikeIsGood** » Fri Nov 4, 2022 1:35 am

Holy ****, Suggs is dominating this game. If I were a Magic fan I'd be legit excited about the team. Bad enough this year to get another high pick in a good draft, and enough talent to play some real good games and show your talent.

Jalen Suggs has been electric here on both ends, took this game over late

It never works out for raw young players who get injured early. The situation he's in doesn't help anything either but he just doesn't have it.

Warriors lose their 4th straight

Let's go HAMMOND! All you need is maybe a George Hill for Cole Anthony deal to get you that 8th seed!
