Lotta scratch.

Is scratch black slang for money?


I can tell you it's definitely white people in northern western Wisconsin slang for money.

Can't wait to see another fanbase figure out that Christian Wood is toxic.

Jokic may not like basketball but the man is incredible.

Another? Based on the posts last year it seems like our fanbase didn't figure it out.

On paper, the nuggets bench looks pretty awful outside of Braun. They are relying on a lot of unknowns.

Nuggets on pace to play their starting 5 40 minutes in game one. Might take 2 games to get Giannis to 40 minutes

Crazy Lebron is playing the way he does at (almost) 39. He could play well into his 40s at this rate.

Right. I have no doubt Lebron at 45 is better than what Tony snell was at 24

How many triple doubles would gisnnis have had if we had actual shooters instead of ones who shoit like dog ass.Jovic gets another TD why.... cause his teamates make shots.
Seems like giannis was 1 assist away on many occassions last year from a TD luke early in the 4th n yet coukd never get one.

I have no stats to back this up but I would assume Jokic has an INSANE amount more assisted two point field goals than Giannis and "shooters making shots" plays a lot less into his triple doubles than you want to believe.

Giannis plays 2 less minutes on average and while jokic does get assists from simple swing passes to open shooters he’s also a great passer to guys in the lane which Giannis struggles with. Joker is effortless on offense while Giannis needs to go 100 mph. But Giannis d is why I put him just a hair above joker

Davis with a goose egg in the second half is pretty rough.
