We are underdogs against the Clippers but even odds against Utah, who will be playing the night before. I like our chances of starting the season 3-2.

Jesus Christ. :o :jawdrop:

People really need to to develop thick skin about stuff and not be offended by nothingess.

I always try to talk about basketball and/or players. I really don't care about person, nor i should. Soul and me debated like 50000 times and we both still give +1's to each other posts often because it's not that serious. He'll bust my balls about Evan, i'll give him Payton, it's folklore :lol:
Hell, if somebody reply's to me and has great point, i will probably give him +1 even if that doesn't change my opinion. Again, it's not that serious. It's just basketball.
I had countless arguments with Skin, Ben, PennyToShaq , Rob, Knightro, MagicMatic and many others, and i still "love" them and enjoy reading their stuff, no matter do i agree with stuff that is written.
I read all your comments no matter how different our opinion about Fultz is.

I don't know anybody here in real life. We are bunch of nick names who exchange messages about topics and basically brainstorm about things we like to waste out sweeet free time on. My GF always tells me i'm wasting time. Let's be honest, she is right, we all do.

Thing is, most of us are probably nothing alike in real life, compared to posts we post here and how others envision us.



Congrats on your popularity contest winning. I think.

It humors me because I don't take anything said here seriously.

I hope the people that were doubting Suggs are starting to see his value and potential. I get that he still has a lot to work on offensively, but we cannot trade him.

Suggs with a 17.9 PER to go along with his defensive intangibles is just delicious.

I wish some of those "defensive intangibles" showed up on Russell last night.

Paolo's numbers are down thru 3 games. Only 3 games but this could be in part an adjustment to playing with a Shooting guard who uses 19% usage and shoots 53% true shooting compared to last year when he was playing with Harris who used possessions at a 12.6 usage rate and shot a 62 ts%.

This trade wasn't some conspiracy - it was just a GM wanting AD bad enough where in most people's eyes he overpaid by a long shot to get him.

he shot 10-14, so...either he scored on Suggs, or Suggs didn't guard him enough.
Is there a site that shows the def. assignments?

Suggs guarded Reaves for the most part.

He cooked Suggs too at times, one three in particular stands out. Dlo was on one last night.

Just look up the DLO highlights. It was 5 points. One where he elbowed Suggs in the chest on a drive. The other was a spot up 3, Suggs' close out was decent but Russell made the shot.

We should have a chance tonight because the Clippers traded 3 players from their rotation.
