No Appetizer but "Apéritif" or more friendly "Apéro"

Thinking bout this...

Time to have a Chimay bleu (belgian beer)

Good games you all :)

Lots of games in the East, that directly impact the standings. Pistons could end the night, ties for the 5th seed, or drop to the 7th seed.

Feels good to be even talking about it again as a Pistons fan.

Some really good games today! Looking forward watching Wemby, Jokic and potentially Zion and/or Lamelo (haven’t checked the injury reports)

Seems like nobody talks about the Pacers on this forum, I wonder how they are doing.
The Greatest of All Time debate in basketball is essentially who has the greatest basketball resume of the player who has the best highlights instead of who is the best player

Soon as I think Wemby should put his hand up and just catch the ball, he gets a lob pass and dunks It ... That's more like It.

Been waiting for a Mamu Wemby tandem.

Took too long.

Lots of BBIQ to exploit there.

People want Wemby to be Yao Ming or something but in today's game it's much better to be a next-gen Durant on offense. And he's out there becoming that at a rapid rate. Plus the shot blocking. Keep shooting bro.
