You do know when the pressure is on and we're talking clutch-clutch, LBJ ain't gonna make that. Dude's been a frontrunner for the past 11-12 years.
Good assessment:

Yup. I used to like his game before he choked big time against the Mavs. He just looked scared taking the ball to the hoop and risk being fouled on crucial times. That’s why he passes the ball or take jumpshots.

If they also owned the Garden the team would most likely be worth over 4 billion which is insane!

He’s never going to qualify for food stamps at any point during his lifetime, but he’s also not stinking rich where he can just write out blank checks and not care. Dude had to mortgage his house just to put a deposit to buy the team. Lol. Wyc is relatively poor compared to other owners around the league. I don’t have doubts that they will pay the tax for a contender, but everyone in that ownership group needs to sign off on all deals if I’m not mistaken. Rich Gotham had to prepare a power point presentation for the group back in 2007 to explain why it would be nice to trade for KG. Lol

How are the Warriors worth more than the Lakers?


Also, anyone know how Rondo is doing in Atlanta? Haven't watched any games. What was he out with?

JFC! I get not knowing every player in the league but if you partially own a team you should know who the top guys in the league are.

maybe nothing, but I find it funny watching Kyrie come back, take at least 13 shots By mid 3rd) all while Harden is 1 -4 only. Currently losing to mighty Cleveland at time of post.

Look at this fool, taunting the fans that aren’t in the building, and then letting Collin Sexton light his ass up for 42 points. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Irving taking twice as many shots as Harden is a good sign. They're going to have to figure some things out. They may do it, but hopefully it won't be easy.

Nets lost, Pacers lost. East not exactly covering itself with glory here so far. It's early, but the West has 10 teams at .500 or better, and the East only has 5.

On the one hand, that means it won't be hard to stay in spitting distance of a top seed until we get healthy. On the other... I just hate the narrative that our conference is weak. I don't know why, but I do.

I'm not sure how acknowledging the ring he won with their organization is taunting.
