KD ruined all the interesting narratives that were building up by joining GS.

The NBA was at its best since the MJ days in 2015 and 2016.

Ja should thrive on negativity I won’t be surprised if he has a strong game after this one.

I recall that his father’s (one of the best basketball dads imo) way of motivating him was to trash talk Ja and to call him overrated.

I blame Kelly Olynyk

He doesn't rip Love's arm out if his socket in the first round in 2015, the Cavs likely win game 1 of the finals during regulation, Kyrie never gets his knee injured, and Cavs win

Then GS comes back for revenge the next year, wins 73 games and takes the title, KD can't use the excuse they didn't win as to why it wasn't cheap, so he either stays in OKC or goes somewhere else, Cavs-Warriors 2017 becomes the rubber match

That or if CP3 and the players' union agreed to the gradual salary cap increase along with scaling salaries in the CBA negotiations instead of lump sum, meaning GS wouldn't have been able to afford KD

So I blame Kelly Olynyk and Chris Paul.
BaF Lakers:

Darius Garland/Cory Joseph
Klay Thompson/Shaedon Sharpe
Keldon Johnson/De'Andre Hunter
Evan Mobley/Tari Eason
Nic Claxton/Draymond Green

Bench: Leonard Miller, Jett Howard, Markquis Nowell, Kennedy Chandler, Day'Ron Sharpe

These are the moments I wished Steven Adams marched into the crowd, dragged those fans onto the court by their hair and Rock Bottom'd them one by one onto the hardwood.

If this was about a Knicks player, I'd suspect Berman.

But this source seems really sketchy. Oh well, there go my chances with Ayesha!

Shumpert and Bootleg Kev interview type fire.
Some nice tidbits about the Knicks team during the interview and how Phil Jackson messed up a good thing for nothing. Lol

Made me miss and appreciate those few years.

IT & THT combine for 2-24 shooting ...

IT looked really bad too, hated to see it.

Also just noticed that Elf was the only Suns player not to see the court. Monty decided that a 27 year old rookie named Ish Wainright was more deserving of dumpster time.
