By Jeff-DSA Go To PostWell done and hillarious.
Probably only of interest to Pels fans, but an assistant coach is answering questions on twitter from fans right now. Some are usual coach speak, a few are a bit more revealing:
Man, college basketball is trash. At its highest level, it's like a clown show.
I would rather watch Suns-Nets.

No idea why people watch that crap. Also no idea why people are fans of a college. That's weird as hell.
By Mariosalic Go To PostNo idea why people watch that crap. Also no idea why people are fans of a college. That's weird as hell.but being fans of a random professional franchise is totally normal? Alumni being a fan of their college makes even more sense imo
Getting some friends together and attending games when you go to the college is a great social activity, and it tends to instill a fandom in you.
I didn’t actually care too much about UCLA football until I went to some games at the Rose Bowl. Then I was all about it.

By diehard Go To Postbut being fans of a random professional franchise is totally normal? Alumni being a fan of their college makes even more sense imoI wouldn't say MORE sense. NBA Basketball is a good entertainment product (in general, there are certainly games not worth being broadcast at all).
I can see why some alumni would feel an attachment given the massive college sports thing in america. But that seems relatively particular to America, not really seen elsewhere in the world.
By DY_nasty Go To PostHigh school sports are more hype than college tbhThe cross-town, family rivalries...
By diehard Go To Postbut being fans of a random professional franchise is totally normal? Alumni being a fan of their college makes even more sense imoYou’re watching the best of the best play, no that’s not weird. In college you’re watching doctors and white collar employees trying to play basketball
Let’s be real, 90% of college fans aren’t alumni, or did people go to USC for the fall semester and then Duke for the spring semester?
i didn't realize why people hated college basketball until i quit watching UNC so much and started watching other teams. abominations, all of them.
our offense might be dated (shoutout to my grandma being able to call out our plays), but it's damn entertaining.
now if only Roy liked coaching in games.

Yeah, I don't watch college basketball. I watch Duke.

I...never thought of it like that until just now lmao
By s y Go To PostAll college ball is terrible. All of it. Give me Suns/grizzlies any time.
It's all terrible and the simple fact that it exists is disgusting.
Some dude at the ringer (nvm was a contributor to a bunch of sports sites) was trying to say the Mavs sabotaged Nerlens season by not giving him money (they offered more than anybody during free agency)
Y'know maybe sometimes a guy just sucks.

Cleveland tonight, Boston tomorrow night. And Lowry was in Texas last night watching Villanova.
SY is gonna eat these next couple of days.
There are still some diehards clinging to hope for those Sixer busts. Okafor, Nerlens, MCW, it's kind of amazing how many of them Hinkie managed to get at the top of the draft in 4 years.

By Jeff-DSA Go To PostThibs seems like he would be a fantastic cult leader.That’s a faction quest in 2K19.
In the latest road trippin' podcast, Trey Lyles says he didn't like playing in Utah because he had to practice.
Thabo getting suspended for 5 games for smoking weed while he's recovering from a major injury is >_>
Come on.
Like, maybe this specific suspension doesn't hurt anyone, but literally who does it help?

He's a paid athlete. It's a banned substance. You're still an employee. Rules still apply.
And also a case of one exception leads to another etc.
You're not wrong, it doesn't help nor hurt anyone this particular time though.
So NBA weed thing is 3 times before suspension. Read it on Twitter. Apparently first time you get some counseling, 2nd is 25k fine, third is 5 game suspension and 5+5x for every violation lol.

Guy seems to have burnt a lot of bridges / setup some really bad perceptions about himself.
Hope he hasn't stupid'ed his way to China.

By livefromkyoto Go To PostWhen is the Lebron James balance patch coming? Because this shit needs to be nerfed.Retirement
By joefu Go To PostPeople say Carlisle is bad with troublemaker players, but uuuuh he coached Artrst pretty well…Didn't Artest attack the wrong fan under Rick?
By reilo Go To PostRetirementThat guy is going to be dropping 30 point games at age 42 as he runs around out there with the venom tubes coming out of his neck.
Just wait when Lebron Jr gets drafted #1 in 5 years time and Lebron is still ripping the Raptors's hearts out in the playoffs while Derozan and Lowry are doing a retirement tour for the Magic and Nets, respectively.
By reilo Go To PostJust wait when Lebron Jr gets drafted #1 in 5 years time and Lebron is still ripping the Raptors's hearts out in the playoffs while Derozan and Lowry are doing a retirement tour for the Magic and Nets, respectively.The only part of this that I doubt is DeRozan not retiring in Toronto. He said he wants to play with one team his whole career like Kobe, and a franchise that’s lost every other star it’s ever had will probably be happy to accommodate him.
Nets are so garbage, YES is in no rush to play the game. Yankee game cut into it which is understandable but now they’re showing post game interviews.
