By pilonv1 Go To PostCan't wait for LeBron to start stewing over this and releasing short films every year till he wins onewouldn't even be a stretch tbh. he's put out some great stuff.... survivor's remorse was awesome
By Apollo Go To PostLook another win for Kobe.MJ is to Space Jam
as Kobe is to Academy Award Winner, Dear Basketball
Kobe wins again.
Remember, Kobe won an Oscar on a night that the MeToo movement is supposed to be the highlight.
Think about that. Hollywood still ain't shit.

Seems like Frank played the 1 a lot when he was paired with Mudiay tonight. Nice to see.

Europe failed me. I entered like 12 different lotteries for the Off White 1s that were exclusive to Europe. Didn't win any of them, and Nike EU didn't work out. Kind of pissed I missed out on probably the best shoes of the year.
Plan B is those fire Pharrell Human Race Hu Holi. These are hella hot, hoping I can get the entire set.

Shun, are you a big enough sneakerhead to have a room for all your sneakers? I know some people do that, or just have a giant closet dedicated to them.

No I resell a lot of the time. I only keep the ones I really like. It helps that wifey likes sneakers too. Like those Off White 1s went for 10x retail. Yeezys used to go for 5x retail. These are going to be my first Pharrell Human Race to own.
Right now what I have is 10 pairs? You cycle them throughout the season.

Same thing goes for Supreme, Billionaire Boys Club, BAPE, Canada Goose, Polo Ralph Lauren, all that stuff. I keep the ones I really like, I flip a lot of other stuff because there is always a market for it.
By blackace Go To PostLol lakers legend Robert Sacre doing dunk contests out here in japan. 😂🤣He won on a weak ass dunk lol.
Edit: ok not sure he won but guess they gave him high marks for a weak dunk.
How is the Kobe rape case so much worse than I remembered it.
There's so much evidence that he raped her and his lawyers made their entire defense about the woman was a slut and had mental illness.

Yeah I think this a good take on Kobe.

To some extent, this isn’t a clean and tidy narrative for anger. There haven’t been subsequent reports of Bryant assaulting or abusing women. Perhaps he learned. Perhaps he got better. Perhaps he is the proof that the alleged can get better. The part of me that yearns for criminal justice reform knows that throwing Bryant in prison, like America already does to too many black men, is not the answer.
But there he was, Sunday night, smiling on that Oscar stage. Cracking a joke he clearly pre-wrote and getting a laugh anyway. Thanking his wife. And I couldn’t help but cry for the woman who is asking herself, right now, if I report him will anything happen to him? And I want to scream because Bryant on that stage, clinging to that golden statue, reminds her and me that the answer, still, is no.
I'm going to be asleep for a while probably, but yes, I also know that Karl Malone is a scumbag and pedophile, yes.
I was just shocked at the amount of evidence in the Kobe rape case and the horrific smearing of the victim.

And you're not wrong IWMTB. You're just not. But then, haven't NFL players got away with murder?

I'm not going to defend Marvin Harrison or anything either...
(I have no idea how Marvin Harrison's murdering people thing has been so forgotten either).
Kobe was clearly innocent. The prosecution completely fell apart under pressure.
Also, D’Tective has not been close to the same since coming back from that injury. Maybe he should have sat out longer.

I was a freshman in HS when Kobe allegations happened and I wasn’t sure what to think since dude was a Laker hero. Though reading again what happened makes me think a little. Like I’m not even sure if I should even feel anger since like that article mentioned me he’s been better since then. Though if this shit happened now his career would have been over. Nearly everyone with recent allegations was blacklisted at the Oscars.

FYI, Puddles is a troll account of Jack Remington as he admitted to me.
Jrue is pretty good on offense this season:
57.6 TS% and 54.8 eFG% so he's just making a ton of shots.
Among guards with 20% or higher usage, he's 11th in TS% and 5th in eFG%.
His defense has also been valuable as he's been guarding 1-3 pretty effectively and even some 4s. As long as the player doesn't have an abundance of brute strength, he has more than held his own.

By s y Go To PostShould have been an all star over Kemba or DragicProbably over Dragic, but probably not over Kemba.
I feel like it's karma that someone that kept calling Cousins overrated and not vastly influential on his teams success will have the team he is a fan of miss the playoffs because Cousins' team has been playing better without him.
I'm that person btw
Still hope he comes back healthy though

By diehard Go To PostI feel like it's karma that someone that kept calling Cousins overrated and not vastly influential on his teams success will have the team he is a fan of miss the playoffs because Cousins' team has been playing better without him.They had won 8 of 9 including that signature Rockets win before Cousins went down with injury. They were finally learning how to play well together.

e: and the team then lost the next four games without him while readjusting again
By Kibner Go To PostThey had won 8 of 9 including that signature Rockets win before Cousins went down with injury. They were finally learning how to play well together.They still had a negative differential with just him, and a massively positive differential with just AD. Some of that is just noise, but it doesn't help when you're an advanced stat nerd.

With $100 on the line, would you take the over or the under on Ben Simmons made 3 pointers this season?
The over/under is set at: 1

By diehard Go To PostThey still had a negative differential with just him, and a massively positive differential with just AD.Gentry stupidly tied Rondo and the bench to Cousins which made Rondo entirely redundant and just more actively harmful than usual.
