Sounds like Kobe
She said his brother was at the club with him and came over to talk to her. Kobe doesn't have a brother. And he's not really known to go clubbing.
By blackace Go To PostAcy is so bad the Kings didn't want him… he played SF for them tho..
They just got him back, man.

By Gabyskra Go To PostThey just got him back, man.what a horrible off season for them... the only moves that made sense was Marco and Curry.. I can see the logic behind Rondo.. but I don't think it will end up to be a good move.

Man if anyone seems like they like to get their salad tossed it's Klay.

By blackace Go To PostThings we learned this offseason Kyrie's pull up game is way stronger than his pull out game
By Gabyskra Go To PostI don't know how you can be so good at pulling up and so bad at pulling outI already did it better
By reilo Go To PostOh my fuck how does a flight get delayed 3 hours for a flight that will be an hour in the air?Which airline?
By KingGondo Go To PostWhich airline?Alaska. Never flew with them before and heard good things but this is dumb.
Fucking hell the flight from Seattle that this plane is departing from to make this flight hasn't even left yet.
By reilo Go To PostAlaska. Never flew with them before and heard good things but this is dumb.lmao
yo my dad drove to the continental us from anchorage to keep from dealing with them
I never flew with them and heard good things. Asking to have my flight changed to something else now. Hopefully I don't fly with them.
Bleacher Report's Josh Martin has been following Bradley Beal this summer as he trains with Drew Hanlen and prepares for the most important season of his career as he tries to show he deserves a max deal. In the piece, Beal drops the most encouraging quote of the season:
In Beal's case, Hanlen zeroed in on three weak spots for his first client to strengthen this summer: finishing at the rim, drawing fouls and sharpening his shot selection. The two of them agreed to focus on those areas, without input from the Wizards.
"I have to do as much as I can as best as I can to eliminate those long twos and get to the basket, get to the free-throw line," Beal said. "Those are just easy points."

haha poor reilo, my alaska flights have always been on time and that complimentary wine or beer that goes on forever some flights is nice. Are you flying out of SFO?
By Dark PhaZe Go To Postno
become a great one
naw...those are basic skills of a good player... not taking shitty shots and attacking the rim.. That's like the first things you are taught to do..
Let's be honest: he's been mediocre with occasional flashes of potential thus far in his career. Not to mention the injuries.
Beal does not take shitty shots. His long 2s are not forced, he's more Glenn Robinson than JR Smith. But it's not the 90s, he's just trying to follow the present day trend...
By Gabyskra Go To PostBeal does not take shitty shots. His long 2s are not forced, he's more Glenn Robinson than JR Smith. But it's not the 90s, he's just trying to follow the present day trend…The present day trend is make sure your long 2s are actually 3s
By DY_nasty Go To PostThe present day trend is make sure your long 2s are actually 3s
Yeah, that's what I said.

Looooong 2s have always been bad shots tho.. even in the 90s. Even more so now

No they weren't. Jordan won 3 titles with them as his main offensive weapon.
By Gabyskra Go To PostNo they weren't. Jordan won 3 titles with them as his main offensive weapon.Jordan is like... You can't really compare him, or the offenses/defenses back then, to guys or teams now.
A long 2 is a win for any defense in the league.
By DY_nasty Go To PostJordan is like… You can't really compare him, or the offenses/defenses back then, to guys or teams now.

Now. But back then the game was different. Glenn Robinson, Allan Houston, Jimmy Jackson, Mashburn, hell even Malone, Ewing... they relied on the long 2. The paradigm has shifted, but don't act like it was a bad shot in the 1990s.
So if you set custom DNS and try to login to a public wifi that requires you to go through a login portal, it will not work until you remove said DNS. In my case, I had my laptop set to use Google DNS.

in 97...
MJ looked like this
He took more long twos than todays game but you can see the majority of his shots on the blocks and at the rim.. and that's older MJ..
Once you get out to around the college 3 it's a bad shot..
Long twos are a perfectly fine shot if you are really good at them, like, say, if your name is Michael Jordan or Dirk Nowitzki or Steve Nash.
Guess what? Those guys are really fucking amazing.
Guess what? Those guys are really fucking amazing.
By reilo Go To PostYea. Boarding now at 11:58 at a different gate. Should've been approaching Portland by now.SFO is ass.
By db Go To PostSFO is ass.Compared to LAX this airport is heaven.
By reilo Go To PostLong twos are a perfectly fine shot if you are really good at them, like, say, if your name is Michael Jordan or Dirk Nowitzki or Steve Nash.You forgot about Dion Waiters.
Guess what? Those guys are really fucking amazing.
Oh wait...
By db Go To PostI just use OAK, it's dead and lacks a lot of stuff but that makes it wonderful.Fuck paying for the ride over there or having to take BART to get there from where I live lol.
By KingGondo Go To PostLet's be honest: he's been mediocre with occasional flashes of potential thus far in his career. Not to mention the injuries.
You could easily have said the same thing about Klay prior to his breakout year. Beal has the advantage of youth and has shown to flip a switch twice in a row now in the post season over the last two seasons.
Significant decrease to the mid-range shot and significant increases at 3pt shots and attacking the rim could easily make a 5ppg and 5% FG percentage difference in his averages next year.
By KingGondo Go To PostYou forgot about Dion Waiters.People keep telling me to be hyped for Lamb but I can't
Oh wait…
By db Go To PostI just use OAK, it's dead and lacks a lot of stuff but that makes it wonderful.Airports that are off the beaten path can be great.
The OKC airport is newly renovated, convenient to get to, and always dead as shit. I can leave my house like 45 minutes before the flight and make it no problem.
That's because you live in OKC. I think there's more people in this airport than the entire state of Oklahoma.

It's like you're doing it on purpose with these bat signals lol
By Vahagn Go To PostIt's like you're doing it on purpose with these bat signals lolJust because I didn't list Kobe it doesn't mean you should go apeshit. It was an example of players that can get away shooting long twos, but it still doesn't mean it's a good shot.
By DY_nasty Go To PostPeople keep telling me to be hyped for Lamb but I can'tHype is the wrong approach. He'll have his moments and he's an underrated all-around offensive guy. But he'll also disappear at times and his defense is subpar at best.
No reason he can't stick around in the league for a while unless his personality just doesn't work in the NBA.
Hopefully Clifford has more tolerance for his drowsy DGAF attitude though. Brooks hated his ass.
By reilo Go To PostThat's because you live in OKC. I think there's more people in this airport than the entire state of Oklahoma.Oklahoma has almost the same population as Oregon breh.
By reilo Go To Post4/5 of Oregon's population resides in Portland metro area, which is twice the size of OKC's metro.Not even sure what we're arguing about.
Yes, OKC is a bit of a backwater, but that can have its benefits from time to time.
I enjoy using our airport, but it does suck that you have to connect unless you're going to Texas, Chicago, Denver, Vegas, or Orlando. Flying to Maine to see my wife's family is a massive pain in the ass.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Postif I weren't in DC, I'd want to be in Seattlehave you been to seattle?
is that bad
By Vahagn Go To PostIt's like you're doing it on purpose with these bat signals lolits okay i thought the same thing lol
By reilo Go To PostJust because I didn't list Kobe it doesn't mean you should go apeshit. It was an example of players that can get away shooting long twos, but it still doesn't mean it's a good shot.
Ok buddy I was hardly going apeshit. It was self deprecating humor.
