By WWCHGT Go To PostIs Louis williams in a contract year?he's a UFA in 2018
People forget that Kobe hit 62 in 3 quarters in a blow out and never came back.
Any coach with his salt would not let Klay play in a meaningless game in order to chase some personal record.

By Moris Go To PostAnd now Randle is hurt. 😞He was already playing hurt wasn't he?
So we are now down Russell, Young, Randle, Larry Nance Jr, Calderon and Black.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostWhy is Julius Randle complaining for a foul call down 5 with 0.4 seconds left.garbage points are his forte
Glad hobbled LA kept it close with hobbled Utah. Had The Jazz playing LA's tempo for a bit but Utah is just a better team.

By blackace Go To PostKlay's output was basically the same as Wilt's per min..And Klay didn't have Wilt's advantages...
By linsivvi Go To PostHe was already playing hurt wasn't he?
So we are now down Russell, Young, Randle, Larry Nance Jr, Calderon and Black.
Think he just busted his hand a bit, shouldn't be too serious.
So we're just missing our starting guards, our back up PG, back up PF and back up C ....
And I really dislike Randle/Nance getting minutes at center.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostRIP Julius Randle.the best part is TRob being so salty he blew his dunk the previous possession

That was pretty strange watching the video, lol.
He's so mad all the time.
By blackace Go To PostI don't know a 3 point line is pretty fucking helpful..Why would Wilt shoot a three when he can just dunk on 6'2 white dudes all game?
By reilo Go To PostWhy would Wilt shoot a three when he can just dunk on 6'2 white dudes all game?And sleeping with those dudes wives before, at halftime and after the game ends

1. Pascal Siakam

Now to hope this guy isn't as embarrassing as Andrew Bogut personally.
Jeff Withey hasn't been as good this year, but I'm just talking about University of Utah players. Poeltl and Bogut are both Utah players.
Why would Wilt shoot a three when he can just dunk on 6'2 white dudes all game?Darrall Imhoff aka Big D.. was 6'10"..
The Knicks had 4 6'9" players on the roster... The myth that the NBA was much shorter during Wilt's era is just that... a myth..

By Kibner Go To PostThanks for looking up average player heights so I didn't have to, blackace.same bullshit comes up every few years...
it's just factually incorrect...
By Moris Go To PostI always forget the name of the shoe company Klay signed with. Lolit's a funny name that is like a rude and shitty way to say "you" in Japanese 😂
Going by ORtg, the Warriors and Raptors this year have the best offenses in NBA history.

lol
The Mavericks hope to be able to salvage their season and reenter the playoff picture at some point.
If the Mavericks have no hope of making the playoffs before the trade deadline, they could be motivated to move Bogut.
Bogut could fetch a first round pick from a contender. Bogut will be a free agent in the 2017 offseason.
By Kabro Go To Postlol
fucking LOL at anyone trading a first for Bogut.
By blackace Go To PostHe is kinda shitty for clowning a company paying him
I got the feeling Klay was dead serious but everyone else laughed.
Crazy stuff

By Dipro Go To Post"running up the score" is such a weird american concept.
In pro sports it doesn't matter as much... like if you are winner by 40 in the 4th and keep your starters in you are kind of a dick and moron.
But if the bench gets off *shrug*
our sports aren't seed by how much you win like some leagues.
By Moris Go To PostGlad hobbled LA kept it close with hobbled Utah. Had The Jazz playing LA's tempo for a bit but Utah is just a better team.
Debatable at full strength.
