I get how opposing players would want to knock him down a peg or two, but Scott Brooks had a personal, alternate perspective on Lavar:

“His dad has gone on top of all that,” Wall said.

No “good” coach uses all of their timeouts before the start of the 4th quarter in multiple games in a season.

He is in over his head.

One thing I really did like about the switch was that you could see plays open up like the QB does. It’s one thing when you see the traditional view and you don’t know what’s happening up field, but this Madden-view allowed viewers to see routes develop. Unless you’re a woman.

Plus if you’re on the Magic, you’re forced to become part of DeVos’s downstream at Amway

The Magic are where careers go to die. They are a black pit of basketball nihilism, treading water through inept draft after inept draft never once touching anything remotely resembling competency. The Pacers play in Indiana which is a downgrade from Arizona, though that’s a pretty low bar to clear all things…

You’re not alone, Eric.

Pfft. Don’t tell me when I’m allowed to start sucking dicks, sir.

Nah, KD is more of a bandwagon guy

Todd Marinovich, is that you?

That’s why they call him Beverley Crusher. 

*hug*

I am a firm believer that if enough opposing players fuck with him on the court, he’ll turn into a bust. Domineering fathers produce mentally fragile sons. BELIEVE ME, I KNOW 

You’d be surprised at how many grow men begrudgingly admit they wish they had someone, but in particular, their father that supportive of them when they were growing up.

Right, people are “jealous” of their relationship.

“Whose disgusting basketball foot is this?”

Class ring. Yup. Those Josten’s people are laughing all the way to the bank on the backs of unsuspecting sophomores wearing shitty looking decoder rings.

I empathize. I suffered a “clean break” of the heart in my junior year of high school, when my girlfriend dumped me on the first day of school. It didn’t heal in time for me to ask anybody else to enjoy any of the dances or social activities that I actually wouldn’t have gone to, anyway, had they accepted.

I’m with you on the Cavs and Washington here. But while Boston may end up finishing below the Raptors, Toronto feels like a crappier version of the CP3 Clippers that just kept running the same joyless collection of guys out when we all knew what was going to happen every single year.

The Celtics are still the 2nd best team in the East.
