My comment was supposed to be a little demeaning - glad I didn’t miss the mark. I’m sure she’s a delightful person. Saudi lifting the ban on women driving - to my knowledge the only civilized (if I can stretch the definition) country on the planet with such a medieval edict in place - is a huge step forward for women…

Welcome to the internet. You must be new around here. 

This is a good first step, but it’s a shame that they’re still forcing her to completely cover herself up except for her eyes.

Wait: no one drafted LiAngelo Ball?

“Damn, that was cold!” 

Typical America, separating minority children from their mothers.

I wonder if there wasn’t some sort of understanding that Doncic’s willingness to come over was contingent on knowing the Kings weren’t going to take him. 

I’m trying to figure out what the ‘test’ is.

If I were the son of one of the greatest basketball players of all time I would want to do something as far away from basketball as possible so I wouldn’t be compared to my dad. I also would want to go by my middle name.

I think we confused Leonard’s refusal to talk about anything ever as evidence of someone who is even keeled and not prone to drama. The silent ones can be as big of drama queens as anyone else. I know I can’t recall situations like this where a star player pisses away a prime year for nothing, in any sport.

Playing most minutes in NBA? A year. Surrounded by players to share the load, particularly on D (Where he already has fallen off in terms of quantity.) I’d sign him to a 5 year deal counting on 2 awesome, 2 solid, 1 who cares?

LeBron should announce that he’s going to Seattle, and it’s up to the NBA to put a team there for him.

I like the Warriors, I truly do. However, I don’t think they’re as big of a juggernaut as advertised.

CP3 doesn’t get hurt, and the Rockets are probably in the Finals.

Kyrie doesn’t get traded... and the Cavs could beat the Warriors. We know this because it’s happened.

A healthy Boston team would be a hell of a matchup…

The Warriors or Cavs (ha) should say “damn, we were going to come.” Then Trump will be all like “These young men are patriots. Invite is back on.” Then the Warriors or Cavs should just send a shirtless JR Smith to dribble out the rest of the term.

Well, if somebody just fucked me in the ass, I wouldn’t turn around and ask them for a blowjob.

It’s a normal relationship, find a new slant.

Still at it, Barbara?

Again, this brings up the other eternal question... MJ or LeBron: who is the more terrible GM?

Counterpoint: The Cleveland Cavaliers have been around for 48 years, 11 with LeBron. They’ve made it out of the 1st round of the playoffs twice in the 37 non-LeBron years. They were in the lottery the five years previous to drafting LeBron. When he left for Miami they missed the playoffs every year. They had the #1…

“Sad, failing Lebron James should worry less about getting invited to the White House (a great honor!) and more about winning games! Loser!”
