I’m sure Lonzo’s dad has a few ideas.

“Lakers Nation, after careful review, I’ve learned there is nothing saying a dog CAN’T coach a basketball team. Big news!”

Maybe Luke should have his dad send Magic a gift to help him chill out.

“The problem with getting off to a slow start, is that that means you aren’t winning as many games as you’d like.”

You’d think Johnson would’ve learned to live with his aides by now.

Did...did you just put Ingles in the same category as Embiid and Draymond?

Rented for 7, slouched outside for 5 or 6?

No way he lasts seven minutes

OK, Donnie Jr., but nobody forgot about your dad’s worst deal—paying $130,000 to rent three cubic inches of Stormy Daniels for seven minutes.

Traded for WHAT exactly? More picks? Youth? That’s exactly what the Kings don’t need.

I do what I want!

They also made a prediction that the 1-5 Rockets are “ass.” I tend to agree- they played ugly basketball last year, but now it’s both ugly and ineffective.

I think it’s fun and what makes deadspins writers interesting. They put their fandom out there. Have sweltering hot takes early in seasons backed up by current numbers and/or hilarious signings.  Every writer is more than happy to own up to a team proving them wrong. It's better than waiting until things are more or…

Good for Buddy Heild. It’s not easy being remembered solely as the guy everyone thought was a really bad return for a traded star.

Did anybody else look at that pic of Willie Cauley-Stein and think…

This team is fun to watch, which is a step above what we had the last few years. I’ll take it at this point. Continuing to win would be nice as well.

See, Burneko? The Kings played the Wizards, and they’re fine now.  The Rockets will look better by November 27.

The Bulls are like an ugly girl on Tinder: Slump busters.

Exactly. I never did. Sure, it’s fun to be the alpha dog and carry a team on your back, but you know what’s even more fun? To play that way with a couple other of your buddies who are equally dominant.
