The continually hilarious thing about being a corrupt or just weak official bending over for Trump is that Trump will absolutely brag about it and publicly throw you under the bus lmao. Over and over again.

Enjoyed Bill Simmons calling it bizarre the Rockets didn't trade for CJ McCollum this year and how he 'can't understand it' and this being the first time he's ever suggested that trade that we wouldn't have been able to pull off anyway. Playoffs season!

Everyone was bitching about Ime hating Reed (even though 27 mpg for a sophomore guard seems fine?) so I'm gonna need him to not look so scared in the playoffs. He was ass in the NCAA tournament, was so bad that game against the Warriors the starters had to come back in and is 6-24 this series

Enjoyed Stan van Gundy's mini rant on the Zach Lowe show about sports scientists in the NBA in the debate about 65 games and resting players. You only have to look at how many players are cupping, using kt tape etc to know there's a bunch of junk pseudoscience around the league.

Feels like the whole nba medie ecosystem is pencilling in Denver in 3 and Houston/Lakers in the 4/5 matchup. I don't get it...to me, unfortunately, I think Lakers are favourites to finish 3rd.

Not a fan of the fact that if Houston are in a close game down the stretch in the playoffs and Kevin Durant is at the free throw line all of a sudden I have to be worried he is gonna choke. This is a career 89% FT shooter. I watched that fucker make 40 in a row against us in the 2018 playoffs

Okogie starting feels like a good compromise in the TarivReed debate. Okogie helps you with the defense and rebounding like Tari, and while not the ballhandler/shooter Reed is, hits open shots and has been great putting the ball on the floor and swinging it. Helps with the new, more fluid offense.
