November 20, 20232 yr OKC is definitely ahead of schedule. Should be top 4 in the west and what a fun team to watch. Crazy how entertaining the NBA has gotten the last few years.

He’s so underrated and under appreciated. Please love Chet. He shouldn't even be eligible. Sucks that he got hurt and missed his rookie year, but he's had a full year in their program. This is the only league that lets second year players count as rookies.

November 20, 20232 yr You said the NBA is the only league that lets 2nd year players count as rookies. That is clearly not true. The NBA in fact has more strict rules about games played than MLB or the NHL. The NFL has the toughest standards. The rookie clock starts from signing.

Crazy how entertaining the NBA has gotten the last few years. They're thin with their bigs so their rebounding is a problem but outside of that, they 've got 10 guys who can get up and down the court and score. Isiah Joe? Good Lord. The previous iteration of the Thunder was Durant, Westbrook, and a bunch of interchangeable guys who lacked even basic offensive skills.

November 21, 20232 yr it was a good night for those Detroit fans who came out to see the refs make a great play and eject Joker in the 1st quarter. You can't let the fans see him play on his one visit to the motor city.

The 2x MVP isn't allowed to say anything when he's being mugged. It's like Hack a Shaq out there with Jok, except he doesn't get to shoot free throws. They just knock the hell out of him.

I knew something was up with Denver struggling, didn’t know joker was ejected until later haha
November 21, 20232 yr It was in Detroit where they also tossed Giannis. Embiid had better be on his best behavior when he comes to town.

And that wouldnt even be THAT bad if it wasnt so crazy inconsistent. Someone like JJ who barely argued with refs getting booted for that compared to Draymond cussing them out constantly and guys like Luka bitching about every single fuck call/no call almost never getting techs and rarely getting tossed makes it fucking unbearable

November 22, 20232 yr Interesting stat. Booker went 10-10 from the line tonight against the Blazers. Ayton has 9 FTs (7-9) for the year so far…less than 1 per game.

Still this is better than a mid 90’s game between the two where 100 would’ve been celebrated as an accomplishment.

November 22, 20232 yr Remember when some folks said that Ayton contract was right in line with his worth? Hoo boy Ayton is sailing right into a job in Japan once this one expires. 9 times he has shot 0 FTs4 times he has shot 21 time he shot 1He has played 31+ minutes a game. That might be the wildest stat line over 14 games ever.

It can probably feel like you have the weight of the world on your shoulders when so many people probably pushed him to play this sport. He clearly plays like someone that takes no joy in being out there.
November 22, 20232 yr Saw him person last season when he was still with the Suns. He's very impressive in person. Tall, big, athletic, etc. Checks all of the boxes. However, he's just not good at basketball and maybe it's because he doesn't care. Didn't realize how few FT's he shoots. To compare: Embid: 35 minutes per game. 11 FTA's per game Ayton: 31.5 minutes per game. 0.6 FTA's per game.
November 23, 20232 yr Author “boooooooo.” ”guys can we show a little class and stop with the booing?” ”BOOOOOOOOOOO!!!” Pop would make a great substitute teacher.

November 23, 20232 yr Kyrie was really flat in the 4th before nailing that go ahead three and free throws to round out the scoring. He really had things all mapped out down the stretch.
November 23, 20232 yr So…Josh Giddey seems to have gotten himself into a little bit it a predicament This blew up in the last couple of hoursThunder subreddit has 400 posts already lol
November 23, 20232 yr Author kids these days ate something else. i’m no longer working at my school, but my mom still comes home with stories of these little drug addicts and porn stars daily. thank god i was born in the mid 80’s.
