Nice double entendre

I think he’s got a case as the best offensive basketball player ever

The glaring weakness in Jokic's game is that he's mostly only a half-court threat, but the fast break is only a fraction of offense. He runs the break well, but that rarely happens. Everybody else on my list gives transition D fits.

In no specific order:

MJ
Lebron
Steph
Jokic

Maybe?
Shaq
Magic
Luka

Steph

It's like he saw this convo pre-game

Love that Silver has like 20 teams playing in a back to back after the NBA cup games yesterday. It’s hilarious.

How come the nba won’t push the season back a couple weeks and abandon back to backs???

Caruso led the NBA with 3.6 deflections per game last year. Dyson Daniels is averaging 7.7 this year

I get the money (to a degree, he doesn't need it), but at that age just go enjoy the time you have left with family.

I watched Daniels against Detroit last week and anytime he guarded Ivey, Ivey looked like he saw a ghost. He manhandled Cade. He forced like 7 turnovers by himself

19 points on 8 shots last night.

This is legitimately some of the worst defense I’ve ever seen

Really hopeful Seattle gets an expansion NBA team or another team ups and moves there. Really miss the SuperSonics jerseys and the days of Jack Sikma, Dennis Johnson, Lonnie Shelton, Gus Williams and Downtown Freddie Brown.

25 game suspension right now

Once LeBron retires, expansion will be announced since he’s getting the Vegas team
