Damn Rockets offering 4 1st round picks to the Wolves for Butler? Even though those aren't high picks I may have to jump on that deal.

You still missing my point. I was talking about Kobe 81 pt game and him being a ball hog just so he could stack his pts up instead of getting his teammates involved.

Steph plays on a much better team than Kobe played on when he scored 81 pts.

Steph don't ball hog like Kobe did. Kobe was a legit ball hog self ego stat chaser.

Hart is a crazy nice addition to the Lake Show.

Dude is fearless non the court. And Stephenson love the big moments. I’m happy for dude and I’m happy for Javel as well.

JaVale is playing great. Back to back 20 point efforts is unheard of for him. Lance is that spark off the bench that plays with nuts and heart. Lake Show has scored at least 119 in all these games struggling from 3. Few teams in the league can do that and most cant run wit them once they tighten their D up. Thats been their main focus since camp because the points are gonna come.

Javel knows that you need to do everything as a big man now, I read an article on how he felt bigs where been forced out the league. Pretty much if you can't run and shoots 3s its a rap. Javel has extended his range. dude looks like a different player out there man, and yeah i am a big Josh hart fan, dude plays hard and takes good shots.

mcgee...stephenson...rondo...beasley...all underdogs I’ve followed for a minute...lonzo and the ball family who I’m supportive of as well...then you add the best player in the league...kinda hard for me not to root for this team esp. since folks have the whole team as underdogs...I was really surprised when some said they wouldn’t even make the playoffs...still a nets fan but I definitely need another team to watch and pull for a little bit cuz it’s gonna be another depressing season for the nets

I wasn’t sure how Ball was going to fit with Rondo on the team, but now I see he where he is fitting in.

With LB, Stephenson, Kuzma, and/or Hart on the court he can be a 4th option with less pressure. So basically, he is learning to be efficient. Make good plays, be confident in his shot, and play pesky defense (doesn’t have to be great, but pesky as hell).

He doesn’t have to take on the scoring load, but score enough to where the defense have to respect him.

Lakers got streaker shooters, so their 3 game is going to be up and down, but I think they might be able to defend better. Some miscues, but acceptable with a new team early this season. I enjoy watching them hoop.

I definitely think they’ll make the playoffs. Or at least they have enough talent to make the playoffs.

I’m seeing how they play now, so I understand Walton’s philosophy here. I was concerned about their chemistry since they have several players that play the same position. But this high pace allows them to make mistakes.

Looks like KCP is the one that’s going to need to figure out how to help. He played well against Phoenix, but for now he is playing below expectations.

Quietly Lonzo shot has improved...
If he could make free throws?

Watch out

How them Palmdale hoes lookin? I know a Jawn out there ready to risk it all for the kid



From what I know they kinda busted. Palmdale is next to a city called Lancaster. A lot of niggas from the hoods of Compton and other parts where shipped out there for low income housing.


I don’t spend NO TIME around those parts. Too fuckin far & the bitches are not worth it.

I'm not missing shit... unlike Westbrook.

Kobe was a ball hog that MADE HIS SHOTS

Westbrook heaved up bullshit and bricks on top of bricks.

He is not efficient and take bad shots, misses them and blames everyone else
