Zion Oden out 6-8 weeks.

Zion Oden out 6-8 weeks.

With the way he plays and being the second heaviest player in the NBA; injuries like this may be a common theme to his career.

Next team I'd like to shit on: the Warriors.

Here is their lineup for vast majority of next year:

Curry
Russell
Glenn Robinson III
Draymond Green
Kevin Looney

Playoff team?

I was too kind.

[Geezer]

Is Michael Key playing with them also?

I think the dubs dynasty was more just putting together a really good team with some good draft picks and other acquisitions, but how did the tech boom have anything to do with that? Did Steph decide to put up GOAT shooting numbers just cuz facebook’s stock was up?


And whoa, a whole bay bubble?

Feral is a troll, right?

My take wasn't that Josh Brown was suggesting there is any causation, just that, after ~ a decade-long march by a number of West Coast-headquartered global tech companies leading a global charge, and the Warriors doing so well at the same time, the "East Coast investment bankers and syndicates" have concluded that some of the glow is off, "Something tells me this chapter has closed.", and among other things, co.s in the area planning to launch IPOs to raise capital are going to suffer because of it.

And as far as the co-owners of the Warriors are concerned, I wouldn't shed too many tears:

I laughed at this. I figure the Lakers would win 9 out of 10 games by 20 or more points.

Looking at who whatever kid picked that lakers lineup makes me want to punch a baby.

[pdub]

I'm guessing they mean 'in their prime' no matter if they were on the Lakers or Bulls in their prime.
I get Shaq but man, it'd be difficult to not have Kareem AND Wilt on there.
Duh on taking out Anthony Davis for one of those guys.

I'd have Wilt and Kareem.
I wouldn't have that much an issue with Shaq and one of those guys though.

On one hand, as if the Shaq-Kobe beef wasn’t bad enough, let’s add lebron to the mix!

On the other hand, whoever designed this graphic just injured Derrick Rose in doing so.

who gets the zen master?

[pdub]

Kobe and Bron prime were better than both West and Baylor.
And by 5 on 5, I think they mean one game, so we don't necessarily have to deal with chemistry issues over a season ( Kobe, Bron, Shaq ).

[ousdahl]

who gets the zen master?

both...true zen is omnipresent...

[Cascadia]

Would LeBron and AD both be available? You know, load management and all that

[TDub]

Never bet against Mike
