I can't believe I'm saying this about a dookie, but I kinda like Brandon Ingram.

such a talented combo of wingspan and ink.

Lakers really fucked up gutting their core of good young players. Lonzo Ingram Randle. Probably others I am forgetting.

If the Warriors didn't make the comeback I might have assumed they were just fine returning to "The Bay" with the L - because it would be financially beneficial for the organization.

The Pelicans started the season 1-12, 3-16. Finished 10 games under .500.
They are currently 2-2 in their playoff series against the 64-18 Suns.

The Bucks are currently +750 to win the Championship. Seems like a steal.

Celts beating the Nets ass again. The Nets suck at defense. They need "A" games from Kyrie and KD or they are getting swept.

I kinda want the Nets to win one so that Kyrie has to travel back to Boston.

So no Ben Simmons for a long while.
That 4th quarter capped by not attempting a layup really fucked with the dudes head.

Celts sweep.
Did not see that.

What a headcase.

Anyone see what Stephen A. Smith said about Ben Simmons this morning? Damn.

I am going to take a bath on this 76ers game. Thought for sure they'd blow them out with VanVleet out....and then decided to double down at halftime when they were down and the odds/line changed. Ooops.

Ramen for dinner the rest of the week.

Side note: very cool to see the post game interactions of KD and Kyrie with Tatum. Lots of respect and love there between those guys. I think that is cool to see. Tatum is an easy dude to cheer for. KD and Kyrie, not so much.

Gawd I hope this A-hole slips into as much obscurity as possible.

He's so good, but definitely easy to dislike. But you can't play guys like Seth Curry alongside him. They are just way too small and not good at defense. The celtics bigger stronger guards totally abused them.

I still don't understand why KD wanted to play with Kyrie.

Kyrie is the Scott Drew of the NBA

Because they are both weird as fuck. And insecure. KD with burner twitter accounts constantly responding to fans opinions. Kyrie with the weird theories on life, and also evidenced by his inability to ignore boston fans spending more time flippin the bird than trying to win games.

KD being unhappy in GS is all the evidence I need. That has to be one of the easiest teams to play on. Steph and Klay are super nice dudes it seems like. Draymond not so much, but steph klay wiggins poole etc etc etc seem to get along with him just fine.

Smart making a face at KD

Some guys love to compete at the highest level.

Ben Simmons seems like he doesn't. He just seems to like being an NBA player without the hassle of actually trying hard to get better.

Agreed.

He's a mutli millionaire and in his mind it may be "mission accomplished".

There is a video of him going thru drills pregame and passing up shots when he is supposed to be shooting as part of the drill...a nets coach//trainer looks at him and throws his arms up like "wtf".
