Marbury vs Jimmer in China on the biggest stage is my dream come true

Lonzo reminds me of a less dynamic, slightly better at rebounding version of Ricky Rubio.

Now that is how you develop a young player.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Lonzo Ball, aka the answer to the question that people didn't even know they wanted to ask: what would it have looked like if Kevin Martin's funky-assed shot didn't go in?

 

[Larry89]

But Lonzo has this aura about him, a special intrinsic value that inspires his teammates to play better and to pass the ball. Just having Lonzo on the court improves everyone's play in a way which stats cannot measure, he has intangibles alright, leadership and inspiration. His impact cannot be measured on the court by any stats, fg%, PER, +/-, it just doesn't matter. You guys cannot see the impact he has on the game

LaVar Ball, the father of UCLA freshman LiAngelo Ball, talked Wednesday about his son's arrest in China.

LaVar Ball said, "I'm going to wait until I get more intel on what's going on" before he comments on LiAngelo Ball's arrest but said he's not worried. "He'll be fine," he said. "Everyone's making it a big deal. It ain't that big a deal."

LiAngelo, LaVar’s middle son, was arrested with teammates Cody Riley and Jalen Hill after allegedly stealing sunglasses from a Louis Vuitton store. The trio were released on bail Wednesday. According to a Yahoo Sports report, the three are confined to the Hangzhou hotel as the legal process plays out and may not be able to fly back with the team once its exhibition against Georgia Tech in Shanghai is completed.

I believe the ripple effect is what caused that earthquake in LA this morning.

The Celtics say Kyrie Irving suffered a minor facial fracture against Charlotte last night and is doubtful tomorrow against Toronto.

Aron Baynes managed to injure his own teammate while fouling a CHA player. Masked Kyrie returns.

Boogie with 35/15 and his team wins.

8 turnovers, though. Let's keep it

For some reason the Pelicans didn't mention that on Twitter.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Best thing about Pelicans Twitter is the Swag Pelican gif that they post after wins.

 

[Telemachus]

I just read that Gobert will miss 4-6 weeks with a bone bruise on his knee.

 

[kingsboi]

Knicks taking it to the Cavs once again, hilarious!

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Pelicans had to work entirely too hard to beat the Atlanta Hawks.

 

[Telemachus]

Pelicans had to work entirely too hard to beat the Atlanta Hawks.

Atlanta probably mis-read the schedule and thought they were playing the Kings today.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Man, that fourth quarter was a disaster for the Pelicans, even though they technically outscored Toronto in it. They went into the quarter down twelve, they only got ten defensive stops in the quarter, and then they only scored five points off them. It was so wild, that I started keeping track. Here's all what they did, when they did manage to stop Toronto in the fourth:

Davis miss layup
Moore miss 3-ptr
Davis OOB turnover
Nelson OOB turnover
Davis +2 (FTs)
Davis blocked at the rim
Cousins charge turnover
Davis miss jumper
Moore +2 (jumper)
Miller +1 (FT - garbage time)

And every other time that Toronto had the ball in the fourth, that I don't have listed above, they scored.

 

[LoungeLizard]

Watching the Sixers tonight has been fun. Embiid s a straight up Beast! Simmons is great too.

 

[Iced Espresso]

Lakers lose, Lonzo 1 for 9 from the floor & -18 plus/minus

At least I've got that for amusement tonight.

 

[kingsboi]

and the streak continues

 

[LoungeLizard]

Rockets just put up 90 on the Suns.....in the 1st Half!!! Sheesh, it’s a struggle for our guys to hit that number in a full game!

Just demolishing the Suns. Booker, Chriss, Bender, guess they should just fire their coach, again....

Edit: Forgot the number 4 pick, Jackson

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

One team's dramatic comeback is another team's back-breaking choke job.

 

[SLAB]

Lonzo with a studly 2/1/1 at half. #GOAT

 

[Iced Espresso]

Jazz destroyed the magic, won by 40.

Losing by 40. How embarrassing.
