The post game interview between Stephen A and LaVar Ball was incredible. It was way better than the game itself. Stephen A and LaVar Ball need to join Skip Bayless, Shannon Sharpe, and Shaq on a boat to neverland. All of those guys are clowns who's acts have grown tiresome. Calling Lavar Ball a clown is an insult to a clown

I am officially on the Ben Simmons hype train. I love how he runs the 76ers, his court vision, and his confidence out here. Maybe Lonzo has a higher upside long term, but my first impression for Simmons is really high. #TrustTheProcess

Eric Bledsoe tweeted that he wants out, and now according to woj on twitter the Suns just fired head coach Earl Watson never think he quailify as a good coach anyways and Bledsoe is gone it’s matter of when and who will trade for him. I could see a team like the Nuggets go after him.

The Knicks are interested in him, but are not interested in trading Nkitilina or Hernangomez to get the deal done. Bledsoe is decent, but his career numbers are very underwhelming. I think he has a charming name that makes people believe he is bigger and better then he is.

I just read reports that the Bucks are offering the Suns Greg Monroe, Thon Maker, and protected first round draft pick(not sure its lottery protect, top five or what yet.) for Eric Bledsoe.
Bledsoe to the Bucks would be solid but I may hesistate trading Thon Maker who I know is raw and just enter his second season I would keep Thon and see what he can be in a few years also keep in mind Bledsoe have been injury prone for the last few years.

That is such a heart breaking loss for the 76ers they were playing so well against the Rockets and those turnovers the last couple minutes are killer and that dagger Eric Gordon made the three to win he game.
Watching the Nets/Cavs game good damn game right now Cavs up 96-94 fourth quarter like 4:22 left

LeBron just went 33-6-11 on 64% yet still lost by 17 to the Pacers. They are an absolutely mess defensively and need better coaching too.

There is one player I want to mention, he use to play for the Lakers last season but he didn't get much playing time he was waive, and pick up by the Bulls he is on the rotation, and got the starting job which he was starting the last two games. I am talking about David Nwaba if he plays for other teams he is going to be a fan favorite, and he already is for the Bulls. He is not a good shooter but he plays hard, he plays with energy, fight for rebounds, and plays good defense he kinda reminding me of Ronnie Brewer one of the rare bright spot for the Bulls.
Speaking of Lauri Markkanen while still early but so far he is surprising me some things. He is much better rebounder than I thought will be he is now averaging like 9.3 rpg, and most of his rebounds he is getting on the defensive glass I thought he will average maybe 4, or 5 but he is much better rebounder. We see if that can keeps up though. His defense sin't as bad as advertised. Pretty impressive that he is productive without a playmaker which the Bulls have none at the moment. One of my concerns, well I will say one concern right now once Bobby Portis comes back, and whenever Niko comes back(Which there is a chance one of them is gone.) but if both come back Lauri minutes may decrease, or lose the starting job which I will be pissed if that is the case.

It’s official the Suns trade Eric Bledsoe to the Bucks for Monroe and a lottery first round draft pick.
Nice deal for the Bucks to add talent and they didn’t even have to give up Thon Maker nor Brogdon either l.

I just want to issue a formal apology to pduh for questioning his Pistons and SVG prediction. Props to him for that call. I then want to issue an "I told you so" in regards to Towns winning DPOY when he's been like the third worst big man in the league defensively and the Wolves in general aren't that great. The Bucks have been a fun roller coaster team to ride - I love that they got Bledsoe and really look forward to seeing what this team can do when Parker comes back healthy. I think they could be a top three team in the East which I will take at this point. The Lakers are up and down as well , Ball is hot and cold but he really needs to do something about his shot or he will NEVER live up to the hype. He doesn't need to become Steph Curry but just be able not to make a complete fool of yourself out there when you take a jumper. Or do what Simmons does and realize you can't shoot and do everything in your power to never have to shoot the ball. Speaking of Simmons , he and the Sixers might be the most fun team to watch/follow in the league right now. So many likable players from Simmons to Embiid to my favorite in Covington. So much relies on Embiid's health and availability but this team has the potential to a juggernaut very soon.

I think Lonzo's played okay so far. Shooting is fixable but he's doing other things.

So much relies on Embiid's health and availability but this team has the potential to a juggernaut very soon. To your defense still plenty of games Pistons could collapse any given moment but again I should accepted apologize, and take the credit quickly :lol: My prediction of DPOY of KAT is far off so yeah I was wrong on that. Never say Wolves are great but I do expect them to make a playoffs I believe I predict them to the sixth seed in the West their team defense have been very inconsistent, and Jimmy Butler is not having a very good season so far but they also make him as a third option while letting Wiggins and KAT take the load on offense. I pretty much forgot that Parker is still out with the injury, I don't expect him to turn around after come back a serious knee injury usually it may take for another season for him to get back to form he may show flashes but that is it. When is he expect to come back anyways? Lonzo Ball's aspect of his game remind me a whole lot of Jason Kidd early of his days even though Jason Kidd was having a good/better rookie season than Lonzo Ball so far but the aspect of their games are there, and similar. If anyone have LP such as myself check out the Sixers games as UT say it and he is right they are fun to watch right now. Embiid needs to stay healthy if he can stay healthy he can be the best center in the league, and maybe best player one of the best player in the leagues years to come. That is a big if though.

First time in his career, which is wild.
Also, with Blake Griffin now to miss 2 months, it's safe to say the Clippers can and should tank this season away. I don't think DJ plays the whole season with them, either. He'll probably end up on a playoff contending team Top 5 Pick?
