I mean, didn't Kyrie already destroy the Mavs? Top 2 player in the league and didn't make the playoffs?


Yeah, it was Kyrie's fault the Mavs didn't make the playoffs.

They tanked to keep the pick rather then go to play in game.
Kyrie was at this best to get his extension. So I'd say he did not.
Harden? He played pretty well last year. He screwed himself by not extending with BKN. Then again with Philly.
What happened with him and Morey is really unknown.
Embiid might be just fine staying.

And if you have seen any pics of him or him walking into arena for Clips last night - he appears in excellent condition - his legs looked very much in shape….not a fat boy because he knew he was going to Clips.

He needs to give a TED Talk on forcing trades to desired locations.

Nobody should be giving props for this. It's an embarrassment and a horrible example to younger fans. Harden is basically teaching that if you act unprofessional and cry like a baby you will get your way. Personally I despise players and people like him and hope he fails miserably.

Are Pete Buttigieg and Brad Stevens the same person?

Derrick Rose To Miss At Least One Week With Knee Soreness
November 1st 2023 at 7:41pm CST by Arthur Hill
Grizzlies guard Derrick Rose is experiencing soreness in his left knee and will be reevaluated in a week, according to Damichael Cole of The Commerical Appeal.

Coach Taylor Jenkins provided an update on his condition before tonight’s game in Utah. Rose will miss the team’s three-game road trip, and his earliest possible return is a November 8 home contest against Miami.

Rose, 35, who signed a two-year contract with Memphis this summer, had appeared in the first four games for the winless Grizzlies, serving as the backup point guard. He’s averaging 8.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 17.8 minutes per night while shooting 32.4% from the floor.

Injuries have been a constant for Rose ever since he suffered an ACL tear during the 2012 playoffs. He played just 27 games for the Knicks last season, but he wasn’t a regular part of coach Tom Thibodeau’s rotation even when he was healthy.

Desmond Bane is likely to become Marcus Smart‘s primary back-up at the point while Rose is out of action, Cole adds. Cole suggests another option is two-way player Jacob Gilyard, who has been the starting point guard for the G League Memphis Hustle.

Wish him the best. That 2020 half season was magical by Rose.

Player empowerment. It shows younger fans that if you work hard, hone your craft and deliver the market will support supply and demand. Is he an asshole? Yes. YOu don’t have to like him or what he does, but respect for his accomplishments. Im the same on Kyrie Irving.
ANd lets not forget Ewings deparature was a hissy fit itself.

Exactly….I agree. It’s teaching young players to own their career. Showing that when you are an established player or employee, utilize your power and take control of your career. I see nothing wrong with that.

Sure it sucks as a fan. Tough cookie. Let’s see what the new clippers look like now. Will be a good challenge when we play them.

I watched this game live and it was a crazy comeback. I think wembas confident grew after this win, especially since he scored the go ahead bucket (I believe) to win the game. Even though vassell carried the team.

KD alone wasn’t enough and he’s a top 3 player in the nba. So we can’t complain when Brunson and Randle who shoots less than 30% combined wasn’t enough to beat d.Mitchell and his g league squad.

Nalod @ 11/2/2023 2:32 PM
Fans often think a player is paid for what he did.
GMs pay for what they think they will do.
Vassell seems like the latter.
As was Brunson when we signed him.

New City versions


Some of them kinda suck, some are just boring. Love the knicks throwback. Indy and Nets are just silly.
Toronto are so ugly they are cool.
