If your favorite part of basketball isn't dunks and blocks then you're not a real fan and you need to go watch baseball or something.

My favorite part is chase down blocks in the 4rth quarter of finals game 7 against the man who stole your finals mvp with the game in the balance in a feat of athletic supremacy that shook all.

Seeing a defender get his feet set and maintaining verticality is the most exciting thing about basketball.

That's nice of him. I wonder if LBJ has the killer instinct to go to the finals for seven straight years.

Thad Young is worth the 20. Marco Bellinelli is worth the 22. This does not jive with me.

Yeah, assuming he hits anywhere near his career averages and last year wasn't a bellwether I'm ok with it. Probably better than anyone they were going to grab at 22, in any case. I guess this means they're saying goodbye to Courtney Lee, though.

He shot above 40% from 3 all of twice in his career. He's a good 3pt shooter but he's not lights out and if you don't reign him in he will take a LOT of dumb shots. Close out hard on him and watch him do dumb things off the dribble

I am excited to see who the cool teams The Bucks and Timberwolves draft. I am also excited for the best 2k myGM team The Philadelphia 76ers to hopefully not gently caress it up. Trust the process, my friends.
