Wow that was a p. bad pass that Jimmy made look perfect.

lmao at that being a bad pass. It's not like perfect. But Almost any NBA player could jump and catch that. Also Jimmy stopped running and hesitated a bit while gauging it. If he had kept going and timed it better it wouldn't have had to be all one handed.

Dallas Mavericks: Generations

Dexo posted:

This is it.

With the 3 Alphas

Butler was able to learn from and get better by being around the elder accomplished Alpha in Wade. And Wade allowed Butler to say poo poo without getting laughed at.

Meanwhile Rondo was able to be the Alpha of the younglings. And protect them from the mean alphas and also stand up for them to the mean coach.


Edit: Wade gets a poo poo ton of money out of this btw

This is NBA canon right along side Delonte breaking up the first era of LeBron Cavs. It should also be considered NBA canon that Rondo turned into a disaster in Dallas as a form of protest after Charlie V beat him at Connect Four.

The Adidas Paul Zipser signature "Zipster" sneakers that simulate having an extra bone in the foot through rigid carbon fiber and durable foam are not in stock in ANY store in the chicago area. He's a phenom

Even though the Bucks lost, I feel pretty solid about everything. They came back from two monster runs in the 3rd and 4th from the Raptors and still almost took the lead at the end of the game. Man that Brogdon 3 was so close. Other positive was seeing Makers D brought the Bucks back in the game in the 4th. Man what a draft.

Also the Bucks definitely had nothing to do with the MAGA hat. The owners are huge Democrats and Bill Clinton had agreed to call Greg Monroe to recruit him if they needed it.

I'm a Bucks fan, actually. I'm fully expecting to get bounced by the Raptors but I'm 100% pleased with how they played this year, anything beyond making the playoffs is a bonus.

The series win probability for a team up 2-0 is something like +90%.

Even if he doesn't put up the boxscore numbers, he is a positive player. If he's the fifth best player on your team, you are doing well.

I think the biggest takaways I got from watching the Bulls/Celtics live at the garden was that Amir Johnson is utter crap and the first 3 or so minutes that Olynyk was on the court he was so bad that I thought his teammates were going to murder him.

Also Robin Lopez owns and I'll never say anything bad about him again.

The Raps are so good at letting the other team miss good looks while hitting terrible shots. I think they can pull it off even tho they were basically a few missed open 3s away from being down 0-2. They really need to disrupt Milwaukee early offense. The Bucks aren't too good when it gets slow but they scored so many easy points early in the shotclock even on Raptor makes.
