So the Olympic Channel is playing the Dream Team games from 1992. Angola vs USA is amazing. 108-46  I forgot Chris Mullin was in this game. 46-1 run by the USA. Barkley is just a dominant force. Laettner is getting all the steals. What a bizarre game. It's actually almost hard to watch because its not in HD and i guess this is basically experiencing what its like to actually need glasses or something

Lockback posted:RPM has a bunch of guys between Irving and IT (who is the worst). Guys like DJ Augustin, Shroeder, Trey Burke. Also IT has some daylight between him and Kyrie in terms of points given. Oh I know, we've talked about the relative irrelevance of pg defense about 100 times in the last year. I think I said starters so Trey Burke doesn't count. I remember when people were making Rondo comps for Schröeder. I guess Augustin was starting in front of Payton. I don't remember anything about Orlando last year except for big jump dunker Aaron Gordon finally moving to PF at the end of the season and putting up great stats. There's always the possibility of Kyrie playing tougher defense when it matters, which we've seen tiny flickers of. But he's such a disciple of late stage Kobe that I doubt he or Deroazan will ever do it regularly. In unrelated matters, I just looked at the Clippers roster. It's going to be interesting to see if Milos Teodosic can do anything or if it's just going to be Beverly with point forward Blake running the offense.

The Clippers had a decent off-season all things considered. But it's amusing seeing Reddit Clippers fans rave about how they finally have depth and completely ignore the fact that they lost Reddick and Paul

Plus the slumlord owner wasn't gonna pay anyways. why did Chris Paul get the blame for this? bledsoe got rid of 2 pgs when he got his own team, so maybe he, or the clippers were the problem.

Bill Simmons writes almost exactly like how he would speak if he talked to himself in the mirror, which made reading every page of The Book of Basketball one of the worst slogs I've ever experienced. I read it all though. Following that up with Seven Seconds or Less was such a nice change of prose-pace.

He brings enough offense to make him worth a rotation slot. Maybe a steal for a minimum contract. Edit: Chicago worst team in the NBA.

The Celtics are either going to be missing their starting PG for a while or have an entirely new team and will probably struggle at the start, really don't see them winning 56-57 games this year. The year after sure
