Can’t we all just set aside our differences and get mad at the officiating?

I just want to hold hands with bitter Lakers fans and talk about our favorite Swaggy P moments

As I said at the time, just massively full of it. Great work.
Last month, Kirk Herbstreit said he doesn't follow politics or pick sides.
Which was nonsense. Just last week, Herbstreit quietly headlined a fundraising dinner for Alabama's second-biggest PAC.
The next day, it sent $155,000 to Tommy Tuberville.

The first era of Thunder basketball had 3 straight contending seasons ended by injuries.
2013: OKC #1 seed. Westbrook injured by Beverley in 1st Round.
2014: OKC vs Spurs in the WCF. OKC swept season series 4-0. Ibaka gets hurt before the WCF.
2015: KD season ending injury.
The second era of Thunder basketball had a contending season ended by injury last season due to the JDub and Ajay injuries.
Came out of the gate this season finally fully healthy and blew out the Spurs and Nuggets.
Then lose JDub and Cason Wallace to injury in the third game.
OKC is still incredibly talented and resilient. They will still fight every night and still contend. But just a run of awful injury luck for the most talented team in the NBA.

Two starters 3 games into the season. Dub just got back from injury, Cason’s first season as a starter.
I don’t even know what to say.

In other news though they like absolutely need to make a trade. No single trade will make up for the losses or even come close to putting them in title favorite range again but I just don’t see how you go through the rest of the year with only 12 men on the regular roster. The two way guys only have a 50 game limit

Allowed, but they still have to be careful not to trigger the hard cap. And lux tax penalties are still punitive.
I wouldn’t bet on a HUGE move.

Obviously JDub is crucial to OKC’s success but maaaan he’s such a good dude. Really kind, awesome w fans and just wants to hoop. Hoping for a speedy recovery.

Shai chased it while he was in, but didn't stay in once Denver pulled the starters. Impressed with him and the org that they didn't keep him in.

A thorough, thinking-out-loud story about the odd situation at the Ringer, where a bunch of its podcasters have started Substacks, but nobody on the inside is explaining why that's happening, or why the website isn't the home of their writing.

Only 8 points of his 32 were assisted, man.
Genuinely an all-time isolation scorer.

Hi, I've put in some extensions to limit my access to scrolling and the dreaded for you page. My concern is that I'll miss out on cool things that are shared.
If you write/create something that you think is worth sharing about the NBA and want a bigger audience, PLEASE tag me in it. My favorite thing about social media was once that we could find all sorts of cool stuff and that's gone for the most part.
PLEASE send me your stuff.
