It would be awesome to move up to 15-18.

Lol.

On a serious note I want no part of gay on the caves. His contract is not worth it. I'll take the lumps this year And hope we can get Muhammad. By next year we should be a playoff team on the rise. Even with Durant Seattle/OKC was god awful for two years.

The Lakers are gonna miss the playoffs and win the draft lottery. Favorite this tweet.

Tweet from Michael Smith.


With David Stern in charge...

KD seems to have more of a chip on his shoulder this year. I like it.

The Lakers are straight bad. Straight bad. If they make the playoffs I'll be shocked.

PTI said the "Mendoza line" is 46-48 wins.

They mentioned what they would have to finish from this point on and it doesn't look good. I love it.

I want them to make the 8 seed solely for the purpose of it benefiting the Cavs. Their chances do not look good, though.

Kings are about to be sold to a group from Seattle with the intention of the Sonics playing at Key Arena in 2013-14 and 2014-15 before moving into a new arena.

I just saw the Bill Simmons tweet about this and assumed this was the case. Honestly, good for the Seattle fans. Sacramento is kind of a joke of a sports town, and they have plenty of surrounding teams to cheer for.

The Maloofs can go back to not caring about their team and run their casino...or should I say, keep doing what they are doing.

There are three players I wanted to see play in person

Kobe
LeBron
Melo

I went to Lakers Cavs in 2011, Pacers Heat in 2012 playoffs, and have tickets to tomorrow's Pacers/Knicks game. David Stern just suspended Melo for the game for the KG thing. Fuck him. What a bitch move.

I've seen videos like that before. It's usually staged.

Great from a comedy standpoint. But that mascot lost his job, and that fan will be getting some $$$ if real.

I think it was a Jazz game a few years ago, mascot did a similar thing. Came out later that it was a member of their spirit team in the opposing teams jersey or some shit.

Also, the refs in the Lakers/Spurs game are TERRIBLE.

Huge Night for Jared Sullinger, C's get the win & he finished 12 Points, 16 Rebounds, 3 Assists, 1 Steal & 1 Block in 34 Minutes (Most on the team) & Finished a +24 -- Played pretty well vs Gortat & Scola
