Lol yeah I saw this earlier and just laugh at how terrible it was. I mean it's Jason Whitlock so I wasn't too surprised by it. He is garbage.

Denver put up 132 with 24 three's. Absurd.

Some dude named Juancho Hernangomez who averages 3 PPG, put up 27. Will Barton scored 10 over his average, Jameer Nelson 15 points over his average. They also played without 4 of their 8 top scorers.

And Jokic goes for a measley 17-21-12.

GSW was also without Klay and Livingston. It still is always nice to see them lose though.

LOL. We all know I love to bash SJWs, but this is an unbelievably dumb hot take. Right up there after GSW was up 3-1 and Klay had his dumbass comments directed at Lebron. People jumped on that bandwagon to make it seem like Lebron has never overcome anything.

Saw that too and McCaw and Clark played well going for 37 points(I don't know their +/- though). Curry, Durant and Green combined for 41.

Legler mentioned last night on SC that last year when Curry struggled like this on 3's, he came back to hit 10 in the next game. Good luck to Sacramento.

Orlando is finalizing a trade to send Serge Ibaka to Toronto, league sources tell @TheVertical.

Orlando has agreed to trade Serge Ibaka to Toronto for Terrence Ross and a 2017 first-round pick, league sources tell @TheVertical.

They're (Sacramento) going to lose by 20+ points but not because of anything Curry did. This is what's frustrating about them. Curry and Green score 15 points on 4-17 shooting. But their other two all-stars carry them with amazing games. SMH.

Yeah that part made me lol too. You have 7 transfers right when you start, a good portion of them D1 players, and you didn't recruit them? Riiiiight.

Exactly why Lorenzo Romar still has a job. He's got a former player as an assistant (Will Conroy) who is best friends with Brandon Roy, who can keep that pipeline open to keep going to the Huskies despite Romar being a complete dog shit coach. He openly sells that he's a successful black man who has a close relationship with God and who will "raise these kids right." It sells the recruits a great bill of goods, and then they just go pro after 1 year.

Probably not but it was bullshit how the ref basically waited to see if the shot was going to go in before he blew the whistle. If the NBA has a major problem, it's the officiating.

Shitty All-Star Celebrity game on....Jason Williams is playing and turned 40 today. White Chocolate was filthy back in the day. He and Randy Moss in high school were awesome together.

If I had to bet, I would say you gained 50 lbs for another reason

Those rosters are a joke. And why is ESPN forcing Jemelle Hill and Michael Smith down our throats?

I know right. I can't even watch the 6:00 PM Sportscenter anymore. Smith isn't terrible but she is an idiot race baiter. They wonder why they are losing 10,000 subscribers a day.
