Shady Clippers trying to sneak in an illegal sub.

Damn what a play. PG missing key free throws

That was...perfect.

Imagine if that video came out last summer, the covidiots would be having a goddamn heart attack with thousands of screaming people in an indoor setting.

This goes to show you how much fucking bullshit covid is.

Ayton looking like he was worth the #2 pick, and is turning out to be a prime time bigman on a winning team. Good for him.

You realize he was the first pick and Bagley was the 2nd pick right?

Oh yeah thats right.

Well I guess he was worth a 1st too at this point.

Yeah Ayton is really efficient and solid on defense too. He's not Luka but I thought the pick was pretty defensible at the time even if I'd have gone with Luka. Bagley at 2 really feels like Sam Bowie all over again though.

I forgot that was the Luka draft.

yeah, I mean, I dont think anyone at this point in time, would say they would have drafted anyone but Luca with no.1 pick. But Ayton would most def be 2.

edit: damn Trae Young was in the draft as well. That 2018 class was stacked at the top. Michael Porter Jr was drafted that year as well.

What happened to Bagley, is he on the bench somewhere?

The Bucks coach is so bad. This shouldn't be a close game at all.

I mean even at the time most people were on Luka 1st. I was just saying that Ayton was a defendable pick. Bagley at 2 was wild though.

I'm enjoying trae young being a heel and taunting other teams and their crowds on his way through the playoffs, mentally tough





Suns / Hawks Finals would be fun

Dude is a stud the problem is the Hawks just aren't very fun too watch (for me).

Almost all night it felt like the Bucks should have been blowing out the Hawks, but here we are. Shaq for whatever reason keeps defending the use of Lopez in the game when it's pretty clear he's useless out there.

Why doesnt Trae Young get a haircut?

Maybe this will be like his early career look akin to LeBron with a headband, or Richard Hamilton without the mask. People will look back and be like "lol remember when Trae Young used to have that ridiculous hair-do?" Because man, it looks SO BAD. Its like he is halfway homeless with that cut, he gets tapered up, but then just lets his thin ass hair stay wild up top. He needs to unlock his true self, because that sure as hell isnt it. When he settles down with a real woman she will make him cut that shit.

I too enjoy him being a heel. Draymond Green said straight up that he is glad people are starting to realize that Trae is a massive shit talker. He is doing an incredibly adept job at it too, I must say, as he does it subtly, and has a way about him where people root for him because his game is fun to watch and he is so young. The media lets him get away with it and doesnt portray him as a villain, or a loud mouth type guy, they just go along with the ice trae shit and he goes under the radar, meanwhile talking a collasal amount of shit on the court.

I bet most guys dont like the kid. But I bet he gives no fucks, he is playing with a MASSIVE chip on his shoulder. I think that is what is driving him to success as well as his penchant for talking trash. He must feel like he wasnt getting the respect he deserved coming out of the draft or something. Who knows, maybe he isnt, but it sure looks like he is playing like he has something to prove.
