That drive from the perimeter to the fade away tho


PEACE

Just saw this now. He going to be 3rd best in NBA this season?

[capable_keL]

MVP!!

[Reason]

anthony davis will be the clear #1 player in the nba as soon as lebron declines for at least a year or two

[Reason]

dante exum is exceeding even my high expectations, kid is a stud

If Bron defers to Love/Kyrie during the regular season and Durant is out for a real amount of time and PG is gone and D Rose isn't 100% its not crazy to think that AD would be the best player in the league this year.

I have him as second. I don't think all of those things will happen. Bron will be dominant in Cleveland.

Exum is my favorite player from this draft. He does look lost at times on D and is not great at handling ball pressure yet, but I'd be shocked if he didn't turn into a all-star at some point. Australian Penny.

It's real funny to play 2k15 and hear kerr say what he didn't like about Dubs last year.

[naturalborn103]

Byron Scott going to keep up this anti 3 point thing all season? Hope so.

byron scott is the worst head coach who gets consistently hired

so fucking annoying how bad he is and how he keeps getting jobs

One of the comments on Deadspin that I thought was hilarious and extremely on-point.

Paul Rudd is the James Harden of movie stars/comedy actors. If he's leading the way, you're probably in trouble. But if he's your third/fourth best piece, not only is he probably killing that role, but you're also enjoying that movie.

Paul Rudd was great in Our Idiot Brother though

eh, I wouldn't call being a 54 win team in the West being in trouble. If they had a better coach they would of gone to at least the 2nd round.

And every movie he's in. Paul Rudd is great, in general. Yes homo.

blockhead's public and undying love for paul rudd is so refreshing in this cynical world

Scott says teams tend to live and die by 3s. "I don't believe it wins championships. Gets you to the playoffs."

Crazy..

jabari/wiggins is about to go down

[Reason]

tristan thompson grew over offseason and is now 6'10

[capable_keL]

Jabari Parker will win ROY unanimously

[drobizhek]

Gortat rocking that Zangief look.

saw that live, he barely tried, he was jogging going into that jump

The NBA logo being on the back of the jersey looks so ghetto.

Inspired by the Grantland league pass rankings going up today, here's my league pass All-League Pass team, excluding established superstars and guys who will play like 20 nationally televised games.

G- Oladipo
G- The Suns back court trio
F- Giannis
F- The Pistons front court trio
C- Nerlens

Also, whats gonna get lost in the "D-Rose is back" hype is that the Bulls are ready to prosper. Not because their former MVP may have returned to form, or because they shed the dead weight of Carlos Boozer, or even because they added Pau Gasol. But because, and only because, Tony Snell finally cut those struggle braids.

Following this press conference after the Board of Gov meeting, where they shot down anti-tanking legislation. And I know he's not perfect, because no commissioner is, but Silver comes across as such a G.

Crazy that as many GMs would start a franchise with Anthony Davis as they would KD. Also notable that they think Pau going to Chicago is a bigger deal than KLove joining the Cavs.

the 1 non Lebron vote (Pau) had to be Cavs GM (not allowed to vote for your own players: Lebron, Love)
