Coby White is spanking Temetrius out there tonight. He looks like another good addition from the 7 spot in the draft.

Dwight Howard is so washed. Did GM LeBron insist on this signing? I can't see any front office wanting this dried out husk of a human being on their team.

Brown and Tatum each answer w/ 25 points tonight in win v. Toronto. :mrgreen:
They are great for those nights every 4/5 games. No one will be happier than me if they get consistent. Definitely some positives from last night. Most importantly Kemba's postgame with Abby was refreshing compared to Kyrie's narcissistic self aggrandizing nonsense from last year. Brown and Tatum seem to be filling out and getting their man bodies. They went to the hoop a lot more. Hayward didn't seem stuck in mud last night one drive surprised me by how fast he turned the corner. Kemba got hot late. Still a lot of one of those guys bringing the ball up going around a pick and shooting. When they moved the ball they were dangerous. Interior defense is a real concern too many layups.

Ha. He is one tall dude. He's 7'4", and he was standing on the other side of a counter from me. Now I know how people behind me at concerts feel.

Temetrius blocking Kyrie's game winner tonight was great.

Another bad game for Herro. We'll see what Kennards got tomorrow night.

I'm not going to lie, I thought Jimmy Butler was gay. I'm pretty surprised at the amount of time he's missing to be with whatever THOT he had a kid with though.

John Wall has done Adidas a favor by being injured and not giving their gear his exposure. Change my mind.

:lol:
"Another" is kinda strong, isn't it? I mean he's no Kendrick Nunn right now, but he's already had some good moments.

Last night was a frustrating loss, looked a lot like the Heat of the last couple of years where they just can't close teams out. (On the other hand Wiggins catching fire and hitting 4 threes in a row is like one of those fluke acts of nature against which there is no defense.) This is where I'm actually optimistic that Jimmy Butler will help quite a bit, they've need a guy who can create his own shot at the end of games so hopefully that works out. I guess we'll find out. This team has been really fun to watch this first week of the season, hopefully Butler doesn't mess that up.

You just typed out a whole lot about a lottery team for the next 6 years

The Heat will make the playoffs this year and apparently they believe 32 year old Jimmy Butler partnered with one of his buddies will make them a super team in 2022.
