Calabro out as Blazers play by play guy. The Bulls hired Adam Amin, which is fine I guess. But man, I'd love to have Kevin C as my guy.

It really did make the Sonics like twice as enjoyable as they otherwise might have been.

2 in the cake 1 in the pudding FOREVER.

I hated the way Allen kicked the local guys out to bring in Calabro, but can’t deny how great he is. Came to love him after a season or 2.

Also, it’s starting to feel like this Orlando restart thing may be dead in the water..

How in the hell does LeBron James let JR Smith back on his team again?

Marcus Smart thinks Tatum is on track to be the greatest, or one of the greatest players of all time. Meanwhile, Rozier didn't even realize Jordan three peated twice until watching the last dance.

Fuck these guys

Were you well versed on 1975 basketball growing up?

Their comments made me feel old and then reflect.

predictions:

one by one NBA teams fall ill until whole teams must bail from the 'season'

NBA will trudge onward with those teams that remain

eventually half-teams will sicken but the demand for basketball must live on

teams will be merged based on who remains healthy

as the remaining players fall ill one after another, eventually the playoffs are re-aligned to a series of 1-on-1 pickup games

LeBron, who has been secretly playing ill but beating his daily Covid tests through use of a fake nose (courtesy friends at digital underground) musters enough strength on day 33 of his rapidly advancing illness to vanquish a healthy J.J. Barea, final score 146-4; dedicating his victory to the people of los angeles, black mamba institute, black lives matter, coca cola, sprite, fanta, nike, foot locker, top ramen, mr clean magic eraser, and a host of other worthy sponsors and potential sponsors; only to return home to find that television channels stopped airing NBA content weeks ago in favor of re-runs of 'The Last Dance' in advance of Michael Jordan's forthcoming Bravo reality show 'The Real Pointguards of Las Vegas'

We're definitely getting closer.

(Kawhi didn't quit btw, he's just traveling to Orlando a couple days after the rest of the team.)

Oh, then nevermind.

If actual contending teams are full strength, no asterisk.
