Steph passed Wilt to become the Warriors' all time scoring leader.

It was going to happen regardless but it still saddens me.
Huge congrats to Steph though!


It took 56 years to break a record set by a man who only played 5 and a half seasons for the Warriors.
Another accomplishment that will be forgotten. Chamberlain haters are worse than Jordan fan boys.

Y'all see that Luca buzzer beater last night?

[Ameriganastan]

Aldridge just retired.

[Odreria]

Aldridge just retired.

First I’ve heard of this, but what a career it’s been. Hope he has a long and happy retirement.

A shame lower seeds can't win MVP unless you statpad like Westbrook. Because Luka is the damn MVP.

King Douche is throwing a hissy fit over the play-in tournament. Tool.

[Shazbotdom]

I bet he'd be loving it if his team fell into that bubble.


Yes. He is the King of the Douches.

Yup. Only reason LeFraud no longer supports it is because he didn't expect to be fighting to stay out of the 7th or 8th seed himself lmfao

It's beautiful, isn't it? He's falling apart, his team is barely in and he's whining like a little bitch. Nice to see other people out there finally seeing this asshole for the conceited prick he really is.

From the article:
While it might sound a bit like sour grapes for these players to be complaining about something once they might be involved, LeBron, to his credit, has been outspoken about the idea for years. Back in 2018, when a play-in tournament was first proposed, LeBron was similarly critical.

Shhhhhhhh, just let them hate.

As a dubs fan I've been on the Fuck-Lebron train for awhile, hell even before we played him in the Finals, since "The Decision". Granted due to KD it'd be a bit hypocritical for me to use that as a reason to not like him now, but there's plenty of other reasons, and it sure as hell wasn't hypocritical at the time lol

And then he supports it in 2020. Only to rescind the support again now. Interestingly enough, that year the 4th seeded Cavs just barely eked into home-court advantage and they were just 6 games ahead of the 7th seed. Not to mention at the time he said that I'm pretty sure they very well could've easily ended up with the 7th or 8th seed

A-Rod of all people is in talks to buy the Timberwolves.

And now it's a done deal.

[Shazbotdom]

Welp. The Pels loss yesterday cements that they will not be making it into the Play-In Tournament for the NBA Playoffs. Although, with that injury bug that we had, I would have been worried if we did and someone got hurt during the playoffs.


There's always next season.

Meanwhile, my Spurs managed to just sneak into the play-in. Woo.

LeBron is perfecting whining into an art form.

[Dresderstan]

King Douche is throwing a hissy fit over the play-in tournament. Tool.

Throwing a bitch fit because his team is on the verge of being forced to play the Warriors/Grizzlies in the play in. Boo hoo LeBron, you had no issue when you knew you were gonna win last season because of the rigging that happened, now shut the fuck up eat a bowl of karma.

Ok Skip Bayless

Oh, come on Naz. Last season was fixed like they called Bob The Builder and you know it. They weren't gonna let anyone else win so they could milk that "For Kobe" narrative for all it was worth.

Or
The Clippers got outplayed by the Nuggets because of load management. Blew a 3-1 lead while leading in the final 3 games
The James Hardens choked away the whole franchise. Should have been finished off by Paul and the Thunder
The Blazers will never be a title contender. Dead in 5
Denver didn't have enough talent on the wings or bench to win. Whooped in 5
And Miami while talented and well coached were too inexperienced to outplay LeBron and Davis for an entire series. Put up a good fight and down in 6.

"Rigged"
Rigging implies they got bailed out by the refs in all of their series. Like the Shaq and Kobe era.

Unless Stern rose from the grave I doubt the league told the West to lie down and die for Kobe.

Which they did.

[Ameriganastan]

So, I need the Spurs to win to stay alive. And I need the Lakers to win so the Spurs don't have to play them if they beat Memphis...God, just saying I want the Lakers to one makes me feel ill.

Harden hardly got any free throws during that series. He was leaning in to guys and making them touch him and the refs still gave him nothing. That's how you know it's rigged.

You're defending Harden, your opinion could not be more invalid.

[Ameriganastan]

Trade DeRozan and trade him now. He completely fucked the Spurs tonight. Laying bricks like he was playoff Harden. Christ.
