2016-17 Running NBA Thread

Sounds like the game was quite the clown show.

I think a fair case can be made that Kobe getting 81 under legit 2006 conditions against a modern era defense was, in reality, a far more impressive accomplishment than whatever the hell happened in that Hershey barn that night in 1962.

 

Radio call of the fourth quarter:

Meanwhile, Warriors not only 0-1 in the post-Jose Calderon era, but now on their first two-game losing streak in two seasons.

 

Lowest point total of the season in 94-87 loss. Only the third time they haven't scored 100.

Curry is 4 for 31 from three-point range in the last three games. He never slumps like that.

 

I just may get my Warriors UNDER 67 wins after all. Had written that off.

 

It's nice to see Kyrie playing at an elite level. Cavs looks very good tonight against the Hawks.

 

Meanwhile, never a dull moment in Los Angeles.

I kind of felt sorry for Jim after the firing, but this is pathetic. I guess maybe I'd fight to the bitter end if I was in his position but, as a Lakers fan, it feels like we're in the Twilight Zone.

 

Try being a 49ers fan ever since Eddie D. got ousted. But perhaps they are following the master when it comes to family business:

 

LeBron is something else, man.

Cavs are killing it.

 

106-88. After 3.

Cavs have made 20-something 3's.

 

Bill Veeck wrote two books, the best of which was "Veeck as in Wreck", which I recommend both as a good read and the best book on the business of sports I have ever read. But in one of his books, Veeck advised to never leave a franchise to your children because it will lead to the family to stop talking to each other. I think history has shown the wisdom of that advice.

 

I no longer understand what "disrespect" means.
