Loved what I saw out of Kyrie last night.

He was unselfish. No Luka, no Maxi, (and obviously no Dorian or Spencer), rotating bench players, WE, not just Kyrie, pulled some incredible plays and smacked the shit out of Kawhi and LAC.

It's PROMISING, for sure.

Cautiously optimistic, for REAL.

Also, holy fuck @Self.Destructive.Pattern , Kevin Durant goes to Pheonix? Westbrook goes to fucking UTAH? And Russel in LAL?

And LAL is starting D Russel like, pretty much IMMEDIATELY, just like we did Kyrie. Like "oh, yeah it's fine: we practiced a little this morning"
It's actually on Saturday, but STILL.


This is truly the craziest NBA year ive ever witnessed for the Western conference.

I mean, combine all this with the fact that we've got guys who could have handily been the MVP not TOO many years ago who aren't even in the RUNNING.

4-8 place are all but tied.

Damn. Rest of this season is gonna be even crazier.

He looked Hella happy as well, hahaa. Cannot wait to see him and Durant go against each other, but I cannot believe the amount of 2nd picks that landed other teams key players... Like damn.

Lakers made a lot of great moves, no one eligible until Saturday so I expect a loss tonight against the Bucks lol.

Westbrook will not play a single minute for the Jazz. He'll get bought out and said he wants to go to the Heat or the Clippers who also made some big moves. Cannot to see how this all folds out!

So the Chief's win Turf Bowl I, huh.

[versusreality]

long time Nets fan chiming in:

I'm so glad Kyrie is gone. Talented as he is, he is toxic and draining. the honeymoon phase will end and he will sour another franchise. bet on it.

meanwhile, I'm happy with the trades we got. watching the Nets is FUN again.

Great Super Bowl for a change. I thought KC was done when Mahomes went down in the first half. They must've broke out the good stuff so that he could play after half time. You know they only give you that when you can't dance.

It was a good game, i don't like either team, but they gave a good showing and i figured Mahomes would win (of course when i'm right i didn't gamble, lol)

I feel your pain....

[henryeatscereal]

I feel your pain....

it's Murphy's Law: I got right the last two Superbowls, with no gamble; but of course when i gambled 2 o and 3 years ago, i got em wrong, lol...

I saw on reddit that the last Tubi commercial caused some, ah, consternation at bars and houses where people were drinking.

also the number of people also on reddit/youtube/twitter about how the game was rigged...Christ people are stupid.

That hold call at the end definitely looked fishy. But the player that got called for it admitted after the game that it was a hold.

There's XFL today, lol.

Rock made an appearance.
Rock did the XFL tag line.
And you know Rock got the fuck outta there.

You better watch what your candy ass says about the Rock. Now, do you smell what the Rock is cookin'?

[poinoup]

He never did cook me that 3 course meal he promised when I beat him at arm wrestling....

No March Madness fans here I take it? Has been an incredible tourney so far, with some massive lower seed upsets and several thrilling down to the wire/buzzer beater finishes. The greatest event in all of sports remains undefeated for now....unless the power conference AD's have their way eventually & ruin it by expanding it to 96 teams...or they just take their ball & go home & start their own tourney as we move towards 3 or 4 mega conferences in the next decade or so.

[allegate]

Wow, that's kind of wild. I logically knew it was March but haven't even thought once about brackets or anything like that. I've been working almost exclusively from home since January so haven't had a lot of people interaction.

It's been good. I got hooked on the World Baseball Classic though. That's been crazy, too. I've been having sleep trouble from chemo & was watching games live from Asia. Looks like USA going to lose to Venezula.

[chuckrh]

USA pulls one out & Altuve going to miss a few games. It's all good! (disclaimer: as a Mariners fan I don't care for the Asstros at all)

[elevenism]

So, yeah, I quit.

I STILL have this sinking feeling that Luka demanded the Kyrie trade.
And Kyrie is good!
But we already HAD a good team.

You can't trade away fucking 75% of your defense and a lot of your points from beyond the arc and just bring in a new cat, with 20 games left in the most competitive fucking season in Western Conference history.

That's what we did, and then said "go get 'em, tiger!"
We were fighting for fourth before the trade, and now we're fighting for TENTH.

I hope to GOD these cats weren't planning on winning shit THIS year.

Meanwhile...I'm playing PSP NBA 2K13 on my PSP emulator.
We.got Steve Nash back, and we're eyeing a trade for LeBron James.

OH, and I'm ALSO playing 2K11. We're 20-0.

At least that.

[GulDukat]

Boston vs. Heat, last night, wow.

[henryeatscereal]

Uncle Rico is much cooler than Rodgers, still not cool for the Jets!
