Okafor/Noel career will probably play out similar to Eddy Curry/Tyson Chandler.

Ignoring everything else about this vicious attack on Okafor, this is more proof Seth the only good Curry.

Well, at least it wasn't Delante taking out Lebron's mother again; we don't need the drama.

After the Godfather thing if I'm the Celtics I'm gifting him a book called The Stepfather with Delonte's face on the cover. WWE shit like that should happen in real life.

Celtics should give Steph a book called The Stepgrandfather in that case

Damn..
Somebody should do that in the ECF.
Then get torched by LeBron the rest of the way.
Good lord lol.
I'll forever be salty that the bobcats/hornets didn't take a chance with seth curry. he went to duke so you know he was well coached in college and he's fucking dell curry's son. draft fucking sean may but pass on seth? cmon

I'm a Lakers fan.
Warriors gaf, how we doing fam? I was at Disneyland all day yesterday, the timing was perfect, tonight I'm thinking a little Horizon to unwind and skip the games. Maybe open my Kindle for the first time in a week, skipping all sports podcasts as well. Didn't even know they got Matt Barnes until just now.

I meant in the aftermath of the tragedy that struck in Washington. I assume Durant will have an above the knee amputation this week so... just checking in on people.

Still a little depressed.
This team was really fun to watch and even the sheer novelty of Kevin Durant in a Warriors jersey hadn't worn off for me, so to lose all that for the next month or two is a bummer. Also, losing a star two years in a row to an MCL sprain on super random, freak plays (Zaza falling and Steph slipping on the Montiejunas sweat) is pretty annoying.
But Warriors being underdogs is honestly what I'm used to, so I'm still excited to see how the Splash bros and Draymond will respond, even if our title expectations have changed. Also happy for KD that this wasn't a more serious injury and shouldn't bother him in future seasons.

I tried In-N-Out for the first time today.
Pretty good.

the fuck...aren't you a lakers fan?
In LA and you never had it before??

I don't know, I just never bothered.
They are all over where I am, though. Being in Arizona right now, they have three in Tucson alone.
Good for you, now go to the real king of fast food chains: Habit Burger. They opened a Shake Shack here, I went once and promptly returned to Habit. If the lines weren't such a killer it would be closer, but Habit would probably still win out.
For any Warriors fans who need a pick-me-up, just scroll down this page for a few minutes: https://twitter.com/Thisdayinsuck

TACOS! Lakers and fast food go together like Celtics and undersized guards who can't shoot.

In-N-Out is overrated
Will you be there tomorrow to see RoY candidate Jaylen Brown take on beanstock Ingram?
I will!
Did not realise what a stacked roster the Cavs have now with the latest signings, is there anyway they don't win it all? Any team that comes out of the west is going to be battered and if it is the warriors, you don't know what shape Durant it going to be in
And over a 7 game series, I just don't see LeBron and Kyrie losing

I think this is the best team LeBron has ever had. The Cavs roster as currently constructed has everything but an elite rim protector.
The problem is the Warriors roster is still better. Reminds me of the 98 Jazz-Bulls, the Jazz team was pretty clearly the better team that year, but Michael Jordan just willed his team to victory by being the best player on the planet. LeBron is going to have to do that. If Durant isn't 100% though I think the Cavs should be favored.
As someone who is not a GSW fan but is a fan of watching Curry going nuts, I don't mind too much at all
same
fact. people talk about that place like it isn't just a fast food joint.

Well, they said Durant just didn't want to play in Washington... now he didn't have to.
but if he amputates, he can just attach Nate Robinson as a prosthetic
But I think we'll be all right in the short term.
If we can hold it down this week, then all I'm worried about next week is Boston and SA.
Hopefully Curry can activate Super Saiyan status and go 2016 regular season for us for the rest of the regular and post season. then we have nothing to worry about.

Idea on how to replace/improve current lottery system
Honestly a pretty impressive idea, overall. I think it would still need some kinks to fix out, but it seems like a massive improvement over the current system.

The best way to improve the lottery/draft is to get rid of that bullshit entirely and open up the free market.
Short of that, I'd still like to see them institute some kind of penalty for teams that are complete garbage for multiple years. Ping pong balls should be weighted more for how many years you've been in the lottery.

Wouldn't that promote intentional tanking?

So we can have the awesome competitive balance we have in European football?
NBA has a salary cap, unlike Euro football

Can you have a free market and a salary cap?
