He'll trip on air and break his collarbone. You watch.


Or break his foot taking a free-throw.

But...don't care. It's regular season and we all know Bulls can't beat Lebron in the playoffs.

Kind of wish I had the League Pass to see teams like the TWolves or the Jazz with some nice young squads. Sure they'll lose and give up 1234234 points but those games might be fun.

Welcome back Bosh to a nice 21/10 debut after being sick. And Justice already in the rotation. And with a nice dunk.

Hmm...I'm liking what I'm seeing with the Bulls offense so far. But, only 2 games.

Warriors STILL undefeated and Philly still winless Porzingis killing it for NY. McHale out. Curry and Westbrook early MVP faves.

Hassan Whiteside with 2 triple doubles including blocks. Alonzo Mourning never did that once

damn, the Clippers had a 18 points lead on the Warriors and still lost (and they didn't even have to resort to the ol' "Hack-a-Jordan" routine)


I think Golden State may go all the way again this year.

and for Luke Walton, I think he's a better coach (while Steve Kerr is out) than he ever was as a player

How's his attitude been so far? I know Wade sort of called him out last season when he was getting into altercations that were costing the team.

Much improved attitude. Staying out of stupid fouls. In that 10 block game I think he got his first foul in like the 2nd half. If he keeps his current pace, he will get a max deal and it will be extremely difficult for us to go after Durant.

Good game with the Warriors and Bulls. Draymond Green is very underrated in the league.

Yup, Butler did a nice job defending the reigning MVP...but, they had no answer in the closing minutes to the Warriors' "closers"...man, that's a small but uber-skilled/fast group.

Watched some of their game last night. God they're so good. I would LOVE to see a series between them and the Spurs. Thank God I'll have cable by the playoffs.

I am really shocked that the Warriors actually weren't scheduled to play the Spurs earlier in the season. I think the Warriors and Spurs play in January, which is so far away!

But hey, who knows, sports is always about making money so I wouldn't be surprised if some calls are going their way since they are generating the most hype right now.

Warrior squeaked by last night, but still amazing.

Glad they're only a 1.5 hour drive. But of course tickets are pricey, unlike the garbage Sacramento Kings. 30 minutes drive to see garbage.


Oh, and I'm still about Kobe retiring.

Kobe shot 7/26....he was trying to put on a show for the fans. I assume that's how all of his last games will be.
