    Funny thing is that with AD out, Kuzma would be the second best player on that team

    Ja’s bounce is inhuman. We sure he’s not alien or something?

    Second youngest team in the NBA, basically without a full roster healthy all year….beating the ever living fuck out of the Lakers on the road for their franchise best 9th win in a row.

    EDIT...until the Grizzlies bench tried to give the game away in garbage time.

    I think Ja has more bounce, Rose was faster though.

    The Grizz are playing great and not taking anything away from them.

    But this is literally everyone's situation. Without looking I highly doubt Memphis has it worse than other teams

    They had’t really been playing well and a loss was going to happen soon. Sucks it was against such an average team with this rough stretch coming. Demar has been looking gassed lately.

    I'm sure there were dozens of other people on the verge on aneurysms, but that shit Draymond pulled last night is still fucking with my head. Like did he change clothes at half?

    thought I saw peak Warriors' cringe when they were taking turns flexing on Kyle Guy's Heat last week, but my God. GS is elite cringe

    I really don’t get the pushback from very online nba fans about Klay’s return. 2 awful injuries in a row that could have ended some careers and people are mad bc it’s promoted too much? and he is one of the most grounded guys in pro sports , just seems miserable to let that annoy you

    It's been more than 2 years, there was no guarantee he'd ever play again, and he's what at worst the 4th best player in franchise history? Let the baby have his bottle. It's ok to celebrate things sometimes.

    he was the third best player for most of those title teams and it was promoted like Michael Jordan from Space Jam returned to basketball. I’m fine with the team and local media getting excited but the stuff from national media was way overblown

    third best player on that team is still a top ~25 player of the last decade coming off of two really shitty injuries

    I’m not a fan of any team specifically and i think it’s pretty great that one of the best shooters ever is playing again after all of that

    A lot of it is the media stuff is tied to people liking his personality. And people just love the Warriors (which I know you enjoy).

    The Lakers aren't remotely covered the same as the Warriors by the national media and bloggers, everything Warriors related has this whole circle jerk "Isn't this all great?? We should all enjoy this!" tone to it as though someone who roots for the Heat or Lakers or Knicks would give a flying fuck what happens to Golden State.

    I know you hate the constant MLB "This is what the league needs because things suck right now" style of media but I'll take that 10/10 over THIS. LEAGUE. and all that comes with that
