where wade

Heat: Wade will accompany the team on its trip to Brooklyn and is day to day. Wade has been doing "corrective exercises," something that recently hired Heat assistant athletic trainer Wes Brown emphasized when he worked with players at the University of Miami. ... Monday's game at Brooklyn completes Miami's fourth back-to-back in a span of just over two weeks.

shd be fine

season is living up to the hype

@BaxterHolmes: I asked Byron if he's ready to scrap his entire defensive scheme and start over: "Getting close."

xp those photos are a perfect distillation of this season so far

lolllll that vine is absurd

if Kobe's head doesn't go scanners in the hawks game on Tuesday, regardless of outcome, I feel like he's gonna get in a fight on Wednesday against the rockets

got tickets to see him when he comes to dallas on friday. looking forward to watch more straws fall on the back of this weary camel

from last night:

Anthony Slater @anthonyVslater
Lotta chirping between Thunder and Rockets right now. Kevin Durant repeatedly to Dwight Howard: "You're a pussy"
9:11 PM - 16 Nov 2014

ah damnit didnt see jordan already posted that my B

its still good tho

important also to remember durant was sitting on the sideline in street clothes while all this went down

haha yup

i feel like we can make a case for the rockets as the most hateable team in the NBA, above lakers, knicks and miami

its true everyone hates the rockets and those other teams are too depleted to really get upset about these days

other than harden howard morey who is hateable on the rockets? the rest seem pretty chill to me

Other than the face of the Rockets

yep

the clippers have like eight hateable guys

i mean, no one hates ariza, i guess. papanikolaou looks kinda puncheable.

w/ the clips its like, yeah, everyone hates CP3 (i don't, honestly, but i also don't root for teams that face them on the reg)...barnes and crawford after that i guess? i like blake. do people really hate deandre?

everyone hates blake, cp3 is a pest, deandre seems like a telephone tough guy. matt barnes i like but he is pretty hated

anyone who hates cp3 prob doesnt get basketball sorry entire ilh message bord

o word i'm in the clear then

hawes?

i hate cp3 idgaf. appreciate his game tho (minus the shenanigans)

cp3 is great, but he's a weasel. if he's playing your team it's easy to hate on him

Matt Barnes seems kind of reigned in on the nu-clippers, I find him much less hatable now

i will give a special dispensation to warriors fans who have had to deal w the lil guy owning the hell out of them for the last few years

The clippers have a lot of dudes with bitchy gameface

barnes is hilarious and disgusting looking much too ridiculous to actually hate

he's eased up on all the flagrant fouls too

barnes was an asshole to my friend in high school

barnes looks like the guy you knew in high school who sold weed and had a bad rep but was actually not that bad a dood

harden is just like, the most smug motherfucker alive PLUS the fact that 55% of his offensive production comes from getting to the line is so irritating. he can shoot aside from that, for sure, but his PPG drops by a third if not a half if you magically eliminate the ability to draw FTs. drawing fouls is part of the game of course (derozan much) but his overreliance on it requires playing in a p weaselly way.

/endrant

poly are you serious thats hilarious/weird if true

everyone hates blake, cp3 is a pest, deandre seems like a telephone tough guy. matt barnes i like but he is pretty hated

yeah, typical jockish bully stuff

ballmer sucks

(not as much as the previous guy of course)

billy crystal sucks

looks like ur trying to buy a basketball team

clippers-warriors is a good rivalry i like both teams and they embody their respective metro areas accurately

lakers finally have gone full norma desmond, a joy to see honestly. they should screen their games at that cool graveyard.

nice contrasting uniforms, both embody the california ethos too in their spotty application of rigor
