What no windhorst is bought and paid for, when he sighed deeply and said "something happened" on the Simmons pod that's as much Lebron realness as we will ever get from that guy

Also did any of you hear him go on zach lowes pod and spend FIFTEEN MINUTES defending his anti Riley curry stance, my god his main thing was its not professional and gets in the way of him doing his job, how about this let's embrace the one cool little flair of personality the NBA lets the players get away with at this point and maybe your job should be a way to figure out how to get good good answers with oh no a toddler in the room and if you can't hack that good thing you weren't a war correspondent or court reporter or something

he should think about covering baseball, a sport where fun is institutionally discouraged

I listened to the Lowe/windbaghorst pod against my better judgment while subwaying to the grocery store yday - it wasn't bad once they started talking about actual games; even windhorst had to admit "yea this cavs team will get washed by gsw if they don't make adjustments" but yea the sanctity of basketball pressers is not a vested interest of most basketball writers even he gots to chill

lol fuckin delly's face in those presser photos, the epitome of a dude with just enough rudimentary intelligence to understand it will never, ever be this good again

Legit having panic attacks over thinking abt dellavedova and steph

hawks shd prob preemptively take him out in game four to preserve the sanctity of the league

Nightmares for me last night xp

if i wanted to worry about this bullshit i would watch hockey.

I hope he takes Steph out

for Burmese food. There's a good spot by the SF airport

What's Burmese food like? I might check that place out.

xp I would worry he was gonna poison him tbh

his anti Riley curry stance, my god his main thing was its not professional and gets in the way of him doing his job

Grown man getting owned by a toddler, good look.

i haven't been to that place but my favorite burmese thing is tea leaf salad

burmese food is sooo good

anyway i too woud love to read a tell-all about lebron's last 12 months or so, i really hope someone has the access and impartiality to do something like that. i can't remne her doing a 180 on an athlete like I have with bron

He's so insufferable now

Christ this game starts at 9pm tonight? ugh

i haven't been to that place but my favorite burmese thing is tea leaf salad

laphet is no joke the best food in the world. my gf and I have it once a week

when i lived over in that part of the world i'd eat the leaves and nuts with cabbage, like a salad, but my girlfriend's always eaten it with rice and laphet with brown rice and chillies is just sublime

k3v otm. place I'm talking about is in Burlingame btw. Burmese food should be everywhere, but it can be hard to find.

This place? If so, I just passed it yesterday.

yep, that's the one!

Awesome! Going to see if I can corral people to try with me next week.

oh man that place looks banging

I don't even know what to think about Lebron anymore but this might be the most otm thing I've read about him all year:

bron having a slowmo panic attack all season and trying to paper over it with leadership cliches

Btw I can't load the enough of the thread to find it without iPad bursting into flames but from last night- CLAY how did you miss the white stripes seven nation army thing all this time? Were u frozen in carbonite during the 2000s or something

Well turns out Houston is a good offensive team when you stop defending entirely

and an entertaining basketball squad

ban defense

well I just checked the score of this game

re: white stripes I guess I just never put that song with that band, it was just like a misc sports song to me? White stripes stuff always went in one ear and out the other to me. And the chant just never registered as "oh that's that sports song they're chanting huh"

Steph :-(

oh god

that was a serious spill hope he's ok

missed the steph thing. Hit his head bad?

went up and over somebody and came down on back/shoulder/neck

I'm only just tuning in but it seems like he walked off of his own ability, I'm guessing they just want to do all the concussion protocols

yeah broadcasts just updated. head contusion, questionable to return. sounds like he's fine just understandably shaken up.

honestly if I'm the dubs i let this one go then take the series at home

yeah it's not like there's much diff b/w 9 and 7 days rest. houston's gonna win one out of pride so let 'em.

yeah maybe let them win a couple more too yanno

how the hell does that 85 footer not count on good faith

josh smith is shooting 100 percent

Dwight Howard would like to remind everyone that his emotional age is ~13 years old

lol at dwight getting just a flagrant one for that when horford got a 2 for a m/l unavoidable elbow drop

gotta throw dwight out for that smh

props to the rox audience for giving steph claps when he left court and now when he's coming back

it seems small and like basic but honestly a decent amount of crowds don't do that

okay pull steph it's not worth it
