god help us

Dream says, “Steve.”

I’m like, “Yeah, Dream?”

“Steve, you walk around dressed like a bus driver.”

“Come on, Dream.”

“What are these construction shoes you have on?”

“These are Timberlands, man. Come on.”

“Steve, let me help you. Come to my tailor with me, and we’ll get you 10 suits. Custom-made. Cashmere.”

“Come on, Dream.”

“Cashmere, Steve.”

“Dream! Yo…”

“Come with me, Steve. Come to my tailor.”

heartbreaking espn piece on bosh.

Losing the game is one thing. Losing the environment that accompanies it has been even harder. The players he spent every waking moment with for nearly 10 months a year have, one by one, vanished from his life.

"It tails off,'' Bosh admits. "Guys tried [to stay in touch]. But it doesn't last. They get in the middle of the season and you aren't part of it. You're sitting here feeling like nobody cares about you.

"I went from a full schedule, 41 road games, everyone coming to see you, everybody loving you, people wanting stuff from you -- actually, that's still going on -- to this schedule I have now.

"I spend my days in an office in my house. There are things to be done that I don't have the skill set for. I'm able to learn on the fly, thank God, so I can function. But it's difficult.

"People used to ask me, 'What else do you want to do?' For me, the answer was, 'Nothing.' I loved basketball. It's all I wanted.''

bosh piece is so sad

man. bosh always looked like a lot weighed on him. had a soft spot for him back in the superfriends days

sad stuff. surprised bosh hasn't been able to get on like a coaching job or espn analyst or something.

he's got a great personality for tv! i figure he's waiting around hoping some other team will give him a chance before he hangs it up for good

yeah seems like tv is a good way to be around the game at least

the heat jerseys remind me of hotline miami

oh no Jaylen just dunked full speed and did that lose balance thing think he landed on his head

man i cant tell head and back. stretcher coming out.

walked off on his own. think he got knocked out.

im not sure if its good that i think hes lucky his arm/shoulder didnt get ruined cos his head took the worst of it and that's.. probably worse.

Jaylen Brown took a hard fall after a dunk 😰

eesh

that is not a great thing to happen to a person

harlan's 'oooooh oof' says it all

Reggie was freaking the freak out, think he was in tears when JB got up and walked away.

looks like his head hits the floor bounces off then immediately collides with his knee

Whiteside owned Embiid tonight

embiid shoots too many 3s and that's my main frustration w/ him

Yah when he’s gassed he just chucks. Same w boogie

hard for those big guys to move around that much

Think curry just rolled his right ankle for the 3rd time

Shut him down take the 2 seed

otm

nba seasons too long man

Might should go back to some older versions of his shoes too idk. 3 rolls in a couple months after years of nothing might be time to switch it up. Throw on some LeBrons maybe.

Brown “felt pretty good” leaving the arena Stevens said. Went to get a precautionary CT scan with Wolves doc.

Appreciate everybody I'm ok .. Got a headache tho 🤕 good team win !!

god that looked way worse than it was apparently

good to be young and flexible

full speed two handed dunks should be outlawed

nba seasons too long man

League-wide revenues have increased so much just within past 10 years that, if owners (ie humans) weren't so greedy it'd be a great time to reduce amount of games. Teams should still be able to turn a big profit even with being able to sell less tix.

and if they had some vision they cld see how having fewer games therefor making each game matter more cld make the league even more popular, i mean the nfl only plays 16 games right

interesting the rockets run such small number of sets wonder if its because it gives them more time to focus on making the right reads out of the sets they do use, which is something all their players do seem to do a lot

there should be 64 basketball games imo

63, no?

p good scheme anyway, along with confernceless playoff seeding with effectually eliminate conferences while still acknowledging some ancient rivalries

xp the last team standing must play vs God

hmm doesnt seem like a fair matchup

i think my preferred shortened season schemes are 58 games (1x home/away vs everyone, pure and simple) and 66 games (adding a 2nd home/away with the 4 division rivals)

i think just one extra game vs the division teams wld be fine
