It is the years 2018-19 in the National Basketball Association (NBA) - The Regular Season

I don't know, but I know the old man's diseased mind. In Taylor's mind we went outside and got a big name coach that didn't work so now we have to go back to someone that Glen knows and came up in the vaunted and highly successful Wolves organization

does taylor have some kind of midwest tunnel vision thing bc i've known some midwestern lifers like that

Gotta laugh at them firing thibs after a 22 point W over the Lakers.

must have been worried that someone else would hire hoiberg before they lose again

Xxpost he's basically a yokel that got rich, the search is probably limited to ppl whose numbers her has in his phone

He's from fuckin Mankato

lol

Thibs firrrrrrrrred!

lmao this is a novel

season ticket holders cldnt deal w beholding thibs anymore

Increased fan apathy in Minnesota -- with critical season tickets renewal period approaching, sources say -- was undeniable factor in Tom Thibodeau's inevitable firing. On Thibodeau and the business of basketball: pic.twitter.com/Qm2Tx5wjWM

there's no NBA national broadcast tonight cos of college football?? lame

nbatv needs to flex and pick up rockets vs nuggets

Here's Rose, on how he goes forward w/out Thibs: "I have a lot of confidence in myself. Thibs was just the coach that believed in me. He jump-started my career again and for that I'll always be thankful, but for everybody that think that it's going to stop, kill yourself."

— Chris Hine (@ChristopherHine) January 7, 2019

kill yourself

fuck derrick rose

that escalated quickly

woww

Devin Booker is who we thought Anhtony Davis was:

Kellan Olson@KellanOlson

Last season Devin Booker had a right knee thing, a back/hip thing, inflammation in his right big toe, a left adductor strain, right rib contusion, left hip pointer, triceps strain and a right hand injury that eventually brought on surgery in the offseason.

More
This season he played on his way back from that surgery, sprained his left pinky, strained his left hamstring and then re-aggravated it, dealt with a left big toe thing and a lower back contusion.

annnnnd he left last nights game with back spasms and is questionable for tomorrows game.

feel like this sort of thing isnt uncommon with young players asked to carry a heavy load while theyre still growing into their bodies/getting the necessary conditioning to be an nba star, sometimes they end up being injury prone but sometimes they grow out of it, booker might just need to get a lil more jacked, and teams shd consider brining their young stars along slowly

"kill yourself" is slang I guess and Rose already apologized

my theory w brow is he has a super low pain tolerance ive seen him take normal nba contact and react like he was shot but then be fine 30 seconds later or miss the rest of the game and play the next day lol

why cant all nba players be built like labron james

team of lebrons vs team of lebrons

total fouls per game: 0

Unfortunately, both teams are coached by Thibs so it's unwatchable

If you had 5 LeBrons, 5 Fredettes and 5 Bobans on your roster what would be the optimal minute allocation?

if we're going the Thibs route then... 48 minutes for the 5 lebrons.

that would be an embarrassment of bobans

one lebron and four bobans vs two lebrons two bobans and one thibs

Rodions Kurucs sounds like a neural network generated name

RIP Jamal Murray... we hardly knew ye

Harden got a foul call too bahahahha pic.twitter.com/f85DdeWlb4

This often puts D in rotation having to scramble & give up DNK 3. Jazz didn't have to do any of that and their defense allowed the Bucks to attempt the fewest 3's this year. Shooting frequency from tonight's game via @cleantheglass and can see how low the attempts were from 3. pic.twitter.com/APrKf7p6Ad

most of giannis halfcourt offense is dribbling into a post up anyway

uh meant to post the 1st tweet

Quick mini thread. One of the things I wonder if teams might explore is putting a 5 on Giannis since it was pretty effective when Gobert was defending him. Most teams often have a 3/4 & the defense has to double, dig + show multiple bodies to shrink floor.

pretty weird that the kings are still .500 at the halfway point
