blazers d is straight relegation-worthy

Callie Rivers' revenge

Curry 45 through 3

Kanter is such a gifted scorer and rebounder it’s a shame he couldn’t figure out defense

he misses so many wide open layups which is where a not insignificant number of his rebounds originate, but yeah he is a truly awful defender

i'm sure it's only like 28 in reality but it feels like steph's career PPG against the blazers is like 42

That include playoffs? He really owns them there

Oh that wasn’t facts lol. But yah

i got to attend a steph & dame duel back when they were still kids (spring 2014 maybe?) and it's one of my better live basketball memories

yeah... that one game where he went off on them in the fourth quarter after coming back from injury and the camera cut to paul allen completely slackjawed in the crowd is one of my top 3 ever steph games

weird that you could just go to basketball games 6 years ago

lol these two taking turns hoisting now

Curry 50 w 6 mins left

pretty sure this is the one i'm remembering and actually dame had a shit game lol

so good... dray looking spry in these clips

2015-16 dray was a complete animal.

dubs really need just organize themselves around steph taking ten 30 footers a game this year

He might get his career high

oubre and dame should not fight! i like those guys!

focus on your true enemy: paul george

ahh steph broke 60!

Goat

he is very stoked, cute

He read the tweets lol

62 in 36 minutes.

so happy he's back. if they can get anything out of wiseman on defense this year that's a pretty good backbone

Payton Pritchard seems pretty solid, better than the other 87 other point guards they’ve drafted in the past 2 years

he seems like a good back up PG but i'm not sure i see anything more than that

something i didn't know:
https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2895210-allen-iverson-to-receive-32m-trust-fund-in-10-years-as-part-of-reebok-contract

he seems like a good back up PG but i'm not sure i see anything more than that

yeah pritchard was a nice find

kinda crazy he just started playing good his first day in the nba, and its good for the celtics that he did cause they dont have a lot of guys!

he's got 11 points and 3 assists in 11 minutes tonight so far. scores easily at multiple levels, plays in control. he's a little small but there aren't a lot of holes in his game.

Maxey is playing pretty well for a rookie out of the box.

Bam Adebayo alley-oop dunk on Mike Muscala 🔥😳pic.twitter.com/S7gt7chlOG

mike muscala is really bad don’t get how he’s in an NBA rotation

it's good the thunder have 2 million picks bcuz they are very devoid of talent outside of SGA and bazley who looks like he could be a pretty good wing player

the type of shots jayson tatum is hitting tonight are ridiculous

on the one hand i feel like the raptors should prob be able to level out, they're too stable a roster/organization to really bottom out. on the other if you start thinking about their roster it's like... 35 year old kyle lowry who prob isn't an all star anymore, siakam playing well below all star level for a while now, OG who is a very good defender but doesn't do much on offense, van vleet who is a good player but not an all star, norm powell who is a nice 7th man... there's not a *ton* there

the celtics dominated them physically tonight and the celtics do not physically dominate very often. g. williams, r. williams, t. thompson were just beasting inside.

siakam has hit a bit of a development wall and norm powell is out of shape in the accounts i've heard so that's a couple strikes against a thin team.

xp they REALLY miss gasol's playmaking and D, and ibaka, too. their roster took a step back replacing them with baynes and boucher in the rotation.
