omg

rip world

u guys it's been great knowing you all, i'm headed for the bunker

Shved is real. Believe in Shved.

mannnnnn

like...that hurts, that legitimately hurts all parts of me that enjoy good basketball

tbf good basketball isn't what the spurs played, they def shot themselves in the foot but uuuuggggghhhhh

what part of u cant enjoy the success of a strange sallow russian basketball man idgi

langston galloway put up 22 on 10/18 shooting and played 48 minutes against the SAN ANTONIO SPURS.

the poles must have just flipped or something

LOU AMUNDSON HAS BEEN ON 10 TEAMS IN 10 SEASONS,ALL OF THESE PEOPLE ARE SO BAD, THEY MAKE GIGI DATOME LOOK LIKE 2007 MANU, WTF SPURS

/endrant

galloway I actually like, he has a legit future i think more so than any of these random knickerbocker scrubs

yeah but dude his name is langston galloway cmon

no kid is gonna go around manhattan wearing a langston galloway jersey.

langston galloway is mr. peanut's real name

In all seriousness I'm wondering if Shved is one of those Triangle Guys

xp he is prob the best knicks jersey to get aside from melo during the next 2-3 years regardless of which mid-tier FAs they attract in 2016

sometimes I wonder if Toronto Raptors fans take time every day to give thanks to the hoops gods (after thanking drake for everything as per official custom) that bargs got traded to an at-the-time-grateful ny knicks

i didn't have a chance earlier to post my favorite new tweet:

Jeff Green's career

http://i.imgur.com/Id9sqLw.jpg

poor jeff

Doesn't seem like he's that bad but geez

i mean, russell westbrook gets negative marks in plus minus on occasion, who knows

I was thinking the celtics traded their first and second best players and their third best is injured (sully) and they're playing their best ball of the season, so weird, but maybe jeff green isn't actually good

i mean, russell westbrook gets negative marks in plus minus on occasion, who knows

Yeah for sure but every season?

I'm not sure why but the Pelicans aren't using AD enough on offense. It's the Tyreke show out there, which is really weird.

was literally yelling FEED THE BROW the entire game when i saw them at barclays

their offense generally does not seem totally coherent

tyreke wasnt even playing either

brow is m/l the best roll man in the game they cld just do that every play idk why not, hes great at popping too but def does it too much

he's still gonna get so much better

ya its insane

i don't think there is a single metric that has ever had him as an above average player

Talked with my therapist about alexey shved today

Did he think it was a pass or a shot?

lol

haha, for sure tho a therapist wouldn't answer that question, just bounce it right back

re: brow offense -- Monty Williams is not a poor offensive coach I think is an issue. comes from the Nate McMillan "ball handling guard has to do everything until the final pass" school of 90's offense.

ILH favorite kent bazemore q&a on grantland today - http://grantland.com/the-triangle/nba-atlanta-hawks-interview-kent-bazemore/

The Hawks front office has done a great job of getting character guys who love the game, don’t have an agenda, and work hard. That’s the universal language. As long as you’re willing to work, we’ll get along just fine. We laugh and joke with each other. We play Uno …

Uno?

Yeah. It keeps the blood boiling a little bit. I think Dennis Schroder was the one who started it here. He’s in charge of keeping the cards, since he’s the youngest right now. There’s six guys playing sometimes, and those games get really intense, man.

Al Horford is winning right now. Jeff Teague is pretty solid. Dennis is really good. He’s sneaky: He blends the 9s with the 6s sometimes. He gets away with murder. He’ll play real fast; it’s such a quick game, a guy can play out of turn if you’re not looking. Kyle Korver and I are struggling right now.

My mom’s passing away. She’s expected to pass soon. She isn’t just responsible for my basketball fandom, she’s responsible for my basketball obsession. We’ve watched thousands of games together in the past 30 years. Including three championships for our team, the Detroit Pistons. If she could speak, she’d be telling us about the time she shook Bill Bradley’s hand for the millionth time or saying something shitty about Bird, Jordan, or LeBron. If she didn’t want to be cremated, she’d want to be buried in an Iverson jersey. I’ll miss her. Needless to say, my girlfriend and I are thrilled we’ll be able to watch Golden State and Atlanta tonight. While she’s unconscious, I’m told she can still hear. We’ll complain about Kerr (“too nice”) and Steph (“too nice”) and praise Atlanta’s grittiness. She always talked about the importance of grittiness.

Aw :(

Thanks for sharing dude
