Nick Collision is having his number retired by the Oklahoma City Thunder. First player in franchise history. They are setting the bar pretty low.

yeah, that's great, but what does that have to do with Earl Watson? 

focus, amigo!

[Tank]

Earl Watson once guarded Carmelo's cousin in a church league game. 

 I thought everyone knew that.

Porzingis traded to Mavs

So is Kawhi. What a shot.

Embiid crying after the game was great. 

[Lou]

Cavs hire Michigan's John Beilein as HC.

By my count, that's 4 new head coaches hired so far and only 1 team interviewed championship-caliber Tyron Lue.

Somehow Lillard's shot got beat just 2 weeks later.

 

I liked the emotion from Embiid.  Don't know how often you see NBA players cry after a tough loss.  That has to be the toughest way to be eliminated.

Heard that that was the first time in NBA history that a game 7 was won with a buzzer beater.

I had no idea the Draft Lottery is tonight. 

Please don't be the Knicks 

[m0nkey]

Lakers in the top 4.  Seems legit

[Lou]

[Lou]

Pelicans get Zion. 

Does AD change his mind now?

The Pelicans can complete the rebuilding process by trading Davis to the Knicks or Lakers for a top 4 pick and young players.  Or they could trade both the #1 pick and Davis.

Yea, no shit.  

[Lou]

there is no way NO trades away the #1 pick 

[Stradling]

There is such a conspiracy going that the league decided to give the two biggest markets the 3rd and 4th picks.  Oh and they gave the shittiest ran franchise, one that the league had to take over at one point the number one pick.

Wish the Knicks would've gotten it.  They should be good again

There was that one good carmelo year they had.

Hope to see Kyrie, Durant, and maybe they manage a trade with #3 and Knox and Co. for Davis.

not until they learn how to run their franchise better. knicks fans are like yankees fans, and the rest of the country doesn't need to hear their noise.

they blow and suck.
