I mean, I saw his post-game interview, and his body language was different. He looked happy in Portland, and I hope he continues to do well there. (Coming from a Thunder fan who hated the Blazers during Prime Era Lillard)

they’re dropping like flies bro i think this might be my fault

Out of MVP talks until the second half of the season and let's see his performance post surgery. They were looking pretty good too.

Excluding people that were rigging games

Every lineup that includes Klay Thompson is a defensive abomination.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the current state of the NBA, and I just realized that the league has fundamentally rewritten its unwritten rules to satisfy a specific, almost sadistic desire from the fanbase: the need to see defenders humiliated.

When you think about it, we are basically watching a high-budget version of the Harlem Globetrotters vs. the Washington Generals, where the teams just switch roles depending on who has the ball. When you’re on offense, you are almost unrestricted by traditional basketball rules. When you’re on defense, your only job is to stand there, get clowned, put on a poster or highlight reel.

The officials in the league don't even care about carrying, traveling, or charging anymore.

And a game winning shot as well

And I SWEAR if someone says Jerry Krause imma cry. There was no chance of MJ winning in 1999 so don’t try that

Its crazy. All these mysterious injuries and teams still sign him, talking about "out for a period of weeks" yeah ok.

You’re telling me Miami traded everything just for one year of giannis, and he can leave this upcoming summer?? Wow

New York joins the 1969-70 Celtics and 2011-12 Mavericks as the only defending champs to open 0-3. The Mavs recovered to make the playoffs as a No. 7 seed, the Celtics missed the playoffs entirely for the first time in 20 years.

Turnovers are the biggest issue. New York is giving it up 16.3 times a night so far compared to 13.6 last season, and opponents are scoring 20.7 points per game off those turnovers, over 4 more than last year. Brunson admitted "everything falls on my shoulders" after Sunday's loss to Orlando.

Shooting hasn't helped either. Brunson, Anunoby, and Hart are all shooting below 40 percent, and Bridges is a brutal 5-for-23 from the field with zero makes on 10 three point attempts through three games. They face an undefeated Pistons team next, though four of the next six after that come against the Bulls, Nets, and Bucks, teams with a combined 1-8 record, so there's a real chance to right the ship soon.
