The Official NBA Season Thread: Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

[antidope]

I'll never forget asking my dad if he could take me to a Sonics game when I was eight years old. We didn't have any money, but he said "yes" and bought tickets from a scalper outside the old Seattle Coliseum. It was a rare game that Shawn Kemp didn't start, but came off the bench. Steve Scheffler started in his place. It was the same season the Sonics made the Conference Finals against Barkley's Suns. I remember it vividly. Sonics beat Denver 108-104 in OT. I'll never forget that game. Cherish those moments with your son. My dad doesn't remember, but I do.

My dad used to take me to wrestling knowing full well it wasn't real but leaned into it anyways. I can't wait for it to be my turn.

My dad made a couple of calls and took me to a meet and i saw Chris Master’s , Edge and Lita.

Then during the show the next day he told my 8 year old *** “ it looks even faker in person” He was distraught that they had Ric Flair’s old *** wrasslin

Many years later, I found out Scheffler started because Kemp had been injured in December, and they would put The Chef in early, and Kemp would sub in mid-quarter. I still brag to my NBA buddies that I attended a game where Scheffler started lol. He was literally their 10th - 12th man at the time.

Russ dialed in tonight. These teams giving us another good game

Speaking of cooked.

Truly incredible how the PG/Mebiid tenure is mirroring the Kawhi/Pg tenure. Only difference is the Clippers still won game when they dealt with injuries that first year

 

[Rootin4EverybodyBlack]

No matter the outcome of this game, Dallas looks so much better defensively when it’s not 5 vs. 4
