My wife on Kenny Smith: “is his beard fake?”

What about that man's whole scalp

Lou Dort got away with an offensive foul on that random kickout

 

[clyde the glide]

Whacked him

 

[cool...but rude]

Real stupid foul by PJ

I know Clipper fans are pissed THJr didn't return soon faster for the Mavs.

pmatic who was Octagon?

Had it slightly wrong, Octagon still exists.

Omar Wilkes left them to go head Klutch and took Trae, OG and Ant with him. He's working at Fanatics now, and OG and Ant left Klutch shortly after.

Damn homie, you ain't giving my Knicks a chance?

So…..

Does this strategy come from coaching or nah?

How come the Lakers couldn’t think of this, knowing Bron and Dinwiddie and AR can attack the rim at will just like Ant has been doing?

OKC’s whistle is insanity.

Because Kuato was giving Ham bad advice.

Not game related but is it an indictment on newer Nike sigs that so many players continue to choose wearing older model Kobe's (V's this game) and KD's (IV's tonight) rather than new ones?

Night and day from what we saw last night in Denver.

Kudos to Kyrie man, he's absolutely looking fully engaged on both sides of the ball.

Never seen him play tenacious defense like this tbh , really great to watch

I believe it's more about nostalgia than anything else. I don't think these guys are eager to wear the signature shoes of current players or some other none signature basketball joint.

There's precedent from his Cavs days of him being engaged on defense come playoff time. Hasn't had much of an opportunity since he left Cleveland.

I don’t think so. Just think Kobe’s have a special meaning to them now that no other shoe really does.

And players have always like to rock “retros” to a degree ever since that became a thing. So guys in the league now who maybe wore KD’s as kids would see an appeal to wearing his old models.
