I'm going to miss Andrew Nembhard. He's one heck of a player but I also had to say, at least once a game, "He's so cute!" lol

He was Second round by the way, from Ontario.

Swanigan died Monday night, with the Allen County coroner's office saying he died of natural causes at a Fort Wayne, Indiana, hospital. A first-round pick of the Portland Trail Blazers in 2017, 6-foot-9 Swanigan played three years in the NBA with the Blazers and Sacramento Kings.

So, every city in USA allowed unvaccinated people to play basketball.

Except New York. Does that make sense that one city can do something as crazy as not allowing
someone to play basketball when all other cities in the country - and the world - allowed it.

New York allowed unvaccinated people to play basketball indoors from other cities
but they never allowed Kyrie Irving to play... because he lives in New York.

In late September, former mayor Bill de Blasio argued that allowing unvaccinated out-of-town performers -- i.e. touring bands, comedians, professional athletes on visiting teams -- to play indoor venues does not constitute a loophole. "There is a recognition that if someone comes through briefly, it's a different reality than someone who works regularly in a location," de Blasio said, via THE CITY. De Blasio also directly urged Irving to "get vaccinated."

^ Is that insane?

And everyone said Kyrie never got vaccinated, but no one said New York did something illegal.

This kid isn't in the NBA yet, but he will be.

That guy - Chet Homgren - is so tall - 7'2" he's almost taller than anyone in the NBA.
I think those tall guys get injured more.

poor guy - it's not going to work for him ^

Boston will win.
Butler got 47 points. He's burned out. Boston is more rested.

^ Boston did win the next game and the series.

That was heartbreaking news. He'll be out for a year at least. So now I wait until next year to watch him. :(

Draymond punches Poole. You can't do that. Any comments? Can you hit people like that?



Remember Bertuzzi?

[ferri]

Draymond Green is a jerk. He was almost at the same point during the playoffs last year.

[Thinktank]

Draymond Green is a jerk.

Not as big a jerk as Kyrie Irving, apparently. Kyrie just tweeted about a documentary - "Hebrews to Negroes" that is being promoted by Jeff Bezos on Amazon, and the entire NBA has just gone crazy. Tweeting is not promoting.

Kyrie is now the biggest jerk that ever lived.

But there's nothing wrong with telling people to watch a documentary, and figure out for themselves what to believe and what not to believe. Now I want to watch it, knowing the NBA just went crazy against it. The NBA also went crazy against Kyrie for standing against the clot shot.

[ferri]

I've been reading a few things here and there about something to do with Kyrie. I'll have to dig a little deeper. I haven't watched any NBA yet this year, but soon!
