Looks like Klay Thompson will miss the entire season according to coach Steve Kerr. 

 

This sounds like a classic "underpromise to overdeliver situation"

If any team ought to have learned...

I'm picking Bucks vs. Jazz in the finals, but I don't know who wins in 7.  Mitchell will just drive on every play and then either kick it out to Ingles, Conley, or Bogdanovich for a 3, or up to Gobert for an alley-oop.  Literally, that is what their offense should consist of every.single.play. I predict the Jazz having the most efficient shot metrics in NBA history this season.  Mitchell should have a double-double every game: 10 dunks and 10 assists.

 

And, I support Morey. We shouldn't let China dictate squat.

Morey is a true hero for his drive-by activism. . Ask the G-League dudes and Kyle Kuzma and Klay Thompson how they feel about all of that. And then ask Buddy Heild about his below-market contract.

 

The NBA will have a real boner for Boston or Philly vs one of the LA teams in the Final.

My memory is foggy, what's this river that I'm in? New Orleans is sinking cause the Raptors got a win.

Lakers/Clippers should have had its own night on the schedule. It's a marquee, "heavy weight" matchup. Fantastic game, great energy.

 

And it's crazy how authentic NBA 2k20's commentary is (yeah I know it's been great for years...but there is seemingly zero difference between video game Harlan's lines and real life Harlan).

This a really great crowd atmosphere tonight. It sounds like a playoff game, but also like a big boxing match. Really cool way to start the season.

Tragically Hip song parodies? The hockey thread really sprung a leak.

Of course Kyrie scores 50 :censored:ing points in his Nets debut.

What, did you think he'd come out as flat as he thinks the Earth is?

[Digby 3,363]

Nets lost anyway. Welp!

It's either to get PEDs or weed out of his system. Either way, what a dumbass.

Giannis fouls out with 5 minutes left?  The morning email to the officials has a new #1 topic.

We’re not bad, Trae Young is just good. We’re not bad, Trae Young is just good. We’re not bad, Trae Young is just good.

The bulls are lousy and always will be lousy. Don’t be too excited.

Lol the Kings are already such an absolute :censored:ing tire fire  I’m so glad this city is finally getting a team that’s not a complete and total embarrassment.
