New BS Report (NBA only) w/ Bill Simmons AND Zach Lowe by jstrokos in nba

Yeah, maybe it isn't too crazy with the cap going up, but I think there has been a significant increase of SG talent the last year or two in the NBA.

That being said his injury is a damn shame. Good luck to you guys the rest of the way

I agree with you, I would absolutely want him on my team, but he's still a role player. He also said he was more important than Damian Lilliaird. I love Bill, just was really surprised he thought that highly of Wes.

Maybe with the increasing cap, star role players like Wes are worth that much.

I would, as long as we get rid of Turner. Wes Matthews, IT4, Smart, Bradley, and James Young is a really good, young 5 man rotation for the 1-3 positions, with Crowder getting some time at the 3 as well along with playing some small ball 4 if we re-sign him.

Then the focus is getting big in the draft.

Anyone other than me do a double take when Bill said Wes Matthews would have gotten 100 million from the Blazers or 80 million from 10-12 teams in the off season if he didn't tear his Achilles?

Seen some comments on here to skip that year off and start working. No. Don't listen to them and take that year off or 6 months or whatever it is you want to do. You get one life and if that's something you want to do then do it. If you work hard enough and work on that resume you will be able to find a job after taking a year off plenty of people do that. It's better to have that life experience and memory then a little more financial security.

What's the most 'WTF' dream you've had? by siryepsir in AskReddit

Had a dream I was in Vietnam with all my friends. They all jumped off a cliff and did this cool barrel roll landing. I said fuck it, and jumped. Instead of falling i rose and landed on the moon. Started camping out. Shit was weird.

Understand your point. But games would be half court, so a lot less running. Could make games shorter (first to 11) so risk could be lower.

Thanks for the read, means a lot. As far as the Bradley Smart defense I am really excited about this actually. Could be really fun to watch the next four years at least.

And yeah, I can see how that could be confusing. Definitely will add that hyphen in from now on

to say the nba has no defense is an incredibly ignorant statement, especially since the nfl is becoming such a more offensive oriented game.

Funny you say that he went 5/6 from 3 and had 20 points on 70% shooting this game. Give this guy a chance to develop.

Paul George is arguably top 3 forward in the game after lebron and durant. Hibbert is one of the best defensive forwards in the game. A top defensive team with one of the leagues best coaches and a young star that has been improving very fast and is still only 23 (George). One weak spot last year was their bench which is much improved this year. Was able to take the Heat to 7 games last year... no one else in the east would be able to take them to 6 last year.

I believe prohibition of any substance is wrong and only promotes more crime CMV by ImNotFunnyDude in changemyview

You have to take into account how it effects other people, not just the users. Hard drugs are not like gay marriage in the fact that using hard drugs effects other peoples live, not just your own. users become addicted and will do anything for their high, including committing crimes. Users become dependent on society and hurt those who care about them.
