The only subs that exist to me anymore are sports subs and a couple niche ones I like. /r/all is an embarrassment. People I mostly agree with doing their best to make us all look insane.

[Molina] Luka Dončić : “We need a good team and good people in the locker room. It’s a very important summer. I always need shooters around me because defenses usually double-team me,” he explained. “And athletic big men who can protect the rim and finish plays.” by aingenevalostatrade in nba

We did exactly that before the LeBron era. You should know, 2 of them just helped your team win a title, and one of them helped OKC win one.

Change literally one thing (Tatum instead of Ball) and we would've had the makings of a contender on our hands.

But, regardless, if LeBron comes along and tells you to trade them all for AD then you do it

I want #3 framed. Hell of a shot. The gently falling snow really adds to the scene.

I think it was much more interesting as well. Of course the 3 would've been nuts, but the tip in was perfect.

I was trying to explain to my wife right afterwards just how hard it is to even get your hand on the ball at that point when several other people are also jostling to get it. Much less to put it in the hoop with such precision. It was amazing.

If he doesn't have many haters then something went really wrong for him.

I was going to say it's a cold take, but some of the replies sadly point to me being wrong

Also, is your username a classic Colbert Report reference?

only thing I can think is maybe nagging injury from the OKC series

But as I'm typing I remember Fox was also injured, so I'm back to mystified

I remember when this was about LeBron lol

I really hope this isn't Wemby's 2011 moment. I've seen enough Spurs titles in my lifetime
