Has anyone listened to 'The Book OfBasketball' podcast. Recommended by a team mate. I've been binging it the last two weeks.
Highly recommend. Bill Simmons and others look at re drafts, finals series, his rankings of players on the all time list and why.
Yep, some of it is pretty good. Its his follow-up to his Book of Basketball (an actual book), that is excellent. He doesn't write much anymore now that he's made $200m selling The Ringer to Spotify, its all podcasts. But he is great quality, excellent insight and unique ability to link the trends of the times.

It's not quite jegga-iffic but I'm having Christmas dinner with Cam Oliver

Dear Sean Marks and co
Well done bro. KD and Kyrie have made it look easy against the Celtics tonight. Please don’t ruin this team by chasing Harden. With DJ, Allen, Harris, Dimwiddie, Levert, Shamet, Prince, Green - you have a very very good supporting cast to your two superstars.

An underwhelming Chrismas Day slate of games.
Just a series of blowouts.
Welcome to the NBA regular season!!!

They'd be mad to chase Harden. I dont know if this team is good enough to go deep into the playoffs, but I dont think Harden will take them further. Its certainly not more scoring that they need.

Fuck harden was insane everyone was in that game the blAzers big 3 look nice. His book of basketball podcast includes the rewatchables. It's epic.
I have nba league pass this year (via Mexico sign up) been getting a hammering between cricket.

@Magpie_in_aus Blazers v Rockets games always tend to be close high scoring games. Both are explosive offensively but seem to have the same defensive breakdowns/lapses.
CJ was hitting some tough shots. He’s not as good as Klay but his jump shot is almost as smooth.
That Christian Wood is a keeper for the Rockets. I watched him have a couple of big games last year for the Pistons after taking a few seasons to find his feet on the league. When they get Cousins, Wall and Gordon back they’ll have a better rotation than they did last season.
-
Some crazy results today so far.
Hornets beat the Nets (Hayward was Mr Efficient), Clippers lose by 50 to the Mavs. Bucks are about to lose to the Knicks. Cavs do it easy against the 76ers. Spurs played a stinker against New Orleans after a couple of very good wins.

Did that fucking cat kawhi have the day off in the first fucking week?

To be fair, he did get a broken jaw last game...or 8 stitches or some shit. Looked bad anyway
Playoff P showing how good he is as a co-star though...
Ladies and gents, it's your NBA regular season!!!
-
Okay maybe I'll let him off
-
@mariner4life yeah he copped a hard elbow straight to the face that pretty much knocked him out and blood pouring out.
Looks like a few other Clippers had the night off too, but were actually seen on the court...
Warriors get their first win.

8 stitches in his lower lip. McCaw played a whole tourney with a broken foot, and Wags is bowling full speed with a broken toe FFS. Time to harden up Kawhai!!

Dinwiddie out for the season
-
Ja Morant went down during today’s game looked like a bad ankle sprain. Hopefully he’ll be okay. Grizzlies still got the win over a KD&Kyrie-less Nets.
Nuggets doing a number on the Rockets right now. Joker has it on a string and is giving a lesson in all round offensive play.
-
How’s that NBA regular season aye, lose to the Knicks and then come back the next night and smash the defending EC champs by 50 setting all sorts of 3pt records.

@ACT-Crusader you know what I'm gonna say...
