I genuinely feel bad for Mavs fans, especially after Davis' impressive debut.

Charles Barkley's nickname for AD is "Street Clothes"

Appreciate the tag but I don't think I've watched an NBA game in nigh on a decade lol

I usually just see quick recaps of the games.

The NBA is still playing?

In one of your 38 tabs?

I have been trending away from the NBA this year.  Haven't watch more than 3 games all season, instead of the every night.  So I totally get it.  No worries.  

However, this is kind of like if Jordan or Magic Johnson or Bird was traded at night over the weekend, and is playing his first game with new team.  Will probably be trending tonight and tomorrow for hot takes.

 

[Street Novelist]

Even ESPN has changed its schedule to televise the 7:30 tipoff tonight. Baylor at Houston was originally scheduled.

 

[Street Novelist]

What a blowout! I think that's 3 or 4 consecutive games where the Lakers have scored 70+ points in the first half.

I feel attacked by this. One might need those tabs!

And then the four-time champion with the Golden State Warriors was asked a simple question: Does he think the NBA game is boring?

"Absolutely," he said.

...

But the NBA keeps hearing the question about the on-court product. And Green is among those that think issues exist. He cited an interview he recently saw where the late Kobe Bryant, who died in 2020, called the game "accidental basketball."

"It's all penetrate and pitch," Bryant said in that interview. "You may make the shot, you may not."

Said Green: "He couldn't have been more right."

Green talked about a recent Golden State game against LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers, and how it was "refreshing" to go against a thinker like James -- who is notorious for finding weaknesses and exploiting them.

"Every possession is some type of chess move," Green said. "You don't get that today in the NBA, often. ... You don't just get that on a regular basis. It's just who can run faster, who can hit more 3s, it's no substance. I think it's very boring."

I likeLebron, but to say he has a crazy good IQ is something a fool would say - if we are being honest   :smokin

Exhibit A & B

I know a previous Cavs exec.  One thing he said about Lebron, is that he is not clutch.
