Add the Spurs to the list of teams I don't plan on watching again this season.

There are very few teams in the league that can’t beat us if we’re having an off night. Including tomorrow’s opponent.

Those Kanter posts are super interesting. I wonder if the league will step in and ask him to stop. He's making China very angry, and the league sure does like them China bucks.

[Mori Chu]

The Ringer has a nice article on the Bulls, who have started out 4-0. I don't really believe in them (they've mostly won against awful opponents due to an easy schedule), but it's nice to see them doing well. I especially like Lonzo Ball for them.

ESPN is reporting Jokic's injury as a "knee contusion." He didn't play in the 2nd half. Hope he'll be okay.

[Nodack]

Good for him! America can’t compete with China’s slave labor wages and therefore we buy all their stuff instead of making it ourselves. China keeps getting stronger and richer and we get weaker and poorer as a a result. Their military grows stronger and more belligerent by the day. This will all come to a head at some point. Very few have the balls like Kanter to say the truth.

Scottie Barnes is awesome.

Love this thread.

LMAO. I loved the quote from Westbrook afterwards about how that is not cool or whatever. He is exactly the kind of guy who would and likely has done that sort of play. I guarantee you can find footage of him doing it.

[Split T]

No problem with Bazely doing that…go ahead and punctuate the win!

[Superbone]

Scottie Barnes is awesome.

Harrison Barnes is pretty good too. Especially with the buzzer beaters.

I have Miles Bridges on one of my important fantasy teams. Peeped their 2nd game as a result plus their commentators crack me up. Either way he showed me some stuff that I didn't have in his scouting report and they are now 5-0 and he's been still going crazy

Quite an amazing start for him

I wonder if anything will be said about Westbrook slapping the refs hand away when she points at him for the T?

It got a fan ejected a few days ago for doing the same thing to Ramon Rondo.

[Superbone]

Looks like he missed.

And the fan wasn't ejected for that. He did something else already and was being ejected. Rondo was pointing out which guy it was while they were waiting for security. The broadcast team just missed it.
