Around the League: Week 10 12/28-1/3

[Mori Chu]

Needed a thread for stuff going on around the NBA this week.

Mostly I just wanted to post this phenomenal video of a 3-point duel between Steph Curry and Omri Casspi to end the first half the other night. It's a delight to watch.

I love Omri Casspi. Super underrated player and Sacramento stole him this summer. The Suns are missing an Omri Casspi.

Here is the version with the Kings announcers. I enjoyed their calls.

Wow. Most of those shots come from way behind the three point arc with lots of time left on the shot clock. Those are shots you're not normally supposed to take. Unless, of course, you're Steph Curry or Omri Casspi.

I was going to do it this afternoon!

If you wanted your weekly dose of Marcus Morris talking crap about the Suns, here you go:

"I don't know what's going on over there. It's like a (clown) show right now."

...

"It's not like he's going to read this and say my brother gave me some advice," Morris said. "We talk every day. He knows what's best for him. We all know what's best for him, and what's best for him is to continue to be professional and continue to work hard on his game.

"I know he's doing that day in, day out — regardless of the suspension and what's going on. He's a hard worker, and so he will continue to be ready when his number's called. If he gets traded, he'll be able to contribute to any team in the league."

Continue to be professional? Neither of them have any idea what that word means in the context of being a professional athlete.

Curry just has crazy range.

You just have to pick him up at half court and just hope he doesn't do something that embarrasses you.

This is hilarious.

LOL. Toronto fans are energetic, I'll give them that.

[Uncle_Gene]

That is truly hilarious.

I was watching that. Scary stuff. He was bawling on the sideline while the trainers were tending to him.

[Mori Chu]

At least they said he was moving his arms and legs. Phew. Hope he's all right.

A little old but interesting. I like Alvin and hope they just don't fire him after one season.

I would ABSOLUTELY take Alvin Gentry back here to coach the Suns if we fire Hornacek.
