I think they'd match up fine against the Lakers, Grizzlies, or Rockets. I think they'd struggle mightily against OKC, the Nuggets, or the Wolves.
If we make it to the play in and go 2-0, we’re the 8 seed and face 1. That won’t be anyone but OKC.

Yeah, Cap. Don't forget who Marty's favorite team is.

They're dead to me ever since they traded my favorite player, Jordan Poole.

the rumor was one of the reasons why Draymond punched Jordon Poole is because he’d make non-stop pool puns. Draymond had enough and took matters into his own hands.

It's kind of funny seeing this perspective from a different media/fanbase. Nurk isn't perfect but I thought he was given way too much blame early in the year by fans and media looking for a scapegoat.

Naw. Nurk was awful from Day 1 this season.

The hornets employ a known woman beater and a Ball brother, anything resembling leadership probably feels great.
Love, Hurts.

Charlotte is still in the initial honeymoon phase with Nurkic, where his "straight talk" is considered refreshing. Notice how he prominently mentions his lack of minutes in his comments. By start of next season they'll probably be sick of him.

Is it that important to know it's LeBron's left groin and not his right groin?

I enjoyed watching the Celtics beat the Lakers, especially given Mike Breen's incessant infatuation with L.A.
At one point, he said the Lakers had "the NBA's current longest win streak" at eight, forgetting Cleveland's current 13-win streak.
Doris Burke, who at one time was reasonably professional, has devolved into something resembling a daytime talk show host with inane blather.
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

That depends on which one is his dominant groin. Is he left-groined or right-groined?
