There is some truth in this. Bledsoe usually gives Kyrie fits.

I'd be surprised otherwise:

I don't think he is qualified to be traded for a while. Makes that situation awkward.

Don't look now, but magic are up 18 on the Spurs. Magic might be for real. Vucevic, Gordon and Fournier look incredible right now. I really like Isaac too. Add another ball handler *cough* Bledsoe *cough* and they could put up a fight in the playoffs.

I hope they keep it up. Magic have been pretty bad since Dwight left. Up 61-34 at the half.

Spurs-magic turning into Watson led Suns vs blazers/clippers. Magic up 31.

Ok, maybe not quite. But impressive nonetheless.

If Ive learned anything this season in the NBA, it is that there is no such thing as a mercy rule. If the Spurs get blown out 2x in 3 games, maybe Pop becomes a darkhorse candidate to replace watson. :D

Holy shit, Raymond Felton is fat. I don't know if I'm more disgusted or impressed that he's able to play in an NBA game in that physical condition.

Those Nike jerseys are total shit. Draymond's jersey got torn in half during the brawl.

Draymond's really a punk. I used to really like him, but he's a punk.

I agree. I don't like his new attitude in the past few seasons. In general I don't like players who play dirty and get too aggressive.

He's been the same douche the whole time, nothing has really changed IMO.
Love, Hurts.

Um. I am no Draymond fan but whoever that was sucker punched him from behind. This one is totally not Draymond's fault.

Aggressive is my preferred style of play. I wish we had a couple Patrick Beverly's on our team. I think Houston is going to regret that trade they made for Chris Paul.

I put Patrick Beverly on my most aggressive team.

I put Green and Paul on my all dirty team, this while they get credit for being great defenders.
What was the reason to get rid of Monty again? Oh yeah, that guy we drafted rather than Doncic.

Does anyone still think that Westbrook had no help last year and Oladipo, Sabonis and even Adams just improved (greatly) over the summer?

Oladipo was good before he came to the thunder. He was just a bad fit next to Westbrook. And they tried to make Sabonis a stretch 4, Indy is getting him the ball closer to the hoop.
