    Harden sued for negligence

    I think the plaintiff's angle is his employees allegedly affirmatively prevented other people from preventing the crime. I'm not really familiar...

    Harden sued for negligence

    Well, you can be sued for anything. Whether your lawyers can quickly squash it without the need for an actual trial is a different question. From...

    Durant traded to Houston for Green, Brooks, #10 pick, and multiple 2nd rounders

    I think this is mostly a great post, but I watched a ton of that Nets team, and KD wasn't the problem. It was actually a great squad derailed by...

    Durant traded to Houston for Green, Brooks, #10 pick, and multiple 2nd rounders

    I would love a true floor general better than Fred and another serious shooting threat. If Reed (or anyone else) makes the leap that would work....

    I don't hate it, this could be great if one of the young guys takes a leap. Otherwise, we need to make more moves.

    Did Sacramento make the biggest mistake ever?

    I am a certified Russ hater, but I don't think the CP3 trade rises to that level of awfulness based on what was known at the time. Not many people...

    Pacers and OKC are using 10-11 man rotation in playoffs

    It seems most people are on the same page here: Alpi and Amen will only work if at least one of them develops a better shot. As far as what we...

    2025 EAST FINALS: (3) New York Knicks Vs. (4) Indiana Pacers

    It's really weird, you think it's not sustainable and their luck will run out, but they keep doing it. Truly unbelievable.

    2025 WEST FINALS: (1) Oklahoma City Thunder Vs. (6) Minnesota Timberwolves

    The problem is causals don't care about these teams (which is partially the fault of the NBA and the NBA media ecosystem), and some percentage of...

    Who are some inexpensive Jalen Green replacements that can be had?

    As disappointing as Green has been, I think we would still need to replace him with somebody that commands a lot of defensive attention like he...

    Life moves fast in the NBA

    I don't think we can get a superstar at a price that will make sense, so I think we're mostly stuck waiting for internal improvement. Not a great...

    Rockets Need a True First Option

    I 1000% agree with this. I don't think even Giannis or KD get us to a championship, we need a playmaker that can also get buckets. And probably...
