Interesting read. Do you have the continuation part on page E4?

Exciting!

Also, love the photo caption. Wes Unseld was maybe the most atypical star player in history.

Going to take the Bulls to cover +11 vs the Warriors at home tonight.

[Long Ball Larry]

Have the hawks ever heard of defending the corner 3?

Yeah, let me have one of the interns run down to the records room.

GS going to hit 90 by halftime

I want to see them put up a 100 spot in a half.  One time, that's all.

greatest comeback of all time

GS going to hit 90 by halftime

92 is the second most points in a first half ever. Back in '90 the Suns laid down 107.

 

[tjnc09]

I added a 0 to your spread if you missed that.

Fading Warriors full game last year was 48-34 (58.5%) ... no problem with your bet imo

If Hoiberg gets fired it was a well spent $10

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Fultz finally plays “his game” after Brown tells him to put his fingerprint on the rim. His shot will come — get to the rim!

Klay unconscious

Klay unconscious

24 3PA midway through the 3rd!

 

[Long Ball Larry]

and breaks Steph's record with 14 made (right?)

 

[Kev4029]

Yup.

 

[Da Guru]

3 point line is now like a chip shot FG in football.  Time to move it back.

 

[scoobus]

Klay is such a beast, too bad the game isn't closer, would love to see him play the 4th.

 

[Long Ball Larry]

oh

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

3 point line is now like a chip shot FG in football.  Time to move it back.

How many times has it been moved?

 

[Long Ball Larry]

they should actually have the 3 point line move back and forth continuously, so you're never quite sure where it will be at any moment.  like pop a shot on random.

 

[The Kansas Comet]

Tell that to the Lakers.

long larry i like the jib of your cut brohan and they should also have a 20 foot tall hoop right to the left of the regular one to incentivize trickery and help bring back the little guys like mugsy bouges because the rule would be if you can dunk on the 20 foot hoop you automatically win the half so you could have a little guy running and jumping off the back of a big guy like a shaq oneil when he was not a laker and still cool because he was not a laker and that would bring the game back to where it was meant to be and put a smile on old mr naismiths peach basket take that to the bank bromigos 

 

[SWC]

i think this bootyholzer thing is going to work out ok in the waukee take that to the bank bromigos 

 

[thecatch]

Let’s be honest, it’s more surprising that the Kings are 4-3 than it is that Klay hit a bunch of threes. 

 

[Max Power]

Held them under 150 with the scrubs playing the whole 4th.  Little victories

 

[SWC]

ho hum bucks win undefeated without anteater take that to the bank brohans

Really like McKinnie.

 

[Apple Jack]

Just under 5 minutes left in the 3rd when he hit the 14th.

Considering the talent, chemistry and perhaps most importantly how much they want to deliver for Oakland this year - I have never said anything like this...I'm IT'S NOT OVER TIL IT'S OVER CLETUS guy - barring multiple significant injuries this is already over. Hang the banner.

Someone just pointed out the Suns made zero 3pt shots this whole game.

I think a series with Toronto would be an absolute dogfight. But I always get suckered in by Toronto.

As we all have I think, but whose-going-to-show-up DeRozan is gone and now you have the greatest marriage of alpha and x factor in hoops. I hope to see that series.

Brohan, you are kind of telling only half the story. Toronto was also missing a key player--and it wasn't Andrea Bargnani.

I recall it being shortened I just couldn’t remember if it was brought all the way back to the original distance.

The Bucks were missing a key player as well - and it wasn't Brad Lohaus.

he owns a bar in Iowa (or did)

been trying to get a friend of mine to go in there and put him in a headlock. for the photo opportunity.

 

[SWC]

4 in a row!  break 'em up!

I was going to make fun of the Magic for losing four straight to the Kings, but you know what? The Kings are freaking awesome now. There’s no shame in losing to a juggernaut. 

 

[MAC_32]

so weird but not surprising from that clown show organization.

I for one am shocked that this roster cant compete for the 8 seed in the east.

What is, something only Dan Gilbert would say....

 

[Tom Hagen]

I think I finally figured out the Wizards plan.  They must be banking on the rest of the roster setting aside their differences to unite in their total disdain for Dwight Howard when he gets back.

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Rose wants that Halloween scoring record.
