I get the idea, hand the team over to Acuff which is smart. But they couldn’t get a couple second round pick or something for the guy lol?

- Comment on Lakers Trade for Walker Kessler 1 week ago:
I really haven’t watched him play much honestly. He was injured basically all of last season, the season before that he averaged 12.5reb 2.4blk, if we get numbers like that from a 25 y/o center then its worth it. Dudes basically Rudy but he can catch a basketball at that point lol
- Comment on The Celtics are trading Brown to the 76ers 1 week ago:
Maxey, Edgecombe, and Brown is an amazing core of players. If the 6ers can add some depth around that they’re looking like serious contends.
On the other hand, wtf are the Celtics doing? That’s really the best offer they got?
- Comment on Lakers Trade for Walker Kessler 1 week ago:
If you have Luka and Reaves as your backcourt you need a great rim defender. Did the Lakers overpay, yeah probably. But, I just spent all season riding the Deandre Ayton rollercoaster and I’m ready to get off lol
- Comment on Morant to the Portland Trail Blazers for Jerami Grant and Kris Murray 1 week ago:
Decent move by Portland, take a shot at a former allstar theoretically entering his prime while not giving up to much.
- Comment on Reports: Wolves land LaMelo Ball in blockbuster trade with Hornets | NBA.com 2 weeks ago:
And his brother was out of the league by 28 because of “similar” injuries I think. I can’t help but wonder if that’s from their dad forcing them to wear those garbage shoes lol?

I think the biggest part is it’ll take some load off of Ant. It seems like every year Ant either runs out of gas or gets injured cause he had to do everything on offense.
- Comment on Sources: Bulls finalizing hire of Tiago Splitter as head coach 3 weeks ago:
I understand the situation but, dude was the head coach for 81 games this season plus the playoffs. Did a great job from what I’ve seen, and Portland let him walk, why?
- Comment on Sources: Bulls finalizing hire of Tiago Splitter as head coach 3 weeks ago:
Portland makes the playoffs for the first time since like 2020 and Ddn’t resign their first year head coach? Brilliant move lol
- Comment on THE NEW YORK KNICKS ARE YOUR 2026 NBA CHAMPIONS 4 weeks ago:
Shout out to Nico Harrison for not resigning Jalen Brunson when he had the chance. Truly the worst of all time lol.

Mitch is little boying Wemby down low
- Comment on 2026 NBA Finals: Knicks vs Spurs – Game 5 4 weeks ago:
Going for a loose ball, also a foul now lol
- Comment on 2026 NBA Finals: Knicks vs Spurs – Game 5 4 weeks ago:
Wemby might as well start karate chopping people, he’s never getting that next flagrant lol
- Comment on 2026 NBA Finals: Spurs vs Knicks – Game 4 4 weeks ago:
And Wemby missing both free throws with under 2-min left. Maybe Vic was projecting with those words lol
- Comment on 2026 NBA Finals: Spurs vs Knicks – Game 4 4 weeks ago:
This comment aged poorly lol
- Comment on Knicks have to start protecting Brunson better 4 weeks ago:
Yes, of course something can be dirty even if its not called lol.
- Comment on Wembanyama, Spurs stun Knicks at MSG to revive Finals hopes 4 weeks ago:
It literally might be his fault. Anything happening in Manhattan is a logistical nightmare, and these playoffs have been some of the worst I’ve seen.
Now add the President on top of that and all the extra security, they literally fenced off MSG and used pepper spray to dispurse the crowed last night… The players had to be patted down before being allowed into the locker rooms. A lot if athletes have pregame rituals and whatnot they do before every game and that got thrown off, I’m not surprised the Knicks started cold.

I can’t believe Bodega KAT is arguably the best player in the NBA Finals. Never thought I’d see the day but, the man’s out there making plays.

Analytically speaking he’s a great coach, so this is a great move…Analytically lol
- Comment on Knicks sweep Cavs, return to NBA Finals for 1st time since 1999 1 month ago:
Everybody says you have to build through the draft nowadays but, the Knicks starting five all came from FA signings and trades. I think Duece and Mitch are the only draft pics that get minutes in the playoffs.
- Comment on Chuck keeps it real - too many talking heads crying about softest fouls on Wemby! Chuck and Shaq say Spurs gameplan is terrible vs OKC 1 month ago:
The only time I saw the holding called was on Wemby, I haven’t watched every minute of every game though. I don’t have a problem with it if its called evenly as possible.
OKC is a dirty team though, they go out and try to hurt players. Like the two examples I gave above, when Dort tripped Joker, Shai trying to rip Austin Reaves arm off. And these are only example that I’ve personly seen, I’m sure there’s more.
And I’m not a Wemby fan, more of an OKC hater BTW lol
- Comment on Chuck keeps it real - too many talking heads crying about softest fouls on Wemby! Chuck and Shaq say Spurs gameplan is terrible vs OKC 1 month ago:
There’s a difference between playing dirty and being physical. Chet stepping on Wembys foot after a freethrow is dirty, hartenstein grabbing Castles hair is dirty. And calling a foul on Wemby for for barley grabbing Hartensteins arm is bs, either the refs call it on both side or not at all.

You see this bullshit move by Chet? I used to think it was just Lou Dirty Dort but, its just the whole team at this point.

No Fox for Spurs could hurt them in crunch time again.
- Comment on THE DETROIT PISTONS HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED FROM CHAMPIONSHIP CONTENTION 1 month ago:
His performance in the playoffs was historical bad. Second biggest dropoff in ppg for an all-star ever (1st bring Wilt 50>35). The more troubling thing is the drop in stuff like rebounds, the effort just wasn’t there.
- Comment on NBA Playoffs: East Conf. Semifinals / West Conf. Semifinals - May 15, 2026 1 month ago:
Pistons still alive, you really thought a team with James Harden would close out anyone lol.
Let’s see what the Wolves got though, they’ve had to struggle for both wins this series, Spurs are clearly better.
- Comment on NBA Playoffs: East Conf. Semifinals - May 13, 2026 1 month ago:
The Pistons benched their All-Star center to end the game cause he’s been playing like complete shit all postseason. And the Cavs still barely won, I don’t think playing the Knicks right now would end well for the Cavs lol.
