Listening to the Windhorst podcast right now looking back at the 2020 draft and Tim Bontempts calls the Wiseman pick one of the biggest mistakes in recent NBA draft history. Just how soon people forget Anthony Bennett and Hasheem Tabeeth. May not turn out to be ideal pick, but most people would agree that there is a place for JW, if not with the parent club somewhere down the line, with another ball club.
Kings for me. I gotta root for Mike Brown. Think he’s a great coach based on his work with the Warriors and what he learned from the experience. Also nostalgic for the Kings of old: Weber, Peja, Divac, Bibby. Jason Williams. Still mad about this damn Robert Horry shot in 2002. Someone please rebound! https://youtu.be/iYQDsZljAOY
Booker is playing his ass off. If this is him becoming a dude rather than a really good player, the Suns might have a higher ceiling than many of us thought.
“In Chicago we had an out of bounds play called ‘What the f–k’ and you get to Chicago and Phil says ‘Alright, let’s run what the f–k,’ and we’re all like ‘What? Why would they call a play ‘what the f–k?’ Kerr said.
[...]
We call that play ‘What the f–k’ right now with the Warriors.
[...]
“We have a signal for it. … And the other team now, everybody knows it, knows the play, so the other team will be yelling ‘What the f–k! What the f–k!’ And I always laugh thinking about the people in the first row going ‘What the f–k? Yeah, what the f–k is happening right now?’”
Whichever Western games get recorded that night, flip very fast through it to see if there's an interesting ending.... maybe if it's a good eastern matchup (Celts/Bucks kind of games...)
It looks like my job search is at an end! Waiting to speak with a dean of a law school in around an hour to hopefully verbally accept a job offer! Details to follow!
Though tbh I basically watch no non-Warriors basketball during the regular season. There are 82 games that the Warriors play which is already 20+ more than I can watch lol.
There are other teams besides whomever the Warriors play on a given night?

What a teammate.
Hey what do you know. Another letdown game for a team coming in from winning their regular season championship
Mavericks made a big comeback in the final minutes of the game to force an overtime, but they eventually fall to the Pistons 131-125.

Eric, you know which play this is?
In Western Conference: Sacramento Kings
In the East: Brooklyn Nets
I've bought 20plus jerseys of the Dubs in years, but I really love a lot of past and present Nets uniforms
I verbally accepted the position! I'll reveal where I'm headed once I've signed on the dotted line!
Which teams?
Whichever Western games get recorded that night, flip very fast through it to see if there's an interesting ending.... maybe if it's a good eastern matchup (Celts/Bucks kind of games...)
Plus the trainwreck teams like LAL.
The only non-Warriors teams I watch are the teams playing against the Warriors... as Sword mentions, there's a lot of Warriors games already.
OT, but somewhat Warriors related:

Kings, Nuggets. Pels if Zion is playing.

Woof. Al Horford signed an extension with the Celtics for 2 years, $20 million.
I realize Horford is not the Horford of old, but he's still playing 31 minutes a game and shooting .488 on 3's (at age 36).
Quite a home team discount.
My respect for Lebron went up even more - I dislike him on the field but relaly respect him off it!
