    The Process will make a great 30 for 30 someday. Maybe they can finally shine light on the Embiid pick.

    And when he left, Hinkle wrote a 13-page letter of CRAZY AS FUCK. Read this (or the excerpts provided) and it's obvious what the issue is. Dude's very book-smart, but has no actual practical knowledge or usefulness in a field that involves dealing with actual humans.

    What. The. Fuck. Did. I. Just. Read...

    Page 4 about GS made some sense so I chose to stop there
  • Iliketurtles
    I read the whole 13 page letter. It was pretty informative and Hinkie is definitely smart he just shouldn't be dealing with any sports teams. It will be interesting to see what happens to the 76ers now.

    The Process.

  • Heretic
    Not to constantly pile on poor Hinkie, but this is a great takedown of his fucked up attempt to explain why he was a failure. Okay, I love piling on him; regardless of what anyone might think of their team's management, they aren't all about being proud of losing all the time because they then might win sometime in the future, whenever that might be.

    What's going on with Bosh? I know he's having blood clot issues again. He expected back this year?

    I think the Heat has said they have basically no idea.

    Season on the line. Need to win to keep up with 8th seed Jazz. Respond by giving up 124 points to the Suns last night and losing.

    The fans wearing Warriors jerseys in Memphis piss me off. Everything about this team is obnoxious. The jerseys with sleeves are also stupid AF.

    There is an all Curry section they have devoted to him too. The link is for his player page but its far more advanced than everyone but possibly LeBron.

    I was reading it earlier. One of them was something along the lines of, "Andrew Bogut tells offensive jokes." Another was, "They have nicknames that don't make sense." Another: "They skip the national anthem some nights." I was confused.

    They also kept calling them the Dubs, which is another thing that is fucking stupid.

    I like that graphic, nice way to see what could still play out.

    How long has ABC lit up the arc on 3 point attempts?

    I'd say a couple months.

    I wish nothing more than to see their season somehow blow up.

    I mean, to be fair, can you imagine if the 96 Bulls and Jordan played during this social media and TV coverage era?

    Hmm, I guess I haven't watched any games on ABC. I don't know what it adds.

    I think Curry is fun to watch. I'm not a huge fan or root for him, but you have to appreciate a talent like his. I also like Steve Kerr. He's remained pretty soft-spoken despite all these older guys coming out voicing their opinions on the team and how'd they stack up in the past.
    So, that's two for me. Can't think of any others.
  • Azubuike24
    Had to promote a UK guy :)

    Devin Booker (19 years, 162 days old) is the 4th youngest player in history to score 1,000 points in the NBA. LeBron James, Kobe Bryant and Kevin Durant are the others who did it under 20.

    Those two, plus Andy. I like Walton, too. Draymond and the rest cancel it out for me, though.
