There are lifelong learners and there are lifelong nonlearners. Both kinds may or may not be hard workers. Jordan Poole and Andre Drummond are in the same category for probably entirely different reasons.
It still amazes me that one day long ago Poole and John Beliein looked at each other and thought they were a good match.
This seems like a suspension of maaaaaaaaany games for Draymond. One of the more egregiously violent things Iāve seen on a court.
Itās over for him him, it has to be. One of the most violent displays Iāve ever seen in sports, Iāve never seen choking.
I mean itās getting to the point that he has to be more trouble than heās worth for several people both on the team and in the league office
However, the Warriors probably are a real contender but not without him, so theyāre going to excuse excuse excuse
I hope the Warriors slid a morality clause in that contract.
Theyāll defend him
I never thought Iād feel bad for Rudy Gobert but here we are.
They sided with Draymond over Poole with the suckerpunch. Say what you want about Jordan, but that was a big yikes.
Draymond didnāt care if Rudy did something or not, he was gonna choke him out no matter what.
I canāt believe this angle of Draymondās rear naked chokehold on Rudy Gobertā¦was caught on camera - Steve Kerr
18/8/5 for Duncan tonight in a Heat win.
Jettās line tonight is pretty funny:
4 minutes, 0-4 shooting, all from 3.
Unless thereās major injuries on other top contenders, warriors aināt a contender with or without green
he was on the Jeff Teague podcast recently and he talked about starting an app to train people how to jump higher, but also said he was trying to make a come back to the league. It was funny to me that he thought a vertical jump training app was a novel idea.
There was some company with a similar idea that used to advertise at the beginning of every NBA player highlight video on YouTube. I canāt remember the exact name tho, āBoingVertā or something like that maybe lol.
thereās a billion of them. Everybody wants to dunk, few can. Iām not laughing for him wanting to start the biz, but like itās nothing new.
Lol, I remember begging my mom for the vertical-increasing traning shoes when I was like 14 or 15. I remember seeing these absurd shoes in person at my friends house while watching Nick Van Exel in the NCAA tournament, to date it (Iām old)
Sadly, even at 6ā2" (6ā3" in shoes!), I never threw one down. The closest I came was dunking on an outdoor court by the track outside the CCRB. I believe the rim was only 9ā9". I think I probably couldāve gotten to the promised land if I hadnāt had my 2nd ACL blowout. Or, if Iād been able to get so I could palm the ball.
That was in the 90ās and Iām still a little sad about it.
@mgl I thought about buying those shoes too!
Use this one weird trick to finally dunk the basketball!
The basketball hoop I had in the driveway growing up was actually only 9ā-8" when we finally decided to measure it. Led me to believe I was a lot closer to dunking then I actually was at 5ā-9".
