Dion balling. Kyrie running the show. Tristan continuing to grow at a ridiculous pace. Zeller protecting the rim. Cavs manhandling Denver...this is so enjoyable.

I expect everyone to regress in the second half though :chuckles:

And how about that Tristan Thompson ISO in the first quarter? Top of the key, outside the three point line, double crossover between his legs, drives into the key, spin move, soft left handed layup. Unreal. Where the fuck is this coming from?

God the Nuggets feed has shown that awful Drew Brews Pepsi commercial like five times now. It's so fucking terrible. Dude needs to fire his agent.

Irving and Waiters need to play their games on the court together.

No argument on that. It seems like Byron is playing the veterans both to try to win games and to try to smooth out things with all the youth. It is a form of player development, I just don't want it to be the only form he uses.

I'm watching the same broadcast. One direction must also be terminated. I thought boy bands were dead.

Playing a guy like Luke Walton is also for trade value. It Walton comes out and plays well, his expiring gains value.

You can tell Denver is a city of potheads. Every five seconds in-game they advertise Taco Bell or Pizza Hut.

A contender is going to pick up Walton for the stretch run? I just don't see it. It may be safer to play him fewer minutes so he doesn't hurt himself.

But, come to think of it, maybe the Lakers could use him... :chuckles:

Well I mean if they want to package a contract and a draft pick, getting back a guy who can actually play would be useful.

What's the record for fouls committed in a quarter?
