Man has been killing so far, fair play to him The best thing for him is to go to a good team as a middle finger to the unappreciative Knicks fans who booed him and bombarded the twitterspehere after he was their first pick. He's shown why he was a first pick.

Needed double OT to get past Boston but Warriors now 24-0 and 2nd all time longest winning streak with 28 games.
Also 6-0 on this roadtrip and a win against the Bucks tomorrow will make the Warriors the first team ever to sweep a roadtrip of I think 5 games or longer.

They still got to win the Championship otherwise these records are useless imo. I see 4 teams who can beat GSW in a 7 game series. They are playing great atm and Curry is easily the MVP.

was drunk the other night and looking at old nba highlights. This dunk has to be my absolute favourite, so nasty. If anyone can beat this one post it here.

David Blatt fired from the cavs, ESPN reporting that over the lost month he had lost the locker room
That demolition job by the warriors last week must've been the nail, even with them starting to run away with the East

Also Jerome Randle is a player that's way too good to play in the NBL - constantly getting game MVP
This will be the only season hes here in Australia, he'll settle for a euro league payday

Australia drawn with USA in Olympic basketball group stageAAP appearing in the Guardian on 12 March, 2016 wrote:The Australian men’s basketball team will face defending champions the USA in the group stage of this year’s Olympics, delaying a possible meeting in the knockout rounds. The world No1 outfit have eliminated the Boomers in the quarter-finals of the past two Games, in London and Beijing, denying them a crack at an elusive Olympic medal. But being drawn in the same group gives them a chance to progress before potentially facing the Americans again deep in the finals phase. Australia have been drawn in Group A, alongside the USA, China, Venezuela and two teams to be decided at qualifying tournaments in July. Spain, Argentina, Brazil and Lithuania headline Group B, which also includes Nigeria and one qualifier. Andrej Lemanis’ men will open their campaign against two qualifiers on 6 and 8 August, before the USA on 10 August, China on 12 August and Venezuela on 14 August. The Australian women’s team are scheduled to play Brazil first-up, followed by clashes with two qualifiers, then Japan and another qualifier. The Opals are aiming to win their sixth consecutive Olympic medal but first gold. http://www.theguardian.com/sport/2016/mar/12/australia-drawn-with-usa-in-olympic-basketball-group-stage Edited by quickflick: 12/3/2016 08:24:16 PM

Virtually no chance of upsetting a team that has James and Curry.
But I really hope they can medal. Mills as main scorer for us. Simmons off the bench to chip in. Dellavedova has improved a lot and Bogut will be invaluable.
One of the criticisms of Simmons is that he's not good at the line. I don't get this. How can you be average at FTs when you can score from so many other parts of the court?

I'll be surprised if Simmons actually goes to Rio.

But how do they manage to post seemingly easier shots elsewhere on the court but do so abysmally at the line? Its probably something that isn't a huge priority for most players in the USA. In Europe the players there are great in all fundamentals of the game. Even most of the centers and forwards are very capable 3 point shooters. I was a very good free throw shooter when I played. Driving to the basket was my biggest strength so I thought Id work hard on my free throws to take advantage of any Illegal contact. Id always watch the rim, bounce the ball a couple of times. Bend the knees, using my knees to do most of the work in terms of power. On the rare occasion I did miss, Id readjust.

I do know he started out with the clips, hes known for dunking the ball and thats about it :-k Anyway the point of the post was that Griffin was on a tv show, sportspeople arent known for acting that much. Lebron James had a role on Trainwreck, although he outstayed his welcome in that film Edited by condemned666: 2/4/2016 10:24:05 AM

So Thon Maker wants to enter the 2016 draft. If he does it would probably give Australia two very high first round draft picks with him and Simmons.
