A workmanlike win over Portland and the Tiago Splitter Experience pulls the Clippers up to 2-1 and we're on track to Winning Season #15! Dy-nasty, babe, DYNASTY!! Feel the awesomeness!!

Yeah, I'm gonna keep doing this joke. Apologies.

According to Pablo Torre, Ty Lue is found in multiple incidents of the NBA poker scandal.

Which doesn't surprise me. Not about Ty Lue. But the FBI said the scam was offering gamblers a chance to play poker w/various NBA "legends". And the only ones arrested from the NBA were Billups & Jones?

Would love to see some footage.....Do you think Lue was given a special chair that made him look taller than all the other players at the table?

Ron Artest III dressing as his dad Meta World Peace for Halloween

I agree w/Jaylen. This was an inexcusable no-call.

Amazin69 · 11-04-2025, 07:23 PM

Dang. Ron/Metta didn't have to worry about somebody else slipping in and giving Mrs. Peace a piece of his DNA, I see. Ron III looks like a clone.

Also, am I shocked that Ty is caught in the poker scandal? Please. At this point I'm just numb.

The modern Dynasty that is the Clippers lost to GSW last Tuesday in a game I couldn't seen because of this "NBC Coast to Coast" crap (where they televise a Hawks game for the Eastern US and make sure that my NBA League Pass is as useless as Adam Silver as far as my desire to see the Clipper dynasty in action) and then played the Pelicans on Friday in an NBA Cup game that I chose not see and still haven't bothered to look up the result of.

Last night the Clippers hosted Miami and got roasted in both the 1st and 3rd Quarters because Cancer is the only real ball-handler in the starting line-up and so when the Heat was on, they forced 20 turnovers, 7 by Harden. The Clips made up for it with volume scoring (Harden 29 points, Leonard 27) in the even-numbered frames and tied it twice down the stretch, first on a baseline shot which Leonard somehow hit while fading away out of bounds and then when Harden hit a 3 from 28' or so.

And so the Clips came down the court, trailing 120-119, and Kawhi drew triple coverage and forced up the shot anyhow, with predictable results.

2-3. Sigh. Big match up tonight with SGA and the champs, which NBC will also ensure that I can't see. Thanks a lot, guys! Glad to have you back!

Does anyone feel sorry for Ja Morant?

I separate on court/field from off court/field except for when off effects your ability to be on.

Well his constant pouting is not endearing for a nine figure player who has had off court issues.

Pouting is never endearing. But I also don't know what is going on behind the scenes. These execs have a way of letting "anonymous sources" "leak" information to insiders to get their point of view out there. So if they want to make you look bad, they will do it cause the public & media will eat it up. See John Schuerholz & Deion Sanders.

But I'm also wary of the fact that Memphis is known as not just a dump, but a dangerous dump. So w/all the changes, it wouldn't shock me he is trying to force his way out.

monkeyman576 · 11-05-2025, 12:05 AM

I'm kind of shocked Memphis got a team actually.

Cobra Mgr · 11-05-2025, 12:30 AM

FedEx...........

I'm shocked Desmond Bane complained about getting ejected.

Jazz lose Walker Kessler for the year

Dubs @ Kings likely to be w/o Curry, Green, Butler, Sabonis & LaVine

NBA legend Lenny Wilkens dies @ 88.

1st NBA coach I could remember from my childhood.

Cobra Mgr · 11-11-2025, 12:25 AM

Cade Cunningham shot 45 times. 45 frikkin' times. Only made 14.You shouldn't shoot that many even if it was one on 5.

Cobra Mgr · 11-11-2025, 11:36 AM

Mavs firing Nico Harrison.

I say, "for what?!" if it is for trading Luka, he didn't do it w/o the blessing from the owners. And if it was for that, then why wait 9 months to can him?

Cobra Mgr · 11-11-2025, 11:46 AM

"Sugar" Michael Ray Richardson dead @ 70.

He would have been a legend & HOF if he could have kept his nose out of the powder.

Nektesko · 11-11-2025, 12:09 PM

I ran into that too and ended up tweaking the coaching strategy settings to better reflect my manager's style—it helped a lot. Also, while messing with those, I took a break and checked out some live games at https://i-sabong.asia to clear my head. Funny how letting your brain reset can make the solution more obvious when you get back into it.
