you can ponder why heat straightens out plaintains as they turn to boli, while you are selling it on the roadside. or wether peanuts are better boiled or roasted as you sell satchets of groundnut

I hope we now play without the pressure of keeping a streak. It was an amazing experience for this roster.
#greenrunsdeep

this is a good time to be a celtic. my hats off to kyrie - shut everyone up with game instead of media rants

see I hate it when cavs win like this. How are nets scoring 110 points on you. Lebron is bailing out a team that is complete crap on defense. Lue needs to be more hard @ss on this!!! You are not going to outcoach brad stevens...at least have top 5 defense in the league, not dead last

Decale:
D'antoni?

who dash monkey banana...not this year

Eruditor:
Curry and Steve Kerr?

wasnt aware of that... ainge sef fit chop GM of d year too

has coach of the year and mvp ever come from the same team before? this might be the season

SmooshCHN:
Please tell that man.. It's fúcking awful to watch Rivers handle the ball as their PG.. Clippers ain't ready for anything.

Rivers tries to be impartial, but there is no good way to coach a professional team with your son on it

Lmao una dey mara for this place.

I tell uuuuu

When lonzo cut hair sef

Roland17:
We just have to stay in the moment. I am loving the discipline in not switching personnel and controlling the tempo of the game. Fans of the Brooklyn Nets may burn their GM's house after watching J. Brown this season.

Kudos to the celtics. Withstood the offensive spurts by warriors and kept the tempo uncomfortable. Usually teams get baited to returning firepower for firepower and forget transition defense. This squad is making noise!!

Donlittle:
Lol Give him some time though, he can turn it around. He just needs to improve his shooting, and his pops needs to stop talking

well, there is no hope then, because his pops will NOT stop talking. I hate that dude for exposing his own kid like this

Then the "coup" has failed. Old boy Mugabe has been alerted. The General shouldn't have opened his mouth-at least not yet. If Old Bob doesn't start picking up Generals like mushrooms from their various homes,then I will know that old age has really softened him. Remember how the 2015 coup in Burundi failed right? It had to do with some generals inability to shut their mouths and plan meticulously.

for where. coup is a success like I told you. As you can see, it is good night for Mugabe. He gravely miscalculated how much support he had, probably spurred on by his jezebelic wife. The moment he started attacking other founding fathers, he attacked the same aura that made him invincible. Before the fiasco with the VP, the army stepping in was unthinkable. Mugabe sowed the seeds of his own ouster. I hope Grace Mugabe gets a long jail term for something

Decale:
Korver is just a streak shooter. He has to get into rhythm and most especially, get people to create shots for him. He brings a game close but cannot close out one.

Curry can shoot a 3 when you want him to, creating it; another advantage. That's why he's one of the best in clutch 3s. Again, he does that with a defender on his face. Breaking almost all 3 pointers records in that short time makes him better.

Any coach knows who to pick...

Dis man allow us to dream for one nite na

mansakhalifa:
Talkative Army Chief. Now expect the purge going on in the ZANU-PF to be extended to the Army. You don't go on air to make such statements,you strike and take the State unawares. What sort of soldiers are these?

What is the old man going to do? He probably sleeps 12hrs a day at this point. By the time the army chief is making such statements, his boys are already guarding tne presidential family.
Mugabe erred trying to take out his fellow criminals for his wife...even among thieves, small honor dey

SmooshCHN:
And this is what we're saying. The West is so competitive good teams don't even get recognized, players like Jokic, Lillard are overlooked. If they were in the East, 2nd or 3rd seed for sure.

Dont be so sure - exciting basketball is not necessarily better basketball.

The East has a lot of players that can play the western conference tempo and get buckets - see p george and melo in uptempo OKC for example. East is just more of grind basketball - in fact all the teams that won rings from ECFin recent memory have all loved to grind . From pat rileys's heat (both wade/shaq and wade/lebron), cavs, detroit pistons, even that crazy celtics team with the big 3 played ugly outside a few heroics.

On the other hand, also note that the perennial ugly ball team in the west, AKA spurs has consistently been on top with 50+wins and 5 rings - they have survived the high powered lakers, the really good Kings who look the most like today's warriors, the high voltage suns (nash, amare, j johnson), the mavs who took 3s like its garri water, etc. And yet, there are the spurs. The WCF is not any more talented than the ECF. If anything, the ECF plays better, if less flashy bball.

Btw I think cavs need to get back to that kind of ugly ball - trying to play uptempo with the 10 shooters on the court is a recipe for disaster. I know LBJ is no longer at the physical top of his game, but this team should be able to lock down opponent for 4 or 5 possessions in a row

aliondo:
we keep making the same glaring mistake every game and you expect us to win??

What mistake

I think Rose is done. What a shame....I remember when he was the man in chicago, and his family would be yapping like they owned d team. Dis life...

IT has that look tho...cavs need him back and he knows it

Cavs look like crap

VivaLaByke:
OMG LONNNNNZZZOOOO....EASY PENETRATION.

Lmao...nuff said...smh

Somehow I actually like the Lonzo kid...he does have exvellent court vision, can initiate offense and finish at the rim, silent but deadly type of dude.

Its a shame he has a dad that likes to eat his own young. This kid should be dropping more points and assists than he is right now...but folks are bringing their a+ game every night because of his dads words.

I hope all this hype blows over soon so this kid can really start to play.

lolawilliams:
Lol, Hmmm Na Birdman cause all this. How TF did i end up with a team like this in the first place AAAHHH

no be my fault ooo... i gentle for my corner. The injury gods are strong this seson

Thunder sleepwalked into a blowout. These guys are legit. I think this is potentially the deadliest trio in the league. They are not pure shooters like the warriors big 3, but they can score and affect the game with their size strength and speed. Im not sure they even need a deep bench. Either paul george or melo can run with the second team and keep them potent

lolawilliams:
Cavs will improve as they play more together, they didn't play well enough last night. Second half seemed a bit aimless, they almost blew their lead and the Celtics came bacl from slack defense and turnovers.

I wish Hayward a speedy recovery. LeBron and Kyrievat the end hits me badly but i guess he get what he wants now.

Im glad the Lebron and Kyrie kinda de-escalated the issue at the end. Another reason Lebron is not Kobe or Jordan. Those guys will hold the grudge for as long as possible

WeissBarlow:
LeBeautiful

Lol...ok a little too much bro love dere

Bobbieydeey:
Even though my team cavs won, I'm not convinced!!!! Loads of stuffs to work on btw prayers up for Hayward that was legit nasty

I had to miss this game...but I wouldnt judge either team on this game. I would guess way too much emotional energy will make tjis game meaningless

Wao..I missed that quote. No words for how the season started off for celtics.

rotimi9:

We have 14 teams this year, so make sure you draft well. I added double doubles as a stat category. This will help teams that have solid rotation big men, but no superstar guards. Check it out, lemme kno what yall think

It really is insane. I've met Caribbean folks who know P-Square and listen to their music, not Mr. P or Rudeboy. I've heard their (P-Square) songs on some black radio stations. In fact, I walked into a clothing store at one shopping mall in the summer and one of their songs was being played. They've managed to make a name for themselves as a group all these years only to now separate and throw everything down the drain by going solo. The chances of me meeting someone who knows P-Square is higher than the chances of meeting one who knows Mr. P or Rudeboy. And it's not everyday you see black twin brothers making music together, so they stood out as a group and were well liked together.

same story with fugees no? at some point, the price of fame becomes too steep. When people start throwing shade at you and your family, to me that is the line in the sand where you have to man up and take your destiny into your own hands. He may never reach the same level of fame, but it is what it is. I wish him well

i do not believe in miracles anyway, but here is one of you guys, Benny Hinn, agreeing with the catholics that what they call Eucharist is the true body and blood of Jesus like Jesus said in the bible. He claimed that there are 'healings' because of that in those churches too.

Not the same thing - Hinn qualified it and said "in the spirit, its his body". Which is exactly what separates what Protestants from what mainstream Catholics believe....that the bread literally transforms into the physical body at the time of eating. Remember, even Jesus qualified it and said "as often as you do this, do it in remembrance of me". Remembrance o...

Furthermore, the church is called the body of Christ. Is this also the case everyone in church is physically Christ's body like Catholics believe? Of course not - it is a figure of speech to describe a deeper spiritual truth. Spiritual things often do not have appropriate physical words to convey their meaning.

Btw, Hinn is wrong on this. Your faithfulness to your church is not the primary driver to getting healed. There are millions of faithful church people that don't have healing. Its faith in the love of God.

And the father he was talking about is spelt Makary...Makary Younan
