Shocked to see Lamelo out tonight. Our team has such a loser mentality. I would have loved to see him in OT last night, since he was going sit this game anyway. would those 5 minutes really would have made his ankle fall offf. Still mad from last night.

Tre manns baggy shorts remind me of this

This is a big game for Kon. Stoked to see what he can do against a championship team.

powellrmp

More like I can’t wait to see what a championship team tries to do against Kon

Do we have papa Kalk?

Mich_Mercer

He’s back. We’re going to need him.

Did you know we traded SGA for Miles Bridges?

I know that makes you happy Powell

dnbman

Evening. If somebody wants to DM me a link, box is open.

powellrmp

A link?

dnbman

Yeah. Sometimes people have links.

powellrmp

Works well for me

dnbman

Powell has no chill

Mich_Mercer

I like the jerseys but not the blue court

Looks like we are playing in OKC

powellrmp

The blue courts look like phoenix

dnbman

Yeah, do not like

powellrmp

Just as the bucks floor looked like Charlotte floors. Someone has to stop this madness

Mich_Mercer

I really do like the orange / yellow logo.

Why it is blue?

Like at least the center area had some texture… but he blue in the paint is bad to me

powellrmp

“Im afraid i blue myself”

-Tobias funke

Wow Kalk looks like a huge dork. But he’s my dork. Daddy dork Kalk

Nipple triple

Guys Kalk impacts so many shots without fouling

joy 1
dnbman

Yeah, love that he can stay out there and defend without fouling.

Also love he can hit FTs.

powellrmp

I hate this floor and I hate the jerseys. Sorry. I wanted to try to like this stuff. And I tried. It’s just…dumb

It’s as dumb as mumble rap

dnbman

They just dropped the Harlem Shake. tF!?

powellrmp

They should pick it right back up

TheDorkLord

I too tried to like these jerseys, but I'm not digging it

dnbman

True story though: turn down for what is eternal

Mich_Mercer

Love hearing Lamelo will be on a minute restriction all year it seems. Great to hear that.

TheDorkLord

we are tanking this year

dnbman

LaMaybe Ball

Mich_Mercer

So like… will her never play in an OT game ever again? Bc that’s what it sounds like… if we are going to be so exact about his minutes.

TheDorkLord

go Kalk, wish that had gone down

dnbman

Kalk about to bury people.

Mich_Mercer

KJ SIMPSON!! Yes!!

powellrmp

When I saw the jerseys and court as pictures, I thought I’d give them a chance. But as I see them together via video, it actually kind of hurts

dnbman

Tre-I going to show out this game.

Mich_Mercer

I hope so… hope he’s better than the dude who lost us the game in OT last night.

TheDorkLord

I'm just trying to figure out how we can get Powell put his favorite avatar back

maybe Miles can show out

dnbman

gotta calm down

powellrmp

I get so annoyed with hearing Coach Lee screaming “FIVE FOUR THREE…”.

Mich_Mercer

Damnit dude… now I can’t stop hearing it. lol

powellrmp

About the shot clock

Mich_Mercer

If KJ Simpson his two 3s, he has to change it to KJ

powellrmp

“Tough sequence for kj”

Most sequences are tough for him. And me

joy 1
dnbman

That was an inside out play. Just want to add

powellrmp

I don’t know what that means

dnbman

I know these things have been contentious of late

The modern NBA mind cannot comprehend.

powellrmp

Is that some sexual innuendo for gen alpha

Like 67 or something

dnbman

[waving hands]

powellrmp

Someone was talking about “the high post.” I just don’t get it. You can run the offense out of the post? I thought that was illegal. You can do things other than threes or dunks??

dnbman

You can crossover. Hit triangle and do spin move.

powellrmp

I can’t believe I’m watching this game

dnbman

Tell me about Antonio Reeves. I guess he had a little run scoring near 20 last year?

On cue, Antonio. Well played

powellrmp

My wife has Covid. So we’re not doing our normal Saturday thing. Or our normal Friday thing. So I’m watching whatever this is

dnbman

This is the sports part of the betting.

powellrmp

I’m so over hearing Coach Lee screaming “FIVE FOUR THREE…”

This isn’t ymca 8 year old team. They know the fucking shot clock

I want to get a ticket right behind our bench just to yell random numbers as he’s screaming to our adult hornets that they have a shot clock

Does no one on our squad have the balls to say “hey Coach Lee, shut the fuck up. Why don’t you focus more on your insane rotations and less on telling grown ass adults who have played basketball for 20 years that there is a shot clock?”

Why feel the need to scream the shot clock to professional adults?

dnbman

Kalk.

is good

100 1
powellrmp

Until Ryan kalkbrenner shoots a three I will set my avatar to kj Simpson

Here we go. Kj Simpson until Kalkbrenner shoots a three

dnbman

Maybe there's something to drafting more mature players in the 2nd round.

I don't think the players can tell Lee to be quiet when they keep getting to the end of the shot clock without a quality shot.

100 1
powellrmp

But oh no! They might be older than 20!!

Kalk! That’s a grown ass man

dnbman

fo sho!

Mooose had no business making that shot

powellrmp

The lineup I want to see:

Melo/Kon/Miller/Moussa/Kalk

Moussa can guard anyone. And if Kalk starts shooting a few threes…

dnbman

Shai is so good.

powellrmp

Let’s be serious

What team would actually want to trade for Miles bridges

dnbman

I still think he has value

powellrmp

Really???

Makes 25m this year. And 23m next year

dnbman

Yeah, but so do a lot of NBA players

ray

Tre manns baggy shorts remind me of that one cj mcollum photo when he was a kid

powellrmp

He’s a subpar three point shooter who is a bad defender. Thats the opposite of what playoff teams want. (Aka the 3&d player)

ray

Wow thats a crazy sga middy

100 1
powellrmp

That indeed was sick

At 20+ million. I just don’t understand how that’s an interesting player to trade for

Dude Kon. That was such a good move to the basket

Don’t care that it was blocked

TheDorkLord

this court keeps my mind thinking this is an away game

100 1
powellrmp

Kon is so crafty. Doesn’t need to be insanely athletic. Great first step, quick move, and use of his frame

Great explaination

OKC coach disagrees

powellrmp

I need Kalk to shoot a three

Guys. Miles bridges is literally shooting his career average from three this year. 34%

100 1
dnbman

37 on the season

powellrmp

Yeah you’re right. 36.7%, but 34% career. My bad there

I love the segment with mugsy and Dell answering questions

The question pulled that said “what past teammate do you least want to get in a fight with.”

I immediately screamed “Oak.”

And that was the immediate answer from both :rofl:

Ah lawd. SGA just gave Kalk the business

Guys, Sion IS dort

Cason Wallace is so damn good

Again, this is going to be a grisly third quarter. Yet again

Wow. Would love to see a touch in the post

Horrible basketball

There it is. Pass to Kalk. He’s huge

I’m like a minute behind the game. Fuck me

Wow. Horrible basketball. I’m tapping out fellas

GoBobcats24

Guess Kon got benched

He is working out some sort of injury

He's on the bike

Has something wrapped around left quad area

dnbman

Stepped away. That escalated quickly.

GoBobcats24

Kon back in. Guess we just decided to sit him most of the 3rd

Kon def playing through some sort of injury

Wincing and limping
