Season starts tonight with Knicks and Celtics followed by Lakers and TWolves.

Will history be made early in the 2nd game?

As you said he isn't playing defense. Here he is not defending and staying in so he get his 10 point to keep his streak alive. stat padding lol

For all you youngsters out there, you help out and protect the rim.

LeBron has more haters than any superstar in recent memory. I don't get it.

Maybe, just maybe, it has something to do with LeBron. Shocking, I know.

Who would you guys take in their prime:

Shaq or Jabbar

Same reason Mahomes has a ton of haters too, particularly from all of those who supported Brady's false claim for GOAT.

LeBron raining 3s tonight in Atlanta. I thought he couldn't shoot anymore?

It is true, he can be arrogant at times. But still, a top-five player of all-time. And last season, even at age 39, he was still a top-15 player.

He never could. The greatest bball players ever weren't shooters.

I will have to see if I can find that tweet from somebody that showed during the prime GS run they would be near the bottom of the league in 3pts attempts this season. Steph is 1 of 1 but every team now thinks they can shoot like him.

Curry is not "one of one". After 17 games, he is #42 in 3PT%

Draymond with an NFL tackle on Sengun that is somehow not a flagrant foul. Disgusting.

Always a good day when the Warriors lose.
