    So happy for Hachi.
    You guys don’t have to like him, but he ain’t the problem with this team.

    I was going to come in here and yell at him for not doing more when we were shorthanded. Made up for it with his first game winner though

    These sorts of angles show that these guys are all aliens not just Wemby. On TV it looks like Rui is wide open and he was by NBA standards.

    But god damn if I got this shot i would be freaked out completely because BI and that insane wingspan went from the paint to contest the 3 literally within a blink of the eys.

    So true. He looked like he had time to brew a tea, this angle shows how athletic and fast NBA caliber players are. To me LeBron looked like he almost fumbled and was slow as molasses on this last play, but from this angle it all looks smooth.

    yeah, when you sit close at these games (i've only done so once), the difference between this and the game you've played is sort of jarring. i remember seeing sam cassell and being like...he's huge, actually! and the speed is wild. it's why the rookies take time to adjust--and why i've held out some hope for knecht despite his advanced age. it's just not the same game.

    I remember getting tickets 18 rows behind the basket to the first round against OKC in 2010 and I couldn't believe how massive Ron Artest and Andrew Bynum were, just massive humans.
