Crazy that the Bucks have such a successful tradition of streak busting. They've now ended six 12+ game winning streaks in their history. The previous five teams they stopped went on to win the NBA Championship.

71-72: ended Lakers' 33 game winning streak. The Lakers won the championship that season.
73-74: ended Celtics' 12 game winning streak. The Celtics won the championship that season.
82-83: ended 76ers' 14 game winning streak. The 76ers won the championship that season.
06-07: ended Spurs' 13 game winning streak. The Spurs won the championship that season.
10-11: ended Mavericks' 12 game winning streak. The Mavs won the championship that season.
15-16: ended the Warriors' 28 game winning streak (24 this season)...

Like Alex Len..


This lame Cy's really gonna bark about Len for years, and then say nothing when he's playing as he is now?

Trying to portray the Tyson Chandler signing as some condemnation of Len's potential. What an imbecile.

Both of the players he chose to nag me about for years in 2013 are legit. Schroder and Len. Get mad ******.

Vonleh is starting and coming along slowly too.

Julius Randle is obviously better than Aaron Gordon, the majority around here (led by Cy) thought you'd have to be an idiot to think that, back when it mattered.

Also remember when Jordan Adams was a way better basketball player than Zach LaVine?

Cy's basically Jazzfanz poster child for talking down to people like a punk, while not really knowing **** about the subject. Congrats.

Dont think I would talk to much about Schroeder right now. Doing very little.
 
Will Barton is like Elijah Millsap or Chris Johnson.. But much, much better. His contract's ridiculously cheap too.. Here's the best dunk from last nights NBA action;

Only a fool would doubt D'Angelo Russell at this point. Getting drafted infront of Jahlil Okafor means you're a made man, that flew over too many peoples heads - I'm still surprised about the aftermath, and it's public perception.

Many a Laker fan has hated on him too, unjustly. They mostly either wanted Okafor, or think Clarksons better, or both. They kill him for his athleticism (but mostly didn't realize he led OSU in rebounding).

I've been arguing across the internets in his defense for several months now, and he's gonna prove plenty of it true.

Been comparing him to some sort of Steph and Harden fusion for some time, and posters get all sorts of defensive about that ****. He looks good. I wholeheartedly believe the Lakers have him on the bench and have been limiting his minutes, because their tanking.

Don't think that's the strategy... as soon as Clarkson has recovered from injury they started him over Russell, they're now beating the Bucks by 20 pts...

Well if he's gonna get 30mpg, like last night, thats different. They still started him slow and it'd behoove the Lakers to finish in the bottom 3. They've certainly started out poor enough to make that happen.. Will DLo let it happen playing like this though??

averaging 19.5 / 2 / 5 on 42% from the field and 37% from three In the last 4 games.
 
Porz is on triple-double alert and just outplayed Towns in the first half, in a blowout. 5pts, 5 rebs 6 blocks in 12 minutes. He's blocked Wiggins 3x so far. Altered more than a few shots too.

@NBA approves ownership transfer of @BrooklynNets/ @barclayscenter to Prokhorov, source says. Valuation of $1.9 billion #sportsbiz

Now Prokhorov owns entire team & arena. Before he only owned 80% of team, 45% of arena. Ratner's group owned rest.

I didn't think it was possible, but the Nets just became an even worse franchise. He'll probably rename the team to the Rims.
