i have something to say about the offseason THE 2016 NBA OFFSEASON

i am slowly owning everybody simply by giving them time to own themselves

best plan, death is the ultimate own

clay i messaged u some info on twitter

remember when he got mad because simmons wouldn't put him in a links article

i missed the tweets last night & then someone sent me that apology and i almost fell off my couch

i had to read the opening sentence like 3 times

remember when he sarcastically RTed me saying freedarko was the worst writing ever off a name search lol

anyway someone (not an ilxor) has messaged me to say he is nice just a lil sad and crazy and now i feel bad for vaguely antagonizing him a few times

ugh i didn't even read that medium thing until now and hadn't got wind of any of this, jesus that is v bad

the implied defensive meltdown is the most brutal part

weve read this blog before

being low-level internet famous is a pretty sick fate

ha srsly just ruins yr mentions

So you’ve been the Nuggets trainer for 20 years. You’ve trained some big boys–Kenyon Martin, Andre Iguodala, Kenneth Faried come to mind. Who is pound for pound the strongest player you’ve been exposed to?

Earl Boykins.

If you’re talking about pure strength pound for pound, not even close. He bench pressed 315 pounds and the dude weighed 150. Dude was a genetic freak.

Boykins height and weight is officially listed at 5’5”, 133 lbs.

What kind of guy is J.R. Smith? He seems like a dude who shows up to the area five minutes before game time, downs a Whopper in the parking lot, and just shoots.

Firstly, if I had the athleticism and the skills of JR, I would also just show up to a game and shoot. The thing about JR is that he’s a fierce competitor. People will say he’s not a competitor, but he’s a warrior. I’m so incredibly proud of him for winning a championship.

We had a rotation we were doing, and with the single leg press, this is the honest to God truth, he’s doing a single leg press with six 45’s on each side (585 pounds). Mind you, this is coming back from a meniscus tear and it was like 3 weeks post surgery. Now I didn’t load the weights and if I did I’d be fired so quickly. So I go up to him and I’m like ‘JR, dude what the hell are you doing?’ and he looked at me casually and said ‘I just wanted to see how strong my leg was.’

So I go ‘let me see you jump,’ and he takes off, and I’m like ‘really dude? It’s like, 40+ inches. 21 days post-surgery. Just a genetic freak. Supremely gifted.

rest of that article isnt v good btw

have no idea who two of those guys are

some of these guys look like contest winners
"enter to win a roster spot on an nba franchise!"
"aw yisss"
"btw its the nets"
:-|

"good restaurants nearby!"
"hmm ok"

who are LEvert, Hamilton and Harris?

i could look them up but i have no idea lol

sad that Nets couldn't afford rights to NBPA usage

joe harris was on the cavs iirc been in the league a couple few years

not buying it

I see they took away their ties as suicide prevention

lol

Earl Boykins.

If you’re talking about pure strength pound for pound, not even close. He bench pressed 315 pounds and the dude weighed 150. Dude was a genetic freak.

Boykins really was a physical marvel. One of the rare NBA guys whose pecs were so big that the jersey couldn't cover them.

Miles Plumlee 4/52 to stay in Mil. Seems pretty pricey for a guy they play only 15 mins a game. altho might work out since they will probably move monroe at some point soon

He's a perfect player for them, I like it.

he was so fun for that one season w PHX then seemed to lose all his confidence about three quarters through the season

That USA select roster is not bad actually- McCollum booker oladipo lavine isn't a bad guard rotation at all, and I'd probably go McDermott-Gordon-turner frontline. I'm not clear on what that team exists for though, basically practice against the big boys and auditions for the next world tournament?

ya

A week or so ago the local newspaper's website, OregonLive.com reported "Guard CJ ‍McCollum has decided to withdraw from the ‍USA Select ‍Team and will not participate in ‍USA Basketball’s ‍team camp this summer..."
