Lebron laying the groundwork for his next move…

The quote from Russ to go with it is straight cringe - bat flips are fun:

“How I play the game, I’m more old-school. And when s— like that happens, I don’t let it slide. … In the game of basketball, there’s certain things you just don’t do. Like in baseball, you don’t flip the bat. There’s certain things you don’t do in sports when the game’s already over. And I didn’t like it. Simple as that.”

Especially as he’s a pretty big showman when things are going well - which is good and entertaining, just don’t pretend you’re better than that when you’re losing and the other team has a bit of fun at the end of a game.

This coming from the guy that “rocks the baby” every time he does something is gold.

Is Zion actually Shaun Deeb?

Zion’s huge, but Deeb is still twice as big.

This shirt has enough fabric for 10 blankets.

Clever idea. Mashup of different uniform elements from each team’s history. Some are completely hideous, though (hi, Orlando). I am pleased that my NBA Champion Milwaukee Bucks clearly have one of the better uniforms, though I wish they would’ve added a little red somewhere.

I had almost the same thought, but my initial reaction was that it looked like the Miami River City Ransoms.

Pistons, Bucks, Spurs, Grizzlies all great.

Pelicans, Wizards, Nuggets, Heat, Pacers, Rockets, Raptors turrible

I actually dig the pacers one. Was planning on buying it if they ever decide to win a game.

Cade Cunningham looks impressive so far with 3-20 from the field and 0-12 from 3p in two games

Lakers with Russ so bad right now. Not even trying to get him in check.

Lakers down 3 and Melo has been hot from three in 4th, so of course, they have Russ iso and take a long contested three at the buzzer. Russ has to be the worst volume three point shooter of all time.

They have to work so hard to beat lottery teams. They just really look like a 7th seed.

Twitter seems to think that I really needed to see this:

Grim, awful, horrendous season for the Celtics so far. But Al Horford has been awesome. Double double with 3 blocks, 3 assists and a steal in 30 minutes.

And the flinch is back! Always delightful.

Antoine Walker was pretty bad.
