Watched Malice in the Palace tonight, it was great.
Highly recommend and interesting to think of the effects on the different players.

Tracking the careers of O’Neal, Artest and Jackson is quite something.
And Ben Wallace is a Hall of Famer….

An upgrade for Russ.
After completing a contract buyout, nine-time All-Star guard Russell Westbrook plans to sign with the LA Clippers, his agent, Jeff Schwartz of Excel Sports, told ESPN.
Once Westbrook and the Utah Jazz complete the buyout on the remaining $47 million owed on his expiring deal, the former NBA MVP will clear waivers and return to Los Angeles -- this time with the Clippers.

With those two guys, Russ doesn't need to shoot from deep. Of course that may not stop him....

Russ has been told he would have a well-defined role:
The Clippers became increasingly interested with Westbrook as team officials, including coach Ty Lue and president of basketball operations Lawrence Frank, dug into a series of conversations with Westbrook, sources said. Those discussions centered on Westbrook's willingness to fit into a clear and specific role with the Clippers built around his playmaking, rebounding and toughness, sources said.

You see, this conversation is what I had (wrongly?) assumed had taken place with LeBron, AD and Laker coaching ahead of their trade for him - and is why I thought the trade would work for them. Lead the 2nd unit, put the 3-ball away, bring energy and rebounding. Instead he jacked 4.1 3pta pg at a majestic .296 to ho along with a barrage of his trademark long 2's
I wouldn't trust him, though you have to think this is last-chance saloon for him
Also, I don't know if anyone bothered to watch the ASG, I certainly did not - and thank fck for that, what a hideous affair it looked to be. 126 3pta's including the East going 17-60

This. To be fair to him I don't believe the fit was good to start with

All Star Weekend now done and dusted. the ASG's ratings are in the toilet because it fucking sucks. Add in one more thing that star players don't care about (so that's the fans, the regular season, the team they play for, and the ASG) well, no, they still want their bonus for making it. They just don't want to put in the effort to make it a product that people give a shit about.
So now the season begins properly.
In the East you imagine, bar a blow up, that Boston and the Bucks are in the race for top seed. Philly and Cleveland probably get home court in the first round. Chicago and Indiana need to make up a couple of games to make the play in. Not easy in 25 games.
The Hawks should in the play in but they fired their coach? interesting moveIn teh West Denver has first spot locked up. And it feels weird even typing this, but the Kings are in with a shout of the Grizzlies in 2nd. But it's 3.5 games separating 3rd to 9th. The Lakers need to make up a couple of games just to fall in to 10th. The defending champs should make the play in, but don't look like being able to go on a run.
If a team is a going to do anything then it's time to show it now.
I still feel like it's Boston v Suns in the Finals, IF KD can get himself right.

If you haven't had a chance, watch the clippers kings game. Pretty entertaining. Also celtics 76ers game but the last minute in particular was intense

That win could prove costly

@voodoo @mariner4life make sure you tune in next week, there’s an epic back to back of games between Texas heavyweights, Houston and San Antonio.
Forget the Admiral vs The Dream from the 90s or even Duncan, Manu and Parker vs Martin, Lowry and Scola (circa 2010-11 when they were a playoff team) - we will have the Johnson, Sochan and Graham hitting the hardwood against Green, K-Mart Jnr and Sengun. Ratings bonanza.
