In short, to remember in the NBA (and elsewhere)
- Jimmy continue his self-promo.
- We really liked the presence ofOne’s Edges last night. What ease, what quality of placement. On each poster put up by BAM, Enes is superb. Really photogenic guy.
- Are you fed up with seeing your colleagues’ face and going to the office? Move to Canada!
- Diana Taurasi is still lethal. The shoot, the fault, the attitude. Everything is there.
- If you hear a slot machine sound, don’t worry, it’s just capitalism that’s putting it deep in Banksy.
- Raptors reportedly interested in signing Montrezl Harrell. Would they feel like the guy wants a change of scenery?
- We found the new superteam: Chris Rock, Dave Chapelle and Adam Sandler in the same movie!
- This move of Tyler Herro is really dirty.
- A new documentary on Netflix takes a look at the ravages of social media on our mental health.
- Come on, it’s Friday, we can afford a crash course on tequila.
- After China Klay, or Headband Klay, here is Kayak Klay. And strangely, we want to know more.
Kayak Klay ????

In short, to forget in the NBA (and elsewhere)
- Paul George has been compared to Dwight Howard. Kuzma wished defend your teammate. In the bubble, everything is reversed. Crazy.
- John Collins would be of interest to the Warriors who could drop their 2nd draft pick for him. Hmmm … Rumor, rumor.
- Scalabrine compares the Celtics to the Clippers… The ugly soup-spitter.
- Drake won his own league and celebrated as it should. Finally, as if it was an NBA title what … Sacred Drake. They say that the ridiculous does not kill but there all the same …
Drake won his basketball league and celebrated like only he can ????

The equal
There’s a guy who bet $ 200,000 on the Lakers’ final victory. Looks like we can’t wait to see her face when Butler or Jokic will lift the trophy, but the bettor is probably a relative ofAdam Silver who knows that the script is already written so that LeBron gets closer to Jordan and that the NBA rakes in billions by exploiting the narrative arc …
The click?
Marcus Smart was very decisive in the previous round against the Raptors, and not just thanks to his counter on Norman Powell. During Game 1 of the conf ‘finals, he could have been too: of the 12 baskets scored by the Heat after the third quarter, how many were on Smart? Zero. It was not enough, but it says a lot …
And if he only put 14 pts to 5 out of 13 last night, a defeat to the key, he may well have again made the decisive move of the series last night. Some journalists report that he gave a few insults and stole items from the locker room after the game. Those who have already been to a locker room know: sometimes, a good old general muddle is the solution to get a team back on track, in any case more than a shy one ” Come on guys, we’re not giving up “. It’s a double-edged sword, but if PG or Kawhi had been able to put pressure on the group, they might not be on vacation …
The obvious player: Goran Dragic
For a few days, Goran walks on water anyway. Another 25 pawns passed to Boston D last night at 10/19. Is there anyone to stop him? Jimmy’s coffee must definitely have regenerating effects.

The less obvious player: Jae Crowder
Arrived on tiptoe in the roster, Crowder has not made sparks this season. Always useful, but not especially in sight when the group was carried by the hype of the two rookies and his two All-Stars. But since the playoffs, the Bulldog of the Heat has taken a prominent place. Yesterday, the biggest game time (36 min) is him. The big three-point shoots, with Robinson, that’s him. Interceptions that kill, it’s Jimmy, but it’s also him (3 in the match). And his defense. Nothing to say. The guy is on top.
End of vacation
Ah back to school, always a complicated time for students or workers. After having nothing bra … fucked up during the holidays, hard to tell yourself that you have to get back to it. It was so good to take it easy, to tell ourselves that we could stake ourselves late because we wouldn’t need energy the next day, etc. But now, all that has an end and the return to reality is not easy. We therefore necessarily have a thought for all those who return to schools, factories or offices … like JaVale McGee and Dwight Howard. It’s the same every time. Far from the rhinestones of the game on the periphery, the big men toil all year round impatiently awaiting their series against the Rockets to be able to enjoy a well-deserved rest. But it goes too quickly and it’s never easy to get back into the bath …
We put that there

The real question
Before match 2, Gordon Hayward has seen its status changed to “doubtful”. Basically, if he did not finally play, his return is imminent. One more weapon for the C’s. Or not. Kevin Garnett raised a real point. Despite the two losses against Miami, Boston turned out very well in his absence. We know the fragile balances in the NBA. The return of a player like Hayward, excellent but not essential in view of the series against Toronto, may as well break this found dynamic as be a solution to the difficulties encountered in the first games. A hell of a puzzle for Brad Stevens…
Dumb and dumber
Hassan Whiteside It might be horrifying on a pitch, but what would we like to follow in a reality show. The daily adventures would be extraordinary. And especially not to script the thing too much because even with a team of 27 highly doped screenwriters and more excited than a Westbrook-Beverley mix, fiction would be less crazy than reality. If you don’t believe us, check out this tweet in which we don’t know what makes the least sense.

Obviously, Blanc-cote managed to have a 50,000-round assault rifle stolen from a 400,000-shot car … which he had not closed. And then there are guys who pay millions this kind of guy hoping that he is focused and involved for 48 minutes more than 82 times a year ???? Hard to know who holds the biggest layer in this story …
Tweet of the day
Beautiful – and very technical – tweet on Paul George, to sum up all the harm he did to the Rivers family by making two of his members believe that he would bring them a ring …
Damn Paul George disrespectful… Costed Doc Rivers and his daughter a ring..
— ???????????????????? ???? (@sovvac) September 17, 2020
He’s not an All-Star, but at least Seth Curry took care of one of the two rings since …
Souvenir
These cons high school students decided to trashtalk Tyler Herro before his highschool match… He got them 45 points and a triple-double #JimmyButlerMentality
Gift
As we know that you, too, feel weird to follow the playoffs without the Spurs, we found this little nugget of Tim Ducan at college to compensate. We beg you.
Sound of the day: Conway & Method Man “Lemon”
It’s been a while since we last heard Method Man so in good shape!
THE LAST SHOT
