First time in over 100+ games without a 3. Then he does what Curry does.

From the time the 3pt shot was introduced, it took 9000 NBA games for a team to hit 13 three pointers.

?@JustinVerrier
Alvin Gentry keeps referencing 1996-97 Suns team that started 0-13 yet made the playoffs ... after firing their coach 8 games in. Awkward.

The last 2 days espn has been asking if James Harden is the best player in the NBA.

He has had an epic start to this season, but that's hilarious nonetheless.

Shouldn't we defer to Nolie on this, or can the white dude from Toronto chime in on the black guy's thoughts on the word, "posse?" :)

Chris Paul's assist to turnover ratio has gone up every season of his career.

This is his 12th season.

Chrissy for MVP!!!

most underrated player of all time (maybe David Robinson... or if you want to get cute you can make a case MJ and Lebron are probably underrated in terms of true value)

what he's doing this year is not human.

he's probably the MVP thru the first dozen or so games and if you asked 100 people to pick the MVP right now i'd bet none would name him in the top 3.

Nope. Most underrated of all time is this guy:
Spoiler!
The hair, the name, the game. Detlef might be the most underrated human being of all time.

Most underrated is Scottie. Best perimeter defender of a generation and maybe all time. People forget the monster numbers he put up in 94 when MJ was playing baseball and was 2nd in MVP voting. Also had the Bulls 1 game from the finals and would have had them there if not for THE WORST FOUL CALL OF ALL TIME BY HUGH HOLLINS!!!!! Sorry, still a little angry about that one.

Is it a big deal because a posse is typically armed and James thinks Jackson is insinuating that all young (or sort of young, they're not that young anymore) black men are armed?

Or is it a big deal because a posse is ordered into service by the sheriff and James thinks Jackson is saying James orders his guys around and they work for him (they don't?)?

Or.... what? Is there a difference using posse vs entourage in the manner in which Jackson used it? Would they prefer entourage, which definitely more means a group that exists only because one of the people is famous/wealthy vs posse?

Do we even think that James and Jackson think along the same lines for the definition of the word?
