Jan. 5: Kyrie’s Back & Ain’t Nothing Wack ‘Bout That
Domas’ effort can’t stop Uncle Drew + Lance Stephenson lits the BKN + The Attack of the Red Mamba
Yessir! The Illuminati grabbed hold of the Association for the first time since last season’s playoffs as their head honcho in Kyrie Irving came back to grace a League hardwood. Baby Jesus gifted us the graceful event on a random Wednesday Night right before Epiphany. FULL CIRCLE OF FATE.
Kyrie played more minutes than expected by a good sizable chunk staying on the court for 32 rounds of the clock while taking 17 (SEVENTEEN!) shots on a single day after refusing to do so for the past calendar year. God bless Drew’s soul. Nice cook-out for Kyrie, K-K-K-Kyrie, who closed the game burning 22 chicken wings in the name of the lowly, tanking (maybe), Pacers.
Not happy with eating everything himself, Irving dished out four dimes to go with three boards and three steals, and he even got to swat a rock! What up Doc! Now, for the h*ters, just accept it: Kyrie is the Dribble Gawd and there’s nothing changing that. Full support to the KI from HeadFake HQ. WORD.
- Jokic with another triple-double, this one perhaps one of the most reasonably logical of his season as it took The Joker 37 minutes to get there. He normally needs something in the neighborhood of 20 minutes in those types of performances. Seriously.
- Somehow Sabonis Jr. dressed as Sabonis Sr. and rocked the Nets — almost, that is — with a solid 32–12–10 line. Damn, damn, damn. 14 shots on 17.4% accuracy? Me likes, but not entirely. You know what do we FULL-TIME endorse? Lance UBIQUITOUS Stephenson.
- The Red Mamba with the 25–11 dub-dub for the Rebuilding Hawks. Yikes.
- Tons of opinions about how good or bad was Houston’s decision of just suspending KPJr. for one game. Like, a fuckton of them. Like writing blogs and publishing them on the deep internet is free. Anyway, this is what Good Old Kevin did on his comeback outing. Ya’ll must’ve forgot.
- Danny Green with the second appearance for the CLUB TRILLION yesterday putting up a very tasty 0–0–0–0–0 in 24 minutes of playing time. That’s an INCREDIBLY PLEASING TO LOOK AT line. Didn’t even commit a turnover, or whatever the hell you wanted him to do. “Right now I’m just running around”. DAWG. Too good to be true, that’s why he actually ended shooting a couple of rocks (missing both shots) and committing a personal foul just to make up for all of the screwups. WE STAN 4 THE MAN.
- Felt the urge to check: there have been six CLUB TRILLION games (min. 15 MP) this season, two of them belonging to Dan the Man. Both of them starting. #thisguy
- Fraser got a private clip of Ja’s training routine. Take some notes, folks.
- The Lakers have actually attempted to trade Russ away. Can’t love that drop from Sam Amick enough, seriously. Made my day, my week, my month, my year. Legit.
- No Giannis, which nonetheless is NO EXCUSE for the Milly Buckos to drop one in such fashion to the Raps. Toronto with the fantastic THREE-MAN-ARMY of 20+ point-droppers to go with 19 more from Fredo VanVleet-O. Not bad.
- St*nker by Curry, which is something funny to say considering he still reached an unreachable line for most with a 14–9–5 and a block. That said, the 20.8% shooting on 24 hoisted shots was just UNACCEPTABLE AND BANNABLE.
- For the bad news of the day: Doncic got to celebrate Dirk’s jerseys retirement only for KARMA to come back hunting and force him out of the game with a rolled ankle. Can’t catch a break, this Luka.
- Shout out DeMarcus Cousins. He got waived by the Bucks just minutes after yesterday’s game — a ridiculous 15–10 dub-dub with three thefts and a block on top of that — but here’s hoping he can make it back an L roster soon. DMC STRONG.
