NBA Stories

We're back and talking about the unfortunate events taking place in Brooklyn, as well as seeing who has the most staying power early in the season. Also, the Lakers are awful lol how funny is that. 

Ben Simmons' spine is a myth, sort of like the boogie man or Sasquatch. It doesn't actually exist but your parents tell you it does so the world seems a little less cruel. 

First round was a Florida trailer park in July-type tweaking, especially that Grizz series.
