Holm on her Buster Douglas shyt:blessed:


And damn, I fell asleep on the Warriors game last night.Them muthafukahs won again, huh?

Team is living such a charmed existence..Life's a crystal fukking stair.

I hope they come up against a healthy OKC & the Spurs in the playoffs.....Even the Clippers.I know dudes will say bu bu bu they beat the Rockets(fraud ass niccas) who beat the Clippers, but nah---it's all about match ups


All this hype, but low key, they haven't really been challenged by another powerhouse yet.


It's amazing how they made it out of the West without having to face one of the top 3 teams in the conference during the playoffs.

Now they're the greatest team ever assembled

I'm not hating, I just like my "greatness" to be tried & proven
Believe it or not Grizzlies were a top 4 team in the West last year behind SAS, OKC & GSW when healthy

As we know the NBA salary cap will increase somewhat dramatically over the next few years. Meanwhile European teams are still working with the same budgets. No doubt certain Euro teams are rich and some guys just prefer to play in Europe but due to the rising cap (as well as the relative success of guys like Nemanja Bjelica) i can certainly see NBA teams going out on a limb and taking a risk on more overseas players. 3 mil a year is a huge salary in Europe but is only a grain in the sand in the NBA today.
So with that said here are some of the best young players currently in Europe. I'm not saying all of these guys will play in the NBA or even deserve to but they are just some names to watch.

*Note: Patric Young (of Florida Gator fame) may have been the best prospect out in Europe right now and he was absolutely dominant early on in Euro League but he just tore his ACL a few days ago.

I listed the player's birthdate and for the player's that it applies I also added the NBA team that owns their draft rights
