Lakers vs Nuggets: 6:30PM

Suns vs Warriors: 9PM

Both on TNT

Fair and true. The GOAT returns tonight.

At least we'll get to watch him win the gold this summer and won't have to wait until the fall to witness greatness again.

Incredible. Even Scottie admits it went down. Has there ever been a more manufactured star than MJ in retrospect?

Here's an idea, maybe a mod can temporarily ban him from the thread for blatant trolling. At the very least, he shouldn't just be allowed to do it over and over and over. I've seen people get removed from threads for less.
