Of course sans injury..... :dunce:

It's GS and the Cavs again, and I am sticking with my pre or early season prediction of rings all around for the Dubs. I'd say in 5.....maybe 6 :nod:

I don't really dispute the whole MVP race thing this year.....beard v westy....LeBron....blah, blah, blah....the criteria is so muddled and murky. I have never liked Harden much; his play is so herky-jerky/loosy-goosy....just SO fucking inelegant to watch; I see his genius, but fugly to the eye, at least to mine. But, wtf is this all about.....elimination game? Hard to respect the effort shown tonight.

On another note, the chosen co-coaches of the year seem odd. I'd Snyder, Fizdale, and yes Brad over D'Antoni and Spoelstra. Coaches vote on em so they see something I don't obviously. Miami made a strong push, but late with limited talent. Houston did what Houston has always done with this line up. :noclue:

With just seconds left, Wall forces 48 minutes more. Assassin. Great game. Great player.

SOOO many moving parts in this series. Time to just let Monday just play out, but beyond being fucking great to go to the E finals per se, it would be great strategically as well. To get another (at least four games) series to see what to do with our windfall of first rounders is yet another gift in this rebuild. :boobs:

Yeah, this whole notion that players are purposely placing their feet in the landing zone of opposing players to sprain their ankles is simply paranoid and insane. Thank you Kawhi and the Spurs for dismissing it out of hand and fuck you Morris for heaving Horford out of bounds in retaliation for your nutzo perceived slight.....and McCutchen (and the rest of the crew)for the no call.....btw.....the league has erased that fucker under the radar since the KO/KO issue.

I have a prior engagement tonight. I hate taping games and watching them trying to catch up with the rest of the world, but am seriously considering going device silent from 5-9 tonight until I can get home.

Congrats, SR! I'll be cheering your C's to beat Cleveland. I'm getting a little tired of LeBron James winning all the time. :lol:

#5 and #10. I will take it.

Figures the first time ever we move up to a top 3 we have to give it to the 76ers. Could have been 3 and 5.

Ya thought of that...bummer

The ghost of Steve Nash is over! Yessssssssssss

Boston should build an ainge monument in the city for trading ring chasing vets who were abandoning ship for first round picks...nets should be dissolved​ for "basketball reasons"

Soo stoked..can't believe we not only kept our pick but moved up, just like last year!

1 would have been sweet but now there is no second guessing who we pick...we grab whichever guard the Celtics don't...if we keep him

Plus we didn't go full tank like I wanted us to and it still worked out :rockon:

As long as the Nets have the worst record next year, they can drop off the face of the earth. :lolol:

I want Jackson or Fox, although Lonzo will bring a lot of excitement Jackson and Fox (who lit Lonzo up for 40 in the tournie) have WAY more upside

Please do not take Fox. I think the Kings will have a decent shot at #5 for him.

I hope the Lakers take Lonzo. It will give me a Laker to hate now that Kobe retired.

Fox is great. Lonzo is a solid pick and his dad has him hyped up but I want Fox or Jackson. D-Lo was stunted by having Byron as a rookie, last year with Luke especially in the second half he showed a lot

Totally want the Ball family in purple and gold.... :lolol:

Actually, I have immense respect for the kid(s) having to put up with that over bloated vulgar cunt alone with class and dignity in public.....but add to that the weight of the mother's illness..... :tiphat:
