rip the okc experiment.

How 'bout Russell yelling back at those fans? That first one was hilarious. Fan sat right back down.

Fuck that fan haha

We all knew Melo was garbage and needs to come off the bench, but where the fuck was George? 5 points during an elimination game!?

Hyped for the Jazz but it's also kind of sad to see a "talented" team lose to a rookie.

NBA should split the award to both Mitchell and Simmons.

Donovan Mitchell balled the fuck out that series, ROTY in my opinion

if there was ever a year that the raptors could beat lebron (and the cavs) this is it.

I got Raptors-Celtics in the East and Rockets-Warriors in the West.

what a shitty loss by the raps. just couldnt hang on

Silky Johnson · « **Reply #2915 on:** May 02, 2018, 02:59:35 PM »

Raptors had control the whole game too insane, still have them winning the series.
Stoked Steph is back and healthy, glad the medical and coaching staff didn't rush him back early, still not sleeping against the Pels AD is an absolute monster and it only takes one game to shift around the momentum of the series, also love the jawing between Draymond and Rondo these last two games.

noninjasinstreetfighter · « **Reply #2916 on:** May 02, 2018, 06:25:55 PM »

Rondo dripping his headsweat on the ball during Draymond's freethrows is great.

I used to root against LeBron, but now he’s basically one of the only people in the NBA I know anymore. So go Cavs?

I’m a life-long Bulls fan. The dream has been dead for 20 years.

There's always hope. The peak Rose years were fun and now we have some good young players. Keep yo mofuckin head up.

As a Bulls fan I hated Miami Heat era Lebron James. I don't care as much these days but I'll never root for him.

Rondo might be the only guy missing a triple double because he doesn't score in double digits

Glad the Pelicans won at least one game.

Silky Johnson · « **Reply #2921 on:** May 05, 2018, 08:24:06 PM »

Okay well I was completely wrong about the Raps Cavs series, LeBron completely took over these last few games and the raptors have failed to show up again, same shit different year.

Haha, yeah - he is playing like a madman right now. I remember Lebron getting criticized for not taking those final shots when he came to the league and now he has two game-winning buzzer beaters in these playoffs already (if I am not wrong).

Super bummed for the Raps though.

Same. I thought after the Cavaliers taking 7 games to beat the Pacers that this would finally be the year Toronto got past LeBron. The guy is just balling out. I’d love to see new teams in the Finals, and I really wanted to get behind Philly, but watching what Boston is doing without Kyrie and haven been doing without Hayward all season is wild.

Out West it seems inevitable that Houston or Golden State will make it to the Finals. OKC has been a bummer all season save the few flashes of potential they’ve shown, but I back Houston just for the sake of giving a different team a crack at taking it all home.

I'm glad I didn't bet on the Raptors-Cavs series. Not over yet but from the looks of it, can't rule out a sweep.

abraham linksys · « **Reply #2928 on:** May 08, 2018, 03:09:54 AM »

as a celtics fan I knew the 76ers wouldn't get swept but jesus the refs took over for about half of the game calling everything phillys way or maybe I'm just biased. I do love the trash talking in this series tho. embiid and Morris going back n forth was great.

I'm still shocked the Celtics are playing this well Keanu Reeves replacements style but next round if it's Boston(or philly) idk what will happen since lebron is on a warpath and it seems like the other cavaliers remember how to play basketball now. maybe he'll run out of gas but I doubt it

I feel bad for the raptors. they turn into ricky bobby after the crash whenever lebron is involved.
demar and lowry looked broken and lost at the post game presser. As long as lebron plays basketball in the east the raptors will be irrelevant.

sadly the pelicans are going to lose by 20 tonight
and the jazz will probably lose a closer game but I think Donovan Mitchell should win roty based on the simple fact that Ben Simmons can't shoot
and he also spent a season with the sixers almost like nba summer camp for a year straight.
(he will be terrorizing the east for the next 10+years tho)

speaking of rookies I also forgot Markelle Fultz existed until I saw him on the bench during the game. what a strange situation he got himself into.

lastly Houston vs. Golden State should be wild!

Beeda Weeda · « **Reply #2929 on:** May 08, 2018, 05:00:00 AM »

man, Lowery and derozen do not have the "it" factor to play in high stress situations.
Time to watch CFL

doomstation55 · « **Reply #2930 on:** May 08, 2018, 07:39:45 AM »

It's not like the Raptors looked good in the first round either. They aren't a very good team. All season long I heard about how good their bench is, but that really doesn't mean a whole lot in the playoffs.

Silky Johnson · « **Reply #2931 on:** May 08, 2018, 01:05:11 PM »

I'm gonna lose my mind having to watch a full series of Harden and Chris Paul flopping their way to the line every possession

Assuming some of you listen to The Bunt, there was a question from the "postoffice" a while back that was along the lines of, "if you could choose a starting 5 basketball lineup of current skateboarders, who would they be?"

I got a kick out of the question.

Sage and Biebel at the frontcourt.
Austin Kanfoush for the 3 and D.
Nik Stain (mason plumlee) at powerfoward.
Donta Hill at center

Silky Johnson · « **Reply #2934 on:** May 08, 2018, 10:20:42 PM »

My lineup
Ishod - PG
Jose Rojo - SG
BA- SF
Ben Schroeder PF
Ron Whaley - C

Going mostly on height and thinking they can probably hang in basketball and or hold it down for the team.

PG-TK
SG- Colin Fiske
SF-BA
PF- Arto
C- Auntwuan Dixon

PAWL · « **Reply #2936 on:** May 14, 2018, 09:44:19 AM »

yall are dumb

PG - Dennis Shroder
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYbome8YaII
SG - Zion Wright
SF - Busenitz for some reason
PF Ron Whaley
C Sean Payne

noninjasinstreetfighter · « **Reply #2937 on:** May 14, 2018, 06:20:51 PM »

haha I almost mentioned that Schroder doesn’t count.

west conference finals is stressing me out

Fongstarr. · « **Reply #2938 on:** May 14, 2018, 08:53:35 PM »

Warriors one step closer to a repeat. No way Cavs or Celtic can take them in the finals. If Warriors win Wednesday, I think they can sweep.

Silky Johnson · « **Reply #2939 on:** May 14, 2018, 09:46:57 PM »

It's insane how much Houston relys on the refs biting on their bullshit rip throughs/ flailing, KD went off great win
