Before Toronto does anything, get rid of Drake. I'm sick of seeing his face everywhere thus actively avoid Raptor games.. ATL hosted a 2Chainz night which was awesome, and everyone got shirts.

hahahahaha

not my call although I will say Drake is not a bandwagon fan

Tracer · « **Reply #2432 on:** March 15, 2016, 09:52:53 PM »

This is getting embarassing for Toronto, 9 straight losses to Chicago! Drake was chirping in Snells ear too yestarday, what a punk organization, having your ghostwritten rapper frontman taking shots at the team that murders ya

It's a weak East, but still love Cleveland's chances

Silky Johnson · « **Reply #2433 on:** March 19, 2016, 07:59:52 PM »

Bummed on the lost to SA, but no Iggy, no Bogut was obviously too much to push through, all credit to SA though they played really well.

EARL***THE***PEARL · « **Reply #2434 on:** March 30, 2016, 05:02:39 AM »

Yeah because Bogut would've really neutralized Tim Duncan LMA David West and Kawhi Leonard...

You do realize how being undermanned affects a game right? Just like when the spurs sat Timmy out and the Warriors blew them out by 30 at Oracle in January.

It's regular season, settle down. Only team that held down home court is San Antonio, PERFECT to know GSW aren't unbeatable.

I haven't been watching the game but I thought this got bumped cause they lost. Glad I was wrong.

Philly's 10-70 record is much more impressive

Winning reg season is impressive, but 3 years of rebuilding amounting in 10 wins is just phenomenal.. That's tougher to do imo

Silky Johnson · « **Reply #2445 on:** April 13, 2016, 10:09:15 PM »

damn it's official 73 wins, amazing season! bring on the playoffs.

Tracer · « **Reply #2446 on:** April 13, 2016, 10:24:15 PM »

Yes, bring on the playoffs please God. All this Kobe and golden state dick riding is so annoying. The 82 game season is a sporting travesty, but owners won't have it any other way.

What a crazy night. On top of everything else Curry made over 400 3s this year. Nobody's ever made 300 in a season before.

Curry is also the only player in history with the green light to shoot anytime/ anywhere. Guys career highlights will look like a wnba player, strictly threes and layups.... I hate the direction the league is going it's so pathetic. You can't even touch a player without a whistle...how can you stop them?

3 point line is killing pro basketball, Cousins is the best centre in the NBA and noone even needs him. The only toughness you see if from Westbrook and demarcus, and they're totally useless in today's game

I know your thing is to sound like an ill informed dipshit but really just Threes and layups? What else is there to do offensively as a PG besides shooting mid range jumpers?

Let's not fucking forget that the Spurs just quietly went 67-15.

Sure, but don't do stupid dances when you hit a wide open 3.. Curry is a top douchebag and his highlights resemble that of a WNBA player, no dunks.... no blocks... no defense etc etc.

I'm ashamed of NBA teams for not targeting his ankles atleast once this season. Eliminate the threat, especially when he's shaking his ass infront of your bench. You see more grit and intensity in Champions League Soccer.

^What are you talking about? Curry lead the league in steals this season, I wouldn't question his defense. Plus his ability to shoot the long ball really opens up the floor for play making. You must have missed a lot of his amazing passes. It's amazing to see so many people belittle Golden State's accomplishment rather than sit back and watch some amazing basketball.

To be fair, steals are not really a good indicator of defensive effectiveness. But I wholeheartedly agree with the rest of your comment. People need to accept that GS really is this amazing and Steph has everything to do with it. Shooting 3's and layups does not equate to the WNBA. When watching Steph you can see skill and athleticism oozing from his play. Dude is amazing. And since when is next level accuracy a bad thing in basketball?

Going to the finals 1 time is hardly an accomplishment. Lebron takes every team he's on to the finals!

By this logic Steve Nash wasn't that great of a player.
