re: thread title





anyway, hello friends it's me







it's championship belt season and you either advance







or you go out to pasture







and get insanely butthurt







in which case there's only one solution







but no matter what, there's something we can all get excited about on Saturday...Kentucky Derby, Clippers & Spurs Game 7, and Mayweather Pacquiao






















Blake Griffin is currently only the third person in NBA playoff history to average 20pts, 13rbs, and 7asts over a postseason :captainpop:




p.s. the eastern conference doesn't matter

ArashMarkazi: Saturday's Game 7 between the Clippers and Spurs will be 5pm in L.A. on TNT and ESPN Radio. A pretty solid lead-in to Mayweather-Pacquiao.

"The superfluous, a very necessary thing"
Everyone scored in the CHI-MIL game. When was the last time 26 different players scored at least one field goal in a single playoff game?

Bucks didn't have a single player score double digits either.

He still has two years left on his contract. They'll probably get rid of him next offseason.

I really wish the Clippers were slightly more likeable. They dont have to become darlings or anything, it's just I'm annoyed that Doc Rivers is preventing me from enjoying them. CP3 is so loving good and I'm ready to happily ignore all his dirty plays. Blake is basically unstoppable and his mid-range game and touch around the basket is excellent. Deandre is a loving mountain. The guy has basically eliminated everyone minus the crafty Diaw from scoring in the paint and his dunks are sweet. YET, the rest of the team maybe minus JJ (lol) is so loving annoying and I've never seen a coach (outside of Dwayne Casey for other reasons) that I wanted to smack this hard in the face with a shovel.
I hate Doc so much.

Somebody posted that Doc Rivers is like a snapping turtle in a suit and I'm still laughing about it every time I see him run across the court to yap at the refs.

e: One member of the Clippers that's really likable is Steve Ballmer. I can almost forgive him for the continued existence of Microsoft.

He did jettison a bunch of salary in preparation for LeBron despite a bunch of us laughing at him. Kevin Love though was just a result of Cleveland continually falling rear end backwards into #1 picks

Not getting Kevin Love was clearly the right choice.

I don't know what the heck the Golden State dude did this year other than hire Kerr, but they also very desperately did not want to give it to Ferry. I guess they could have gone with the Cavs, but I don't know that LeBron feeling guilty is a front office strategy.

e: the midseason trade was good though

Dunno about the world in general, but Knicks fans all knew it was really great for the Cavs because Mozgov and JR were both very talented and poorly utilized in the systems we had them under?

also it's big news when the 93 point 29 rebound superstar is traded midseason for couch change

How does the Love injury shake out for the Bulls? Obviously it's a good thing for them, but does no stretch four mean Noah and his perimeter defense can get some rest in favor of a Mirotic/Gasoline lineup? I know nothing.

I think the voters don't want to give an executive award to Lebron until he retires from playing.

He doesn't switch teams every year. Getting LeBron on your team should probably win the award for a GM.
