Lockback posted:That's helped somewhat by a small sample size (if they won I doubt he would have repeated the performance) but yeah. That was one of the best scoring performances by a player in a series of all time. Yeah, Donovan Mitchell now has the highest total NP for a single playoff series with 71.48 The best and worst scoring from 1947-2019: code:

It appears he's been junky in the playoffs for many years now. Rolabi Wizenard posted:Which 2 guards from history would do as well or better than Kobe in his situation/career? Reginald Miller and Oscar Robertson. Senator Drinksalot posted:Kobe fandom is like a cult. They love him BECAUSE he was a giant prick and terrible teammate, I don't understand it. It's just like any other cult. Many are drawn to bravado and pompousness.

I am feeling good about my prediction that the Celtics will lose the ECF with a double digit lead in point differential.

Lockback posted:The fact is Lebron is generally a pretty well-adjusted, reasonable guy so that "INTERNAL FIRE, KILLER MENTALITY" thing just doesn't fit as well. I'd like to see LBJ vs. LBJ with a MJJ brain transplant and Shaq vs. Shaq with a MJJ brain transplant. Dutchy posted:you can't tell a Kobe diehard that he's worse than Shaq or Duncan. put him behind Pau, if only for two seasons, and they might literally kill you When dealing with a cult intervention/extraction one must tread carefully.

Mike Breen is one of the best PBP guys, pleasant voice and a good-but-not-overused hook (BANG) JVG is actually willing to talk xs-and-os on the broadcast, how defenses are playing different zones, and as a total nerd but one that's bad at being perceptive during games it's really enjoyable. His podcast-esque rants vary wildly in quality from being really entertaining to being incredibly boring and repetitive like every loving time there's a foul being reviewed he goes on the exact same rant Mark Jackson loving sucks

I'm surprised no one posted this article when it was fresh 4 months ago: https://www.cbssports.com/nba/news/...to-coronavirus/ It's really long, but covers all the details on expansion you could imagine. It looks like we are currently in the state where expansion is the most possible it has ever been and could be a way to inject money into the league and owners that has been lost due to virus, ratings and China, and they think they could get 2 billion worth of expansion fees which would tide them over until the next TV deal.

C'mooooooooon, Honolulu! Make it happen, real world. .....for real though, Seattle seems like a no-brainer for a ton of reasons people have stated many, many times. If they're looking for places with Arenas already built, then I think articles I have read about it are consistently undervaluing Montreal. I usually see it get lumped in with teams in smaller markets (which is wrong, it's enormous) or with cities that are dismissed for not having arenas (which is wrong, they do have one that's NBA ready) or for not having local interest (which is.... also wrong. There's been local billionaires drumming up interest in the last two to three years.) The only argument that makes sense against it is the "Players moving to Canada" or "The local language is French", which is ridiculous, because all of these articles seem to bring up Mexico City as a top destination, even though it has even worse logistics (since the league would have to structure around two non-US countries now), a worse potential language problem, being considerably more dangerous, and it also being like, a trillion miles away. Think of the travel problems that Minnesota has, and then multiply that. Nevertheless, the only reason I consider it more likely than Vancouver is that I'm not sure the league would want to put two expansion teams in the same division. As for Vegas, it's in an interesting position, where it could prove to be an excellent long-term investment, but the stated reason for expanding right now, the revenue loss from the Pandemic, is doubly true for the city----it's attractive as a destination largely because of tourism, either in the income it generates for locals, or in the "tourists might attend a game" sense. During this Pandemic, its greatest strength as a market is largely negated. They would have to ride it out for a while.

Veryslightlymad posted:C'mooooooooon, Honolulu! Make it happen, real world. Have the Raptors generated enough interest outside of Ontario to justify a team in a place like Montreal? Just feels like a losing prospect for a sport with a season that runs parallel to hockey to expand there. I suppose you could’ve said the same about Toronto but that’s such a cultural melting pot of an area that an alternative option might’ve been more viable. And even then they might’ve gone the way of the Grizzlies if it weren’t for Vinsanity.

Last time I was up there, besides Canadiens sweaters, I saw like 2-3 bills/patriots jerseys and like non stop Raptors/Celtics/Knicks. Mostly Raptors tho. It's a fantastic city with die hard fans and they deserve something after they got screwed out of the Expos.

it sucks Vancouver wasn't given more time because BC was/is a huge basketball hotbed even before the Raptors got good. I think Montreal could support a team pretty easily (both in terms of fans and major sponsorship $) but it doesn't seem as thirsty as the some of the American cities that get thrown around and they don't seem to really be pushing for it yet.

If Under Armour was still a thing that anyone but suburban white dads cared about maybe they'd sponsor something. I was being facetious anyway, I know they're not going to do that.

Yeah they pulled out of Vancouver way too early. I guess they didn't predict it becoming the new Hollywood because that's a market right there. Montreal is obviously behind a bunch of American cities but I just think it'd be cool to develop the Ontario market more.

Is there really that much appetite for basketball in Vancouver, even with the film industry and the tech expansion? I've lived here for four years and used to go out to bars to watch random games sometimes, and there never seemed to be that much interest. There doesn't appear to be much hooping going on at the community center in my neighborhood either. I do see a fair number of people rocking Raptors gear out walking around. It's possible I'm just not going to the right places to notice the basketball energy. To me it's obvious that Seattle would get a team first, that's a no-brainer, and I agree there's no way they'd expand there and Vancouver in the same wave. I think they'd argue that a Seattle team would draw in Vancouver fans anyway, kind of like the Seahawks do for NFL football. Otherwise Montreal seems like it would be really cool. I could see the language and culture being a draw, rather than a barrier, for Francophone players from all over. I'd bet that having a second Canadian team nearby would also help develop enthusiasm across eastern Canada more generally. But I guess it'll be Seattle and either KC or Las Vegas first.
