Around the NBA - April 2017

[KingSpeed]

My brother just told me "why do I never bet money on this game?" It's true. There are three certainties: death, taxes, and Raptors losing Game 1.

Antetokounmpo erased DeRozan! DeRozan is going to have nightmares of Maker's, and Antetokounmpo's footsteps behind him.

I don't know why, but I love when Canadian teams lose

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

TIL Beasley was on the Bucks..

 

[DUB]

I reckon Thon Maker's defence at the start of the 3rd turned that game.

Because of the Canadian's passive agressive, "smarter wiser" sibling complex they drop on us. And if anybody is going to object to this comment, Puuuhlease.

ZBo time!!!

I love watching Delly play. I love how he coaches his teammates while he's on the court. I think Delly will become Australia's greatest ever basketball coach, when he retires from playing.

I judt love watching the overbite.

Giannis is a monster.

His length is extremely disruptive on both ends - the Rudy Gobert of wings.

 

[H.C.]

ZBo time!!!

Time to watch LaSoft cry.

isaiah thomas sister died this morning in Washington state in a single car accident.

 

[KingSpeed]

Holy shit, Isaiah Thomas' sister died in a car accident

Horribl e.

I am probably late to the party on this but Lowry might be the best regular season player that is (seemingly) always shitty in the playoffs.

And no you didn't read that right if you think I said he is the best regular season player period.

 

[H.C.]

Memphis 26 Spurs 15.
Guess my Spurs in 7 wasn't such a horrible prediction.

 

[KingSpeed]

Marc owning his brother

 

[PDXFonz]

Ken Maeur is a clown for calling that T on Giannis.

Looks bad to me. I'm seeing Grizzlies in 5.

You aren't allowed to pick Memphis after going so hard on me a couple years ago about how they sucked and Marc was trash.

They did suck. They're good now. Are you NOvoodoo?

 

[KingSpeed]

Pau's dad looks just like him.

 

[H.C.]

sucked enough to go up on GSW 2-1 before injuries gave GSW that series.
Sucked enough to beat Portland 4-1.
I wish Portland sucked like Memphis.

Next time make predictions before hand and you might earn some respek.

By the way this isn't even right, you're just overreacting. Spurs in 5, not phased.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I wonder how much ZBO is gonna get paid this summer

 

[H.C.]

I don't think he leaves Memphis. So not much.

Warriors would've won that series even without the injuries.

Grizzlies suck enough to get swept THREE times by the Spurs.

Some guy on the Nuggets forum posted this:

Cavs 4 Pacers 2
Bucks 4 Raptors 2
Bulls 4 Celtics 3
Hawks 4 Wizards 3

Cavs 4 Bucks 3
Hawks 4 Bulls 2

Cavs 4 Hawks 0

Blazers 4 Warriors 0
Clippers 4 Jazz 0
Rockets 4 Thunder 0
Grizzlies 4 Spurs 2

Blazers 4 Clippers 2
Rockets 4 Grizzlies 0

Blazers 4 Rockets 2

Blazers 4 Cavs 0


I hate predictions though.

 

[KingSpeed]

The reason I don't like predictions is because I like being wrong. The playoffs are unpredictable. That's why it's fun.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

I believe that we would beat San Antonio in a 7 game series. Especially if Nurk is 100%
