Isn’t Westbrook going to be a free agent?

 

[Predator]

right about now I'd imagine quite a few Minny fans are thinking that the lottery might have been better

Playoffs are always better though… right HCP?

Kawhi should just retire. After all that load management, he can’t even play in the playoffs

 

[SIeepwalker]

I don't know shit about that story but she was part of a robbery ? Why ? No money from Kawhi ?

 

[Fairly-Hard]

These are the types of things that people deal with even Star Athletes, that makes me say none of us know shit.
Players are people too.

My guess is she was a head case that refused to change and Kawhi cut her off

 

[wizenheimer]

well...Norm Powell 14 point on 15 shots and another loss. He's worth a 1st round pick?

 

[blazerkor]

Damn. Oladipo's legs just won't hold up. That's a real bummer and I really hope it's not too bad but he has experience with catastrophic injuries and he didn't look like he thought it was OK at all.

doris burke quoting Omar Little has been my highlight of the playoffs so far

 

[Chris Craig]

Worst start possible for memphis. Brooks looking pretty foolish right now.

 

[illmatic99]

memphis is a paper tiger. shame we didn't want to try to win this year. west is wide open.

east looking shaky with injuries too.

 

[illmatic99]

lmao.

these kids talk way too much for their own good. you'd think they learned something from the flameout last year against GS. guess not.

I’d take the playoffs every season than not. Not sure why this is a stumbling block for you homie.

Bro I’m down here in LA….there is NOTHING like a playoff environment and vibe. Guess you have to experience it to understand,

 

[THE HCP]

I’m still baffled a #2 team is getting it handed to them by a #7.

For this board he is basically worth Schrodinger's draft pick, depending on the night.

Maybe it's because the number 7 team has one of the two greatest players ever to play the game, a guy that has been a perennial all nba big and a supporting cast gifted to them in a mid season trade with the Jazz and Wolves. You like to make that joke about the Blazers always playing teams without their best player but that's just a joke. It's a fucking fact that the Lakers pull off some trades that leave you scratching your head about what the teams they are trading with could possibly be thinking.

Nets lose at home to the 76'ers w/o Embiid. Yikes.
Cippers are a M*A*S*H* unit....again.
Gobert ruined the Wolves for years.
...and the Grizz are regular season hype that are Playoff trash.

 

[KingSpeed]

This will be single digits at the end of this quarter

Grizz are not playoff trash. They’ll win this series. They’re deep, experienced, and battle tested.

It was a good quote.

But she's still horrible.

I love Doris Burke personally.

But as a Blazer fan….. the Lakers suck right?

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Fuck Lebron and Fuck the L*kers.

That is all.

Sigh
