We can't cover games ABC does, so I'm working Game 1 of the Cleveland series then meeting up with the team for game 2. Gotta' pay them bills.

Wait so instead of having YOU PEOPLE showing endless replays of a play so Hurd can sound like he actually knows something about basketball.
I end up having to watch endless commercials?
Maybe I should go to the mountain this weekend instead of watch the game.
BTW do me a favor HCP. Tell Hurd to stop trying to invent new positions in basketball.
Lakers ran their offense through Shaq, he was never called a point-center. Nards isn't either.

 

[stampedehero]

Only twice?

How about twice a quarter? I can't stand that smug look about him.

Other people have referred to passing centers like Jokic as point centers before. Plumlee played point center in playoffs vs Clippers.

I'll be so mad if we get Hubie Brown on the mic... I don't wanna hear the name "Damon Lielard" for 2 hours

Just because they get the ball passed to them in a situation where they have options. Does not make them a point-center.
If it was the case why where other Centers in history who got assists, and had the offense ran through them never called a point-center?
I'll answer, because point-center is not a position in basketball.

Sunday's game will be called by Mike Breen, JVG, and Mark Jackson.

Mark fucking Jackson to call a GSW game?! Fuck.

 

[H.C.]

Mark fucking Jackson to call a GSW game?! Fuck.

I bet he spends at least 12 minutes in the first half talking about Har_en and Westbrick. Completely ignoring the game.

 

[Scalma]

Jeff van gundy or as I like to call him budget Larry David.

 

[PDXFonz]

We will at least have an idea of which refs we don't have after they release tomorrows assignments. Here is to hoping Tony Brothers and Scott Foster are working tomorrow.

 

[MickZagger]

Mark Jackson is nauseating.

That "hand down, man down" shit he says makes me want to slap him in his face. Or, "mama there goes that man".

He tries way too hard to be fresh, but he sucks.

Here is a fun video of the Warriors trying to guard Nurkic

Missing Isaiah Thomas!!

Last 3:39 of playoff basketball. Everyone looks exhausted. The air is out of the building. No one can score. Then Kyrie hits a 3 and the Warriors are done.

Now referring to yourself as just "some guy?" You should have more self-esteem than that!

 

[SIeepwalker]

I think the Blazers will become the first team to win 17 games in a postseason

No Reggie Miller!
