Thought for sure Toronto had that. Go Spurs!
 
Tiebreakers are crazy. Yesterday, OKC went from 8th to 5th without playing. 4 way tie better than 3 way tie for OKC. Staying in 5th today with win.
 
I fucking hate Harden. And what is with the Spurs giving up second chance points?
 
I don't care how much you hate Harden as a player. 61 twice in one season is nuts.

One time, I scored 61 twice in one rec league season. Hear that Gronk? Oh... wait...

Damn!

Not when you realize that as a league theyve made guarding guys like Harden almost impossible, then you realize Hardens greatest strength as an offensive player is he will throw his body into you and itll be a foul on you. I mean I get it he’s a great scorer but I find watching him a total chore. Guys literally cannot guard him without having a foul called on them. You see guys all the time try to guard him without their arms because for some reason him flailing his body into their arms is a foul on them.

All that being the case, why aren't other players with similar skill sets accomplishing the same scoring feats?

Not as big of a ball hogs? Im not denying that Harden is very good at what he does. I think there are guys who could do it but play more team oriented basketball. To be fair to Harden its worked for them in terms of wins.
 
I don't like Harden's game all that much, but he's one of the most relentless offensive players I've seen. He never moves at a particularly fast pace, but he's locked in on every offensive play and seems immune to the lulls that affect all players.

BTW, I like how BNM disappears when OKC is playing well, comes back with an anti-Westbrook rant when they slip a few spots in the standings, and then has no comment about them upsetting Toronto.

Is it a problem that he cant stand OKC and Westbrick? I also dont like both and nothing makes me more happy to see them loose, except of course a Blazers win
 
8 straight trips to the Finals in the crappy East.

Comes West and will finish somewhere around 11th in the conference.

Legacy built on beating the sisters of the poor and teaming up with Wade/Bosh. Meh...

we have 3 games in the loss column over the 5 seed. as long as we don't blow games we're supposed to win, we should have HCA

Since the Blazers do not have the tie-breaker against most of the teams, they really only have a 2 game buffer.

It is a problem when someone with statistician/historian leanings (and skills) is overcome by emotion. BNM should stick to non-conference predictions, as he does much better there than with the likes of OKC, Denver, Utah, and Minnesota.

He did beat 73-9 Warriors in Finals though. Props for that.
