Taurasi et all are so damn salty that someone who's never won anything is... single-handedly massively boosting the profile of their league, likely eventually resulting in huge financial benefits for everybody involved?

I was initially skeptical of the playin scheme. Seemed gimmicky and prolonged an already absurdly long season. But it's been pretty fun and gives the rest of the teams a needed break.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

I was hoping Bud would get the Nets job. Would have made for interesting games against the Nets and great postings on here.

The only thing I don't like is that Chicago and Atlanta are 7 and 10 games behind Miami and still get a shot at the playoffs. I don't think that's "fair" at all.

Calling it now. Lakers vs Warriors play-in for 8th seed. Last time we see Steph vs LeBron in the Playoffs. Finals Game 7 energy.

I tuned in and that was like 4 plays later. Saw more replays than I have game so far.

Lakers are as good as they were last year. A WCF quality team. They kinda screwed themselves not making top 6 though and having to play Denver likely round 1.

I just hate that a team could finish 20th (or worse because of the conference breakdowns) record in the league and make the playoffs. It devalues the regular season so much. I’d settle for 8/9 being a play in where 9 has to beat 8 twice. This whole 10 seed having a shot is too extreme.

The King's reverse-Mohawk is impressive.

Even when Shaq was the most dominant force in the league I hated watching players take charges instead of just playing defense.


I know some will say "it is playing defense" and they're 100% correct but I enjoy seeing players trying to block dunks rather than just standing there and sliding backwards.

Last two years these play in games have been the most exciting games of the playoffs.....although they aren't counted as playoff games, nor regular season games lol
