I don't know who to pull for between the GSW and SAS for the thought of LA playing for a
championship makes me sick but cheer for the GSW?

The Warrior gets another gift. Kawhi Leonard is injured. This playoff season is reminding me of 2015.

I don't mind if LMA wins it. GS can go suck an egg.

They are so lucky Zaza swept the leg on Kawhi. I swear he did it on purpose. He took 2 steps inside on his jumper knowing his ankle is messed up.

It is crazy how undisciplined they are playing, like a classroom of kids when there is a substitute.

At this point I'm rooting for Boston.

LOL these playoffs aren't even that different than the typical playoffs. Even though GS and CLe are demolishing everyone and will probably not lose a game before the finals. The end result is the same as it has always been. Lakers Spurs Heat the multi championship franchises since 2000 and single time champions in Boston Dallas Cle Warriors and Detroit.

8 teams over 16 years and if Boston didn't get a bit lucky via trade 7 teams in 16 years.

This is why I laugh when people complain that certain moves aren't 'championship moves' and that if they don't make you a 'contender' they aren't worth making.

Fans just need to enjoy the ride cause a championship is unlikely all the time.

Klay Thompson is the new Harrison barnes. You just can't have 3 top players. I said at the beginning of the year that his game would be affected by Durants shots.

He did well in the regular season because Curry took a step back but when KD went down Curry started playing like how he was use to so when KD came back he didn't stop playing great, Klay had to be the odd man out.

I still think the warriors are gonna have a tough time te next 2 seasons because of how much money they'll need to pay Curry and KD as-well as a washed up Iggy who can't last a whole year. not to mention their bench will be depleted and they'll need to sign minimum players like Zaza every year meaning no continuity for the bench.

Finally Klay is gonna get a Curry sized contract in 2 summers. I doubt they pay him, just like Barnes..

Man I can't believe people think Draymond is a top 10-15 player in the league. All that TV time I suppose.

He is the reasons why they went out and got Durant. When Curry and Klay are struggling he doesn't/can't step up. Iggy saved them 2 years ago and won the finals MVP because of it, couldn't last year..so they had to beg the for MVP to join up.

Good thing is outside of their top3 players their roster is diminishing rapidly. Like McCollum said on twitter I doubt they can pay or Klay would want to be the 3rd fiddle when he is a UFA.

This was probably the most boring playoffs of all time.

Glad to see this garbage playoffs finally come to an end. 10 days to the draft, which should be infinitely more interesting than any basketball we watched over the past month and a half.

JaVale McGee, Matt Barnes, and Zaza Pachulia are NBA champs.

now that's a mind-blowing development. And don't forget that David West finally got his ring

But they all contributed; Portland shouldn't be so opposed to signing veteran minimum deals

I don't think they should be either. Olshey really F'd up our bench by not committing to a vet group in the LMA era.

I'm looking at a possible team to trade Meyers to.
Minny is a team that made a big acquisition with Butler. That said they were near the bottom with 3 pointers. Now they are adding Butler coming in who shoots maybe 1 a game and subtracting Lavine who shot 2.5 a game. Minny could really use somebody who could shoot the 3 ball and possibly a stretch 4. Right now Dieng plays the 4 for them but can't shoot the 3. I hope we can get Minny on the phone and gauge interest.

Man, I knew Brogdon was gonna be good. But damn, last year's draft was so bad the ROY won it on 10 and 4...

Yeah, I really wanted him in that draft. We really could use a defensive ball-handler that can pair with either Lillard or McCollum. Maybe he has a low ceiling, but he fits that mold so well.

The main reason I wanted him was to replace Crabbe, since we all suspected he would be getting 12-15 million dollar contract offer...

Hayward should resign with Jazz. He's a fool if he doesn't.

I know that quite a few people here had locked in on Brogdon and wanted the Blazers to get into a position to draft him. Since he was a 36th pick, that would have seemed a do-able task.

But from what I saw this year (I saw the Bucks play about 6 or 7 times) I'd say Brogdon would have been the perfect fit as a 3rd guard. He could have replaced Crabbe's shooting from the outside while playing better defense, and he could have replaced Turner's duties running the offense. He shot .404 from three while averaging 5.8 assists/36 with a 2.76 assist/turnover ratio. That's extremely impressive for a rookie

the Buck have really drafted well over the last 4-5 years

8th seed represent.
