Richard Jefferson is saying he's never heard someone saying they'd carry an entire state, an entire team to victories at the most important times.

Clearly Jefferson is a complete moron and has never heard of Demar Derozan.

Mind blown


hard to believe this guy is only 31....he's been playing in the NBA for 13 years! Most guys are basically done at that point, this guy just keeps impressing, say what you want about him...whoever thought he was on the decline?


You figure he has 2 more titles in him. Where does that put his status with Jordan? 5 titles and probably 5 finals MVP's vs. MJ's 6 titles and 6 finlas MVP's. Figuring that the extra title that Jordan has was done with a HOF coach, HOF teammate and one of the best defenders and the best rebounder of all time then you will have a debate raging for decades. Yeah Jordan was 6 for 6 in the finals but that's offset by Lebron's streak of Finals appearances which will probably reach 8 or 9.

My cook had that dish all cooked up during game 6 of GSW vs OKC
I have just microwaved it, not sure how it is going to taste though, I have just added some Curry on it, in case!

Ray Allen 2.0! Big shot by Kyrie gets them the W... Such a good series. Curry was injured though and a lot of it has to be put on that one slip in Houston. Don't worry, Cavs will enjoy it this season, when Steph gets back and does his surgery and let's his knee heal they'll be back in 73-9 shape. Throughout the playoffs they haven't been the team we've watched all season long.

What's crazy to think about is if Green wasn't suspended game 5 this all could have been avoided. :lol:

That's for sure, at no point during this playoffs except maybe game 1 of this series did GS actually look like the dominant team they did all season.

I buy that the Warriors were hurt, but this isn't the first time they've been banged up during the season, and they had no problem winning games. The best team of all time is capable of winning one out of three games, and they failed to do so.

That was a weird ending, so many bricks. Nice to see Lebron get one like that, from a neutral standpoint.
"I definitely knew he traveled, but I didn't know they were going to call it. That was one of them situations in which a great player made a move...and they called the call. And I was like, 'Oh, man, there is a God.'
