Yep. There are still some ppl complaining about the bubble or the jerseys. Some idiots are never happy.

The idea of the bubble sounded lame at first, but the playoffs perked up and are definitely the most fun since...the 90s imo.

And even if you somehow get the space, what’s your pitch to them? Why would they want to play with Frank over a super team? :lol:

This is the pace the Clippers should've been playing at, instead of that prevent defense nonsense that gave up big leads throughout the series.

I mostly was just upset when I found out the Knicks weren't invited. So most of my saltiness came from that. :lol:

But it's clear these players are giving it their all. And then we think about the Knicks and how far they are from competing.

Does Patrick Beverley actually defend, or does he just get away with being physical?

It's always a cool bonus to say you won a game on a defensive play, not a made shot. Bam won that game

Your FA rating will need to be better. So like I said, good luck. If you're still a tanking team by 2022, you have no shot. They will resign with me for less than what you're offering. And if you try to sign one of them, you just took yourself out the Emoni Bates race in 2023.
