Mitchell & Gobert are legit stars. I'd rather have them on my team than Anthony & George. The Jazz should have been favoured to win the series too, they're the better team. I'd be more surprised if Oklahoma were to win,
Opinions are like ****. Everybody's got one.


Those weren't opinions, fella. I'm a Bulls fan, so I'm not biased either way. Paul George & especially Carmelo Anthony are living off of name value from like 5 /6 years ago lmfao. No GM in the League would choose either over Gobert/Mitchell. This series is showing why that's true. Also, the jazz have been one of the best teams in the League for like the past 40 games. Don't watch much basketball?

its good vs evil.

one is run by an egoistic man who can't really hear anyone else.

one is a team with humility, talk to media with respect, play TEAM ball.

Good has to win right?

I hate to say it but I don't think too many teams would take his contract at this point given his age and likelihood to decline in athleticism. Maybe an immediate contender might consider it.

So who do you want on your team? Joe Ingles or Bojan Bogdanovic?

Think about Ingles playing off Simmons at the next olympics.

Carnage.

No surprising to see Westbrook struggle against Utah.

This thread is going to erupt into lol Melo but I find it odd that whenever he can't hit a thing they give him the ball and when he's hot he goes 12 in game minutes without a shot. Dude was 6-8 with 14 halfway through the 3rd and just now got another shot. Meanwhile Westbrook has thrown at least 3 passes straight to Rubio and PG has been bricking. How hard is it to go with the hot hand?

Stop making excuses plus two all stars.. And Westbrook. Team is still struggling just face the fact. Durant carried Westbrook. Face the truth.. No shame admitting to truth.. Shame is the lies u tell yourself


George & Anthony are living off of name values from like 6 years back. Mitchell & Gobert are better than them.

The transformation of Ricky Rubio into a big time scorer is something that I never expected that. I've watched Rubio play for his NT a ton of times. I was never afraid that he'd take over with his scoring. And yet he has been doing that in this series. It's unreal.

Quinn is the best coach of the NBA alongside with Stevens.
