Who has the guts? Mods can hold me to it.

Series is over. Go ahead and start digging up those threads about Jokic sucks that aged badly.

So if we lose the bet, what is the username that we have to have for next season?

Bets are really cringe but that is hilarious.

What if the bet taker has already changed his name before? You can only change your name once, right?

I can’t believe I’m saying this as the Nuggets have always been my second favorite team,
but I want the Wolves to win so badly.

But I have a feeling that Jokic and the supporting cast will all show up next game.
Hopefully for the sake of all of us, everyone shows up so that we can experience a work of art.

If you’re serious, I respect it.

I would bet on Denver if I needed to, but I think that the Wolves winning would raise more excitement for the league’s momentum.

If I had to bet, it’s Denver for sure, and not for referee reasons.

This type of bet is dumb. One person loses, but the winner gains nothing. It's like betting $100 but the loser burns the $100 bill instead of giving it to the winner.

Will you change your username? If that's the case, you can always make it Grind_City_Hustle... Not fair - doesn't move the needle.

Will someone else decide that? He can decide as ClipsFansSince1996 or Hossein Fatal. Again, not fair. This time, to you


I think everyone who takes this bet should have to make a Bobcats ode/Kwame Brown number one fan type. Make it interesting

I honestly believe the league is desperate to elevate Luka and he'll win it all this season because it'll be much harder to make it happen in the future. They need him to be one of the faces of the league and he needs a championship to validate that.


Yeah, because Luka always gets favored by the whistle during these playoffs....

It's kind of understandable though, the magnets in the rim do seem like ghosts.

I want Denver to win, simply because I think the Wolves are a hell of a matchup for the MAVS...so I hope you're right, although with all due respect, it seems stupid to me

I wouldn't trust any 76ers fans (no offense) because the guy who best represents the fanbase, Hussein Fatal, didn't keep his word and made a mockery of the entire fanbase. :-?
- Sixers are 5-2 without him even playing a minute in playoff games
- he averages 22ppg on 49% TS in 9 elimination games
- the ONLY MVP in NBA history not to make a conference finals
- 0-3 in game 7’s averaging 49% shooting and 5.3 turnovers

A Mavericks - Nuggets conference finals would be an all timer. That said, they need to get there first.

I asked Chatgpt to come up with something:

Yo, Hussein Fatal, always talkin' that trash,
But when it comes to bets, man, he never has the cash.
Claimin' he's the best, but he ducks every clash,
Opinions on the game, man, they’re straight-up rash.

Talkin' ‘bout basketball, but he don't know the rules,
Sayin' wild stuff, got us laughin' like fools.
Swearin' he's the king, but he's breakin' all the tools,
Got no game, no shame, man, who let him loose?

Hussein Fatal, yeah, he dodgin' every debt,
Actin' like a baller, but he ain't no threat.
Makin' all that noise, but he ain't no vet,
When it comes to payin' up, he just hits reset.

Step to the court, but he don’t bring the heat,
Sayin' he’s a champ, but he can’t compete.
With opinions so bad, man, he can’t even tweet,
Hussein Fatal, man, take a backseat.

So here’s the truth, no shade, just facts,
Hussein Fatal’s talk is just a bunch of acts.
Opinions so whack, they belong in the stacks,
Time to step it up, or face the lyrical attacks.
