We are so lucky that our superstar had 2 freak injuries after the best regular season ever.... :noway: :noway: :noway:


lol how many games he missed?
Fact is that momentum in games is a real thing, while not tangible itself, you can tangibly see the effect it has when teams are on runs and how it can dramatically effect the outcome of games when you can generate any momentum.

Its easy to say sweep but Lillard and McCollum are worth one win at home.

It'll end in a sweep. One blowout, two very tight matches, and one that's close enough. When is Nurkic back (will he be back)?

He could hypothetically be back for the entire series if the Blazers are lucky, it depends on how fast he heals. I doubt the Blazers will tell everyone he is ready to play until just before his first game back.

I have Warriors in 5, Dame and McCollum will have one lights out game and catch Golden State coasting. Golden State won't be challenged too much in the wins though and it will be a typical mediocre 1v8 matchup.

I think it should be noted that Dame is from the Bay, and he'll be playing in front of friends and family which usually makes players play better. I'm not saying that's enough for the upset, but it's definitely going to be a factor (even though he usually plays bad in his hometown for some reason). I gotta say blazers in 7, but at worst I think we lose in 6.

Don't even worry bout it. Raps in 4 over Dubs you'll see :nod: Casey might even be able to ditch the huge friggin suit and get a tailored one.

Kerr will never live up to Luke Walton's legacy. Just quit now, coach.

Whenever Iggy clanks yet another free throw in practice, the rest of the guys clown him with "He got robbed!"

I love the personal contradiction here.
Melo and amare should thrive in this offense. If Jeremy Tyler and cole Aldridge looked that good in summer league then us knick fans have a lot to be excited about. Make room for all the bandwagoners when we take off

Golden State doesent coast. They aim to utterly destroy their opponents every single night.

Yup. You can count on large leads being blown 9 times out of 10.
