that time when everyone and their mother bashed DA for not getting Paul George...

How are you a star and don't get double figures in a play to stay playoff game? Ugly.

Hard to get many looks when Westbrook puts up 43 shots. That guy is a clown.

Thunder had a ton of chances in this, and was not rooting for them tbh, but that no call is one of the worst I have ever seen. Some fines incoming because the press quotes are gonna be gold. I could see the Thunder just not speaking to the media at all as well.

That's true to an extent. KD got a lot of shots, it's whether or not you're taking them. PG13 did get 16 (needs around 25 probably) but he shot like crap, you gotta get more than 5pts on 16 shots if RW is gonna give up looks. IMO, the entire game he looked as though he didn't care, it's as if he was done from go. I would never say PG isn't a very good player but again, IMO, it looked as if he gave up well before it was actually over.

Did Westbrook really shoot 43 shots or am I seeing stuff?

Carmelo Anthony postseason : 11,8 pts, 5,7 rbs, 0,3 assists, 37%/21%/73%... $28 million next season.

Presti is a Genius....I guess.

Sorry but Tatum not on Mitchell's level. Not even close.

Simmons and Mitchell are the best rookies. Tatum next tier down. Just being real.

Mitchell is scary good right now, but I'd be ointerested to see what Tatum could do if given the keys to the offence for a full season

Most overrated GM in the league. Yes, he can draft well, but that's about all he can do.

Me.
Maybe a pipe dream because of Rondo, and because Steph is overrated and I dislike Draymond.
But yeah, ME.

Very very very slim. Only because AD & playoff rondo are beasts.

Curry appears to be back (or at least will be back sooner than we anticipated), so no. If Curry plays Game 1, you're looking at Warriors in five.

Mitchell at 21 is better than Tatum at 19. We'll see in 5 years

But Mitchell is a stud
