You apparently, given you make every post about it.


I'd like the option to watch a fairly called basketball competition between the best basketball players in the world, which is why I post about how rigged it is.


Don't you worry that the NBA might track you down and kill you? I mean given you are obviously on to them aren't you worried they might try to take you out to silence you and stop you enlightening others who are just too stupid to see it others, or do you move around a lot and stay anonymous?

Ok ? ... it's still one game
Chris Paul played horrible the other night I doubt sun's fans turned on him over 1 bad game...

Tatum needs some Garnett's DNA in him. He turns into a boy when it's not going his way.




Din't it take something like 38 years for KG to get out of the first round?

Tatum was brutal. We win this game if he plays better

Given that most people aren't smart enough to figure it out or aren't paying attention, even though Stern killed an active investigation by leaking Donaghy's name to the Post, the chances enough people ever put it together to make a difference for their business model is pretty slim.

I just explained why they wouldn't need to ever "track me down and kill me"...There's no danger to their bottom line.

Din't it take something like 38 years for KG to get out of the first round?



..But he was a man from the beginning; he's got toughness and fighting spirit unlike the boy.

Gotta set the tone in game 4. As long as Boston takes a game in Milwaukee they're fine

Saw the last 16 minutes.
Celts had a chance at the end.
Too much to overcome from what I've read.
Have to play from ahead in game 4 to win it.
Buck definitely not as good as last season.
Celts win game 4 and 5, lose 6, and win 7.
The offseason has a new purpose - be stronger.

Book it.


On the flip side, you can say we won’t get many better chances to take back homecourt. Now there is immense pressure on us next game to not go down 3-1.


This series is showing me we're a year away.
Mediocre first half season, lights out after that.
Swept the Nets then nutsacked in game 1 vs the Bucks.
Crush it in game 2 then sad sacked another opportunity in game 3.
So ya of course we're gonna lay wood (win) in game 4. Bank it.
We're too inconsistent to be honest. Not mature enough as a team. Right now, even if we beat the Bucks, we'll fall short to a very deep and talented Heat team with HCA.

Stevens did a good job but still need 2 players
A shooter and a legit backup ball handler

White Pritchard being exposed despite a decent game by White

First off. Bucks and Celtics two best teams. Boston has to play with energy and pace. They didnt bring it in the turns q, and it cost them.

Refs smefs. Don’t let the refs take the fame away from you by needing the refs not to suck to win.
