I'm back from my Bobcats hiatus & there's no way on God's green Earth I'm going to miss the game thread for the final game of the season. I'm happy that they were able to crack 20 wins like I expected & are finishing the season on a decent note

I probably won't be around for this one, but I'll be checking the box score on my phone, I know that much. I want to see McBob get the triple-double he's been working on for days now. :lol:

I think this game should be called the Desagana Diop Testimonial.

I truly believe this is his last game as an NBA player. (I doubt he actually plays, is he even active?)

So we should send our love to the great wall of flesh that is Desagana Diop.

It's still hard to believe that after dodging a bullet by him choosing Dallas, we decided to trade for him just months later.
Humble yourself.

Good riddance to garbage in human form, he should donate this years salary to charity. Made more money then all of us on this board combined yet only sat his fat ass on the pine all year.

I am pretty sure he does something very close to it anyway which makes him quite the opposite of garbage in human form. Unlike many realgm posters.

He seems like a decent human being, but that of course doesn't change the fact that he is a professional athlete who is regularly out of shape and doesn't care.

The last game is always depressing for me. No Football, No Basketball, Baseball is "ok".

Gotta find something to do in my spare time now.

We still have the playoffs but I agree that's its not the same as watching your team. I really can't stand baseball. Summer is the worst season.

I'm sadly not going to be able to watch this game live but I'll definitely read through this thread some time in the AMs tonight. I'd like us to get to 21 and not be the worst team in the league at the end of the season.

I feel like me and Sachmo will have a breakdown, if we don't get to see Gana for the last time in an NBA uniform tonight.

Going to pull the late night here in Londontown. Gotta see the last game of the season. One last hurrah until this board devolves into posters shouting Noel and McLemore at each other for several months.

Is Diop suiting up? I hope so - would love to see him in there for at least the last 5 mins. of the game or so.

Diop would have passed Shaq in every statistical category if it wasn't for David Stern's agenda of "basketball reasons."
