Payne's foot is next to Green's heart and Ibaka's knee in a safe in Presti's office.

I wish he'd waited until the trade to lock it up.

Also, is that a green heart surgery joke, or a joke about the way he plays? Because it works on both levels.

I love this Warriors drama. Goes to show what a tool Green is.

This is almost page 2 bill Simmons level stuff. Utah was the best.

They were great, and I love the last line of the Cavs:

Never underestimate the power of bungling incompetence to produce high draft picks that reward stupidity.

I remember how badly I (and others) hoped that Devin Booker might somehow fall to us at 14 two years ago. It almost happened, too. He would've been the perfect SG to complement Westbrook and Cupcake.
Said in a thread about which point guards would make OKC better if they replaced Westbrook:

Unless the Cavs turn up their defense, we could see somebody else coming out of the East this season.

I've been saying it all season. They aren't as good as their reputation this year. I think there's a better chance San Antonio knocks out the warriors than Cleveland, which is to say the warriors aren't losing.

The warriors apparently invented everything in basketball.
