I hate the Spurs since they scratched Kyrie's eyes.

The San Antonio crowd booed Kawhi to death during the team introductions. Next, the Spurs are giving the crowd what apparently they wanted: a pummeling of Leonard's Raptors.

Go Spurs, go! It's one of the lamest chants, but I've come around to it being so corny that I'm okay with it now. "Now" being only whilst they bludgeon the Raps.

Grizzlies in the panic, trying to do something silly to stop the draft pick being nice for Boston.

Justin Holiday to Memphis for two second-round picks, MarShon Brooks and Wayne Selden

All Memphis did was throw away two future draft picks.

Even the refs trying their best to get the Raptors a win are not enough, right now.

Leonard choking at the free throw line.

Not impressed with crybaby Spurs staff behind the scenes. They try to get the crowd to not boo the guy who refused to play but took all the pay by putting on some silly video before the game and then introducing Green, for cheers, just before Leonard.

So many bad commentators in the same building. You would think the prison guy on TNT, "Jaylen Green" or that tough one where he called Irving by the name "Curry" for a quarter one game, would be the very worst but the Toronto commentators reach even worse levels of worse.

Poeltl revenge.

There is a reason why the Raptors are not put on TV. Bad ratings, unwatchable, ugly play, choking, and so much cheating.

Spurs winning helps the draft picks too.

Houston/Harden are so hard to watch. Painful, actually. I get a few iso’s In crunch time, particularly if you got a hot hand out there. But over and over and over again . . . . Unwatchable.

KD standing completely out of bounds and the ref completely ignores it. As of the Warriors really need Adam Silver's lackeys on their side to win. Pathetic by the NBA.

Ball don't lie on the Harden game winning three.

It was so nice to see Kawhi and Pop hugging it out. Then Kawhi laughed and angels lost their wings.

I don't even understand how that call is missed.

Marvel · Post #531 » by **Marvel** » Fri Jan 4, 2019 7:25 am

That missed call was the most blatant **** i have ever seen. KD was literally running out of bounds when he tapped the ball back inbounds. And then the no call on the game winning Harden 3.
Would actually be a tough rematch between Houston - GS in the playoffs.

And lol at Memphis.

All in on the Bucks winning as much as possible for that first seed. Would rather Giannis win MVP than Harden and would still prefer them in 2nd round than Toronto and we aren’t finishing higher than 4th realistically.

Hornets Desperate to Move Nic Batum, Will Include Frank Kaminsky In Trade

One of the funniest headlines I've read on the Wiretap. Holy ****. :lol:

Where is Hoops Malone at? I wonder if he still thinks Kaminsky is better than Booker? :lol:

Lol. Some of us called this would happen to the 76ers with Butler the second he was traded there while the rest of the forum panicked thinking he would put them over the top.

LMAO.

**** Philly

Post #539 » by **SmartWentCrazy** » Fri Jan 4, 2019 9:19 pm

Maybe Philly will blow it up and trade Simmons. If so, we should definitely get in on that, we could absolutely use a better back-up PG behind Kyrie.
