Cam at 8 and Hunter at 10. That’s an A+/A draft. Wow.

I’d flip the frick right out if Schlank manages to land both. Collins, Huerter, Trae, Hunter, Cam could elevate to legendary draft evaluator status. NO WAY we end up with both.

Congrats to the Raptors.

Masai's gambles paid off.

(I wonder what Dwayne and DeRozan are thinking tonight.)

Cyborg Leonard. Eeeeeekkkk! Bird how’d you like that? I have to admit I’ve been a fan of Kawhi for some time and even compared him to Pippen...the way he’s playing he’s Mike. :nod:

Well deserved all around. Masai takes gambles and they seem to pay off. I’m usually hating on anything that’s non Hawks but I gotta give it up. Watching Kyle Lowry all these year and seeing that smile on his face was pretty special. He’s been there the longest and he finally made it to the big stage.

Nice job and a big win for all of Canada!

If you don’t love that you don’t love NBA basketball!

Kawhi just wrestled the crown of best player in the east off Giannis' head. He's stepped up throughout the entire playoffs offensively, and successfully defended the opposing team's best player defensively, all while smiling maybe once (and that smile becoming a meme). Dude has that killer instinct for sure.

Not only the east. He is the best player in the league imo. West East North South..it’s Kawhi time.

I won't go as far to say that he's the best player in the league. While it's a popular trend now I don't believe it's the case.

Kawhi won't qualify for a Supermax contract now that the All NBA team results have been announced. He's obviously upset but he only played 60 games.

Kawhi’s the best player in the NBA. Has been, it’s not new, this series simply revealed that to all who base their opinions on ESPN highlights.

I thought he wouldn't be eligible anyway. Only players who had a rookie contract on said team is eligible.

Run this simulation in your head:

Kawhi vs Lebron
Kawhi vs KD
Kawhi vs (insert any MVP here)

Go ahead, do it. Leonard shuts them all down, and gets his. Best player in the NBA. Other “Superstars” whine, wince, complain, boast, claim the Earth is flat, whatnot. Kawhi over here with the alpha-wolf stare, alpha-wolfing.

Can folks stop talking about how tough the WC is? Just like SEC football is Bama and the 11 dwarves, the WC is GoldenSt and ..... them other dudes.


:lol: I haven’t watched a single minute of the western conference finals. I refuse to watch the scrubs and will never give them ratings.

BTW Benhill is a scrub fan first. I didn’t know I thought he was scrubs on the side until I found out his true identity. :nonono:

Lol,I’ve always been NBA first, Hawks second. The Core 3 IS the NBA. I know you secretly grab a six pack and go ham with them boys out in Oakland.
