    who knows what goes on in his head. he's definitely a talent, but you hate to hear about Iversonesque tendencies at the club and entourage. It will shorten his career.

    lol, i read sirron's comment first as "all beta" (of the cuckold variety), then "all betta" (the fish) before i read it as intended.

    Glad you brought that up ... There's a game in which we'll keep losing Kennard and he'll hit 7 or 8 threes

    Anticipated WMC post

    There’s a game where AD will go for 40 and win us one too. And one where Lebron can’t be stopped offensively and one where JJJ gets into foul trouble.

    The way we win the 4th game is if someone else steps up like Reaves, DS, DLO or Beasley. If one of them hits some 3’s it’s good night.

    I just don't want to see a Morant layup drill like Kris Dunn did the other day as he owned the paint.

    Yeah. People will talk about Towns and Gobert, but it seems to me the real story is Conley and Nickeil whoever shutting down Shai and Giddey. I wonder if we would have been better off for this year with Conley.

    I'm a big fan of Conley. He's an easy guy to root for. Very likable. I was on board with the Bogdanovich and Conley trade - would have tried to get Beasley too as the third instead of Gay.

    well having two bigs helps the guards play those guys, as the paint gets removed as an option.

    and yes, i wanted conley, too.

    Agree on all of the winners, maybe a game longer on some of the 4 & 5 win predictions.

    We have to take care of this series as fast as possible. The longer it lasts, the worse we'll look.
    5 games would be best.

    I have us winning in six as well. If they had both Aquaman and Clark available, I think they would beat us in six.
