Did the Hawks try to get every ex-Laker they could sign? Bazemore Coward Calderone Ryan Kelly Who else?
The way Chris Paul manufactured foul calls in his favor is disgusting. Gobert did not foul him. and that play on Hayward too, Paul is a b****.
Caught the last quarter of the Jazz-Clippers game... I enjoyed hearing the collective angst and despair of the home crowd as they gave up big shots or failed on theirs. I would love to see their season end on Friday.
CP2. Gotta get to the 3rd round once in your career to get that 3. Clippers have had so much talent over the past 5 years. No excuse. CP2, as the leader, failed. Kobe got destroyed by the media for not getting far with Smush and Kwaaaaame Brown. CP2 shouldn't get a pass either.
to bad I didn't bet more on the Jazz to win this series, just did small $20 on Utah and Atl....would've bet on Chi too but Paris minority owner is the Cbag owners so they didn't take action on it.
Expect the Spurs to finish off the Grizzlies on Thursday night in Game 6. Rockets/Spurs should be a highly entertaining. Spurs need someone to consistently support Kawhi if they plan on advancing.
The Spurs need to get out early so I can shove it in the face of all Popovite friends and that whole rest nonsense.
Russell Westbrook's historic season came to an end in Houston last night. Goes out with 47 points, 11 boards, and 9 assists. Can't believe some people still criticize this guy and act like he hurts their team. Just look at how bad they're with him off the court. That team isn't any good without Westbrook. No other shot creators, no shooters, no depth, average coaching at best. The fact they made the playoffs and won 46 games is a miracle itself and a testament to how good Westbrook is. Really just shows also that Durant made the wise decision. It's no wonder those teams never won a ring. Those two never had the quality pieces around them to win.
And they are capped out for the next couple years because Adams, Kanter and Oladipo are making a combined 60 million dollars. I scratched my head with that Adams contract. It is looking brutal now.
out of those, you pick the adams deal? i actually think he's worth his salary. kanter and oladipo could be replaced by MLE types and the team wouldn't notice. i'll be very surprised if presti isn't fired. they did a good job drafting, then managed assets TERRIBLY. think about what their roster was four years ago and what it is today. and this wasn't an aging-out or injury situation (like what happened to the lakers).
