I love watching Harden. He's like the anti-Lillard

Miami and Dallas Golden State or Memphis. Heat will win it all again and I think they play a surprise team from the west in the finals. If I had to pick only one from the a West I would say Dallas.

Would be nuts if 8 seed Dallas made it to the finals, can't really rule anything out at this point though.

Williams was not very good. If he was the same player he was at one point, he would be taking more than 11 shots a game, because he would still be Brooklyns best player. But he doesnt, because he isnt a top PG this year.
Williams sucks. No way to spin it.

Yeah, it's 100% going to be Miami from the east.

In the west, spurs are still favorites so barring an upset it'll be them vs the heat again.

They haven't looked very good versus Dallas, serious possibility they could get bounced although I still think they will come back and win in 7 games.

LeBron 5 assists in the 3rd as the Heat open a bit of a gap.

Obviously, they will make changes. But at this point, WHO do you get rid of and keep? They cant blow it all up, but a few pieces need to leave, but at this point, its unclear who those pieces should even be. This is just a joke.

Well, from what I gather from the Pacers insiders, Granger was a lot of the guys really good friends and Turner came in and kinda acted like he was a savior...

That, and Paul George knocking up a stripper who then essentially extorted him over it didnt help. Lots of the guys kind of thought he was in the wrong and were pissed when he didnt own up to his mistake right away and tried to buy her silence/abortion.

Hard to imagine athletes with a chance to win it all and very few of them give a fuck

I wouldn't be surprised if that's true about Granger and Turner. I would also wager that Stephenson is an asshole.

None of that explains Hibbert, though. He's been highly overrated for a long time, but to completely vanish is inexplicable.

Pacers are a prime example of how important chemistry in sports, it's not just all about talent.

Spurs are choking. 4 points in 6+ minutes so far in the 4th.

Is there a mandate that there had to be a tech since contact was made? I think it was pretty clear he was kicking in frustration, not kicking at Splitter's face.

Regardless he connected with his face. That was an easy call.
