Agree. DAJ making 1st team a few years ago is all the proof I needed.

It needs to be 2 G, 2F, and 1 C/G/F.

Absolutely stupid the way it is now.

Has there been any word on Kawhi for tomorrow? Is he expected to play?

No official word but I would highly doubt he sits Game 3.

Really not a fan of Harden being on the list. He and the Rockets shit the beds against the Spurs.

1a. Kawhi
1b. Russ
1c. Lebron
4. Harden.

DGAF at this point, I just hope it's extra motivation for Lebron.

I think most of us would've guessed LBJ out of the top 3 but all of us know he should be the MVP

Well if he's out this game and game 4 it will be 12-0 GSW vs. 12-0 Cavs in the finals.

Warriors are so fucking lucky. I think the NBA should make them play without KD and Green, their two best players.

Weird part is that finals schedule is predetermined, so we will have like 9 days without basketball before it starts on June 1st

Might as well. Pachulia made this series unwatchable.

It's not difficult especially since its been going on this long. First heard about it 3-4 years ago. Don't think the stat should count if it was before his career started.

LeBron or Matt Barnes will continue the streak.

Then shorten the season (but that will never happen due to lost revenue)...

Philly about to take the #1 overall from Boston for the #3 and a future first rounder.

It'd be awesome if they drafted Lonzo.
