Scale of 1-10, how confident are you Houston and Golden State win their series tonight? I'm going 9.5

Same.  More confident than you thought New Orleans would give GSW a series.  lol sorry, I had to.

1 closes it tonite, other extends 1 game.   

Then they fight for the chance to face Cavs in the finals.

I think clev can win it all.  Gsw, hou will have an epic battle and feel like that was the try finals and not take the Cavs seriously

"I respect him as a player, but he wasn't exactly the nicest guy." - Sixers guard T.J. McConnell says that he had a less than pleasant experience with hometown hero Ben Roethlisberger in 6th grade. T.J. was so mad he started rooting for the Bengals.

Least shocking thing ever, he's a POS.

Are you by chance related to Mason Rudolph or something?

So basically this McConnell makes bad decisions?

I think it’s funny that you defend the least likable NFL player (roeth) so much. You have to realize he’s an asshole POS, right? You can’t be that naive right?

(S) decisions....plural

Bad decision #1 rooting for Ben/Steelers

Bad decision #2 getting mad and going to root for Bengals 

Do you know that LeBron is also an asshole to people? 

Also, he has more game winners in the playoffs than Kobe and MJ combined. TAKE THAT BR!

Lol @ comparing lebron to roethlisberger. Lebron isn’t an angel, but he doesn’t rape girls in bathrooms, throw recently drafted 21 year olds under the bus, etc. 

He definitely treats people as if they are below him. Pro athletes are pricks.

You’re comparing apples to oranges. 

Also, im pretty sure most of us have been pretty open about how we think Lebron is pretty douchey. BR is included in that group. Steelers fans still can’t call a spade a spade with rapistberger.

Not all pro athletes are pricks at all

Yep. When that all went down there were flocks of people saying either trade him or release him (Roethlisberger), "he's scum", etc. Fast forward to after suspension and the hypocrites are holding up "Big Ben Godsend" murals like he's some kind of deity. Had it been one isolated incident with him I could be persuaded that it was a money grab but THREE times? I also have no trouble saying that Jim Brown is a POS and I'd have a hard time rooting for him.

I was just going to mention Jim brown. I don’t know a single browns fan who actually respects or likes that guy. He can GFH. But if he were a squeeler, their fans would adore him.

Yep, this exactly. Only a few franchises act like that, Steelers & Cowboys come to mind immediately.

Steelers:

James Harrison: Dometic Abuse to his GF. Steelers had NO issue resigning him after the incident. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/steelers/2014/09/23/steelers-foresee-no-issues-with-re-signing-admitted-woman-batterer-james-harrison/16112301/

Rasard Mendenhall: 9/11 truther/Islam extremist sympathiser.

Cowboys: Elliot & Greg Hardy come to mind immediately.

Don't forget the Bengals with Pacman and Burfict. Although Bengals fans (IMO) overwhelmingly hated Pacman and Burfict is probably half like/half dislike. At least they finally told Pacman to get lost.

But then some no name 7th round draft pick (Cedrick Wilson) gets accused of domestic violence, and the Rooney’s cut him and the country gushes over it.
