    3OT tho.

    I went to check the box score and the dipshits at BSPN lump all of the points into one bracket that says "OT." It didn't say "3OT" and I looked at the points they scored in OT and was like "holy shit, Cavs deserved to lose, giving up 39 points in one OT. How was that possible?" Then I read the recap.

    More good news out of our division. 

    If they are smart, they ship him to the NFC, JuJu is very good, imo but this will hamper their offense significantly.

  • Dorsey has a history of rolling the dice on problem children. Not a fan of the player but hopefully he's changed his ways. Could see this being a prelude of Duke being out the door once Hunt comes off suspension.

    Is this the first season since LBJ joined the heat that he hasn’t played alongside an all star? 

    Probably right. Had Bosh & Wade then came to Kyrie and had K-Love last year.

    I disagree with every single sentence of this post. 

    Lebron gonna roll through the west with Rondo and Ingram? No. 

    And of course we had a chance at winning a title. But we didn’t. That’s why I said in hindsight. I’d much rather have Kyrie and another young star on the team right now then what we currently have. And in both situations we haven’t won a championship since ‘16. 

    I also agree but disagree with the "of course we had a chance a winning a title." Unless Steph, Durant & Klay all died before the opening game of the Finals, they had NO chance with that craptastic lineup the Cavs trotted out in the Finals. Nice to get there but I think everyone on the planet knew the Warriors were winning again.

    They will likely sneak in but wouldn't shock me if the Lakers didn't even make the playoffs.

  • RIP Frank Robinson. Remember watching him as a kid, when he became the Tribe's player/manager insert himself into a game and hit a HR.

  • Sorry to hear this, Justin. My older sister is a breast cancer survivor. Said if it comes back she won't go through the chemo again. My younger nephew (just turned 40) had melanoma, which they also caught at the right time. You'd think they could find a cure for this shit but cures don't make money

    In hindsight, the Cavs should have traded Lebron instead of Kyrie. It was, obviously, amazing to watch what LBJ did in the playoffs last year, but it was another loss to the warriors in the finals and then LBJ just left for nothing. Can you imagine the haul we could have received for LBJ and still have Kyrie for 2 more years? 

    Its an impossible move (trading the greatest player of all time in his prime) to make, but looking back if we’d have traded LBJ we’d be loaded this year and going forward. 

    That topic came up, a lot, on local sports talk and everyone thought it was blasphemy. In hindsight, it would've been the right move. He had no loyalty to the city, why be loyal to him? Thanks for the ring....see ya.

    I absolutely LOVE the theory that NO responded to James' "tampering" by stating he wanted to play with Davis (in quotes because it was more ESPN spinning an "I'd love to play with him" quote into a big story than anything else because they're fucks) and Davis requesting a trade to get LAL to openly say that everyone but James is on the table, so they could basically be "Nah, not that interested guys!"

    In one fell swoop, the Lakers look like clowns for being "almost EVERYONE can go!!!" publicly and all their young players are demoralized because they know GM LeBron would dump any or all of them in a heartbeat if he can get a shiny new toy in return because a serious (and aging) ring-chaser doesn't want to wait for young guys to develop when he can trade them out to create his latest "three main men; a bunch of role-players" masterpiece.

    This level of petty is even more entertaining that the usual "Durant being a bitch about something" or "Butler trying to sabotage his team" stuff!

    I'm not crying about him being gone. I'm probably the only one but I think this is the beginning of his body starting to age/break down. Now I don't think he's going to physically fall off a cliff but I think the injuries will be more nagging, going forward.

    ?? 

    He died in 2016.

    He got fooled. If you google "Dave Mirra dead" there is actually a story that popped up 14 hours ago making it look like it happened yesterday but he did die on 2/4/2016

    I'm with the "the game sucked" takes. I was at a party at a friend's place and noticed that at the beginning, I was into the game and as time went on, I was paying less and less attention and focusing more on shooting pool and throwing darts. Rams were so inept offensively that, if anything, it was a surprise that the game was so close. But still, it never really felt like the Rams were going to make any real noise, even when it was 3-3. Seemed like they were lucky to be in it and reality was going to assert itself at any moment.

    I still consider Brady the GOAT but last night, and the whole playoffs (versus Chargers & Chiefs) showed me why Belichick > Brady. Last night Brady didn't really have it but Belichick & his staffed game planned well enough to shut down the Rams offense. Even though Mahomes ended with good numbers, they managed him pretty well (held him to about a 50% completion %) and they basically punked the Chargers (offense played well there).

    Brady still puts up decent numbers but he's becoming more of a game manager, imo.

    I don’t mind defensive games, I think they’re somewhat enjoyable. But last nights game was just terrible football. There was one snap the entire game in the red zone. The Rams had what? 10 straight possessions with a punt? I don’t mind defensive games, but I can’t stand terrible offense. And that’s what we watched. Blah

    I watched until halftime and it was a snoozefest, imo. Don't mind defensive games but not sure if the Rams defense was playing that well or that Brady looked that bad. He was clearly off....noticed that before Esiason even said it at halftime.
