Being given game 6 of the western conference finals for having a more marketable team.

SlickyTrickyDamon 04-14-2016 01:56 AM

Well its over the 95-96 Bulls meme is dead. Long live the new meme of the 15-16 Warriors.

Warriors won't make the finals so it'll mean nothing

Clerk 04-14-2016 06:30 AM

73-9? So what the Warriors are the only team that trys in the regular season. Let's see if they can beat a healthy cavs team in the finals cuz they barely beat them without 2 of their superstars

Ruien 04-14-2016 08:27 AM

Kobe scoring 60 is damn amazing. Even if the Jazz were not playing with playoff motivation.

Ruien 04-14-2016 08:28 AM

50 fucking shots. His body is going to be hurting tomorrow. But he has a long time to recover. Maan, I watched the first half and it just felt amazing. Wish I could have stayed up for the entire game.

Crimson 04-14-2016 02:47 PM

Wow you missed the ending. It was pretty amazing, it was vintage Kobe where he wouldn't pass just shoot, but the fact he kept making them to bring them back for the W was great. That along with the aftermath was something we very rarely see in sports. Not a Kobe or Laker fan but it was amazing

Bad News Gertner 04-14-2016 06:25 PM

I could score 20 points if I shot 50 fucking times.

Hope Kobe gets AIDS.

I could live with that. At least they'd have some actual playoff experience.

Ruien 04-14-2016 09:39 PM

Jazz should easily get in next year. Houston and Dallas will both get worse while the Jazz will keep improving.

Bad News Gertner 04-14-2016 09:53 PM

That's a looooong time away

Ruien 04-14-2016 11:08 PM

At least you are not a Bulls fan. I have like 4 years before they get anywhere with their rebuilding process.

Ruien 04-20-2016 09:28 PM

Hell ya. Tibs is the new Wolves coach. Can't wait to see this team play for the next 5 seasons.

Emperor Smeat 04-24-2016 09:55 PM

:D Cs game tonight was really good. Managed to tie the Hawks series after being down 0-2.

Crimson 04-24-2016 10:10 PM

Game 3 of the Celtics/Hawks was great too. Just casually tuned in the 4th quarter and became glued till the finish. I'll be watching the rest of that series fa show. Fun watching Thomas and Millsap

Ruien 04-24-2016 10:49 PM

Celtics are bound to become a top team again in the next 3 years. Brad Stevens is damn amazing and is only like 25 years old. Cs have their coach for the next 30 years.

Simple Fan 04-24-2016 10:55 PM

He does look 25 but he's 39. Good coach though and should be in Boston for a long time.

Emperor Smeat 04-28-2016 11:49 PM

:-\ Hawks took the series.

Cs had a few really bad stretches the past couple of games that ended up killing their chances.

Team was still entertaining to watch this season and another 1-2 good players away from being a possible legit contender.

Kinda feel sorry for Byron Scott, not like he had a bag full of top players to work with. Kobe shooting about 20% from the field isn't gonna be enough when the rest of your squad is almost completely bereft of big time experience.

McLegend 05-02-2016 11:29 PM

Good hire for The Lakers.

Bad decision for Luke Walton.

Droford 05-03-2016 11:33 PM

Holy fuck at Lowrys half court heave at the buzzer to tie the game in Toronto. Ridiculous

Ruien 05-03-2016 11:41 PM

And all I want to do is watch Golden State before I go to sleep. Wonderful

Droford 05-03-2016 11:46 PM

Then Toronto rolls over and plays dead in OT..way to go

ClockShot 05-05-2016 05:12 PM

Pacers & Frank Vogel part ways.

Emperor Smeat 05-07-2016 12:09 AM

Only quickly noticed it during the Thunder-Spurs game but ESPN stated this year's playoffs already has the most blow out wins and its only half-way done. Didn't notice if it was for all-time or just in recent years.

12 games so far while the previous holder was 11 games for the entire 2011 playoffs.

Ruien 05-08-2016 08:31 AM

I wish they would get rid of the first round of the playoffs. It's pretty pointless and just gets superstars hurt. See Cleveland last year and Golden State/Clippers this year.

Crimson 05-08-2016 10:48 AM

Lowering if to 3 games would be cool. But greedy owners just care about more more money, if it were up to them they'd have 13 game series

Emperor Smeat 05-10-2016 03:52 PM

Stephen Curry won the MVP award this season and also became the first ever to win it unanimously. Took all 131 first place votes with Kawhi Leonard in 2nd place and Lebron James in 3rd place.

ClockShot 05-10-2016 04:48 PM

That whole Golden State team should be the MVP. When was the last time there was a team that wasn't a "super team" that could jive like that and make history this season?

ClockShot 05-12-2016 05:13 PM

Scott Skiles resigns as Magic head coach after just 1 season.

Go ahead, Phil. Give him a call while you're at it.

Emperor Smeat 05-12-2016 06:47 PM

Apparently one of the biggest stories regarding Curry winning the MVP award is Lebron being salty because he got voted 3rd.

Praised Curry for winning but then took a few subtle pot shots at Curry, Leonard, and the voters for put them ahead of him in terms of their perceived "valuable" status. Basically implied Curry won because he's a better player than Lebron and not because he's actually more valuable for the team and/or league.

Ol Dirty Dastard 05-15-2016 09:23 PM

I want to like Lebron James because he's a charismatic, interesting dude. But he comes across as incredibly petty. Like who fucking cares.

Ruien 05-15-2016 09:59 PM

Exactly. You would think after so many years in the league everyone would be use to it. Kind of like Kobe's screw everyone even my teammates mentality but he hasn't reached that point yet. Bringing a title to Cleveland will help but I don't think that is happening this year.

Emperor Smeat 05-17-2016 12:46 AM

Another game in this playoffs with the refs botching calls near the end.

http://abload.de/img/untitled-16fk30.gif
That got called as a timeout instead of either as a foul against the Warriors or travel against the Thunder.

SlickyTrickyDamon 05-17-2016 09:25 PM

Fuckkkkkkkkk

SlickyTrickyDamon 05-17-2016 09:26 PM

Damn you Nets!

Ol Dirty Dastard 05-17-2016 09:55 PM

Raptors playing their best basketball of the playoffs, still losing by 2 in the first quarter. No threat from the 3= this is going to be a rough series lol

McLegend 05-17-2016 10:14 PM

Yeah bitches
