I hate to do it but I got to give Lebron credit. Incredible end of game shot and OT for him. Ugh. I’m gonna go take a sit down shower.

Fun game

Lakers will probably take this series in 6

As for Memphis… pretty disappointing. Lot of talking from their team but ultimately it’ll be a 2 seed that goes home first round

[dang] it!
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Memphis is so young and pathetic. Can't even take advantage of a bad night from AD3. Can't wait for the Warriors to knock LeBron out again

He closed it out while Memphis couldn't do anything.

Warriors won't be bricking all these looks Memphis gets.

If Ja doesn’t try and jump over a Laker just one of those times down the stretch and actually gets a good look, this thing ends in regulation. Way too many questionable shots by Memphis.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

Yup. Curry, Klay, DiVincenzo, Wiggins, Poole...guys will shoot lights out all over. Draymond will be heckling them as well. I won't mind his heckling in that series.

Sideline reporter “dapping up” LeBron at the end of his interview. Have some pride in your job man

Miami Heat needs to win this series for Victor Oladipo. Guy with what seems to be a career-ending injury. Should use that to rally and make a run.

Run to take out the top team in the East.

Wish we drafted Bane instead of trading away that pick on a salary dump to get rid of useless Kanter   ::)

So we keep the pick, draft Bane and he develops into an All Star level wing.
Would Tatum, Brown and Bane co-exist and play together or would minutes and ego problems develop ?

We could have Bane and Clarke instead of Memphis.
Being truthful, that is a terrible job by Danny in the draft.
We have those two guys and make it work, we are a juggernaut and a young juggernaut at that.
I remember campaigning for Clarke before we passed on him ..... for who did we take instead ?
