I knew Donovan Mitchell was good but I didn't expect him to be what he has in the NBA thus early. Some of the best dunks I've seen came from him in college. Jazz seem to have a good core and could be really contenders in years to come.

Blazers are my NBA team and its not looking good for them right now. Down 2-0 to New Orleans and next two are in NOLA.

Bad News Gertner 04-18-2018 10:21 PM

I knew Mitchell was going to be one of the best rookies before the start of the year, but I had no idea he'd be carrying the team. Favors, Ingles, Gobert, Rubio and Mitchell play extremely well as a unit. Best defence in the league and they move the ball very well.

Bad News Gertner 04-18-2018 11:34 PM

Spida fucking Mitchell baby! Jazz in 6 all day!

Black Widow 04-20-2018 12:36 PM

I hate the NBA too many crybabies now!

Indiana wins 3 and 4. They're just the better team. I dont think Dipo will have 3 fouls in the first half again. If so, a federal investigation needs to be launched.

RP 04-20-2018 08:08 PM

Dipo line tonight will be 38/9/7/5

Ruien 04-20-2018 08:19 PM

Lol no. He may get 25.

Ruien 04-20-2018 09:20 PM

Indy lost again.

Ruien 04-20-2018 10:08 PM

Olipedo giving his best OKC performance right now.

Pacer 3-1 after tonight. Come at me.

:lol: crowd's been taunting Bucks' Eric Bledsoe the whole game and got Drew to show up as part of a gag.

did they mean the real bledsoe? eric isn't drew.

Rockets ain't shit! Jazz in 6!

Much better team without Hayward. Little bitch milking an injury so he doesn't have to play in any high pressure situations.

McLegend 05-03-2018 11:39 PM

Sit the fuck down Kevin Hart.

It’s the process, bro.

Oops. The term is processing system and picked the wrong one.

What? It's called the process.

I'm conflicted. As a Cavs fan, I'm obviously in the tank, and would love to see another banner hung.

But for the good of the sport of basketball, I seriously hope that both they and Golden State take a dive, and we get a Rockets/Celtics finals, wherein both teams somehow lose the finals and we have the first ever co-champions. It'll give folks something to talk about and give opportunity for everyone stop sucking off James and/or Curry for awhile.

Kind of crazy how drastically different things could have been had Ainge kept the #1 pick in the last draft. Cs originally prized Markelle Fultz as their choice but suddenly got cold feet right before the draft and did the deal knowing the Lakers were not nabbing Tatum. Still risked 76ers nabbing Tatum but instead 76ers stuck with nabbing Fultz at #1.

Ruien 05-24-2018 12:31 AM

How many points does he need to be #1 in points by a rookie?

Needs 40 to tie and 41 to break it.

Celtics vs Rockets finals would be a breath of fresh air

SlickyTrickyDamon 05-26-2018 12:18 AM

Game 7. The Rookies and Average Al have performed above and beyond. Let's go Celtics.

Evil Vito 05-27-2018 11:54 PM

I’ve never seen a team as inept at shooting 3’s as the Celtics have been in this game. What a joke.

Tom Guycott 05-28-2018 12:17 AM

And the mixed feelings continue. Go Cavs. :|

Cavs were not that much better for 3s but they could live with those misses since they had Lebron.

Cs just pushed their home luck way too much in these playoffs especially against Lebron and it came back to bite them tonight. Even worse is they gave him another accolade for experts to cream about for his career since he broke the Cs playoff streak when they go up 2-0 in a series.

xrodmuc316 05-28-2018 12:26 AM

LeBron wins game 7's. Boston is gonna be scary for a lot of years to come, but The King is The King for a reason.

Tom Guycott 05-28-2018 12:27 AM

Also, had an inkling to look at the history of the Finals matchups. Forgot Detroit was a decent enough team to win a championship a few years ago. I only ever think of the Detroit Bad Boys era when I think of them not being a scrub squad.

Emperor Smeat 05-28-2018 11:56 PM

Seems the Rockets wanted to one up the Cs with terrible 3 point shooting in a Game 7 during these playoffs. Rockets missed a ton more 3s in a row than the Cs did last night.

Evil Vito 05-29-2018 12:02 AM

lol this league is so fucking rigged

shits as predetermined as WWE

Tom Guycott 05-29-2018 12:19 AM

Predetermined?

You got an all-star team out West. You got a one-man show with bit players occasionally assed to step up in the East (deja-vu all over again). Everyone else is playing catch-up.

The number of disproportonate calls for star players doesn't excuse shit play. The wins and losses for most of the individual playoff games this year have been one-sided trouncings to the loser. A few bad whistles doesn't do that as much as one team taking a nap when they can't afford to.
