Have been banned from the other thread by an apparently sensitive snowflake (ironically after dozens of pages of political discussion from others) so I'll stick my thoughts on the NBA Playoffs here from now on. We needed a new thread anyway. [Reply]

I just meant the "next big thing" that kids start to emulate and someone that changes the game like Curry did. He has a unique style all his own IMO. [Reply]
Doncic shitting on Pat Bev is so entertaining. Even funnier by the fact Pat Bev just meekly takes both the verbal abuse and abuse on the court. [Reply]

Pat Bev is a fake tough guy and an incredibly overrated defender, so none of it surprises me. [Reply]
Had Chris Paul been healthy and played a full game last night, the final score would have likely been very different.
The Lakers still don't look good at all to me. LeBron is still making shots and creating opportunities for others but he can't even drive or jump right now. If he can't do that, they really don't have much of a chance to advance very far (unless, I guess, if AD decides he's going to play hard in 75% of the games rather than 25% of the games). [Reply]

No, they don't look good, at all. A big part of that is the fact that LeBron and AD have missed so many games this season that there's just not much chemistry on the court.
I guess the question now is whether or not they can get it together in time to avoid elimination. If Chris Paul remains injured throughout the series, the Lakers have a much better chance of moving on to the next round but if he plays, all bets are off, IMO. [Reply]

They'll figure it out. They aren't going to lose to the ****ing Suns. No way.
Now I don't think they will win the title this year, I think AD and LeBron are just slowed down a little too much but I can't get myself to believe in the Suns. [Reply]

Lol. Yeah right... Lakers may get past Suns but they'll lose before the finals. They don't look good at all. Nuggets are no joke and neither are the Jazz. [Reply]

You seen how Bron has played so far? They are only the 7th seed because he and AD were injured for several months [Reply]
