The Pistons openly have admitted after the fact to trying to hurt him (some of them).

Kind of apples to oranges here, but you already know that.

Continue on with the ball sucking of Lebron, though, by all means . . . . .

I’m not sure you want Kawhj as the golden example of a non-bitch player. Not a good choice there

He recycled the wisdom tooth story again? :-)

Phoenix and Orlando are the 2 teams I feel like we can just stick a fork in. Stranger turnarounds have happened but I would be surprised to see either of those series go beyond 5. And that pains me as an Orlando fan. They just don't have an offense to go with their pretty good defense.

Because his knees are completely shot these days?

The guy won 2 Finals MVPs due to his elite two-way game and had a case for the #2 player in basketball for at least a half decade there.

Haven't watched any of the Orlando series, but I was chalking that result up to inexperience so far.

Great game by Miami.

Lucky game. They are losing in 5. Making 23 threes when you arent a 3 point team is not sustainable.

I like Jaquez though. Makes tough buckets.

No, because he was the poster child for, "eeeehhhh.... I don't feeeeeeeeeeeel like playing tonight....."

He's the very symbol of load management in the NBA and the complete crock of shit that it is.

If that's not the definition of a bitch player, I don't know what is.

They ALWAYS seem to draft the right guy.

So who would you say was #1 during that time? KD? Or Curry?

Between 2016 and 2021? Neither of them, that’s for sure.

I think Denver just completely plunger-rapes LA tonight. Let's them really feel it for blowing that game 2. Puts their heads under water and holds it there until the bubbles stop.

Then they'll let them up just long enough to win game 4 - such is the nature of the gentlemen's sweep.

I still think it’s gonna be a real sweep. Jamal isn’t gonna shoot like that again and AD is due for one of his awful efforts.

Can you describe how plunger raping works?
