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]

That being said the NBA doesn't do as good of a job marketing their stars as they once did. Damn near every star or group had cool nicknames, posters and apparel.
The Admiral, Sir Charles, Larry Legend, Hakeem The Dream, The Mailman, Clyde the Glyde, Air Jordan, The Diesel, The Truth, The Black Mamba, Mount Motombo Run TLC, The Bad Boys, etc.....
Except Ewing....no way to market that stiff.
You forgot about King James. Obvious mistake. [Reply]
Chris Paul back tonight - despite the Suns being underrated by most fans (including me), it seems like it may be Suns in 4 if Kawhi isn't back next game. [Reply]

At this point I'll be a bit surprised if they lose another game barring injury. They feel like the team of destiny this year. [Reply]

Kawhi isn't playing the rest of the playoffs. He sprained his ACL. [Reply]
