I'd trade Pau and LMA for a nightly taco giveaway.

$20 million a year

 

[Gigglepoo]

It makes a certain amount of sense. Paul George is the best player either team has played against for a full game in any series.

And to think of how many people said IT was the East's second-best player.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Can we talk about the greatest PF in the game .. LMA?

 

[friskykillface]

D'angelo
Ingram
George
Randle
Mozgawd

Swaggggyyyy x Lonzo off the bench

Lakers back?

 

[Servbot24]

And to think of how many people said IT was the East's second-best player.

Even if IT were, PG13 is probably the closest thing in the East to a LeBron challenger. He's obviously still really far away, but even being able to do something at least throws a hitch in the Cavs machine.

 

[FrenchMovieTheme]

So far, this has been the worst year of playoff basketball I can ever remember. Not only are the majority of the series clunkers, but even the close series were filled with blowouts

 

[Gigglepoo]

FYI: LMA is +12500 to win Finals MVP.

 

[GravityInsanity]

100% agree with this.

 

[PadWarrior]

Can't spell lmao without LMA

Lol!!!!

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

So Spurs without Parker and Kawhi are worse than Celtics without IT? I don't know if I believe that.

 

[Hyperactivity]

I hope Simmons stays spurs fans.

Actually, I hope he comes back home. Didn't like what he did to us

$20 million a year

Nope, for both it's $35 million

Nearly enough for cp3, or George hill plus others

 

[Gigglepoo]

So Spurs without Parker and Kawhi are worse than Celtics without IT? I don't know if I believe that.

Spurs without Parker and Leonard are better than the Celtics completely healthy.

 

[Vault Dweller 111]

Spurs without Parker and Leonard are better than the Celtics completely healthy.

Meh.

Cavs have been the more impressive team in the CF to me. All things considered.

 

[VeeP]

Yeah your team of 4 all stars, 2 MVPs, and DPOY is in a real pickle

definitely fuck the Spurs who are out their best player and Lee who was playing really well

Warriors don't have the GOAT 🐐 Zaza tho

 

[mjp2417]

Nope, for both it's $35 million

Are they both coming off the books this year?

 

[metalslimer]

The only legitimately fun series to watch was Grizz Spur.

 

[J2 Cool]

This is what everyone feared when Durant bailed, and some pundits screamed "No! Its awesome for the league".

...

 

[Mortemis]

Yep, that's the only series that I really enjoyed.

 

[eBay Huckster]

fun fact: the most likely semifinal outcome of a 16-team conference-less playoffs would be Cavs/Spurs and Warriors/Celtics

 

[MetalFearSolid]

oh snap LMA showing up.

 

[friskykillface]

Playoff Aldridge!

 

[Hyperactivity]

Are they both coming off the books this year?

Nope. Pau has a player option for one more year. LMA has one more season and then a player option for one more year.

It's the combination of both that hurts them in terms of making moves. They're gonna need to just develop for the most part.

 

[Gigglepoo]

Milwaukee would have beaten Boston in round 1.

 

[mjp2417]

Celtics-Wizards was great. Evenly matched teams, the Isaiah game, Kelly-on-Kelly violence, the Wall shot, the Olynyk game.

 

[Bread]

Lol k

 

[friskykillface]

Milwaukee would have beaten Boston in round 1.

Bucks would have given the Cavs an L
Delly 🐐

 

[eBay Huckster]

Milwaukee would have beaten Boston in round 1.

if Milwaukee couldn't beat Toronto there's no way they're getting past Boston

 

[Hyperactivity]

Someone told Aldridge he was facing the rockets. In Texas, 3 pt shooting team, rim runner center going off, etc. maybe it was close enough for him

 

[Gigglepoo]

if Milwaukee couldn't beat Toronto there's no way they're getting past Boston

Toronto would have beaten Boston, too.

 

[Draconian]

Celtics-Wizards was great. Evenly matched teams, the Isaiah game, Kelly-on-Kelly violence, the Wall shot, the Olynyk game.

Too many blowouts for me to say that was great.

 

[Hyperactivity]

Toronto would have beaten Boston, too.

Yup. Both teams are getting swept by the cavs, so no argument about Toronto's playoffs. DeRozan is just too terrible of a mismatch, along with players like ibaka and Tucker, for the Celtics

 

[notoriousKTR]

Mighty fine defence LMA...

 

[cr_blah_blah]

Danny Green is like no thanks, rebound

 

[MetalFearSolid]

Damn it Warriors. End this game already.

 

[Mory Dunz]

lol did Curry look away and miss?

 

[Tall4Life]

Warriors fans, what were you saying 5 minutes ago about the game definitely being over since they had a 9 point lead? give me a break lmao

Yeah, that was some Nick Young shit

You know what

Fuck this timeline.

Paul George is the best harden defender in the league

Fuck this timeline

 

[PadWarrior]

Is iggy hurt? McCaw in before him.

Grizz push the cavs to 7
Best Gasol wouldn't get bullied by Thompson
Mike Conley would match Kyrie
Tony Allen would bug LeBron
Old man Vince ready
Zbo easily bullies Love

Is iggy hurt? McCaw in before him.

They have 8 days off if they sweep, think Iggy will play like 5 minutes next game if it's 3-0
Gotta rest him

 

[VeeP]

Is iggy hurt? McCaw in before him.

He was hurt during game 1. He was mentioned probable for this game. Not sure if he was hurt again or he's just being rested.

 

[Mory Dunz]

Yeah, that was some Nick Young shit

heh, surprised the bench didn't react a little

 

[nogoodnamesleft]

Turns the ball over
Commits the shooting foul

This guy

 

[Champagne]

The talent disparity between these two teams rn is ridiculous

39 year old Manu is by far the best player on the Spurs tonight

God this league is so stupid

 

[Cooter]

McCaw continues to impress.

 

[MetalFearSolid]

KD and David West right now picking Spurs apart.

 

[BlazinSkatinAxel]

LMA = LMAO

LaMarcusAldridgeOff

 

[Champagne]

KD and David West right now picking Spurs apart.

Embarrassing it was ever even close
