They’re going to draft a point guard and IT will be going elsewhere, so... They are playing the long game

Dellavedova’s biggest claim to “dirty” fame was diving for a loose ball (that he actually recovered, because he dove and the other player didn’t). Y’all so easily allow media narratives to shape your worldview lol

The warriors will have more rest before the finals than the Cavs. So not really.

He didn’t come down on him, no, but he did slide underneath him as he was coming down, which can be subtle to an untrained eye, but pretty much any NBA analyst will acknowledge that it’s often an intentional and dangerous maneuver meant to disrupt a shooter [in this case, one who was already injured]

Well, if he traded for LeBron, he wouldn’t be able to beat him. Tough crowd.

Harden is a joke, yes, but also Dejounte Murray is going to be a pretty darn good NBA player.

The Wizards are very bad on the road. You don’t even need to go back further than this season to understand how this happened. It’ll be alright, Albert

You don’t have to be tough to play dirty. In fact, the opposite would seem to be more prevalent

Are we really looking at what Kyrie Irving is doing with his limbs? He’s clearly a Dookie who never really hung out with regular black people before, but is doing his best impression for his teammates...it’s not going well

I cherish your honesty.

The Celtics take control, or neither of these teams can win on the road? All this game proved was that the Celtics will have the advantage Game 7, which pretty much any amateur NBA sleuth could have gleaned before the series started

Discovering that Dwight has fallen off to this extent due to well concealed partying habits would somehow make me feel better about his career

Token fire, as made clear by the department’s ludicrous statement after the fact. Now we wait for the token police commissioner hire

No, it is not.

You’re trying to insinuate he isn’t smart because he doesn’t speak the King’s English in interviews? Give me a break. LeBron is a smart dude. And he doesn’t even speak poorly. You’re being weird.

That’s fine, I didn’t even watch this. I used the headline to yap about a thing that’s annoyed me as its progressed

Sure. But this isn’t the only example of what I’m referring to— in this game, even.

Durant is becoming increasingly hostile and catty as he ages, and it began well before he joined GS. People have wanted to love him and give him passes his entire NBA career, and he seems to be actively fighting his early “good kid” image for some unknown reason. Maybe he thinks the new edge will win him a title. It…

salacious? unfair? because he might have been assumed to be gay?

I’m not sure Houston has escaped that fate. They’re fun and all but unless they surprise me in the next round and push GSW to 7 games, they’re just another team who won a lot of regular season games. I don’t think Cleveland would be particularly challenged by the so called Uber talented tier 2 teams in the West,…
