It sickens me to see such a solemn holiday cheapened to sell - oh

The only untouchable in NBA history was Dalit Schrempf.

I think they used to call it First Take.

This truly is a mystery. And like any good mystery, the butler did it.

I’m a sucker for block catches. Especially by a smaller guy like Smart.

Weird. I must be a maniac or something.

Who is the editor that keeps approving this crap from Burneko?

Burneko’s become like the Anti-Simmons here, but somehow less objective where his team is concerned, “The only good moment was when my team prolonged the 2nd round by making a common low percentage shot, everything else is butt!”

I do agree with him though that it would be best for the Finals if the crippled Celtics…

Burneko is upset because the Celtics winning a game means he can’t whine that the Wizards would have at least lost in five while Boston got swept.

If you’re going to shit on an underdog’s 21-point comeback capped by a buzzer beater, then you’re actively trying not to enjoy these play-offs. I mean, I understand they’ve been mostly butt, but come on.

Oh come on, Albert. If the Celtics give the Cavs a good series that would be a good thing to watch. Isn’t that why we watch sports?

One week ago, Albert Burneko wrote in the comments: “You really can’t conceive of any reason to want your team to advance in the playoffs other than a clear likelihood that they’ll be the one team in the entire conference that gets to play in the Finals? It’s truly inconceivable to you that somebody might want to see…

Well yes, but this isn’t about watching basketball. Burneko is upset because the storylines on his favorite soap aren’t as interesting as they were last year.

As someone who spent a lot of time, um, watching actual basketball, I can say that this season hasn’t sucked. The basketball was really good this year! James Harden leaned hard both into his heeldom and defenders coming around screens, Russ was historically great, the Warriors were honestly even more a terrifying…

I’m exhausted with this lazy narrative about the playoffs this year.

Robbins casually going back to smoking his pipe with his NPR face is what slays me.

Celtics fan here. Took about 30 min for me to process that they actually won. During the 4th, my fiancé said, “Wow, if the Celtics manage to win you get 15 min of head.” High fives all around! See ya’ll back on this thread in 15.4 min.

Or else?

When you push your spouse off a cliff, do not keep possession of an area map with an X indicating the spot.

You sound kind of miserable, man. Perhaps a walk?
