ok city more like not actually that great tbh city

yeah that's why i never actually place a bet - odds for top 3 teams make it just about pointless, teams not in top 3 you know you are almost definitely throwing your money away. i could talk myself into thinking 'well if not the dubs or cavs then who' and deciding the clippers (or that the clips are maybe as likely as the spurs w/ better odds). i remember almost putting money on the thunder at 20-1 like shortly before the playoffs and then just kicking myself for not doing it when they were up 3-1 but hey guess at close as they came i would've lost that money anyway. basically this is why i never gamble on bball. when i can get the steelers at 12-1 and the cards at 15-1 (and the falcons at 65-1 - how dare they) to win the superbowl.

Presti went from GOAT to goat overnight

Remember Kevin Pritchard

Terrible city once russ leaves for SA next season

yeah a team coming out of nowhere to win a title is just too rare in the NBA

k3vin k., Monday, 4 July 2016 19:23 (seven years ago) link

warriors were at 20-1 two years ago

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:24 (seven years ago) link

Psyched abt pau but we're probably going to lose boris :(

6 god none the richer (m bison), Monday, 4 July 2016 19:26 (seven years ago) link

Going from a stout French dude to a slender Spanish dude is...idek

k3vin k., Monday, 4 July 2016 19:27 (seven years ago) link

lol makes a lot of sense actually but iirc they need to trade him

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:28 (seven years ago) link

russ to heat, knicks, or lakers next year i bet

balls, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:30 (seven years ago) link

Warriors should try to get miles plumlee

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:31 (seven years ago) link

celtics shd trade for russ today

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:31 (seven years ago) link

Oh wait plumlee has a QO somehow sry

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:32 (seven years ago) link

russ to cavs

nomar, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:37 (seven years ago) link

an extremely beautiful dream tbh

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:38 (seven years ago) link

Every gm should be trying to steal Russ right now, give up a few decent assets to lock him in before the feeding frenzy next year

gis for westbrook shark jump (agent hibachi), Monday, 4 July 2016 19:47 (seven years ago) link

celts really should try to steal russ while presti is in shock

balls, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:48 (seven years ago) link

I'm bummed kd didn't show enough Celtic pride but I'm excited about this gsw super death machine, four top-15 guys and a bunch of garbage/rooks, gonna be fun

gis for westbrook shark jump (agent hibachi), Monday, 4 July 2016 19:49 (seven years ago) link

its not going to be fun!

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:49 (seven years ago) link

it may be darkly fascinating tho

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:50 (seven years ago) link

like they have the pieces and okc could go all in w/ young team rebuilding w/ a shot at an 8 seed. might in a weird way be the smart move in dealing w/ the fanbase, like ripping off a band-aid, instead of having this happen two summers in a row and yr fans having no clue what happens next.

balls, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:50 (seven years ago) link

lol then sign ibaka next summer maybe

balls, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:51 (seven years ago) link

if okc can get russ to commit to resigning w the team theyre trading him to they cld prob get a sick haul and itd be smart, like im sure the celtics wld be fine w moving IT, nets picks ++

these things have a way of not coming together tho

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:53 (seven years ago) link

if they have to trade him on a well youll def have him for a year plan its prob not worth it

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:54 (seven years ago) link

tho maybe someones crazy enough to step up for the opportunity

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:54 (seven years ago) link

the magic just did a 'well we'll have him for a year at least' deal for ibaka

balls, Monday, 4 July 2016 19:56 (seven years ago) link

ya some of that prob had to do w giving up on dipo, also obvs a much smaller deal, just seems like youd have to give up so much for russ that youd want assurances

cut to youtube of russ furiously dunking on helpless children

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:04 (seven years ago) link

whether or not this years dubs are the best team ever or merely one of the best prob mostly comes down to how good the ring chasing vets they pick up are

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:13 (seven years ago) link

pretty sure durant chose the warriors just so lil b would lift his curse

brimstead, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:21 (seven years ago) link

durant's twitter today has been great

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Monday, 4 July 2016 20:21 (seven years ago) link

which ones are still available and would take a vet min?

nevermind it was a parody account dagnabbit

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Monday, 4 July 2016 20:25 (seven years ago) link

everyone RTing his old tweets has been good hes a good tweeter + he owned himself a bunch of times on there

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:28 (seven years ago) link

yeah someone was pointing out just how much he used the '_________ looking ass' rejoinder in 2009, dude's personality shines online.

balls, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:32 (seven years ago) link

i said face ass to some colorado teens the other day and they thought it was the best thing theyd ever heard

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:34 (seven years ago) link

yeah his old tweets are incredible

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Monday, 4 July 2016 20:34 (seven years ago) link

i was like u dont have face ass here

Adding Durant means that they don't have to put garbage on the floor much at all.

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:38 (seven years ago) link

Ezeli and Barnes suck.

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:39 (seven years ago) link

theyre thin as heck dont even have a starting center* but i suspect theyll be able to fill it out w ring hungry vets

lag∞n, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:41 (seven years ago) link

Adding Durant will necessitate smallball because iguodala deserves minutes

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:43 (seven years ago) link

They could trade iguodala for a center, that would be funny

Matt Armstrong, Monday, 4 July 2016 20:44 (seven years ago) link

until someone tells me otherwise we still have iggy and shaun

reggae mike love (polyphonic), Monday, 4 July 2016 20:44 (seven years ago) link

i hope the 7'6 guy makes the roster that would be a trip
