logo branding copy is secretly some of the lamest shit of all time
"Using the colloquial LA will resonate in a profound way with a younger demographic. Not only does this rule differentiate and elevate the clippers from other Los Angeles sports franchises, it empowers the LAC design element with a verbal communication standard"

I live in this world and I do my honest to god best to be as blunt and straight forward as possible in our presentations. Fluff is the worst. Luckily I work for people that would laugh at me if I tried to pull some nonsense like that.

PS if Lebron had gone to the GSWs, they'd have been even more mortal locks for the finals, but he took the coward's way out instead.

my friend found 3.2:1 odds for the cavs title chances. i'm looking at where the lines are now and i don't really love any of them

bovada sez both them and golden state have 11/5 odds
― slothroprhymes, Friday, 17 April 2015 18:19 (nine years ago) link
I guess now's a good time to mention that back in July when I was hootin' and hollerin' about LeBron coming back, I happened to be in Vegas and I put a huge wager on the Cavs winning the NBA Finals at 25:1. I really hope they don't let me down.

I hate the way a lot of 538 articles contain stats and observations about those stats with no regard for immediate context. Never get a sense that these people are talking about something they've actually watched.

good luck, snrub

yeah i mean thats kinda the whole point of their approach xp bring yr own context lol
― lag∞n, Friday, 17 April 2015 18:50 (nine years ago) link
I would definitely hedge your bet at some point snrub, at least in the finals
― Matt Armstrong, Friday, 17 April 2015 19:14 (nine years ago) link
xpNah there's always context and the stats and observations are largely informed by what they choose to ignore/include.
Using single-season stats as a basis for these predictions when a lot of rosters change drastically half way through doesn't seem sensible to me.
The Nets may have been the worst team to make the playoffs looking at the season as a whole but that fact that they've recently improved with Lopez healthy and finished the season 13-6 isn't reflected in that.

idk brian windhorst says lebron is 24-3 in the first round over the past six seasons and that could spell bad news for the celtics

The Warriors are going to have a dogfight getting out of the west, but if they can get past the WCF, they should be able to knock off the east champion, be it the Hawks, Cavs or Bulls. I picked them to go the whole way, but realistically the Spurs are going to be tough to dethrone and it was hard to pick against them.
