NBA on ESPN @ESPNNBA 1m1 minute agoSteph Curry will become 1st player NBA history to face each of other 4 members of 1st-team All-NBA in same playoffs.
kinda cool

oh i guess maybe shumpert could check him
in any event kyrie feels kinda like the weak link in this series bcuz i don't see how they hide him on defense
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 28 May 2015 04:33 (eight years ago) link
theyve been relying on jr for a lot of offense too and oh boy he will get lit up

both jr and thompson are due for some major regression tbh

one thing that is interesting about GS's wings is that both iggy and barnes can work with their back to the basket in a pinch so you can't automatically stick a guard on them to neutralize their shooting
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 28 May 2015 04:37 (eight years ago) link
yep
― lag∞n, Thursday, 28 May 2015 04:38 (eight years ago) link
dubs ruthless abt exploiting that size mismatch too
Feel like shump can stay with STeph and they'll probably put Bron on him in tight situations
Did anybody else feel like Corey "Gumbo" Brewer did a good job pressuring Steph

Ezeli really impressed me this series; the last I remembered him (which, granted, was two seasons ago), he was a lumbering, uncoordinated giant, but he looks so much more comfortable now around the basket that all of JVG and MJax's talk about how he could start on a different (read: worse) NBA team didn't sound so implausible anymore.

I was hesitant, but I finally voted gsw in 6. The alternative was in 5, but my more conservative side won out. I can't see the Cavs taking the championship, under any circumstances short of the sky falling.

Such as the Splash Bros. getting concussed, and Iguodala's shoulder popping out?
― Madison Dumbbarfer (Leee), Thursday, 28 May 2015 17:19 (eight years ago) link

take the money!
I remember when Auburn made the national title game a couple years ago and some guy who bet on them at 300-1 at the low point of their season decided not to hedge :0
yeah you gotta hedge, gsw are not gonna only win one game and the cavs are not gonna win sorry :(

i haven't read that article so i dunno what his arguments are but i'm not sure what a 1-16 bracket would have changed. would it have prevented the clippers from choking? the hawks from bottoming out? the rockets from being less uninspiring?

why is everyone hating on the rockets, they were fun

Rockets have to be satisfied with their decisions this year, just unlucky with those injuries. Sucks that the pelicans made the playoffs and worsened that draft pick
― Matt Armstrong, Thursday, 28 May 2015 23:50 (eight years ago) link
i def like the rockets more than most, love the small ball lineup too. dwight had another really solid postseason too.
― Spottie, Thursday, 28 May 2015 23:51 (eight years ago) link
their good postseason games made me appreciate their style in a way i didn't before for sure, not that it was particularly different but idk it clicked. the bad ones were like...jesus christ

When he agreed last fall to a near-max contract extension, he wanted to sign it right away, even before his agent arrived, team officials recall. His dog, Rocco, was home alone, and Thompson wanted to go play with him. Team executives joke they could have pressed Thompson right then for a discount, because he wanted to see Rocco so badly.
Doggies!

from that nytimes piece on lol curry's mouth guard:
Commentators like to refer to Curry’s “gunslinger mentality.” By this they mean that Curry does not suffer from self-doubt. His team, the Golden State Warriors, is a single win from the N.B.A. championship, and it isn’t hyperbole to say that what happens next largely depends on him. Yet search Curry for even a trace of nervous tension and you will find … well, there is one thing. Curry chews his mouth guard.
uh i don't know he did seem pretty shaken up in games 1-3?
