2015 NBA Thread: I felt a great disturbance in the trolls, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. (1 Viewer)

Durant and Westbrook not going out well after the choke job in game 6

 

[Long Ball Larry]

We were light years ahead on Varejao.

[The General]

At least the Thunder get to return to lovely OKC.

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

we're watching the game, too

 

[Short Corner]

20 for 20? is there a limit? 

The obvious solution d to have him not sure and let them get those looks uncontested. Real uncontested, not Tim uncontested. 

 

[identikit]

we're watching the game, too

LOL

 

[Capella]

The difference in ball movement between these two teams is hysterical. 

 

[timschochet]

Are you always this snotty? 

 

[Poke_4_Life]

As opposed to Oakland? F off. 

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

/Lacob

I can picture Lacob giving Barbosa the same speech Beane gave David Justice, "We don't need you to be the player you used to be; we just need you to be the player you are right now."

 

[NutterButter]

12 points in the 3rd for OKC.  Oof.

 

[The General]

As opposed to Oakland? F off. 

 

[Joe T]

Furley on fire right now

 

[Insein]

12 points in the 3rd for OKC.  Oof.

Pretty much the definition of ####ting the bed.

 

[CurlyNight]

I'm guessing with those ticky prices that majority of those fans don't live in Oakland..

 

[Dez]

OKC has fallen apart after leading by 13 points thanks to 12 points in 12 minutes in the 3rd.

OKC is going to become the first team since 2000 to lead game 7 by 13+ points and lose.

 

[Slapdash]

GS like playing against that dude whose entire Madden offense is chucking the hail mary

maddeningly effective if unrealistic except it's actually happening in real life

Unreal when they're on

 

[Good Posting Judge]

As opposed to Oakland? F off. 

The arena around the arena/stadium is still bad, but Oakland's starting to get nice/gentrify, however you want to see it, very quickly. The apt we had there 8 years ago is now renting for double what we paid.

Sorry, carry on.

 

[PlasmaDogPlasma]

JFC the Thunder have found a lot of ways to miss good shots

Great analysis. Have you met Tim?

 

[mr. furley]

E-40 is definitely the guy who paid 20k last minute for those seats isn't he

 

[sports_fan]

Wow I guess I should have watched the 3rd quarter

 

[timschochet]

Good play by Westbrook. Calming down a little?

 

[mr. furley]

Mo Speights is your friend's uncle that's a garbageman who shows up at the court wearing his work boots and jeans that can't really play but dominates the ball, gets his shots up and kind of gets to do whatever the hell he wants because everyone is afraid he's going to beat the #### out of the first person to foul him

 

[timschochet]

I don't know why the Thunder don't use Ibaka more on offense. It seems like GS has trouble defending in the paint, so take advantage. Why all the long shots? 

 

[fantasycurse42]

Because it is 2016, and Lebron and Durant are one of 6-7 players who would be deciding the series? I don't think there's any real intrinsic advantage or mind-control that Lebron has over Durant. My book says its a coinflip and that seems about right to me.

Sure, the series wouldn't be decided by only those two guys, but they'd prob have the biggest influence, maybe Kyrie/Westbrook/Love/Ibaka/Adams or someone else could come out and be the heroes, but I think the two best players on the court will yield the biggest influence.

My opinion is that Lebron does hold a psychological advantage over Durant, I think he's in his head. You and others are welcome to disagree with that, just my opinion.

 

[sports_fan]

Good question, Tim.

 

[Capella]

Because he's terrible?

####### Curry. 

 

[SayWhat?]

Curry.  Absurd.

Good comment, Tim.

Tim, I liked that shot too.

 

[Bruce Dickinson]

Draymont whining to the refs about not calling a foul is a bit precious.  They don't call it when you kick an opponent in the nuts, 23.  So suck it up when someone chest bumps you on a drive.

 

[Poke_4_Life]

Plenty of nice places in Oakland and downtown is great with Yoshi's jazz club and whatnot. My dad just sold his house in San Leandro for $840k to move down here to take care of his impending grandchildren.

Nothing compares to the depressing half-abandoned Indian reservation that is Oaklahoma, though.

Spoken like a true left coaster. Enjoy that Cali life. It's not for me.

i don't even live there and that hit a little too close to home

oh.

Tim: Klay Thompson just made a shot

Tim's wife: why do you keep saying that?

 

[msudaisy26]

When did KD start to suck?

Shortly after LeBron stole his soul. 

 

[timschochet]

Damn how does anybody defend that shot from Thompson? If he's on, forget it. 

I didn't see Cleveland beating either of these teams, but GS might win in 4 or 5.

You think Tim's wife doesn't wear earplugs 24/7?

Barnes playing solid minutes tonight

Nothing you can really do, Tim.
