Don't salaries have to match? Would think David Lee would be involved because of his huge salary. Thompson and Lee for Love?

Yep. Filler would have to be thrown in to make it work... but looking at GS for salary, Lee or Bogut would likely have to be in it or Crawford and a few other small deals.
 
Bulls could offer a package including Taj Gibson, non-guaranteed contracts of Ronnie Brewer and Lou Amundson, picks 16 and 19 this year, rights to Nikola Mirotic, pick next year that could be swapped with the Cavs if the Cavs make the playoffs, and a protected future Kings pick.

That's pretty good.

But not better then Lin / Asik.

 
Does Todem have a special keyboard with an ellipsis key where the period key normally is? Does he say stuff that's worth reading? I basically just skip over it ever time because it looks like it's typed by a five year old and is a PITA to read. … …

Hasn't Lin-Asik for Deron Williams been finalized yet?!

If Bogut were in there, and GS had a Love/Lee frontcourt, they might give up 150 a game.

Yep. But good luck getting a rebound from them.

 
Must game for Indy if they have any hope to win this series, would love to see them come back with an equally strong performance in Game 2.

 
Pacers got a little lucky with the 3s they hit and all the 3s the Heat missed. Great energy though and I loved how much they drove the lane and were aggressive. Made the extra pass a lot too which was huge.

I think Reggie Jackson causes significant match up problems for the Spurs when Westbrook and Durant are on the court.

Heat in 5 is nonsensical homerism Todem. I LIKE IT! That would mean winning 2 of 3 in Indy and sweeping home court. I'll believe that when I see it. Pacers scare me, man. Hibbert is in the phone booth as we speak changing from his Eeyore gear into his Abdul Jabbar get up.

This comment is ridiculous - I know you don't want to jinx your team, but I'd be surprised if this series goes 6 and shocked if it goes 7.

BTW - Hibbert got out of the phone booth 3 months ago. He got in his Shawn Bradley gear and hasn't looked back since.

I can't wait to see the money line for game 2... I might wager my right hand. I'm looking for some props, like winning by 20 plus too.

Yeah pretty sure Miami will take their chances with how the game played out.

BTW I hate the Warriors for firing Jackson. Forgot how horrible he is.

No idea what that bit you quoted was about. The Pacers have been on a roller coaster long enough now that it's full on dysfunctional. But Hibbert's averaging 16/7/2, and playing league-best defense against shots at the rim again since gone fishin' time. Maybe there's reason to think he's still emotionally fragile enough to collapse yet again. Certainly wouldn't shock me. But Miami has nothing to challenge him with, and to say he hasn't come back from Shawnbradleyville in three months is just living with one's head in the sand.

Credit to you for noticing that the Pacers have been playing like the one seed again for a little while now. They're confounding, but I sure as hell wouldn't be looking past them, and anyone actually thinking of making bets about them needs a little keener observational skills than that guy showed.

Playing like a 1 seed again as of late? Does this include losing 4 home games to a sub 500 Atlanta team and a slightly above average Washington team? Being pushed to 7 against mediocrity in back to back series... If that is how we are defining a 1 seed, then yes, they are def in 1 seed form.

 
It really doesn't matter how Indy played against Atlanta and Washington. They're playing well now, they have home court, they provide matchup problems for Miami (especially when Hibbert plays well, which he is).

Miami has been successful against Indiana when getting Hibbert into foul trouble, or making him respect Bosh away from the basket, Miami wasn't successful at either. Bosh was the worst +/- for Miami (-16), while Hibbert was the best for the Pacers (+19). Spo doesn't like to make adjustments based on 1 game - let's see if his game plan includes a way for James to get more than 2 FT attempts.

 
Man, the Heat get blown out and this ace is a ghost town! Let's talk hoops!

Which loss is worse potentially? Ibaka or Parker?

I think Parker is a potential huge loss for the Spurs bu Ibaka missing kills the 3rd option offensively for the Thunder but more importantly, Ibaka creats a giant hole defensively for them.

Thoughts?

you seem like a nut, but I am enjoying this turnabout.

What is the Parker loss? He is going to play tonight. He may be limited, but no one is better than the Spurs at mixing and matching pieces, which will probably be easier without Ibaka.

Yea, everything im seeing has Parker playing tonight. If he was to miss the game I think it would be a huge loss. I don't think Ibaka is going to be that big of a loss against the Spurs, OKC would really miss Ibaka if they make it to the finals against the Heat or Pacers. With that being said however, I do think the Spurs win the series.

 
I'm far from a nut, I do think for myself, however.

I hope Parker plays and is close to full strength.

I also hope Ibaka can contribute as well.

These playoffs have been the best I can remember and I want to see all teams at full strength. I could see the Thunder sneaking out tonight's game as they play "wounded".

 
Well the 'punchers' have a chance now against the Heat. And while I fully expect the Heat to respond, what if the Pacers win game 2?

Will fantasycurse lose a hand he's planning to bet? :D

"The series doesnt begin until the road team wins a game." Nice win by Indy.

I would love okc to win the series, and they have been playing with a horseshoe up their collective backsides all postseason. But it will take Westbrook going bananas for the whole series to do it. Should be fun.

I couldn't even get through the first minute of it, and you needed more than 45 minutes?

I can see disagreeing with the content, but people believe all kinds of weird things. Explained it well enough to me.
