Monte sucked when he coached :noclue: I don't get why everyone wants him

My mom's so sad they fired Luke...he sucked ass here...3 of the worst 10 seasons in our history were Luke's years..."but he was progressing" not fucking fast enough, next

the Lakers won 37 games and that isn't good enough. In the meantime the Bulls won 22 games and these guys in charge have lifetime gigs.

What Kerr said about Luke was fantastic. Here's a guy feeling tarnished and someone comes along and helps him alleviate those feelings.

Excited for Game 1 today! :rockon:
It's too bad that OG Anunoby will be out. On Thursday night he had to have emergancy surgery for acute appendicitis.

I think Toronto is better than the Bucks. I called Milwaukee to be a surprise powerhouse this year and I called Toronto overrated. Wrong on one. Smart's injury is a big blow to us; he is the center of the team that bridges the gap between the kids and the vets....not to mention the intangibles he brings. This year has been painful as a C fan. I don't trust Kyrie and the kids hate him. But, onward...the playoffs are here so we'll see what happened. Maybe they can over deliver again. I think we'll get past Indy and then we'll see the Bucks. I am more concerned with the dinos though.

All the apologists for Magic have yet to eat crow today. Walton getting fired blows up their theory that he left because he couldn't fire him. Weak move Magic. Rootin for Tye Lue. Funny, no one in LA will acknowledge that the Clips are the better organization.....better coach, better ownership, better front office, better team. :banana:

I haven't counted out Boston. They can go on a run.

Huh? Magic wanted to fire him...he stepped down before he did...Rob fired him...wtf are you missing?

Was it the lone reason he left? Nope...

Stephen A and Byroni, and others all said that Magic stepped down because he was be hamstrung by Jeannie on the Luke issue. He wanted to fire him, but was being blocked. The fact that Magic left, with full operational control leaves really only one reasonable reason; he was weak. He was out of his league, couldn't handle criticism, and didn't like being "Magic". I'd ask wtf you are missing but I just don't give a shit.

Crazy day from what I am reading. Hopefully the clips can take their giant down. Just got back from Baldy in time to see the game.

Kyle Lowry with zero points in 35 minutes is one of the worst performances ever when it comes to big games. They lose by 3...that's on him.

Yet he finished +11

The only one of the Raptor starters who finished in positive territory.

I don't know what the +/- stats mean, don't know what to say about that. I suppose it's Raptors tradition to lose game 1 of the playoffs, but not even getting 2 points is pathetic. Hopfully, Lowry snaps out of it ASAP, and if he doesn't,Nick Nurse should pull him out or have him come off the bench instead. Oh well, we'll see what tomorrow brings.

As for the other teams...Golden State performed well of course. Too bad about that KD incident.

Yay for the Celtics winning, Sr's gotta be pleased. Blake Griffin is out for the entire Bucks series, so no chance even getting one win...adios, Pistons!

New coach for creep's team -hope Luke Walton does well there. I really enjoyed watching th Kings this season.

I think that's all for my NBA weekend wrap-up. :lol:

Looking forward to the Nets vs 76ers game tonight!

It's the point differential when that particular player is on the court. So, in this case the dinos outscored them by 11 when KL was on the court. It's a good stat, but more meaningful in the course of a season rather than a single game.

Anyhoo, shocking losses so far in the first round, especially the Clips comeback at Oracle. Can't help but to love their determination and grit. Bucks looked insane...the C's have a really rough 2nd round shaping up. I really think Kyrie is looking towards the NY teams with Durantula. The Knicks in particular have the best % chance to pick 1st. They pull that off and it's Zion and those 2 monsters. :jasper: Zion is in line to follow the Magic/Bird, Jordon, Kobe, LeBron stations in NBA glory. He declared so the shoe endorsement race is on; he'll be a very wealthy kiddo in short order. He's a god

Yep clips looked great at times...I love that Harrell kid...had hoped the lakes would grab him for a while (def not gonna happen now) I knew he'd do fine once given the opportunity of D Jordan leaving...too many baller vets (c3p trade was def good for both teams) to allow being run and showed by gs...gs should have kept that pedal down
