Figured we could get a little talk going. Should be fun in a week or two when we get a Houston v SA matchup most likely.

Also, this epic rant needed to be posted any and everywhere.

Spurs one of the least penalized teams in the league vs the Griz who are 27th.. Wtfrick he think would happen? And can he honestly try to say the Griz aren't known for being physical bruh?

Celts down 0-2. The east has been completely inferior to the west for what feels like 2 decades now. They hascally have Bron & nothing else.

Quick, over the last decade, who is the #2 team in the east besides whatever team Bron has been on.

Since Lebron went to Miami it's been Indiana which is laughable. George is legit but even at their peak his supporting cast was very meh. If the Celtics play their cards right they could still be very very good in a few years.

My point exactly. East is Bron and a bunch of shite. The last great east team was when Shaq was still worth a damn

Russ goes 100% hero ball in the fourth, Rox hit a few shots, and Rox take the 2-0 lead.

First ever 50 point triple double in a loss. I think a lot of guys could score 50 when they take 43 shots.

The KG-Allen-Pierce Celtics were most definitely great

Russ was still +11 to Harden's +2...

Also James Harden somehow got 20 free throw attempts on 17 shots, and RW got 18 FT's on 43. We all know westbrook isn't a driving physical matchup nightmare that requires fouling though.

29 of his 43 shots were outside 10 ft aka mid range or long jumpers, 14 were inside 10 ft

9 of Harden's 17 shots were inside 10 ft. Harden is also the best in the NBA at drawing fouls whether people like it or not. He is incredible at getting defenders off balance and taking advantage of it

The PnR hand-on-his-arm thing should be on the floor though IMO

He's certainly a better actor than player.

Great point. Forgot about them. That was when Rondo was kept in check too.

The only other team to win it all since MJ was the Pistons. The ultimate superstarless team.

Add in the fact OKC is switching bigs on him so he's able to drive past them and draw the foul from them or the help D.

As a Rockets fan, I hate to say this but I think Spurs in 5 or 6

I would assume we lose if you gave Pop the Nets' roster

Dont go that far. We have an elite offense. That's not just a fan sting that. The statistics back it up. When we're rolling we can beat anyone.
