Not a damn thing at the moment

You should make a giant selfie thread.

That would get oodles of downvotes. Including mine

If I think of something to do, I'll do it, but at the moment I'm just content to keep running my mouth

good win, wish they had taken game 1 instead of game 2 though. going to be tough to win 3 in a row. I think this thing likely goes to 7.

Likewise.

San Antonio is the better and deeper team, but LeBron is a transcendent player who can drag Miami along and into the game against SA and get just enough timely help to steal multiple games. Any other player, and I'd say it's unlikely that he'd be able to to perform like that the requisite four times to win the series, but in James' case, that's very probable.

San Antonio has to capitalize on those swing points: missed free throws (especially the 4 in a row from Tony and Tim) and untimely turnovers hurt us down the stretch. Also, Kawhi must find a way to stay out of foul trouble. Tall order for him to guard LeBron, but our play on both ends of the floor suffers when he's not in the game or when he's on the floor and tentative.

I don't know if either team will blow out the other this series. It's possible, but highly unlikely.

and when Kawhi is on the court, LeBron has to work so much harder on offense I think he gets tired out a little bit quicker (relatively speaking, no AC still works the best).

Yup, as long as Kawhi is aggressive on offense. His aggression flagged after the charge call in the 2nd half (which was close, as those calls always are). He still has to play on and force the calls to go his way down the stretch.

Dereck Fisher is off to the next. Wish we could've given him one more ring, but oh well. Thanks for all you've done.

It was on the OKC thunder meme's page. Nothing offical.

Everyone I knew saw it coming. I wish he would've started as an assistant coach. Don't want him going the same way as Jason Kidd.

If the Spurs win this series the word "overused" will not be nearly enough to describe my usage of this gif

In the same vein, there's a "#Parkering" one I saw on SpursTalk awhile ago. Lemme see if I can find the link:
