Warriors got mad.

The defense has been a let down the last week as well. Get that back on track and they'll be fine, no need to worry yet.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ May 18, 2016 -> 02:54 PM) Jimmy Butler is better than every player on the Sixers (including the #1 pick). Yes, I would still take the Bulls going-forward, the only thing that gives me pause in it is how little I think of Hoiberg as a coach. Bulls also have cap space. Not saying they'll do much with it, but put a quality coach on this team and find a good point guard and another solid player and yes, I think we'd be a pretty good team. Championship, no, but I don't see the Sixers being anywhere close to a championship either. It's not fair to say Jimmy is better than the number 1 pick because we have no clue what Simmons or Ingram is going to be. All I know is Jimmy is a great(not elite) player that can't be the number 1 guy on a championship team. The odds of Simmons or Ingram being that number 1 guy certainly aren't high but we don't know for sure that they aren't.

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 18, 2016 -> 02:20 PM) They are getting Ben Simmons though, who I believe is a superstar. So they'll have 1 more superstar than the Bulls currently have giving them a better chance going forward. Bulls are in basketball hell. Drafting Simmons definitely isn't a slam dunk. I'm with you for the most part as there aren't many teams I wouldn't trade places with as a Bulls fan but I'm not really sold on what the Sixers are doing either.

Lets just be the Warriors.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ May 18, 2016 -> 09:19 AM) Frustrating (non)call, but WTF is Albers about lately? Regressing to the mean. He'll be fine.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 18, 2016 -> 11:35 AM) Wait, what? The last time that the Sox had a real top 10 in all of baseball prospect was Jon Rauch. Most publications had Reed somewhere around the 20-25 range, he's heroworshipping the hell out of him.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 18, 2016 -> 12:30 AM) Nobody agreed about Desmond all off-season (Desmond now has an 803 OPS). Rollins has a 664 OPS with below average defense/range and Saladino's at 598. Fwiw, that's the rare second three homer game in a week, KC lost the game Cain hit them. The board was definitely all over the place on Desmond but fathom never waivered in wanting him on the Sox.

Literally every Chicago writer/beat reporter is saying that the base runner would have just went back to first. Reading the rule seems to indicate to me he would have been out, what am I missing here?

QUOTE (bmags @ May 17, 2016 -> 07:23 PM) Boring. God the Bulls suck. We can't even lottery correct.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 17, 2016 -> 11:53 AM) well, one poster doesnt support it because Jim Thome was traded for Aaron Rowand and Freddy Garcia was traded for Jeremy Reed. I do it too but I don't know why anyone still argues with Greensox as it's pointless. If you're over the age of 25 then you're worthless, the end.

QUOTE (Jose Abreu @ May 17, 2016 -> 05:54 PM) Isn't that what we used on Danks, though? That was already a sunk cost going into the season no matter what.

I don't think he's actually referring to anyone. He's just saying that he's ready to make a deal at anytime.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 16, 2016 -> 11:57 PM) Bet the farm on Okie City. OKC is so hot and so gelling it might not be a long series. If OKC steals Game Two, and it definitely could, this baby is going five maximum. I laugh at teams changing coaches. Scott Brooks had nothing to do with this vs. Billy Donovan. Adams and Kanter are physical presences and can grab rebounds. Collison and Ibaka were OK but these two guys are man mountains and make a big difference to go with a HEALTHY Durant and Westie. Amazing how those two guys being completely healthy with rebounders makes them unbeatable. OKC in five or six. Game two is not a lock for the Warriors. OKC is making a mockery of the regular season homecourt success of first the Spurs, now the Warriors. Funny how the NBA is thriving. First you've got the LeBron/Wade/Bosh show dominance. Then you get the teamwork of the Spurs. Then you get the emergency of Curry-mania and the Warriors. Now you've got the Durant/Westbrook show finally mature enough and healthy enough to win a title or two. AMAZING development is the Thunder. I'm not even trying to be an ass here but do you have something against the Warriors? You've made like 2 posts in the NBA threads in the last couple of years and both of them have been to say bet the farm or house on the team facing GS.

QUOTE (SoCalSox @ May 17, 2016 -> 03:47 PM) Assuming he means "under the weather" as in sick, right? Nope. He is the weather.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 17, 2016 -> 11:47 AM) LOL. Brian and Rowand would never allow this to become a thing We want realistic names here, not complete lies.

That 4th quarter actually kind of sucked but this is going to be a fun series. I'll still take the Warriors in 5 or 6 but I think every game is going to be close.

Dana could be rough with out Emma. Her character work is top notch but she's still green as s*** in the ring.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 16, 2016 -> 07:54 PM) Shining Stars might be the worst gimmick of all time. Do you not want to visit Puerto Rico?!

Needs back surgery, she's out for a while. Ugh.

We're just an offensive team now, no biggie.

QUOTE (Feeky Magee @ May 15, 2016 -> 02:51 PM) Must be the only one who noticed Duke has been largely excellent this year Yup. People have a strange memory with Duke.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 15, 2016 -> 10:05 AM) Lol. Pampered babies, yet you are too scared to order a sandwich behind a guy in a dress. This dude is telling people to toughen up when he had to leave a subway because of how someone dressed/looked. Fantastic.

Alright, lets go score Q some runs.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 14, 2016 -> 12:59 PM) Quintana is even underrated by sox fans. It's getting ridiculous. He's seriously one of the most underrated players in the history of sports and I'm not exaggerating.
