The difference is the new league. No truly dominant, post big men. The closest we've got from last year is Pau or Z-Bo. Imagine Draymond guarding Shaq. Imagine Iggy having to take Jordan, leaving Klay on Pippen. Then Rodman would obliterate Draymond on the glass and defensively.

Game changer.

This story keeps giving.

Gerritt Cole is really f***ing good this year. Jeff Samardzjia hasn't been. Shown flashes, but damn, might be able to get his ass at a discount lest he turns it around. TONIGHT. He must become the Punisher.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 17, 2015 -> 10:26 PM) I misfired on the Cavs pick, but some of you had to be thinking I was spot on when the Cavs took the lead and were in the ballgame at the half. Those who took GS in six were genuises. Nope. Not after watching both teams all year and in the playoffs.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jun 17, 2015 -> 10:19 PM) Wow had no idea Monroe was in line to get that money. I thought he was an idiot last year Stress on the Knicks part of that post.

Wait, why are we mad at Alexei right now?

Parent, challenge the f***ing play.

Damnit Adam.

TWO RUNS?! WHAT IS THIS MADNESS?

WHAT IS THIS? A RUN?

Wait what the f***?

RICK HAHN'S CELLPHONE Incoming call from Theo Epstein Theo: "Hey Rick, so, we want to talk Chris Sale. How's Almora and Vogelbach sound?" Hahn: "Theo, Almora and Russell could maybe get you Jose Quintana if I'm in a good mood." Theo: "Alright, what if I give you Vogelbach and Baez for Quintana? Kind of the same thing!" Hangs up You have one unopened voicemail "Hey Rick, must have lost you. This Windy City weather can be nuts, right? Ok. So what if I give you Almora, Russell, Vogelbach and Baez for Sale and Quintana?" You have two unopened voicemails "Hey Rick. Me again. What if I give you Edwards, Baez and Russell for Sale?" You have three unopened voicemails "Rick, man, the service where you're at must be terrible. Ok. Russell, Baez, Edwards and Schwarber for Sale? Great deal for you, hell you're winning this deal!" You have four unopened voicemails "Rick, it's me, Kenny. Don't trade with Theo. He keeps calling me pretending to be an insurance company before suddenly wanting to give me a huge SALE at a discounted price of Russell, Baez, Edwards and Schwarber." Rick Hahn listens to all voicemails Calling "Northside Asshat" "Ok Theo, you want to talk Sale, let's talk Sale. Bryant, Russell, Almora, Edwards and Schwarber. I'll even give you John Danks, it's supposed to be easy for pitchers to go AL to NL, right?" "Rick, that's just too much risk. What if Sale gets hurt and I'm stuck with his massive contract?" Hangs up You have one unopened voicemail "Screw you Rick. Jed was ready to give me Rizzo for Archer when he was with the Padres, why can't you be a normal GM and play along?"

My dream owner is Cuban. MLB won't let it happen.

http://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/06/lebron-jam...p;dlvrit=206567 Great read on LeBron's legacy. It's also interesting to think about how for so long LeBron was billed as a guy it would be easy to build a winner around. How he made his teammates so much better than Jordan did. Well, I guess it isn't anymore. LeBron is an enigma. He's best when he's dominating the ball and caring about others second. But his teams are best built for him to facilitate and involve others. The best teams to build around LeBron are ones that allow him to dominate the ball, but allow him to get others the ball. He needs to dominate and facilitate. The best team that I can think of for LeBron would have been the '10-'11 Bulls with him taking Rose's place. Noah and Boozer taking care of the boards, Deng handling tough defensive assignments and Brewer/Korver being out there for whatever is needed. Asik and Taj off the bench. Just forget Bogans.

Tom Haberstroh @tomhaberstroh Highest Pct of Team Points Finals History. 1993 Michael Jordan 38.4% 2015 LeBron James 38.3%

2-4 isn't really a big indictment of LeBron... ...except for the fact that he guaranteed eight rings. In Miami. The "Three Kings" party is what doomed LeBron if he didn't win. I'll give him the pass for 2007 for obvious reasons. Since then? Nope. Guaranteed eight.

A guy I know that's a Cavs fan liked to throw around 6-0 after the Cavs beat the Bulls, saying we could take solace in that. I feel like I should console him with knowing that LeBron has two rings.

Iggy's "God-fearing" has just kind of unsettled me. Just say Steph is religious...

Iggy for FMVP.
