Pay attention to Frank Isola's twtitter. Thibs knows he's out and is/will feed him stuff.

You will be hearing the term 3 p-d players (Curry/Klay Thompson) over and over again if the Warriors win it all.

 

Shoot threes well, be a playmaker and defend exceptionally well.

I'm already tired of the Thibs stuff. Let me know when something happens.

The Hawks might be the worst team I've ever seen in the eastern conference finals.

Please god let the Warriors beat LeBron. Jesus.

A team with 4-all-stars? I'm sure you could find a team from the awful late 90's/early 2000's era worse than the Hawks.

If Kyrie's health doesn't improve, you shall get your wish.

Those guys are really bad all stars. Their two best players (Horford and Milsap) couldn't even make any of the all NBA teams over guys like Gasol and Duncan. It still seems insane to me that Kyle korver made the all star game also.

 

They're also playing so far under the screen when guarding Teague it amazes me that an NBA player can't hit a shot that wide open.

It's funny to me. Everybody hates "super-teams" yet a team like the Hawks, without a superstar, gets s***ted on as well. The Hawks are a good team. They have a system on offense and defense and the players to execute that system. I kept saying over and over again the Cavs before the two big trades aren't the same Cavs after the big trades. They went 34-9 to finish the reg season and LeBron and/or Kyrie missed some of those 9 losses. I still don't see any scenario in which the Cavs beat GS without a close to 100% Kyrie Irving. But they are/were that good.

They will. Easily.

 

Cleveland is playing out of their minds tonight but Atl never had a shot this series.

Thompson and Shumpert have been playing "out of their minds" long before tonight.

Everybody hates super-teams because it's cheap when superstars collude to team up. People s***ted on the Hawks because most people knew they were likely not going to succeed in the playoffs. I questioned what they would do in the playoffs earlier this season because they had no hall of famers. It just isn't common for a team like that to do well.

 

Golden state is a homegrown team that will likely win it all (and go down as one of the best in history to stat heads) that the majority of people like.

Who gets the Jerome James contract this year:

 

Shumpert, Tristan Thompson or Demare Carroll?

I'll second that.

Like that 8 seeded Knicks squad

Korver is done for the postseason with a bad ankle

I hate Dellavadova.

Scott Skiles is the frontrunner for the Magic job, and Jeff Van Gundy wants to coach the Pelicans

So much for the theory that Van Gundy was helping Thibs.

Obligatory Warriors post.

They just might be the best nba team (no hyperbole here, check the numbers) of the 21st century.

 

And much props to Steve Kerr for, despite playing in the 80's and 90's, recognizing that it's a MUCH different game/era and adapting to it. You got Phil/Fisher running the f***ing triangle in 2015. :lol:

You know, I'm not gonna disagree on that. This team is frightening on both ends.

Outside of the Shaq/Kobe Lakers, I can't think of any team post-2000 better than these Warriors.

I've probably been higher on this Warriors team than most but ya you can absolutely make an argument for them once they finish off Cleveland.
