2019 NBA Playoff Discussion

I think the Suns are now #2 on the all-time futility list behind the Minnesota Vikings and in front of the Texas Rangers. But who's counting...

jesus... we can't be #1 at ANYTHING!

 

[Yuma]

jesus... we can't be #1 at ANYTHING!

Give it time.

Well played

Gasol Bros each got a ring.

 

[Hoop Head]

Kawhi wouldn't commit to staying in Toronto tonight. I hope he stays.

It's BS how they put players on the spot like that. What can he say, really? It's a no win situation. THAT is tampering, IMO. They give reporters a pass but it's clearly worse than Doc Rivers saying something like "Kawhi looks like MJ out there" and he got hit with a 50k fine for it.

Stef crapped the bed tonight...

 

[Yuma]

Jeez. Marc Gasol's Wikepedia page already has him listed as NBA Champion!

I think they hoped to get Kawhi to say something in the thrill of the moment. We agree, the question shouldn't have been asked.

Steph got a good look

Oh yeah hey they had a chance to go up 2 with no Durant, Klay out the last 10 and Lowry and Van Vleet going bananas. I'll take that chance. Steph can make that shot.

Klay ACL toast

Steph was doubled and tripled all night. 7 assists, a ton of hockey assists. The last 10 minutes they were face guarding him.

If he hits that shot he's a hero. I'll take him any day of the week

 

[Russ Smith]

Klay ACL toast

I hope not but certainly possible.

 

[Yuma]

If I am one of the big Poker tournaments, I have that Toronto GM entered just for publicity.

 

[LoyaltyisaCurse]

It’s possible Warriors without KD and Klay for most or all of next season!

 

[Mainstreet]

The Wizards are going to try to steal away Masai Ujiri.

A buddy of mine was saying today there's some obscure NBA rule that allows you to sign an injured player, declare him injured and then use half the salary to sign someone else. You have to petition the league for it and they don't have to say yes. he was saying if Durant took his 31 million option and they did that, the Warriors would get 15.5 and could sign Boogie(if healthy) or someone else. now thinking it might end up applying to Klay not Durant. his thought was Durant could do it to help the Warriors then leave next year.

For what it's worth, they were going to be without Durant anyway.

But let's hope that tomorrow brings better news for Thompson.

 

[Russ Smith]

People online speculating Klay dislocated the knee and then it popped back in. If so, that would tend to make you think he tore something too.

The thought had crossed my mind that Sarver should make a call. Now I see $10 mil a year. Ugh, no chance!

 

[Phrazbit]

Klay ACL toast

Woooooow... I figured it was a sprain or his MCL, usually with the ACL it's the back of the knee that hurts.

Where did you hear that?

If true this massacre to the Warriors has really thrown the summers free agency through a loop.

 

[GatorAZ]

Skip Bayless twitter meltdown is entertaining.

 

[Yuma]

Jimmy Kimmel said cheapest seat available in Oracle tonight was $1,000. Average price was $5,800.

 

[Phrazbit]

Injuries or not, I don't think there was any way they were going to keep both of them.

But if they're both out next year it certainly throws a wrench in the team building plans of their pursuers.

 

[Mainstreet]

I'd be happy if the Suns spend the money on a free agent!

Ahahahaha, thanks for the heads up, that was a funny read. That guy is a clown. He makes Screamin' A Smith seem lucid.
