2019 Offseason Thread

48, just making sure you aren't a millennial. Folks don't realize they are getting older. The oldest ones turn 40 next year

Oh I realize I'm getting older. I can feel it each time a storm front rolls in. I really need to get back to the Vegas area. The weather there treats me much better.

6. Chris Paul getting injured
7. Kyrie and Love getting injured
8. Durant shitting his pants

#6 probably accurate. Although the series was 2-1 Warriors with a healthy Iguodala before he got injured(coming off a blowout too), but we can pretend that didn't have an effect either.

#7 probably was the luckiest thing for the Cavs. Gave you guys grounds to be able to fire David Blatt in 2016 and replaced him with Ty Lue. Lue outcoached Kerr in that finals which got you your first championship.

#8 if the Warriors lost in 2015 and 2016, KD for sure comes to the Warriors in 2017 to put them over the top. He's probably viewed as the savior of the team and likely still with the Warriors right now. So it's actually more fortunate for the rest of the league.

A 5 year old Warriors fan has already seen more success then a generation of Cavs fans will.

Win count won’t be within 50.
He’s hoping for lightning in a bottle and 1 long playoff run.

I think the Celtics can win 60 this year. But I also think the Moon's made of 100% swiss cheese. So my Boston prediction's most likely wrong.

I meant people think millennials are college kids or 25 year olds. The youngest ones are already 23

dunno if you've ever tried Laughlin. It's smaller, but it's still fun...

and am i mistaken but werent the Rockets up in a series against the Warriors and then Paul got hurt and missed like the last 3 games in the series?

 

[Black Adam]

huh...

something wrong with Laughlin, Barticus...?

seems you obviously disagree...

Oh you meant the OKC beating the Warriors? Yeah not in that case. I was talking strictly finals. If the Warriors got to the finals again and lost again to the Cavs, he's still coming.

The Warriors were up 2-1 with Iguodala coming off a blowout win. Iguodala got injured and didn't play the rest of the series. So the Warriors best perimeter player got injured against a team who is strictly a perimeter oriented team.

Then the Rockets came back to go up 3-2, winning game 5. Chris Paul got injured in the last seconds of game 5, meaning he played it in full. He then missed games 6 and 7. So two games missed.

Have a good time. Are you staying on The Strip? I hated that place when I lived out there.

Also they lost game 4 and 5 by one possession each. They had some luck for sure but healthy Warriors beat the healthy Rockets that series in 5

Warriors somehow beat the Rockets this summer without KD and with Klay missing games too.

You think he's ever been to Laughlin?

I never have.

think you would like it. It's right by the Colorado River...

 

[tducey]

I remember that Warriors/Rockets series. Got to think if Paul doesn't get injured the Rockets win that series.
