Very interesting if the results hold.

Looks like Thomas is the media darling by a wide margin.

He's a damn good hoopster for a midget.

 

[LAD]

Sucks.

So, far it's just a sprain.

Still....Dude is brittle.

Yea that does suck. We saw the replay last night & seriously it looked like he did the same thing last post season. Crazy.

The bright side is he isn't a mental midget too??

Very true. You know who is a mental midget though? Tristan Thompson for getting involved w/ Khloe (spelling?) KardASSian.

As a Warrior fan I'm not mad...wonder how many of his team mates he could take along for the ride!

No doubt she beeps when she moves backwards.

Her rear end will only get bigger w/ age. Give it a few years & her backside will look a like a shuttle bus.

LOL

Well then I guess the good thing is she's obsessed with working out.

I can't wait, personally.

That probably won't last long. As soon as she can find another athlete to sucker into a relationship she'll be stuffing her face w/ any food she can get her hands on.

I can't wait, personally.

Just wait until she developes an end-table ass. The you'll be able to set a beer & a bowl of chips on it.

Kyrie Irving, who's running away with the fan vote, a distant 5th in the poll of media voters:

Globe straw poll: Isaiah Thomas leading media All-Star voting - The Boston Globe

media is only worth 25%, fans worth 50%, players worth 25%.....

no chance Isiah goes over Kyrie.

 

[WiggyRuss]

He's a damn good hoopster for a midget.

He's a damn good hoopster for a midget.

hes def. clutch.

Do you trust him at the end of a playoff game though...down 1, in the new Garden....Shumpert covering him.....

what happens?

I'm sure he thought it was broken.

Guess we should be grateful it's just a strain.

Still........

Paul has been filthy this year.

If they finish 5th, 1st round out...AGAIN.

No....It'll be virtually impossible.

But, goes to show that not everyone believes Kyrie is the top pg out East.

They have him like 5th....

Isn't that close to what @trojanfan12 and a few others ranked him?

What happens? Thomas drains a 3 in Shump's face.

There's no doubt Irving's a damn good NBAer. But he played @ dook so fuck him.

 

[WiggyRuss]

Yes and no. I do agree that Cavs/Warriors doesn't qualify as a rivalry...yet. Roster turnover really doesn't mean a whole lot. The main players are still there, the Warriors just added Durant.

However, there does appear to be enough "bad blood" developing between them that, as far as current relevant teams go, they are most likely to turn into a rivalry.

It ain't Lakers/Celtics and is very unlikely to reach that level, but it could develop into a decent "mini rivalry" if the teams can stay relevant for a few more years.

I am kinda 50/50 on it....the enmity is definitely there between the two teams- they definitely do not like eachother.

but like i said- the first time they played in the Finals Love and Kyrie werent even there....Durant wasnt there last year...the Cavs coach is different

if there was a lot of continuity maybe i could go for it...but 2 years ago there was absolutely zero history between these two teams.

IF they face in the Finals again, and this continues into next year and the teams stay the same and all the main players stay the same- then i would be more prone to buy into it...right now im kind of in the middle but leaning towards not a rivalry.
