2016-17 NBA Regular Season Thread

[LAD]

The same fortune tellers who said the Cavs had no chance last year are the same ones telling me the warriors would've won game 5 with draymond.

Forgive me for taking your Crystal ball projections with a grain of salt.

Now, had those fortune tellers been available to warn us about the forthcoming trickery that would've been nice!

I had a Devil's 3 way once, and a lot of homophobes even consider that gay, whatever.

You know, it is possible to over-share. And this would be one of those times.

That's all you can do these days, or the far right (or far left, depending on your leanings) will drive you crazy.

Yep.

I got into a discussion with one of my husband's relatives about calling the President and his Followers, Trumpanzes on the internet.

I simply pointed out that folks have been fired for saying the former first lady was a Ape in Heels and I don't want him putting that crap on my page.

My inbox was flooded with " why are you upset? Are you alt right, sweetie?"

Despite being amused at the play on words with all right and alt right, I handed out a bunch of blocks that day......lol

Oversharing would be stating that at one point I left the room to do a few lines and take a shot of Jack Daniels.

But I don't like to speak on those type of details, don't want someone of your stature to think even less of me than you already do.

Someone of my stature means what exactly? I'm not sure why someone would share such private details to a group of people they've never even met face to face.

It's almost like people are unaware that prospective, and current, employers look at your Facebook, Instagram.

That shit stays on the internet forever.

All it takes is one dickhead to screen shot you.

It means you're highly respected.


and as for the second part, for all you know I'm making it all up, and you don't know me personally, so what's matter? And if you did know me personally, I'd tell you anyway.

It's hard to say that GSW wouldn't have had the advantage, with the momentum of being up 3-1 at home. But Kyrie and LeBron were amazing in game 5, so just having Green doesn't mean things were gonna be different. I thought Green should have been suspended in game 5 vs OKC, but it didn't happen. In the end, it doesn't matter because the series is over and the Cavs won.

I can only imagine what a conversation would be like with people do you know.

 

[WiggyRuss]

What we had was 11 games missed by the Cavs 2nd and 3rd best player.

And then 2.5 games missed by the Warriors 6th best player.


The 1 game suspension that resulted from an accumulation of flagrant fouls isn't even worthy of mentioning in the same breath as injuries that can't be controlled.

thank you for saying the OBVIOUS.

trying to compare some guy's uncontrollable nut punching habit and resulting suspension due to an accumulation of flagrants to injuries is pretty fucking stupid.

Try to tell my son this all the time.

Well thank you be the implication came across differently.

And you're right, you don't know me & I don't know you & based on other posts from you I believe you would tell me anyway!

 

[TJL]

Try to tell my son this all the time.

I've literally seen someone post an ounce of weed on facebook saying "I got dat fire, hmu"

I did not hit him up.

People are stupid, is my point, learning how to use social media should be a class in school at this point.

I think the reason most GS fans believe they would've won game 5 with Dray is because he was making life really hard for LBJ & Kyrie with his weak side help defensively- particularly in the paint. That's why they struggled in the games proceeding him being out.

 

[WiggyRuss]

No worries.

But as a side note- fortune tellers weren't required when the Dubs had ACTUALLY already won 3 out of 4 games played.

its cool, you are just wrong.

i mean you watched the series. You watched Kyrie Irving just totally outplay Steph Curry- let alone LEBron who Curry isnt even near his level.

 

[LAD]

its cool, you are just wrong.

.

Well no, you can't say that because Dray didn't play. Now, had he played without the suspension and the Cavs won we'd be having a different conversation.

But it is cool, because hopefully they get to match up again & we'll see what happens.

I think I speak for everyone here, when I say my personal stories are more entertaining than Wiggy's constant shit posting.

Makes sense then to believe that. LeBron had a strong game 6 and 7 with Green there and Kyrie was pretty good as well, maybe him not being around for a game is what they needed to get going.
