There was never a fucking doubt once the MVP returned

Jimmy ends 13 years of misery!!!!!!

SPURS-WARRIORS of course.

Take you time healing Steph Curry. Sit out this entire next series.

Heck, you can ask Durant to sit out as well to keep you company. We wont mind.

Toronto played Lowry and DeRozan about 40 minutes, saw VanVleet get hurt, and still didn't get 60 wins.

Go Wizards!!!!

Very disappointed that the Spurs get the Warriors.

Wanted to see the Warriors play a challenging opponent in round 1 without Steph.

They'll make quick work of the Spurs.

Dubs in 5

Feel like Blazers don't have much incentive. They get HCA and the Pels either way.

Doesn't really matter. Just put on Rockets vs Warriors already.

The East will be more fun this year IMO.

How you feel about that Houston series?

I'm guessing Rockets in 5....at most 6

Congrats Wolves fans, Kings now have the longest playoff drought in the NBA!

 

[bksballer89]

2 top 20 picks for Atlanta now.

3 for the Suns I think

 

[bksballer89]

This is a crazy thought and likely won't happen but just imagine on Saturday or Sunday afternoon, you see breaking news: "Kawhi Leonard will be uniform and expects to start"

I want it so bad, come on Spurs!

 

[ericd7633]

The Timberwolves have the 6th best winning % in the NBA when Butler plays. I honestly think they're the 3rd best team in the West, and I think they can give the Rockets a series.

 

[Hornsstampede2.0]

This is a crazy thought and likely won't happen but just imagine on Saturday or Sunday afternoon, you see breaking news: "Kawhi Leonard will be uniform and expects to start"

Sources say he will be listed on the playoff roster.

His sister sort of suggested he is going to be there next week.

Who the fuck knows?

But, it is not entirely impossible. The local San Antonio media give it about a 30% chance.

 

[ericd7633]

If Kawhi plays against GSW minus Steph, that series becomes infinitely more intriguing.
