Why is the cripple talking shit lol

 

[dtgold88]

what did Blake say to make Cousins come up with that gem?

 

[Shanemansj13]

with no KD nor Klay? Guess could sub out LAC if they don't pick up a marquee FA.

Thinking NY/Brooklyn might be better than NY/Indiana for the early game.

I mean maybe they wouldn't put them in there but they still have been to the Finals 5 years straight hard to see them being left out even without Klay or KD. Who knows

I mean, you can't call Boogie a liar lol...

Cavs went 4 straight and were left out. sure, GS wont come close to sinking to Cavs level, but if they figure them to be a middling 6-8 seed not sure they put them on Christmas with better, more attractive options.

I'm not...just curious what Blake said/did.

Well Lebron left and after he left they had nothing. They will still have Curry, that's all that really matters. Curry makes money for GS and they will still be on TV just as much even if Curry and Dray are the 1 and 2 until Klay comes back. I don't see them being left out bc players are injured, that's just my opinion though.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

GSW is going to be in there. No doubt

Sub Indiana with Golden State.

Nobody really cares about the Pacers

You might be right. Hard to know what they think about Curry if they also believe they will not be in the mix and might be 20-15 or so on Christmas.

For me, I'm already switching that to NY/Brooklyn. Early game often is a who cares type matchup.

I think GS gets in over LAC if they want them.

Maybe Cavs/Memphis as a darkhorse?

They will not be on national TV as much as the past few years but they will be on more than average.

I agree with that. There will still be no shortage of GS games, just not sure they get one on their marquee day.

Not sure they wont though, of course.

 

[CitySushi]

I would imagine, even if Klay isn't healthy, that the NBA will put the finals rematch on x-mas day. The Warriors and Cavs have run it back every year since they were in the finals and I see this being a trend for the NBA.

If I had to guess on the games I'm going:

Knicks vs. Celtics
76ers vs. Milwaukee
Raptors vs. Warriors
Thunder vs. Rockets
Lakers vs. Clippers

 

[Shanemansj13]

Not as much but they will still be one of the top teams on national television.

So exactly what I said. Thanks!

His max is $27.25M. Both the Lakers and Suns can get there.

Yeah, saw something about that earlier. Heard he wouldn't mind coming back because Magic is gone.

 

[Shanemansj13]

So exactly what I said. Thanks!

14-15 - 25 (5th in the NBA) - first year championship
15-16 - 25 (led NBA)
16-17 - 28 (led NBA)
17-18 - 31 (led NBA)
18-19 - 40 (2nd in NBA)

Televised games overall over the last 5 years have increased as a whole but the Warriors have led the NBA in most 3 years in a row, last year they actually were 2nd behind the Lakers. I don't see them dropping out anytime soon since they still have Curry, like I said.

NBA Rumors: Kawhi Leonard To Meet With This Western Conference Team

Kawhi Leonard reportedly has at least some interest in returning to Texas.

No, we’re not talking about the San Antonio Spurs.

Leonard is expected to grant a free agency to the Dallas Mavericks, NBA insider Chris Sheridan reported Monday, citing a source. Leonard reportedly will opt-out of his current deal with the Toronto Raptors and become a free agent July 1, thought he is “seriously considering” re-signing with the NBA champions.

A person very close to the #Mavs just told me that Dallas is expecting to get a meeting with unrestricted free agent @kawhileonard — Chris Sheridan (@sheridanhoops) June 24, 2019

 

[Shanemansj13]

Kawhi, Doncic and Porzingis. I think Cuban would blast off in his shorts if that happened lol

 

[CitySushi]

Warriors doing their subliminal KD recruiting at the introduction of their new rookies today. All of them are wearing the KD 12's. #lightyears
