Montalban's official bitch about the Warriors thread (2018-19)

[Montalban]

Why are you sofa king stupid?

2018-19 NBA Standings | ESPN

Don't be a fool. When I posted this they were #8. Things changed last night.

ESPN must have it wrong. After all, NN is the expert on the Warriors.

You know as well as I do that OKC was 8 yesterday. Come to think of it, maybe you don't. You do play the fool very well.

 

[Montalban]

OKC could easily finish 7th. Right now they are 1/2 game up on San Antonio.

I checked the standings on Y!. Perhaps they have it wrong too? It is all a giant conspiracy.

Here are the official terms of our bet:

If GS plays OKC and OKC wins 3 games or more- I will admit you are the all knowing expert on GS

If GS wins in 6 games or less- you have to admit to were wrong like always and know nothing about GS

Side bet add on propasal:

If you win, I am not allowed to predict another GS series win
If I win, you are not allowed to predict another GS series loss

Sounds good. I'm in. Here's to hoping I lose. I just don't see it though. I have had this gut feeling for a long time now; probably since the DiD, that there is something wrong with this year's team and they will find a way to fail.

No. They were trying to make sure Westbrook got his 20,20,20, which he did.

LOL.

Then why are you so stupid that you are guaranteeing a first round matchup?

You gotta learn to read but if you can find the word “guarantee” anywhere in my postings on the subject I could retract the rainbow you earned

Damn! Who says white men can't jump?

So last night was essentially a punt game for the Dubs. Their playoff positioning is set so there is nothing to play for, so they sat EVERYONE to get everyone rested and not get any garbage time injuries.

And they still had 3 allstars on the floor, including a 2-time MVP. And they won by 9 on the road.

This is just disgusting.

To be fair, AD didn't even play. New Orleans was a dumpster fire this year. The arena was half empty.

But yes the Ws look like they are playing their best ball of the year as the playoffs get going. They may have flipped "the switch"

And while doing all that, they still were not able to avoid the garbage time injury...

Meh, very minor, not concerned

File this under...shit happens.

I honestly can't tell if your posts were serious or sarcastic. Salute.

In this thread, most of my posts are pretty much BS.

This line of thought was serious-ish. The fact that the Dubs can punt a game (not really care about the outcome - not actually try to lose it) and still field 3 all stars and win on the road (regardless of the other teams on-court talent) is impressive. The fact Curry got a boo-boo really has almost nothing to do with the gist of the idea.

The Rockets manhandled the Jazz up in Utah. I'm liking my prediction of them representing the West in the Finals more and more. They are dominant

 

[Montalban]

What an embarrassment. Up 31 and started hot dogging and got beat. LOL

A sorry, sorry display of mental weakness last night. Anxious to hear what the excuses will be here today since the normal nonsense of "Wait til the playoffs start" is no longer usable.

First, congrats. You must be a happy camper this morning.

Second, I am not sure why they are even bothering to schedule the rest of this series. The Clipps are CLEARLY the better team and the Dubs will be lucky to end within 15 in any of the remaining games.

Nice try but fail. You don’t even realize that you made my point for me that I’ve been talking about all season. They are letting inferior teams beat them way to often due to mental weakness

You were clearly right last night. The team totally collapsed. While there is lots of blame to go around, I'm still putting the majority on KD. At this point, I think it's warranted.

It’s extremely frustrating
