Winning on the road against the second favorite to win it all without your second best player. Plus national tv game with definite playoff feel.
Guess OKC has that so far......when does the banner go up?

Not sure why the "shorten the season" nonsense continues to come up. It's dumb and pointless.

We all know that...

A. The owners aren't going to just sit back and absorb that revenue loss

and

B. The players aren't going to accept the resultant cut in their salaries.

and

C. The TV money will be less as well.

So, if the season were to be shortened...fans would foot the bill by paying more for anything NBA related.
Plus let’s face it, just because the work load is reduced doesn’t mean everyone plays more.

Obviously after it’s won. Why do you even post during the regular season with that logic?

To answer your question because the reg. season matters.....they don't give out extra credit for the type of win it is.

But what do you mean "after it's won"? after the title of best regular season victory is won you hang the banner (so after reg. season ends)?

Either way....just messing with ya. Lighten up, Francis.

Stats are fun, over 82 games a way to make it seem meaningful. What I mean is no banners are hung until you actually win one. The Thunder don’t have much hanging in theirs yet, I’m hopeful by the time the new arena opens 3 years from now that is not the case.

Should be pretty easy to get done if teams will ignore he's kind of up there, regressing and making an obscene amount of money.
Yeah I mean other than those minor details he’s great

Celtics pit up 63 threes, that’s insane. The Thunder are last in the league in free throw disparity but they found a team they could turn that on and they got to the line 35 times. I really think it was the best win in the league this season, def up there.

Could not agree more. Can’t bitch about refs when most of your attempts is at the 3 pt line

The Cs will never get a "can't bitch about refs" memo. Tatum will cry nearly any time he's covered and misses (even if he fouls his opponent)

-->Never in the running for GOAT, sure. Definitely compared often in game style.

That's what some people don't understand or won't acknowledge.

And that's what I've been saying.

All of the hype going on with social media and James's flopping. I have stated from the beginning that James has been a significant traveler dating back to his day in Cleveland. See for yourself.
