    I’m genuinely excited to watch the NBA Finals matchup this year between the Rockets and the Warriors.

    Should be a tremendous series ... the Warriors are going to need a relatively healthy Curry to pull it out.

    My expectation is that it'd be a series that goes 7 and the Warriors pull it out on the road. But I definitely think that the Rockets will likely jump out early in the series and the Warriors will likely have to win Games 6 and 7 to win the series.

    Kreist... Heads up Millenial fucktards, Kobe fucking Bryant is better than LeBron.

    The only ones that think LeBron is better than Jordan are the ones that were filling diapers when MJ was collecting rings.

    When did Oladipo get that good?

    They've got a tremendous young foundation in Oladipo, Turner, and Sabonis. They've got a good chance of picking up a solid player in the draft (wouldn't be shocked if they were to get a buy like Jalen Brunson who would fit what they do quite well), a bit of cap space, and the opportunity for a ton of cap space coming in 2019 as they have a lot of expiring deals going into next year that they can either ride out or leverage for a trade.
    They are a non factor. Boston and Philly have way better foundations.

    Kobe needed Shaq and Gasol. People forget that. Basketball is a TEAM sport. Kind of like soccer.

    I know I'm right because of the 4 WTF's given. 3 WERE fillin diapers when Jordan was winning and the 4th is filling Depends now.

    Rockets have issues staying interested once they are up big. Dont think it will happen against Golden State.

    I agree with that ...

    The odds that Indiana gets out of the East is probably quite limited ... they could have a similar run in them comparable to what Milwaukee had in the early to mid 80s. They are far from a finished product at this point though. Their challenge will be how do they manage their cap space heading into 2019 when they should have a bunch available. Can they get a really good piece that complements that foundation and/or get something in the draft that complements them. They'll need some help for sure to get past Boston and Philly but I could definitely see a trip or two to at worst the Eastern Finals in their future.
