    I think he'll be ok. I hope so at least.

    Also, it's relatively relieving that Harden didn't make the finals. I'm still a bit bitter.

    Made this video yesterday of the best 15 NBA Draft picks in this century last night.



    Thoughts on the order? Couple of tough ones I left out.

    Good stuff, never actually seen a draft. Can understand why the knick fans booed when curry got called.assume knick were next in line and wanted curry. Didnt realize gasol was so rated highly. How many of the players are still with original club?

    I was begging and praying for Curry to fall to us man...We had the 8th pick. It was the worst feeling when he went 7th. Curry and his family wanted New York and all the mocks had him going to us...He was coming off a stellar Davidson run that year too.

    We ended up taking Jordan Hill...I knew it was garbage.

    Out of the list of I guys I chose

    Parker
    Wade
    Lebron (altho he left)
    Curry
    Irving
    Davis
    Griffin
    Durant
    Westbrook
    Rose

    re-injury?

    Who else knew when that last regulation attempt by Shumpert went barely in and out there went Cleveland's chance to win?

    amazing that shumpert shot almost went in

    shot never should've even happened

    lapse by GS

    took a long time but I finally caught a break in NBA betting. I had Golden State spread and covered thanks to Cleveland getting shut out in OT (except for that meaningless end of OT shot by LeBron that GS didn't even really try to defend).

    I thought GS in 5. If Irving misses more than one game I think it could be a sweep.

    Golden State is the better team, even though Cleveland played them to a draw in Game 1.

    Yeah poor guy. Poor millionaire icon.

    I said gs in 6 originally, and kyrie looks hurt enough to miss a game or 2 I'd think. Maybe it's real bad too. I hope he is ok though.

    Cavs going to win the series . Said so after spurs went down. They'll easily win it IF J.R Smith gets going as Eagle-Dolla won't be able to contain LBJ for long.

    That was an awful shot by LeBron at the end of regulation. Would have been iconic had it gone in but still, he had plenty of time to create a better shot.

    Too funny Shumperts almost going in.

    If JR is as bad as he was in game 1 then Cleveland doesnt stand a chance

    He didn't even contain Lebron last night. Lebron dominated and pretty much did what he wanted. Their strategy was to defend the other guys around him and they did a damn good job of it. Just sag and keep Lebron out of the paint and stop the other guys.

    It was a great strategy. Its not as if Igudala contained Lebron and the other guys had an off night. Maybe then I'd agree and think it was just an off night and Cavs will still win. Thompson, Smith & Shumpert played a combined 115 minutes and only had 17 points between them.. and they didn't even shoot very much because they couldn't get shots. That was great defense. People don't give Curry enough credit for his defense. Myself included usually. and Kerr is a great coach.

    Wasn't that the reason he left in the first place? Lol.

    But overall the cavs aren't shitty. I wouldn't mind if gs wins I just don't see it happening mainly because the other team has the best NBA player on their side.

    lol ya pretty much. Cavs are decent but they lack the depth to match the Warriors. They are definitely capable of playing better. Knock off the ISO crap, I'd like to see them move off the ball more. Curry didn't even have his best game and was defended well by Irving. If the Cavs bench played just a little better the game wouldn't have even gone to OT.

    Cavs with Love and Irving had a shot to beat GS

    without both their chances are slim to none

    LeBron isn't beating a historically great team by himself. Tristan Thompson, Mozgov, and JR Smith isn't a supporting cast that's scaring anyone.
