    It doesn't really matter. If it comes to it, all we have to do is beat them at home on closing night and we're the 3 seed.

    If CJ was able to gather and jump straight up he would have gotten run over. But CJ was moving pretty hard to the side and was just focused on getting the shot off without getting blocked. I doubt they would have called it even if he did get run over though.

    Love the clip of Baldwin stripping Harden, then Harden trying to bully Baldwin and getting it stolen again, and the fucker still throws his arms up to complain to the refs. He's a piece of shit. I'm not a fan of the Warriors and I've been wanting someone to end their run, but not this Houston team. Fuck these guys. I hope karma fucks them with a cold iron stake.

    That last shot was the only thing I liked about CJ's game tonight. He had to do that. He was mediocre most of the game otherwise.

    But he speaks to Liberals on their level. You know....emotionally.

    Look.....I get it. You don't like the guy. That's fine. I don't care if you do or don't. But really....does it really require you to make cracks about Fox news stereotypes (which I don't watch....I know that's surprising to some people that not everyone who voted for Trump watches Fox news, but it really is true.....) or make cracks about "orange face"?

    Come on man. All I said was let's temper the hype about Baldwin just a bit. People on here are acting like he's the second coming of Steve Nash.

    You disagreed. That's fine. But instead of approaching it rationally, you resorted to emotion, and part of that is aiming at the low-hanging fruit that "triggers" your emotion....in this case, a picture of Trump.

    Do you have any idea how stupid that is?

    Come on. This wasn't worth 3 pages of argument here. I like Baldwin.....but it's one game. Let's see what else he brings in the future.

    Fair enough?

    I like that even Dwight Jaynes went off on how Harden gets babied by the refs. Jaynes doesn't have many homer takes so he's not looking at this through Blazer colored glasses.

    Ed could play, but coach won't let him

    BRoy has healed his knee, wears a lot of makeup, and in cognito goes by the name "Wade Baldwin IV"

    Jade's avatar fits Jade perfectly. I like it, even the nerd-fake suntan. Jade, don't change it.

    I'm guessing Ed and Dame coming back for the next game. I hope it's that and not that Dame has a more serious injury than first thought and Moe is done for the year.

    I didn't have a problem with the shot either really. I was just nit picking because someone said they thought he could have drawn a foul.

    And your avatar looks as annoying as I imagine you to be. Seriously, I get my avatar might piss people off, but yours looks as punchable as that Pharma Bro Martin Shkreli.

    Love you too jlprk. :cheers:

    Fair enough. I just can't fathom the mindset of someone who chooses to get upset by a picture of Trump. That's all. Especially when the whole post that started this nonsense had nothing whatsoever to do with politics.
