    WB is just something else. The guy is having a usage rate that is unheard of in league history but he is actually doing something with it. No player, save Lebron in the playoffs, is more exhilarating to watch when he gets a rebound and sprints up the court at full speed.

    I love watching a player dominate like Westbrook has. Especially when their team isn't quite good enough to win it all. Always entertaining to watch though.

    He's basically doing mid 2000s AI/Kobe with higher stats.

    Watching Nurkic blow up after Pau Gasol strung us along last summer makes me SO HAPPY. Fuck the Spurs. Only time I ever actively root for GS.

    Wow, golden state can't miss. Still perfect shooting in the fourth quarter and nearly half way through it.

    Is Tony Parker a HOFer? I think he is but I think it's a good question.

    Damn. Got to give Kerr credit. GS can play lock down D when they need too.

    Oh BTW, Fuck the Spurs!

    Well looks like the warriors will be wrapping up the one seed so a good chance the spurs will be resting players against us.

    I may be crazy but I don't think the core the Spurs plan to build with (Kawhi/LA) is gonna amount to anything special. Once Parker, Manu, and Pau retire where do they go? I don't see Green, Dedmon, Anderson, Simmons, or Murray as guys who you build around stars with.

    I always thought the Spurs had that FU swagger, Warriors take it to a new level.

    Definitely. 4 rings. 2007 NBA Finals MVP. At one point in his career, he was the best PG in the league. No debate. First ballot.

    I don't know if I can get behind this statement. He played when AI, Kidd, Nash, CP58, and D-Will were at their peaks.

    I'm not sure if I had that right; Miami is further behind, but Milwaukee and Atlanta both won tonight, they are now two games behind Memphis. I must have mis-read something the other night. OKC won so they stay 2.5 ahead of Memphis.
    One problem; Milwaukee beat Boston, so that helps Cleveland.

    Clippers live or die by CP3. If they lose him this summer they have no choice.

    Blow it up Ballmer! With Vonleh playing like he has we could package him among others for Griffin
