    Sly, It would cost more than the jersey. I could possibly do that if I wanted to lead an exciting alternate lifestyle.

    Thank god that relic retired. He got taken out back and shot a few years ago.

    Some refs need to be taken "out back" to be put out of their misery.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    No, if you bet $11, you win $5 on top of getting your $11 back.

    The Warriors are odds-on favorites (greater than 50% likelihood, so better chance than the rest of the NBA combined), so you're risking more than you can win, but you do still come out ahead if you bet on them and they win.

    No worries. They'll replace Steph with Dame in the 2nd round. :happy:

    Don't change that. You'll ruin the story behind it. We have GOT to somehow get Nurkić to see it...

    Genius! Hell, why even have him wait for the jump ball. He'd be forever famous for the fastest NBA disqualification ever....
