    Yeah, way too many outliers to take DPS too seriously.

    Unless, you believe Russell Westbrook (DPS = 169.11) is a better defender than Rudy Gobert (DPS = 152.54).

    Damn if we only took care of Memphis and Dallas, we could all be resting right about now.

    Lakers have a good chance to win tonight, even more so with Lonzo out.

    Thanks man. Just turned it on. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I just don't want anything to do with the Spurs in the playoffs.......

    I know what you mean.
    I remember this forum after we beat Houston in round 1.
    The Spurs were still battling Dallas and everyone wanted the Spurs because we went 4-0 or something in the regular season against them.
    I said that's just dumb. Spurs are a different animal in the playoffs, that we should want Dallas.
    I was told by the majority I was wrong.
    Only one person owned up to being wrong after the Spurs 4-1'd us.

    With that said. Spurs don't have Duncan, Manu is a shell of himself, and Parker isn't as explosive.
    Gasol would worry me, but Aldridge doesn't.
    Frankly I think Nurk would cause too many problems for the Spurs.

    But point is moote. Spurs & Utah will match up with one another in round 1.

    As much as I hate to admit it, Lamarcus is still really good.

    So correct me if I’m wrong but is it true the Blazers could have drafted Kyle Kuzma?

    They have fan support, a coach that the refs are scared of and one of the best bigs in the game. No thank you.

    We should go fund me a better one. I'm serious as a heart attack. Do you know how much PUB it would get??

    We should do it. I'd donate. I could get others to donate to!! Let's really do it! You could put it on your YouTube channel. It would get picked up by the Oregonian.

    We should do it!
