    I was certainly one of those posters. I didn't think Boston had it in them, given they seemed like only a piece away from winning. But, I certainly don't know everything. And that's ok. I'll admit to being wrong here. I'm not a psychic.

    I have the soundtrack CD from Dusk Till Dawn ..great soundtrack and always loved that film. Horror should always have comedy as a ground zero.

    You sound like the Trump of dogs.

    Ok. I'll delete this if this gets political. Haha. Just a light jab.

    Boston hasn't won a title recently enough for Durant to consider playing there. He wants a team more accomplished than only making one NBA finals this last year.

    Since the Lakers did win 2 years ago he will consider playing there, but only if they trade for Kyrie and one other new all star along with Davis and LeBron.

    Durant would also potentially go play in Toronto, but only if Kawhi goes back as well as DeRozen and they can add Donovan Mitchell.

    Does anyone else find it a little hilarious that so much time has passed that Detroit's teal uniforms are now considered classic?

    Maybe Durant will consider playing for his hometown Washington Wizzards?
    Or maybe back to Texas? San Antonio is pretty close to Austin?

    Edit- It's a joke.... Kind of?

    a multimillionaire couldn't afford the Blazers, let alone the rest of the league accepting him as an owner (esp considering the sexual misconduct allegations that are currently unfolding surrounding him)....as far as troll joke tweets go, this one is lazy.

    Still funny, but not well thought out. I'm not sure why people think Ballsack sports is actually funny.

    I was gonna give it its own thread but thought It wouldn’t go over well at all.

    Jackie Brown was a very underrated movie. Robert Forster (RIP) was excellent

    more than all that though is Tatum + Brown have actually developed good synergy after a rocky start; they don't step on each other's toes anymore. Tatum and Durant play the same role and essentially the same position. There's a decent chance that pairing would fail spectacularly.

    What the fuck is anyone supposed to do now?!? Toronto already looked like they were going to have a pretty good team but now they have The Boa Constrictor aka The Cruz Missile aka Bo Cruz. The guy does it all. No one will be able to score in the paint against the Raptors, he stretches the floor and attacks the basket ruthlessly. Why they didn't lock him up on a four year deal is beyond me.
