    I agree. Plus our core is a lot more consistent than the Warriors and we would have a pretty big size advantage.

    I'm not much of a fan of this Heat\Bobcats series but Kemba Walker is a player. To bad this guy is on such a shitty team. I remember when this guy got drafted I wanted the Blazers to take him so bad!

    That's probably because he's averaging 36ppg vs the Blazers this year on 50% shooting and 47% from 3

    No, he's right. Lillard just has LA, Matthews, and Batum that can all carry the load. Curry sometimes is 1 v 5.

    The Pacers are in a circular firing squad right now. Never seen anything like it in the NBA. It's much worse than the 2000-01 Blazer collapse to end the season.

    Hibbert with 0 points and 0 rebounds in 12 minutes. We dodged a bullet there.

    Not sure how that was going to happen, since Walker was the 9th pick in that draft, and Portland didn't have a pick until #22.

    Golden State lost game 2 by 40. You must've missed that game. But I'm rooting for GS nonetheless. I hate the Clippers.

    I think we both discussed it in the last week, but wow, either that guy isn't healthy, or he's completely checked out on that team. Portland indeed dodged a bullet, and have a better center for 1/3 the salary.

    It's close. We got swept in three blowouts by the Lakers. At least Indiana won a couple games.

    Yeah, you could get Dallas next round with HCA and in the WCF it would be Thunder/Grizz/Clips/W's. Clips have major question marks mentally at this point. Warriors without Bogut. Grizz are good but still a 7th seed. OKC would have HCA and would be tough but they're struggling with Memphis.

    Curry is the better shooter though. :ghoti:
