Pels are out Cs are facing elimination and i is increasingly looking like people should just steer clear of doing block buster trades w Danny Ainge.

Clips have been fantastic, CP3 and BG have really stepped it up and they're getting some bench contribution out of nowhere. I hope they go a long way 'cause I kinda like them.

Just occurred to me right now, I still don't know who you support in the NBA.

Looking forward to Danny Ainge's next great train robbery. Probably on draft night in form of a S&T Til then, the playoffs look rather interesting.

Clippers vs Spurs game 7, what a classic. CP3 to play on with that hamstring strain was huge, so too was Blake. I was really impressed with Matt Barnes today too, so clutch.

NBA experts - how much did that early buzzer really **** over the Spurs? Obv 1 sec is short but did it really have a big impact on the Spurs tactics?

It showed the clips what play they were going to run which was pretty big since it was the help defender that came across and swatted the lob away. Super high degree of difficulty play though, would have preferred to live and die by a Green/Bellinelli jumper.

Why's that? Hope he's back next year, such a champ.

Also wanted the Clips to win though, wanted to see them get to at least the West Finals. Gutted for CP3, hopefully it's not a serious injury.

I think he is an ATG and probably top 10; but I think it's getting kind of silly when he's discussed as a GOAT candidate. I don't think his last few seasons have propelled him into that discussion simply because of his longevity.

I guess if there is one thing which irks me universally across all sports in general is when a player who is not playing at the same level as the best in his sport is getting a lot of plaudits for simply still being a very good player despite their age.

Who's saying he's the GOAT? Honestly haven't seen or heard a single person say that, but I don't go far from Grantland/True Hoop/Ball Don't Lie and TBJ (refuse to call them the Starters). He's probably the greatest PF of all time but he was probably that before the 2012-2015 run.

(Note: If you say Shaq or Charles you deserve a crack across the chops 'cause everything they say is borderline ********.)

No I mean in the general forums I visit or friends I talk to; not anyone serious (thankfully). When you start talking about Duncan top 5 (which is mostly what gets said), for me that's basically saying he is a GOAT candidate as far as I'm concerned. He is the greatest PF of all-time, no doubt.
