That's all I ask


Who gives a chit about Rozier lol


Yup. Let's give away Herro and Rozier. Probably going to have to trade away Jaquez to acquire a star. What bench scoring will be left? It's not caring about him. It's about filling a need that'll be there.


There are some guys, that no matter what they may appear to occasionally contribute, are incapable of being part of any serious team. See: Christian Wood, Kelly Oubre, etc.

Knicks are the second best team in the East and they deserve this, wish them the best against the Celtics!

Salute top ten Brunson!

funny u say that, I am always relieved once the Saltdics have been eliminated. hate it when they even make the finals.

if we do get a t-pups saltdics finals, I won’t be able to sleep. :lol:

Jokic/Murray seem unstoppable rn, but Nuggets bench seem like a weak point from what I've seen in the previous series. Not sure they couped the lost of Bruce Brown yet. Wolves defensive weapons might be an issue too

Will be a tough one


I give the champs a very slight edge but it could go either way imo. woofs have much better health & depth this time around. 2024 rudy >>> 2023 rudy. woofs play elite d. need kat to eliminate stray voltage & Ant to minimize mistakes to have a chance. nuggs play flawless.

Fu%k rooting for the Knicks to win?, **** that

**** Boston too,

And Cavs need to collapse for Mitchell reasons,

This leaves Indy as the only team to root for.

And if by some miracle Indy gets out of the East, I'm rooting for the Wolves to beat them in the finals.

I' salty like that, **** any Eastern team.

Order of teams to root for (assuming Cle and Mavs move on):

1. Wolves (Edwards is enough to cancel out any hate for Rudy)
2. Nugs (Don't reeeeeeally want to see them repeat, but whatever)
3. OKC (Would prob be #1 if it wasn't for that horrific SGA/Chet commercial)
4. Mavs (Not a huge fan of Luka or the flat earther)
5. Pacers (Fk Indi but the team is somewhat likeable)
6. Knicks (Fk the Knicks but the team is somewhat likeable)
7. Cavs (Fk the Cavs, Fk Dan Gilbert, Fk the city of Cleveland and Fk the state of Ohio forever)
.
.
.
8. ISIS
9. Al-Qaeda
10. Hamas
11. Nazis
.
.
.
12. Celtics (no further explanation necessary)

edit: just to be clear, I hate those terrorist organizations listed above. But I hate the Celtics even more.

Philly played hard. I'm not sure Dame would have done anything here.
1. Herro 2. Bol Bol 3. Seko 4. Bruno
unless we trade up for Barrett or trade down for PJ Washington

Lowry with a couple of doughnuts to end his season…

I don’t think I have ever disliked a Heat player more than him! He had such a piss poor attitude and effort in his tenure with us and I am glad that he didn’t turn into Cinderella once he left us! Petty I know…

One of the worst trades we ever made, you can argue he cost us a ring.

Add a real scoring guard in 2021 and who knows what could've been.

Just awful play, attitude, contract, effort, fit, connection.

Just hope the front office learned from this debacle.

Goodness he’s not as big, fast, or as explosive as Wade but Mitchell’s drives look just look Wade the way he splits the defense and also uses his swim move with the ball in his hands
