There there Spurs fans, Justice has been done

[BillMc]

I’d rather here his thoughts on his white privilege and Trump.

White has privilege? Dude never gets off the bench.

-deandre has a $24 million option, i wonder who'll be in the market for him

-hard to believe gallo is making $40+ over the next two years, i've always liked him but he's had health issues

-i hate kyrie, it's why i can't like the celtics

[Arcadian]

poor warriors...now they only have 2 all-stars instead of 4!

[Arcadian]

Go Cavs, Nuggets, and Mavs

[Arcadian]

Pelicans and Thunder lost! Great night for the Spurs.

Hopefully Memphis pulls it pulls it out. I’m trying to figure out who I want to lose between Portland and LA haha. I’d like to catch 3rd but Clippers losing ensures getting closer to locking up a spot.

With CP3 out, MVPFrauden needed a heroic Gerald Green buzzer beater to beat the worst team in the NBA and the media thinks he should win MVP. The world we live in.

It happens. He’s won a lot of games without CP3. You can easily go into a game not respecting your opponent and get beat. That’s almost what happened but it didn’t. They won so it’s gonna be +1 in the W column regardless of the score.

Sadly, it's going to be yet another season where LeGOAT's MVP is gifted to some other player who doesn't deserve it. The media's hatred of LeGOAT gets more pathetic by the year.

It happens again. Just hand that fraud the MVP right now.

One of the many reasons why I want Rockets and not Warriors in 2nd round.

[tbdog]

Leonard really should be looking at this league. The championship is open. Warriors are injured. And this Rockets team is one of the worst number 1 seeds I have seen since maybe Mavs first round exit. Harden might be the worst defensive MVP I have seen. And the East is significantly weaker.

Lol. Self proclaimed highest bbiq ever, yet hes the biggest most athletic player in the game and settles for fadeaway threes to close out qtrs and win games. Dude is dumb as a rock. Coach killer, quitter, and terrible gm.

This. Harden and Paul would definitely be a handful and I'd see the series hinging on a 7th game...but D'Antoni is still running a gimmicky offense which is entirely three-point dependent. Take away the three, and the Rockets start to look a lot like they did yesterday.

[SAGirl]

Hmmm well I guess coaching does matter.

Suns/Rockets teams just played different then 95% of the league...so during the regular season it’s difficult to defeat because there isn’t time to game plan against..plus you add the talent he has it’s not an easy match up.

Playoff basketball is totally different because you do have the time to plan etc..

[spursistan]

Kyrie is done for the season. But at least there is sense of clarity with his injury..

[bklynspursfan]

I'm waiting for a similar announcement for Kawhi already at this point

[Ice009]

Wow. Hasn't Kyrie had knee issues in the past? I mean before Lebron came back to Cleveland? Not sure I'd want to trade for him like some posters here have mentioned in a potential KL trade package.

[KDKSpurs24]

In the off-season, didn’t they say that Kyrie threatened to have knee surgery if he didn’t get traded from the Cavs? Welp.. guess it comes back to get you in the worse times.

[spursistan]

This looks like a serious intervention that could segue into next season..

Kyrie health issues is another reason why I don't think Boston will sell the farm for Kawhi..There is absolutely no way Ainge is including BOTH of Tatum and Jaylen Brown in that deal..

[spurraider21]

boston is gonna be a 55-56 win team despite having no hawyard all year and kyrie out a good amount of time
