Bill Simmons latest column has a small mention about dem Spurs

[ElNono]

The NBA’s final regular-season week usually revolves around playoff seed positioning, MVP conversations, awards ballots, this Spurs picture (http://i0.wp.com/www.sheridanhoops.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Screen-Shot-2014-05-16-at-6.35.32-PM.png?resize=606%2C339), some unapologetic mega-tanking by the worst seven to eight teams, the annual “Ricky Rubio might be the worst shooter ever” conversation, the annual OKC newspaper article that revises Harden trade history (http://newsok.com/the-thunders-zombie-trade-why-james-harden-to-houston-is-the-deal-that-will-never-die/article/5407507),1 (http://grantland.com/the-triangle/the-nbas-furious-17-capturing-the-noncontenders-state-of-mind/#fn-1) one hellacious contract-year run (hello, DeAndre!), one out-of-nowhere player blossoming (the Stifle Tower, everybody!), and, of course, fans of every potential no. 8 seed watching those epic 2007 Warriors-Mavs videos (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7V0Hm2Sh_AU) and thinking, Why not us?

Maybe your only highlight was your team jettisoning Josh Smith’s contract as if carving out a cancerous mole.

"Can you think of a better 21st-century asset than the sentence, “Next year, we get to swap first-round picks with the Knicks”? It’s neck-and-neck with Apple stock. I vote for Door B."

With lines like that, Simmons proves he is the funniest sportswriter of all time, hands down. And the best on the NBA currently as well. He's nearing legendary status.

The gold line was Minnesota drafting two point guards in the lottery before S Curry. Classic horrible.

"Here’s my favorite Nuggets stat, though:

Denver from October 2007 through December 31, 2013: 316-190

Denver from January 1, 2014, until now: 22-30 + 29-49

What happened on January 1, 2014? Colorado legalized marijuana. We’ll be back on “Probably Just a Coincidence,” right after this." :)
