NBA: Thunderef vs Lakeref: Who will Stern favor?

[Thread]

^Pussy & asshole.

[OKC]

this is a great question and one that finds STern in a tough position. it's like asking if you prefer your original son or your newest one....

I think Stern realizes that Kupchak has assembled a $100 million sandwich and there's not much he can do to save it. also, his original son, the Lakers, have had their moment in the spotlight, the Thunder still need to win a championship in order to validate Durant and validate Stern's horrible decision to approve the Sonics' relocation.

so I say Stern gives Thunderefs more of a hookup, but they really don't need it against Lakers. Thunderefs beat Lakerefs in 5, maybe 6 just so the league can make some extra coin on it.



crofl, Shiner is a pretty good beer and not even the best microbrewery in Texas. what does OK have that's even close?

bad taste in beers
switching to meth because there are no good breweries in OK

The sad thing is I really think you've probably convinced yourself to believe this conspiracy horse . People and their conspiracy theories - lame attempt to divert attention away from the real reason for others' success.
Also, there's a brewery in Oklahoma called Choc. Go look their brews up on beeradvocate.com and notice how much higher rated they are than Shiner junk.

^That's so they're insulated at loss:::

They win, they're peaches.
They lose, they're victims & vindicated.
It's an American thing.

Yeah. There's some really dillusional posters on this sight. Ive heard it all. One guy even claimed that Kevin Durant was no more than a glorified Steve Novak without the help from refs. STEVE NOVAK!

Mostly the San Antonio contingent. Some of it has leaked into the Dallas people, but, they're not as rabid and paranoid as the Spurs guys. Frankly, I think they just agree with some of it to appear weak & vulnerable/From years of denial at ring.

Stern will always favor the Lakers, and he'll do anything he can to keep them relevant. This year's job will be difficult, because they suck. Despite the fact that he did his s game to get them Dwight instead of Chris Paul, and enabled them to keep Pau instead of trading him, the Lakers still suck...all because K. Bryant is so overrated it's not even funny. However...one thing Bryant can still do is dribble around until a whistle blows, then make two free throws. That's what Stern has to work with. So he'll do everything he can to get the Lakers to a Game 7, and I'm sure he'll want the Lakers to win that Game 7.

Is that what every back man calls your Mom ?

The Lakers are still Stern's team no matter what. The Thunder will still be good for years to come, but the Lakers pretty much have a 2 year window to win it all, and then they'd be forced to rebuild due to the tax situation

You just couldn't act like somebody for two in' sentences. You just had to precede stoic accuracy with fart catching.

You wanted to, I see it, but, you were afraid.

Get out. Asshole.

A lot of these guys do. One misstep and we're right back in the .

I'd ask if anyone has an opine or information if the Jazz are animated & directed to make the playoffs, or, just marking time, but, I don't want to be ostracized for 3 in' days over it.

Never really doubted that tbh

Gentlemen, of course OKC will win the series. That wasnt the question. the question was who will stern favor: Thunderef or Lakeref.

its very important to understand that these are four very different teams. The Thunderefs are a fast moving, foul selling, high flying, hot FT shooting, shot blocking, highlight reel juggernaut. The THUNDER struggle without their best playmaker Harden, and unfortunately rely on a somewhat selfish, ego filled, highly baitable, questionable 4th quarter alpha dog (westbrook) , and a beta who is afraid to take the reigns. The THUNDER, unaided, are a monkey balling, pump fake biting, horrible flopping, mentally fragile team that doesnt have NEARLY the level of coaching, poise and composure to play through their opponents athleticism matching intense Defense. (See finals).

My point is this. The Thunderefs would EASILY SWEEP the lakers. However, the Lakerefs would play one of a series against the Thunder with NO LESS than 6 games, POSSIBLY 7.

for my hard earned money, give me the Thunder over the Lakerefs in 6 games. Stern is all about them storylines, and it Should be a great series, quite frankly.

lakers will be favored for this one imho. OKC are safe as the #2 seed and stern wont want them to take the #1 only to fight his other loveboy (lakers) in the first round head 2 head, while the lakers being chased by jazz and the difference between the two teams is no bigger than one game. stern will give a win to the lakers and help them clinch the #8 spot imho

Isn't it sad that the NBA is the main sport where fans talk so much about the officiating? What does that say about Stern and the NBA?

perhaps that's because its way more difficult to rig a football or baseball game than rigging a basketball game imho. plus, the majority of NBA players are s and most them s are too dumb to comspire against any unfair treatment stern imposes on them

i've had this theory as well my yella . I think the owners underestimate their audience. think back to 2002 WCF, Stern and his henchman probably realized they can hookup their golden franchise, people might notice something is off, but would forget about it in time. They probably didn't think that s would have recorded this , that videos would be uploaded and streamed on youtube, and this example of shadiness would still be talked about and studied. Same with the lottery being discussed in further detail. They probably imagine a lot of their fans are living in projects, drinking grape juice and smoking dro all day, and that's probably true to a large extent. But a lot more people notice some of the WWE that goes on.
