    Wasn't there a big kerfuffle made around an AFL player being called a monkey or something similar last year?

    <br>
    Brandon Ingram from Duke a real possibility to go number 1. Like Simmons he's is a multi-dimensional player and at 6'9 he has length. A better outside shooter than Ben, but Ben is stronger, better rebounder and passer. <br>
    Ingram though seems to have that competitive fire even for an 18yo that the 76ers will be looking for.

    Yeah that was it. Thanks.<br><br>
    I hate all this being offended on behalf of somebody else. If somebody was offended on my behalf I would be offended because they obviously thought I had something that I should have been offended about.

    Do you hate the 50000 people booing Adam Goodes every week because they were offended on behalf of the girl who was offended when she got turfed out because Goodes got offended at being called an ape?

    <p>Nearing HT in Game two and OKC haven't been in front yet. Scores closing though.</p>

    <p>In a weird reversal of narrative.. it seems like the longer the Thunder hang around, the more pressure that GSW will feel.</p>

    <p>True.. but that is the opposite of regular season, there was a narrative about them crumbling down the stretch in games. It was a bit of a beat up... but had a grain of truth.</p>

    <p>Oh right.  I was wondering what you were talking about.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Maybe the pep talk they needed.</p>

    <p>A little 8-0 run by the Warriors in the final minute to close out the half. Iggy providing a spark</p>

    Big 3rd by the Dubs. After 4-5 minutes OKC was hanging tight. Cut it 7. Then a huge 3 from Curry and then boom after that. It's a 20 point game. <br><br>
    Not making much inroads to the deficit now.

    <p>OKC will be disappointed getting a thumping like this.</p>
    <p>But they will be happy to be 1-1 after 2.</p>

    <p>The margin is unimportant.  They got smashed by the Spurs in game 1.  What counts is the away win, but they need to win both games at home to hammer home the advantage</p>
