NBA Season 2016/17
-
if you are only down by 2 shooting at 36% i would say you are doing okay
-
@mariner4life Cavs shot about 60% in the first quarter. You can't keep that up all game
-
It's Curry and Durrant time in the 4th
-
Lebron doing his all to try and keep Cavs in it. Kyrie gone a bit cold here in the 4th
-
Klay, bucket. JR straight back with a big 3 and foul.
-
How many times today have we seen Green to AI. Another dunk.
Sheesh Cavs have missed some gimmes this quarter.
-
JR another big 3, but that's it. Warriors win championship.
KD will be Finals MVP.
-
can't say LBJ didn't do everything in his power to win that series, just outmatched when his support players didn't come with him.
I wonder what happens to that roster now?
-
@mariner4life If they'd brought the intensity from game 4 into every game they would have made the series closer. They need more shooters, sadly Korver didn't get going. He might come on next season, but I'm not sure a major shuffle is likely or realistically going to get them a championship
-
We are looking at dynasty here. They seem so unselfish, Curry and Thompson are sons of NBA players and understand the value of winning and don't seem to have ego that will compel them to demand max contracts. Especially Curry who earns about 50 mil a year in off court endorsements
-
@canefan I've always been a fan of West. It didn't work out for him last year at the Spurs, but I'm happy he's got a ring. He took the massive pay cut last year when he went from $12m in his final year at the Pacers to just over $1m at the Spurs. He was on about the same this season. He was a good role player during the season.
-
@ACT-Crusader he was an all star for much of his career. What he says about the team is harder in practice to do in pro sports. Hard to check ego and money at the door but the warriors seem to be able to. If Curry opts to take less than the max next season it will be the biggest signal that these guys aim to take less to stay together
-
It's kind of a shame that KD attracts so much hate, because it distracts from the incredible things this team has achieved. You forget the way they have built over the last five years, drafting Curry, Thompson and Green and adding in guys like Livingston and Iguodala.
They might easily win another 2-3 titles. And we're on track for a fourth Cavs/Warriors finals season barring an injury to Lebron.
-
Jimmy Butler was traded to every team in the NBA according to different rumour pages on facebook. It seems like every day there were at least two shopped photos of him in different uniforms.
-
Not particularly excited about the Sun's picks in the draft, and to make matters worse the talk of a trade to liberate Porzingis from NY didn't pan out. If we had his presence in the post along with the exciting young back court we have, we'd be instant playoff contenders again. Sigh.

@canefan said in NBA Season 2016/17:
@barbarian Curry Thompson and Green. All in the second round. That is legendary
@canefan Rubbish. Curry and Thompson were both first round lottery picks!
