Cavs have 15 3s and counting vs the Hawks in the 1st half...Hawks don't know what hit them.

So I read that the Lakers want to trade their top 3 draft pick to the Pacers for George.

Good luck with that. Indiana would be mad to trade him for that.

Hawks have cut it from 40 down to a 34 point deficit since I started watching. I have decided to declare myself Atlanta's good luck charm

Look on the bright side, @thatshortguy; at least you have the Braves...er, I mean the Falcons, er...

It must be dreadful to become a Cavs player, because then you have to come up with some dumb handshake with Kyrie.

Pacers are letting Frank Vogel go, because the Pacers are dumb.

Yeah. Vogel was a big reason why the Pacers had a good season this year - and I think any team looking for a coach has to have Vogel at the top of their interview list now. Except the Lakers, I guess.

[gunnar hendershow]

Pacers letting Vogel go is a clear signal they intend to move George and start over.

[Quom]

Holy shit, JV putting the entire team on his back for the final 6 minutes.

Joerger asked for permission to speak to other teams about becoming their coach, Memphis told him he'd better hope one of them will sign him because he was fired, fucking brutal but not undeserved. He should have come to Minnesota when we offered him the job.

[gunnar hendershow]

Joerger will be fine, he's a bright coach who got a lot out of a terrible team (after injuries). Wouldn't be surprised if he takes a year off to help increase his value.

[Quom]

He's meant to be going to Sac. I just don't get why he kept asking to speak to other teams not getting that it would impact his position at Memphis.

[Cymbols]

Good win for the Raptors. How far are they predicted to go out of interest?

[Your Mom]

To the next round where they lose to the Cavs I imagine

I'd personally put them as underdogs in this series, JV is now out for the series, Lowry's elbow is nasty looking and has been fucking up his shooting, Demar has been terrible. Heat are full of vets that know what to do even without Whiteside holding down the paint. Plus Wade is playing like it's 2006.

Desecrating national anthems gives him power, clearly.

With JV out, I fully expect the Heat to win this in 7 - unless DeRozan can suddenly find his game. He's been pretty bad.
