2015-16 NBA Thread (feat. the Wives)

I really hope these two teams play again next year. This should be this generation's Celtics-Lakers.

 

Not to rain on the parade, but it will be interesting if it emerges how beat up Curry really is right now, and has been since the opening round. He clearly wasn't himself.

 

Durability has to be considered part of your skill set. It's part of what makes LeBron so great. He's averaged 42 minutes per game in the playoffs for his career.

 

I don't disagree that he was banged up but I think the game is much different in the postseason. The defense is much more focused and more physical and that clearly wore down their shooters. I agree that it would be fun to have a modern day Celtics-Lakers for the next few years.

 

Baylee's, Cowherd

They also have little to no self awareness of how grotesquely self important they portray themselves. Whitlock in particular has no sense of humor about what he does or says. I follow him on Twitter for shits and grins. He acts like he knows something so revelatory and humanity changing that he believes himself to be a Prophet.

The others are central casting windbags

 

Clearly healthier than Kyrie last year.

 

Cavs winning is such a monumental moment, people are standing in line all around Cleveland to buy newspapers.

 

Dubs have no excuses. They lost. They got beat.

 

The demise of newspapers is delayed by a day thanks for the need to buy a piece of paper you are going to stuff in a box and never see again.

 

And next week they'll wake up and realize they still don't live in Cincinnati, they live in Cleveland

 

He's not the first important NBA player to play 100+ games between the regular season and playoffs. Most of those players in the past, I'm sure, were banged up.
