It's nice to have a legitimate offensive threat on the court with him.

It's just so frustrating how everything went down. I doubt he would have taken the 1 year from Miami last summer like he took from GS but it's hard to feel like Miami wouldn't have been feisty if he was still here and engaged. Oh well.

When he's actually playing hard he's one of the easiest guys ever to root for. Idk if he's won you over yet but if you guys make a run he definitely will.

I won't defend his early season actions whatsoever, but the dude is clearly motivated now and has a lot of gas left in the tank. At what point do you see Riley giving the keys to someone else? He seems to be the source of these uncomfortable exits from Miami.

Really tough to say. It's fully his call. I think Riley's mistake with Jimmy was not realizing that the final decision had to be made last summer. He thought he could push it to this summer, nobody would have cap space for a 35 year old wanting $50m+ and we'd take him back at more favorable terms. That was foolish. I know I expressed extreme trepidation about giving him a max extension--he just gets hurt so often and hasn't cared about the regular season in at least 2 or 3 years--so the right play would have been to trade him. Seems like we could have flipped him for KAT, so that's pretty disappointing.

I think the pressure is mounting right now. Heat fans are in shambles rn and Riley is getting most of the blame. Then Spo. The better the Warriors do, the worse it gets for Riley.

this is crazy, it broke stacey king

That ending was more entertaining than any of the Sweet Sixteen games yesterday. And what a lazy inbound pass by Lebron.

Interesting move by Memphis today

Zach Lowe is back! Just in time for the playoffs.

Warriors/Grizzlies followed by Nuggets/Wolves were extremely entertaining last night.

Carmelo Anthony in the HOF holla atcha boy

Maybe. Some stuff I did, other stuff I didn’t. It starts all the way back at the beginning of the team.

Wild season with the Luka trade and the two coaches fired (Griz and Nuggs).

Go Dubs

Cavs over Hawks/Heat in 4/5
Celtics over Magic in 6
Knicks over Pistons in 6
Pacers over Bucks in 7

Thunder over Grizzlies/Mavericks in 4
Warriors over Rockets in 7
Lakers over T-Wolves in 7
Nuggets over Clippers in 7

The west is going to be an absolute bloodbath. Barring injuries to major players, this is really shaping up to be a legendary playoff season.

Where is 4/5? We need to talk about the play-in legends, the Heat.

Sort of a dud Sunday, but we have Clippers/Nuggets tonight.

i was surprised with the lakers game, can the t wolves really win the whole thing?

They can absolutely win 1-2 series in the playoffs. They won't be scared of the Thunder either (they matched up with them as well as anyone this season).
