How awesome would it be if the Spurs knock the Warriors out of the playoffs and the Raptors take out the Cavs? I'll quit posting on RM forever if that happens.

I have no idea what to make of the Cavs right now.

To be clear, both of those things have to happen for me to leave RM forever. Not just one.

The raptors suck. They really should have found a PF at the deadline. Taj Gibson would have been perfect. Instead, they continue to start Scola and the advanced stats hate him. If they get the bulls in the first round they are done. They are the only team the bulls can beat though.

Make up your mind, are the Bulls going to make the playoffs or not?

Back to back against the Knicks at this time of the year? That's nice.

Craig Sager seems like such a great guy. And a Bulls fan too. Very sad.

Is this the place to talk 2016 draft, or does that get its own thread?

We are all inclusive. The 2016 draft class blows though.

Ok. Can anyone think of an example, ever, where a college team had two 1st round picks and failed to make the NCAA tourney?

Yeah, it is pretty unprecedented. I'm not buying into the "this class sucks" dehype until they actually play some games. 2015's class was just supposed to be good, but it has been pretty great.

It was at the end of a fluff article about LeBron and Melo's friendship. I can't lie, Bleacher Report totally trolled me by the update they sent yesterday. I reacted in a very verb-like, "WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS GUY?!?!" kind of way. Then I read the article.
