Should probably note that Draymond was absolutely massive down the stretch of that game. Multiple steals and just generally great basketball on both ends. The guy shows up in the big moments.

Man, F the rest of these playoffs. My teams are dropping like flies.

Draymond hadn't scored over 20 in 3.5 years. Ridiculous performance from him.

Thunder, Wolves, Bucks, Kings were my hopes for entertainment. |

How about seeing if Jimmy Butler can somehow carry a mediocre basketball team to the Finals again? |

Those other two definitely stand out as two of the biggest upsets ever as well. |

Players and officials cannot just decide a rule isn't a rule because they want to break it, or use it to manipulate the score. How do you not see that? It literally strips away the integrity of the sport. If it's a one possession game, and one team inbounds the ball, and the player picks up the ball and walks 4 steps before he starts to dribble, and it's not called, it's shady AF and it makes every call the official made during the game suspicious and shady AF by association, which means it's possible that the players didn't actually decide the outcome of the game. At that point it becomes entertainment with predetermined outcomes like professional wrestling, and not an actual sporting event. Again, I use the example of football. Semantics aside, we all know that to make a legal catch, the ball can't hit the ground first. It's one of the most basic rules of football, and the basis for the forward pass. The players and refs can't just decide to call passes caught on one hop a legal catch because they want to. |

Love this response from Giannis. Definitely a good way to put sports into perspective. He’s so hard not to root for. Respect to Jimmy Buckets too, though. Grizz looked good last night. Hopefully Luke’s injury isn’t too serious and we can go take the game back in LA Friday. |
When I went to bed last night the Bucks were only up a few in the 3rd and I thought man they could actually lose this game and series. I posted a couple pages back that I felt confidant that they could get to a Game 7 but I was wrong. Props to Jimmie and the Heat. This should finally get Coach Bud fired I would think.
In regards to GS, awesome team win and find it funny that KCC favorite person Barry is whining about missed 3's. I guess he doesn't really watch the NBA as this happens on a regular basis. The Kings set a team record in the 1st quarter with 9 then went cold. Shit happens all the time and vice versa. Seen Curry and Klay go for 2-15\20 individually several times. I remember that Game 7 vs Houston and the Rockets missed like 40 3's in the blowout loss. 3 point shooting is so streaky. But the refs kept the Kings in the game even with Draymond getting blatantly hit in the head on a layup. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Prior to the late Steph and 1, the Kings had 0 fouls in the 4th quarter.<br><br>A team has recorded 0 fouls in a 4th quarter just THREE times in the last NINE YEARS in the postseason. <a href="https://t.co/yAwFz7lGA0">https://t.co/yAwFz7lGA0</a></p>— WarriorsMuse (@WarriorsMuse) <a href="https://twitter.com/WarriorsMuse/status/1651455762810671104?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 27, 2023</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> |
I ****ing love that answer by Giannis BUT for sports we seem to deem not winning a championship as a failure especially for the top teams. It is what is and I have been guilty of that as anyone.
