No wonder Harden gets tired. He falls down on every play! That's gotta take it out of you.

I'm rooting for Denver. Had said this before that I liked a comment that between the Warriors and Lakers someone said he hoped they both lost. I'm still hurting from our loss to Golden State last year and it was Curry specifically who did it. But this year I believe we'd had our revenge with Brogdon and White playing better. Living in this area I do root for the Warriors when it doesn't affect the Celtics. And especially against the Lakers whom I hated long before LeBron. Yup, we need get by Miami and Butler is a tough obstacle. But, if so, I fear the Lakers. Davis is as good as Embiid around the net and perimeter shots but LeBron on 3s is excellent and can bully drive to the net without getting fouled & make a layup. We can't concentrate on guarding both as we did only with Embiid. My worst nightmare would be LeBron beating us again as he did with Cleveland and Miami. If so, I would not be happy with our championship only in the East. Yeah, a lot of valid points...bummed that the Warriors did not take out the Lakers...and yeah, good luck beating them in the finals, cuz yep, LeBron can do whatever the heck he wants and not get called on it...I hope he or AD breaks an ankle in the next week...

Exactly...LeBron just cries and gets his way all game long...prick...effing NBA and bogus officiating...

I love how JB called out Scott Foster by name in his post game interview, saying that Scott T-d him up before even assessing the situation... A player on the bench grabs your knee!!!! and then you get T-d up...wth?...

STOP it. you should enjoy seeing one of the best players to ever play instead of being filled with envy. I've never understood the LeBron hate ( except when he beats ones favorite team), the guy has played 20 years at a level few others could only hope ( and NONE at his age) and has NEVER had an legal/ social issues even though he was only 18YO when turned pro. I can think of no controversy's he's ever been in off the court, to be honest. And he appears to be a family man on top of it all. Just stop and try to enjoy watching greatness , even if you always secretly wanted him on your team.

My analyst sez that I have secretly wanted LBJ to follow in MJ's footsteps, quitting the NBA and pursuing a career in another sport, in this case, the NFL as a tight end with my hapless R'skins.
That would seem to be his more natural talent and position.

yeah, I am not going to root for the C's to have the easiest path. either team presents their own set of challenges. Nug's or Lakers, may the better team win (might be the Heat). I am not afraid of LBJ. I know the C's are not either. should be a great series against the Heat. my wish is for the C's to win in 5 or 6, and the West series go 7. let the C's get some additional rest/healing

It should be interesting to see Jokic vs AD. I really don't know who will win this series, unless the refs just take it over.

I think the nba is starting to gear up for Lakers/Celtics

The Nugs have been good all year. If teams didn't help the Lakers at the deadline (still think it's a conspiracy), then they wouldn't even be here........ "Malik Beasley, Jarred Vanderbilt, D'Angelo Russell, Mo Bamba and Davon Reed were added to the Lakers' roster within 24 hours of the trade deadline. Russell Westbrook, Patrick Beverley and Thomas Bryant were traded off the Lakers' roster as part of three separate trades.
The Lakers made the first notable trade of the 2022-2023 season when they acquired Rui Hachimura from the Washington Wizards on Jan. 23. Los Angeles sent Washington Kendrick Nunn and three second-round draft picks in the deal."
WOW - that's two starters and two rotation players.
Anyway, the Nugs had the best record in the West all year. And, yeah, LeBron is great....but it's still the Lakers!!
Go Nuggets!!

Pud Awesome...exactly...he should be a tight end in the NFL... Most referee enabled player in history...hard to defend against a guy who is allowed to barrel down the lane at will... I will however give him a gold star sticker on his forehead for being a good dad and staying out of trouble...

Talking about "bring it home", did Kraft have a "happy ending"...
.... in his taped "massage-gate" session?

If the "fix" is already in, don't be a spoiler.
I prefer the suspense of not knowing the outcome until after the final horn sounds.
Thank you....

I was going to say something about he was headed out to the Chinese massage, but I figured someone else would do it better. I'll let Pud take the low road...
