😂😂😂 According to Bill Simmons your titles are fluky if you can't defend them or if you don't go on a long run afterwards. The last five NBA champions have been fugazi in his eyes

I don't think any title is worried about Colorado but it is a highly entertaining side show. Who doesn't like watching the circus?

Minnesota has much better defensive personnel than the Lakers but they also have much better coaching. They have an actual game plan for what they want to do to Jokic

It always amazes me the difference between the level of defense in the regular season playoffs. I can understand players playing much harder in the playoffs as opposed to the regular season but what I don't understand is why the game is officiated different. The referees allow teams to play...

You make a very good point here. For basically 40 years of NBA basketball we got used to seeing teams repeat as champions or at least go to the finals year after year: - Lakers and Celtics in the '80s - Jordans Bulls in the '90s - Hakeem's Rockets going back to back in the '90s - Kobe and...

I said historically lucky from from a seeding perspective. Actually, when you look it up the 2023 nuggets literally did have the easiest run to a title in over 40 years: They went out there and they got it done, years from now nobody is going to ask about who they played or how they did it...

Not trying to call them frauds or religislate their championship but Denver going 8 seed > 4 seed > 7 seed > 8 seed to win a title really is wild when you look back at it. That has to be the luckiest draw ever from a seeding standpoint, right?

It's going to be interesting to see how the "Jokic doesn't care about basketball" shtick comes across when they're not winning.

I'm just happy that Mike Malone's arrogant, pompous behind is finally getting what he deserves. Talking all that smack during last year's playoff run we only to get washed at home

Hilarious video of a Tennessee radio show saying Kirby is overpaid because there are 10 coaches who could win multiple national championships at Georgia. These coaches include: Lane Kiffin Mark Stoops Dabo Sark Deboer James Franklin Dan Lanning Brian Kelly I don't agree but It's an...

I'm confused on the point you are trying to make. Your original argument was "LeBron isn't worth a max contract" and now your argument is "LeBron isn't as good as he was in his prime". You seem to have pivoted from your "$15M/year, 4th option" talk. LeBron is one of the top 2 greatest players...

ADVERTISEMENT LeBron was literally top 10 in box plus minus this season, top 10 in VORP. It's not just his accountant stats, like I said earlier by most advanced matrix LeBron is still a top 10 player. If you're rationale is that "LeBron isn't prime, GOAT level LeBron then he isn't worth the...

LeBron is coming off the season where he played 71 games, will likely be 2nd team all-NBA averaging 26/7/8 on high efficiency, shot 40% from three and is a top 10 player in most advanced metrics... and you're asking this player to make $15M and be a fourth option? I'm sure that every team in...

All that money for a .500 coach 😂

As much as some college football fans like to talk about X's and O's, grit, determination and hard work, college football is about Jimmy's and Joe's. There's a direct correlation between having highly ranked players and winning games on the field. The more of those talented players you have...

Watching this Minnesota versus Denver game makes me even more frustrated about our series. Like I mentioned last week, Denver never came across like they are some unstoppable juggernaut team that cannot be beaten. If the Lakers were 2% better they either extend the series to seven games or...
