    I disagree with SAS. I admire PR for how he stands up to all the entitled players throwing their weight around and abusing their power. It may be time for Riley to hang em up but I'd base that more on his age then him somehow being wrong in the way he handles players and runs the organization.

    Playoff Murray showed up for Denver, Too bad for the Clippers that playoff Harden finally showed up too. I knew he'd fall off sooner or later.

    Very good game from Westbrook too.

    Isn't playoff Murray better than playoff Jimmy? Murray has a better more consistent track record than Jimmy I do believe. Plus Murray has actually won a couple chips.

    Sorry, But When You're Depriving a GROWN Ass Man, Your STAR Player of His Favorite Team Flight Snack, That's Bordering On ABUSE of Power Bruh...When WARRANTED, Sure, Stand Up to Your Players...But Don't Be Petty, LOOKING for Reasons to FLEX On Them...

    Just as "Heat Culture" is a TIRED Ass Narrative, So is Riley "Standing Up" to His Players...

    REED Ain't Saying it's Time for Riley to Go, But His STYLE of Leadership is Definitely Archaic...In Riley's Defense, he Just Turned 80 Last Month...Bottom Line, Today's NBA is Collaborative...The "Shut Up and DO What I Say" Approach is Played Out...

    Better SCORER, Undoubtedly...Jimmy's Game is More SUBTLE...Little to No SPLASH Plays or Sportscenter Highlights from Jimmy, Just All Around, 2-Way Production...

    Because of Murray's INJURY History, REED Thinks Jimmy's More Consistent...Jimmy's DRAGGED 2 Heat Teams to the Finals, That Had NOfuckingBUSINESS Being There...

    Not in the playoffs. In the regular season maybe, but so far he's looking like not a playoff player.

    That whole situation wasn't about no cookies being taken off the plane. Yeah that would suck obviously but the bigger issue was PR not wanting to overpay Jimmy for past performances and handcuff the Heat's future, particularly with the new cap restrictions. For as much heat (pun intended) as PR's gotten over the Butler situation he will undoubtedly be shown to have made the right decision regardless of what happens in Golden State. Riley has shown more balls than any other GM I can think of, and remember he did the same thing with Wade.

    Riley allowing Wade to ever wear another teams jersey is a mark against him in my estimation. If a man delivers 3 titles, you make sure he’s taken care of for his whole career.

    The Cookie Issue REED's Referring to Involved LeBron in His 4th and Final Season in Miami, Not Jimmy Butler...Mind You, the Heat Went to the Finals EVERY Year Bron was There & Won Back to Back Championships in the Midst of That...

    Nonetheless, Pat Riley was Compelled to SWEAT LeBron Over Some Fucking Cookies...DWade Said He Knew RIGHT THEN, Bron Wouldn't Be Returning to the Heat After His Contract was Up...

    That's Abuse and MISUSE of Power...

    If Memory Serves, the Difference Ended Up Being Around $3mil...DWade Asked for $15m, Riley Wasn't Budging Off $12mil..."Heat Culture" Should've EATEN the $3mil, Unquestionably...

    Nikola Jokic says Clippers-Nuggets is the best series of the first round: “If you like basketball, like a real fan not a fake fan of basketball, these are the games you should watch.”

    Best ankle breaker in Knicks history. One of the proudest moments in Knicks history.

    Jokic may be the best player in the league but Zubac owns his ass. Jokic actually seems like he's scared of Zubac. Obviously Jokic was tired tonight from heavy minutes and it probably affected his play because he was terrible. It was the worst game I've seen him play.

    Clippers SHOULD win this series as they actually play well on both ends of the floor unlike Denver whom is terrible on defense. It looks like all Clippers have to do is attack the basket and Denver has no answer. Only way Clippers will lose game 7 is if some of them don't show up to play like in game 5.

    Clippers have the deeper more experienced team, they have a much better defense and they even have the neutralizer of Denver's best weapon in Jokic: Zubac.

    No team as young as OKC has ever sniffed a Larry O'Brien, and they have given me no reason to think in my mind that they're going to do so after the inexperience showed in crunch time

    If Holmgren doesn't go to Fatburger and get himself a double cheese with fries for $2.95 the Joker will just run him over throughout the series
