    Fuck Harden and the horse he rode in on. He should be voted Most Likely NBA Player to build a beaver dam and then fall off it half way through to try and collect two weeks of workers compensation.

    :pray:

    I'd take Kawhi over Harden every day of the week and twice on Sundays. He's getting penalized because he's not as ball dominant as Harden, and therefore doesn't pile up many of the ancillary stats. Popovich would never let a Harden type exist on his team. It might get you to the Playoffs, but nowhere near the finish line.

    Westbrook has been doing what he does out of necessity, because his supporting cast is basura. Houston has one of the deeper teams in the league, but you'd never know it with all the Harden cock-sucking going around.

    When Westbrook is on the floor, OKC generally outscores it's opponents while OKC gets plastered when he's off the floor. When Harden is on the floor it's generally an even trade off, and then bench strength is the difference between winning and losing games for Houston. Shit, just check the +/- stats from game to game for Houston and it's pretty obvious.

    In Harden's defense (no pun intended), and I really hate defending Harden.... Kawhi doesn't the ABILITY to be as ball dominant as Harden. The ugly bearded fuck is a much better ball handler than Kawhi and a much better passer/playmaker.

    Having said that, of course I like Kawhi's game a lot more than Harden's.

    Of course you're right, but I would never let that get in the way of my Harden hate. :lol:

    But seriously. Rigondeaux by a country mile. At least he suffers for his sport. Unlike The H.M.S Queen James The H, whose sport suffers for him, every time he flops over on his side.

    i was taking a look at the games westbrook has had triple doubles. 3 times against utah, twice against memphis and once against the spurs, cavs and wizards. 8 games against what id consider good teams where he had a triple double and the thunder won.

    Still not too bad.

    But yes, teams with completely ball dominant centerpieces will get more easily shut down by better teams. That's why I don't see either OKC or Houston going very far in the playoffs. Houston conceivably should go further then OKC simply because they are a better team.

    A team like San Antonio clamps down on Westbrook in a playoff situation...who else is he going to go to? Oladipo? :lol:

    Yeah, but for his Career, Westbrook's Recorded @ Least 1 Triple Double Against Every Team but Chicago...He Also Tabulated 13 Triple Doubles in Just 3 Quarters...

    And it's NOT Like Dude is Getting MINIMALIST (10, 10 and 10) Triple Doubles, Either...Leading the League in Scoring, 3rd in Assists, 10th in Rebounding...Shortest Guy to EVER Average Double Digit Rebounds, on Top of That...

    NBA PLAYOFS...


    Eastern Conference

    1st Round

    Boston vs. Chicago - Boston in 7...Chicago May LEAD This Series @ Some Point, but the Defensive Play of Boston's Perimeter Players Will WEAR on Wade/Rondo Over the Loooooong Haul, and Boston Wins this Marathon of a Series...

    Washington vs Atlanta - Washington in 6...REED's Tempted to Pick Washington in 5, as he Expects this to Be a STATEMENT Series for the Wizards...They're Younger, Hungrier and BETTER than Atlanta and the Backcourt Battle will Be a Mismatch...

    Toronto vs. Milwaukee - Toronto in 6...This COULD Be the Greek Freak's Coming Out Party, His Time to Showcase his Talents on the PLAYOFF Stage...While he Just MIGHT Be Good Enough to Win This Series for Milwaukee, the SAFE Pick is Toronto in 6...

    Cleveland vs. Indiana - Cleveland in 6...NOT the Best 1st Round Matchup for the Cavs, All Things Considered...Ultimately, Bron WILL Outduel Paul George and Cleveland's Supporting Cast WILL Outduel That of Indy...


    Conference Semi-Finals

    Boston vs. Washington - Washington in 6 - Despite the Prowess of Boston's Perimeter Defenders, Wall and Beal Will Prove to Be a Bit Tooooooo Much...They WON'T Be Able to Consistently STOP Wall and Beal from Scoring, AND they Won't Be Able to Score WITH Wall and Beal, on the Other End of the Floor...

    Cleveland vs. Toronto - Cleveland in 6...Maybe Even 5...Easier Series than Indy Will Be...Toronto Has a "Big Brother Complex", Pertaining to Cleveland, And Until Bron has NOTICEABLY Declined, They Always Will...


    Eastern Conference Finals

    Cleveland vs. Washington - Cleveland in 7...These Two Made for One of THE Most Entertaining Games of the 2016-17 Season, and the Series Will Be MEMORABLE As Well...We'll Need to See 30pt, Triple Double Bron the Majority of this Series, and John Wall will Come VERY Hard @ Kyrie Irving, w/the Eyes of the Basketball Woooooorld Paying Attention...

    Home Court Advantage Will Prove to be the (Slight)Edge and a LEGITIMATE Yearly Threat to Bron's Stranglehold on the Conference Will Have Emerged...

    Western Conference


    Golden State vs. Portland - Golden State in 6...Dame Dollar's Worth a "W" By Himself, and the New "Big 3" of Him, McCollum and Nurkic Might Be Enough for More...Nurkic Could REALLY Pose Problems for the Dubs Down Low, and w/Durant Still WORKING his Way Back to his Norm, he Probably Won't Be Near as Effective on the Boards and Blocking Shots, as he's Been All Season...

    That Being Said, it's NOT Near Enough to Make Portland a Live Dog or Anything and They'll Succumb to the Superior Squad...

    Los Angeles vs. Utah - Los Angeles in 6...Will Be VERY Interesting Watching Rudy Gobert COEXIST w/DeAndre Jordan and Blake Griffin...This is IT for the Clippers and Probably Just the BEGINNING for Utah, Which Will Prove to Be the Difference...Gordon Hayward Would Have to Be SPECIAL to Pull This Series Out of his Ass for Utah, and he's NOT Quite There Yet, If Ever...

    Houston vs. Oklahoma City - OKC in 7 - For the M.V.P. Championship of the Wooooooooorld!!!...Worse Thing You Could Do is Put Russell Westbrook in a Head to Head Comparison/Series w/his CHIEF MVP Rival...Statistically, Westbrook's SHITTED on James Harden, Just About Every Time They've Played This Year...But Harden's Got Like a 2-1, 3-1 Edge on the Scoreboard...

    Westbrook WON'T Allow That, in Yet Another SHOW and PROVE Occasion...

    San Antonio vs Memphis - San Antonio in 5...Workmanlike, Business Minded Dissection by the Spurs and an Opportunity to REST...


    Semi Finals

    Golden State vs. Los Angeles - Golden State in 6...End of the Road for the Clippers...Earlier This Season, REED THOUGHT their Size just MIGHT Give Golden State Some Problems...But Having Watched the Warriors DRILL the Clippers, Repeatedly, it's Clear Who the Better Team is...The Clippers have BARELY Been Competitive with the Dubs, in Most Games...The Clippers are BEST in Uptempo Games, Which is the Warriors Forte, Which is Why they're a Consistently BAD Matchup for Los Angeles...

    REED's Being GENEROUS, Affording the Clippers 2 Wins in this Series, Because he's Expecting them to Go Down Swinging, KNOWING They'll Be Disassembled This Summer...

    San Antonio vs Oklahoma City - San Antonio in 5...WORST Possible Matchup for Westbrook, from an EFFICIENCY Point of View...Spurs Roll and Continue to Rest...

    Golden State vs. San Antonio - Golden State in 7...PAINFULLY, REED is Backtracking from his Prediction of Golden State NOT Making it to the 2017 Finals...REED was Banking on the Clippers EXTENDING the Warriors in the Semi-Finals, but they WON'T...Durant's Injury Actually ALLOWED Steph Time to Rediscover Himself, and By THIS Point of the Playoffs, Durant Will Be In Pre-Injury Form...

    REED Is Hoping and PRAYING he's Wrong, but He Now Sees the Warriors Being as POTENT as They've Been All Season, Advancing to the Finals for the 3rd Straight Season...

    Phil Jackson has devolved into a fuckin' cartoon character. He's the definition of a guy who loves to smell his own shit. Somebody should shit in his mouth every time he says the word "triangle".

    If he wants to continue his slavish fawning over the triangle he should have coached the team himself. He's hiding behind his head coach and Dolan is hiding behind him. NYK franchise is fucked for along time.

    What's Funny About That Statement is Phil Jackson is the One that GAVE 'Melo that No Trade Clause...Says a LOT about Jackson the GM, that he's Making Comments as Such, LESS than a Year Later...

    No Doubt...

    Chicago Advanced to the Eastern Conference Finals the Year PRIOR to Phil Jackson Taking Over as Head Coach...Doug Collins was More DEMANDING, so Phil's SOFTER Approach was Favored...Coupled w/the Natural Evolution of Jordan and Pippen's Games and Tex Winter's Triangle Offense, Voila', Championships Start Rolling In...

    Phil Jackson is the Quintessential "Right Place, Right Time" Story and Yes, the Shit has OBVIOUSLY Gone to his Head...REED's NEVER Put Jackson on the Same Level as a Pat Riley or a Gregg Poppovich, but the Media ASSISTED Phil in Developing an OVERINFLATED Opinion of Himself...

    Even Though he WASN'T Being Racist, Phil WAS Being Condescending w/the Whole "Posse" Remark in Regards to Bron...EGO...Putting 'Melo On Blast Like This, In PUBLIC???...EGO...

    REED's THOROUGHLY Enjoying Watching Jackson SQUIRM, as he's Finding Basketball Life to Be QUITE Difficult, Sans Jordan, Pippen, Shaq and Kobe...

    Never Understood WHY a Coach Forces a SYSTEM Down the Throats of a Team...

    If Your Personnel FITS that System, By All Means PROCEED...But More than Likely, Every System WON'T Fit Every Team...A REAL Coach Adjusts, Tweaks and even Disregards a Particular System, if it Doesn't Mesh w/His Personnel...

    But Phil Jackson ISN'T Nearly Creative Enough to Go OUTSIDE of the Tex Winter Created System he Clings To...

    Paul and Griffin Played MORE than Well Enough for the Clippers to Win, Last Night...

    What's Disturbing is Rudy Gobert Played Mere SECONDS, yet Utah Still WON...Utah's BENCH Shit Kicked the Clippers Bench...That's the Story of Game 1...

    Knowing Utah's a VERY Tough Place to Play, Game 2 is Already MUST WIN for the Clippers...

    griffin is a fagget. same old story. he wouldve been scoreless in the fourth quarter if not for getting fouled at half court for his 2 free throws.

    how is that team ever supposed to do anything when the guy who is supposed to be the workhorse disappears every single time when the game is on the line and leaves it up to a 5'10 guy to carry the team.

    Raptors, Celtics, and Clippers are all in must-win games tonight. The most pressure is on the Clippers. If they can't beat the Jazz without Gobert again, and go down 0-2, then the Paul/Griffin/Jordan/Doc era is officially over... which would be totally fine by me. Five whiney faggots... headed by their overrated loser point guard.
