I hate KG but that commercial is really awesome. It used to play every commercial break on LPBB last year and I've probably seen it 500+ times but I still love watching it.

I'll assume this is a joke.

Cavs gave up with 50 seconds left down 9 is a complete embarassment to the league, that was just awful how they did that. And then Mo Williams walking up the court with the ball, disgusting.

Foul, maybe down 10. Score a 3 down 7 with like 40 seconds left.

Foul, maybe boston goes 1/2 again, down 8, come back and shoot another 3 you're down 5 with like 28 seconds.

Not impossible to come back from down 9.

There was no reason for Cleveland to foul. That game was 100% over.

I know I'm super late on this, but that New York Knicks chant was epically awesome.

If the Heat signed Lebron first, then other players while remaining under the cap, could they then sign Wade going over the cap legally, or do the rules prevent against this sort of loop-holing?

Anyone know anything about the Cap dropping next season, along with player salaries?

I vaguely remember David Stern talking about this (on PTI or maybe it was just on NBAtv, I forget) and he mentioned something like 10-18% decrease. I'm assuming that couldn't be the Salary Cap, so is it possible for decreases in player salaries of up too 18%?

No loophole, there is a cap hold until the Heat renounce Wade's rights or he signs with another team.

Yeah neat commercial. I sense high WIM. We all know who clearly does not have high WIM.

wow what a series.

Is Rondo going to torch Jameer next series or is D12 going to be too big of a help D factor. If I'm Doc I think I'd want Rondo going to the rim non-stop early in the game to see if D12 picks up 2 dumb fouls

Unpossible to make up 3 possessions in under a minute. Game was 100% over.

If I was coaching kids I'd use KG a lot as evidence of a player with heart.

yea we are only 1-3 vs them this season but 2 of those games were with kg coming right back from injury

but the past 3 years we have owned the magic when our team has been healthy, betting the celtics at +250 or w/e the line is def +ev (real line should be around even)

people being way too assertive with predictions. "the past 3 years we have owned the magic when our team has been healthy", this is not the same Magic of last year, let alone 3 years ago. And maybe VC will superstar with Ray Allen trying to stop him, who knows? I honestly wouldn't be surprised by any result.
