OKC announcers just called that pass by WB last game "Play of the Decade." And ppl call Rox announcers insufferable homers.
Good news: no triple double for Westbrook Bad news: Thunder are the 5 seed, when Clippers lose to Cavs
Lol. So the cave are sitting the big 3 tonight? 2 weeks in a row the ABC prime time game has teams resting players. Why not just rest them tomorrow night at Lakers. The lakers are not trying to win.
Can't wait to hear JVG. Ty Lue(per Lisa Salters): Love played Thursday; plan all along was 2-3 days rest between games. He will play against Lakers. Kyrie - tightness in his knee. They''ll give him an extra day; will play against LA. LeBron was not happy to find out he'll be sitting. Cavs want the big three on the court at the same time. If LeBron played tonight, he wouldn't play tomorrow. They want them all on the floor at the same time so it has meaning down the stretch. Jalen: It became acceptable when we judged the final result & how many championships they won. This is cheating the fans, cheating the game. ...
Jalen: After this season, you won't have this core together. You try to re-sign Chris Paul. Griffin - you decide if you can get someone better in return. I think he returns. J.J. Redick, he sounds like a player who knows it's his last year with this team. Wilbon I think back to the 3-1 lead vs. Houston, conference finals vs. Golden State on the horizon. Since then, you've had injuries. ... You can't give them any benefit of the doubt.
JVG: If this was any other business, it would be a prosecutable offense. This is a bait & switch maneuver the NBA allows its teams to pull.
Makes me wonder if some players/coaches have an ax to grind against ABC. It almost appears conspiratorial. ABC/ESPN paid good money to the NBA and this has to chap them pretty badly. The next round of TV contracts will undoubtedly decline in revenue. It's just a matter of how much.
HAHAHAHAHA ^^^^ JVG with the shout out to Keith Jones. Give me old Knicks trainer Mike Saunders & Keith Jones and I'll be fine. They'll give you the real deal.
