    Sorry, I don´t know what low profile team you talking about.

    My team is Twenty-ONE to Four, winners of TEN straight.

    And yeah, I´m still calm.

    Michelle beadle legitimately has gone off topic twice on espn to hate on the Rockets.

    A spurs fans insecurity.

    I just saw this as well. The hate is so strong with her. I want the Spurs in the playoffs just to crush her soul.

    It's amusing to see Spurs fans try to convince themselves that this Rockets team is the same one that lost to them in the playoffs last year.

    This is easily a top 20 all time team, IMO.

    Edit (adding this above as well as below because the middle is my venom): That was a good article. I shouldn't have watched that video, it distracted me from good writing. That was foolish of me. Journalism isn't dead, but the TV news networks might be. There are probably enough people on this board with enough skills to run a national sports news tv show in an honest way if we pooled our skills. Financing is another thing... maybe you have to lie for financing?

    This is the video attached to the first link. I couldn't help but watch it before I started reading the piece. The lady said that she's never seen anyone sulk like Okafor did after he was drafted. I thought I should take a look to see this. I searched "jahlil okafor draft night" and watched the video... there's nothing there. Media folks are such ****ing liars man... do your research and back it up like you'd have to in a fight. They all talk like they're in a fight, but back absolutely nothing up sometimes... It's like watching someone getting paid to sleep on the job. How are these professional organizations? Who checks any of these 'facts' that are presented?

    I can't stand this "fake news" movement... but this is the type of journalism that people point to.

    Anyway... I'll read the actual article here soon, but I got distracted by a pile of **** that I found on my way to the article.

    Lol, not easily. They are good but a better one resides in the same conference. I believe they can beat them if they stay healthy though.

    The Warriors are top 5 all time, IMO. We are witnessing some truly amazing teams in this era of the NBA.
