    It's even scarier to think about if Boston trades Kyrie for Kawhi and Boston gets LeBron via opt in and trade for Hayward. Their back court depth is legit even with losing Smart who wants to get paid. Even if Kawhi is out of the question and Ainge wants to keep Hayward, you can move Kyrie for more young pieces and picks. If you're Phoenix, would you consider pairing Kyrie with Booker and hope that becomes Splash Bros 2.0? I'm sure the #1 pick is too valuable and they'd ask for J.Brown in return too though. Knicks with the #9 pick and future 1st/Ntilikina because Kristaps wants to win now? Memphis for Marc Gasol if they find a way to move Conley to pair Kyrie with their #4 pick and keep Tyreke?

    Lots of options out there and a good spot to be in if your'e Boston. All that said, i think the Kyrie/Bron beef is overblown and they would be cool playing together again.

    What a depressing way to end the season with Golden State celebrating the title in Game 4 halfway through the 4th. Screw those guys.

    Now I can proudly state that for the first time since 1980 I didn't watch one second of the NBA finals.

    Yeah, y'all tots want this guy in Rockets' red. M'kay. I'm down but it'd be rough as hell along the way.

    It's only fitting. Adam Silver now has his own 2002. He rigged the WCF which ended with the league's golden boys winning Game 7 on the road and then sweeping the Finals for their 3rd title.

    My analogy is sort of an Avengers Infinity War spoiler so I’ll hide it (it’s been out long enough but just in case)...

    The GSW winning tonight feels like the ending to Avengers Infinity War: it was just as easy as them snapping their fingers.

    I hope the 18-19 NBA⁠ ⁠season is more like what happens during the comic sequel to the Infinity War storyline (probably movie too): GSW’s reign ends.

    They don't even seem that excited about it. This is how you feel when you beat a game on easy,

    LeBron is gonna take a back seat to Paul when it comes to kicking and screaming.

    We already got our General. We just need a tactical nuke we can drop on the Warriors and obliterate them.

    The media is just compensating for the fact that Durant has zero chance of winning the regular season MVP ever again as long as he is on a Golden State roster with a fellow potential HOFer and two other All-Stars. Durant probably won’t feel that great in a few days once he sees people continue to rip him. How long before the burner accounts return I wonder?

    Haha. I was curious what was happening but didn't want to turn it on because I don't know how they calculate ratings. I wanted to make damn sure I was not mistakingly counted as a viewer. ;)

    I hope nobody outside of CA watched that crap.
