Kevin Durant put the dagger into the Clippers. Clippers aren't that good and I love it. Jordan came back and it still doesn't matter. They are nowhere near as good as the Warriors, Spurs, or Thunder.

What's really sad is, the league/Stern ruined our team. They wanted to make a team like Clippers relevant so they nixed our CP3 deal and allowed CP3 to go there. Well that back fired on the league because even with a stacked team the Clippers are and have been just a Good team at best, never have made a Final 4 with all the gifts they have been given like picking up any player they want and being able to recently retain Jordan. The league ruined the greatest franchise ever to make another relevant probably thinking it would be cool. It has got them nowhere. Clippers aren't winning jack shit so I hope the league is proud of what they have done. The league isn't near as great or fun to watch when the Lakers are bad. Had we got CP3, I think many other players would've came here by now as well. Yes I am bitter over it but speak the truth! I have never seen any team in NBA history get fucked over like we did regarding that nix. It should've been investigated in all honesty.

If you go by real recent history = last 3 seasons, the only relevant teams in Basketball and Football would be:
The Heat/Spurs/Warriors all won an NBA Championship. Cavs have won a Conference Championship. The Pacers, Hawks, Grizzlies, Thunder, and Rockets all have made at least 1 Conference Championship Final.
-In Football = The Ravens/Seahawks/Patriots all won a SB. 49ers and Broncos have won a Conference Championship. The Colts, Falcons, and Packers all have made at least 1 Conference Championship Game. Just going by how 90% of fans think If you don't go deep in the Playoffs or win a Championship hardly nobody takes a team serious. Moral to this story, where are the Clippers with CP3, Blake, and Jordan over the last 3 seasons? Shit even Howard has made a Final 4, even the Podunk Pacers and Colts have made one too

I would actually think the Hawks making a Final 4 would have to make CP3 sick, out of all of those Basketball and Football teams the Hawks are the worse They even made one for Christ sake! and the Clippers haven't with a loaded lineup the last 3 seasons.

Watching that game yesterday between the Warriors and Cavs I never once thought the Warriors would lose. That is a scary team folks! Cavs had everybody healthy too including Kyrie. They should've never traded Wiggins, that may go down as one of the worst trades ever after people look back on it in a few years. If the Cavs had Wiggins instead of Love they would be pretty even with the Warriors and Spurs. Wiggins can guard guys like Klay and Leonard + he is athletic going to the basket. I cant believe people actually thought trading Wiggins for Love was the right thing to do. IMO, it's one of the worst trades ever and I said it when it happened. Hell the Cavs don't even need Love, they have T. Thompson for Rebounding. Serves Dan Gilbert right for trying to buy a team, he outsmarted himself. Cavs aren't winning no Title with teams like the Warriors and Spurs coming out of the West.

Blazers are up 93-63 over the Cavs and the Cavs have everyone playing except Kyrie. I just don't see the Cavs being able to beat the teams out West if they do make it back to the Finals. I think the Warriors, Spurs, and Thunder would manhandle this Cavs team in a series, JMO. LeBron probably should get his due and be labeled a Top 10 player ever, he has won 4 League MVP's but his 2 Championships were due to leaving the Cavs to join Wade and Bosh. I mean really, how can anyone think he is a Top 5 player at this point of all-time? I still would take Larry Bird over him anyday in my rankings. I would take Shaq and Duncan as well. Top 5 all-time should be Jordan/Magic/Kareem/Wilt/Kobe. Shaq/Duncan/B.Russell/Bird are easily the next 4 IN ANY ORDER YOU WANT TO PUT THEM. LeBron at 10 is about right. As of now Curry is the best player in the league and I would take him over LeBron if you are going by just today. I think Durant is better now too over LeBron.

Yep . . Cleveland natives are realizing that they will have to add yet another slap in the face to their ugly sports legacy - LeBron will never win a title for them. He's hit his peak, he's likely past his peak, the injuries from so many games played will start to pile up, and teams like the Bulls and Raptors will continue to get better and present bigger challenges.

Serves him right. He should not be ranked above Kobe, or Duncan for that matter. Or Bird. Or maybe even Shaq.

I agree Rev. I give him Top 10 all-time. Great talent, a couple of Titles, and 4 League MVP's but unless he wins a Title in Cleveland no way is he Top 5. Anyone that's Great can win a Title with Wade, Bosh, and Allen. They had an all-star team. They even should've lost to the Spurs in 2013, Bron got super lucky to get that 2nd ring. They will probably still win the East but how bad is it going to look when they get thumped by either the Warriors, Spurs, or Thunder. That would put Bron 2-5 in Finals! Meanwhile Kobe 5-2, Duncan 5-1, Shaq 4-2, Peacock is even 3-2 LOL. I understand it's not 1 man but the team Bron has now in Cleveland isn't chopped liver. He has pretty good talent around him.

Nuggets lead in OT over Warriors 104-102. Man without Curry this team is average.

[3Peatkb24]

Nice take by Green, Warriors tie it. What a game!

[3Peatkb24]

Klay puts Warriors up 110-108 with 15 seconds left. Nuggets have a chance to either win it or tie it. I would go for the win, fuck it

[3Peatkb24]

Warriors win 111-108. Nuggets should've just went for the win when they had the ball with 15 seconds left. Bunch of wimps! I am glad the Warriors won though because I want them to beat the Bulls record. Get well Steph as you are my best player on my Fantasy team!

What about him stinking doesn't he exactly understand?
