Throughout the playoffs I've been absolutely certain that the Cavs defense will eventually come back to haunt them, but I no longer think that due to my onset irrational hatred of the Celtics, stoked by their flagrantly illegal carrying techniques and the frightening basketball prowess of a gangly goat man. As a result, simple logic dictates that Boston will hit 75% of their threes en route to a 5-game win over Cleveland

It Just Makes Sense

I refuse to believe any team loses two playoff home games to the Bulls and needs an injury to 2017 Rajon Rondo to survive that round stands a chance in hell against Lebron.

I haven't seen so much screaming at refs (Draymond) without a double T since LBJ and Wade in the 2011, 2012 years.

The six 9-0 playoff teams and their MOV through that period:

code:
Tm	Season	MOV
GSW	2016-17	134
CLE	2015-16	115
SAS	2011-12	113
LAL	2000-01	102
LAL	1981-82	93
LAL	1988-89	90
Mike Brown is a genius.

Those are awful and it's goddamn incredible that the NBA is resorting to that trash. Style counts in the NBA IMO. Just raise the loving prices on a hotdog or some poo poo to make up whatever pittance companies are paying for that poo poo.

Warriors already charge $25 for a hotdog. We're looking at $100 hotdogs here.

In that timeline Draymond tries to kick Kelly in the dick and Kelly rips off his leg. (and then falls over when the refs notice what is going on)

Here are some stills from the spurs subreddit to demonstrate just how hard Zaza tried to get under Kawhi.

I've never really thought about it but that's really smart to turn your foot perpendicular to the player. It's practically impossible to bring your foot down safely in that case.
