  1. This is the closest. 1. OKC/Denver -- they've actually won the whole thing 1A. Houston 2. Minny, Clips, Mavs (if healthy), maybe the Spurs. (I think SA surprises some people this year 3. Lakers, GS. Both rosters have 2-3 good players and not much else. Churn after that. I don't think you'll see as much separation between the 1 seed and the rest of the pack. OKC was ahead of #2 by what, 14 games? 2-6 were pretty glommed up. I think 1-3 will be family close and then you'll have the 4-8 teams. That makes that #1 seed very valuable. Say OKC is #1 and they wouldn't have to play either Denver or Houston until the WCF and then only one of them.
  2. Which ones so I can do my own research?
  3. He might have owed money to the wrong people, if you get my drift.
  4. And Jerry bought the Cowboys for what and they’re worth $15B?
  5. $285M in….Oklahoma City.
  6. I'm no basketball savant (obviously) but the first time I saw him play in person, I'm like "How the fuck did he fall to 12 in the draft?" Instant NBA body, huge wingspan, three level scorer, solid on defense (later became great). He's basically Pippen or Kawhi.
  7. He's not even a starter anymore and averaged 7 ppg in the playoffs. That's a terrible deal but hey, good for him.
  8. OKC mayor in 2019...
  9. This one makes my allergies flare up:
  10. I know I'm the only one here who watched the parade but the actual parade itself was about an hour and a half of pure joy. Something like 600K people showed up and the players got out and walked most of the way and interacted with the fans. This was my favorite:
  11. The best pic. They weren't even alive then but they knew they completed the circle:
  12. There in the arena, there was a weird vibe after Halliburton went down. Literally everyone knew he was done, even without the benefit of instant replay. I thought they'd get blown out after that but Indy played hard and played well. OKC was kind of taken off guard but they came out in the 3rd dialed in. I think had he stayed healthy, it's still 50/50. Indy was a much better team than I thought. Two legit stars and the other guys are well rounded and pretty good. If McConnell were 6'4", he's be a motherfucker. Dude can play. Indy was the best team OKC played by far. They beat Denver and they'd beat Minny by a wide margin. Denver was not a "great" team but Jokic is a fucking load. They just had no one after their top 3. Sucks about Halli, though. Indy would be the odds on East favorite next season otherwise. A side note, the Pacer fans were great. I managed to go to 3 Finals games in OKC and the visiting fans were friendly, knew the game, and were generally awesome. They also said OKC fans were the friendliest they'd encountered but one guy said "We're in the East with Boston, NY, and Philly and they're a bunch of assholes." I was a great series between two small market teams who really care about basketball.
