    The Nuggets are pretty banged up. Glad the series doesn’t start until Saturday. KCP is going to need to defend Ant quite a bit and if he’s not close to 100 percent that’s gonna be a huge problem.

    Yeah, KCP's ankle is going to be a huge factor.  Hope he's better by Saturday.  Can't guard Ant if he's gimpy.

    The NBA ref conspiracy theory trope is so lame and tired.

    This just in: they miss calls. They are human. It happens. Anything beyond that is black helicopter shit. Except for Tony Brothers. He's just fucking incompetent.

    With any other team involved, I agree with you.  With the Lakers, the evidence shows you're wrong.  The NBA really, really wants LA to be relevant.  Look at the fucking call they reversed last night on Jokic.  He fucking got mugged and they said it was marginal contact.

    Don't forget that the NBA actually had a ref go to prison for rigging games.  And he was besties with Scott Foster who is still an active ref.

    I did watch the game. The reversed call was bad. But when it happened in the other direction when Russell was smacked in the head in the other game I didn't hear any conspiracy theories. The most annoying thing was Austin Reaves doing the thing where he pump fakes someone, gets them in the air, then bumps into them to get a foul call. That's really annoying. But he is not the only one doing that. I've seen Jokic do it too. That particular call really annoys me when it happens.

    The difference with the DLo call (although I agree it should have been a foul) was that the ball had already left his hand when he got hit.  Jok still had the ball in his hand.

  3. I have already said what I think of your conspiracy theories and that I think you are a crazy person for believing in them. Seriously decouple yourself from this stuff and maybe just stop watching the NBA if you think it’s all rigged. Leave the sport to fans who just enjoy watching it instead because you clearly cannot just enjoy the games.
    A normal fan would be pretty happy with a series victory in such a fashion, but not you. I did not watch any of the game because I had something far more important that I was doing today, but even I was glad for Murray to do what he did. You, however, take the route of being miserable about things like a basketball game that don’t even matter in the overall scheme of things. It’s not a good look and I find it embarrassing that any older adult of your age would believe in such nonsense as there being a ref cabal fixing games solely for the Lakers. They’re doing a pretty shoddy job of fixing these games.
    Lol. Your ability to ignore empirical evidence is impressive. And now that the Lakers are dead at the hands of the Nuggets again, I can watch 5 on 5 basketball instead of 5 on 6.

    Enjoy Galveston!

    May as well get the series over with haha.

    I’d think the wolves stick mcdaniels/naw on Murray, Porter draws ant and Kyle Anderson, joker draws kat/rudy/naz/kyle Anderson.

    Rudy on Gordon again

    Conley roams with KCP
    Can't wait. Winner gets the chip, IMO.

    The league better be watching.

    You would think that after this many years in the league, Westbrook would have finally figured out that "playoff intensity" doesn't mean increasing your scowl and amping up the histrionics and fake tough guy bullshit. 

    In a way it makes me mad because I think he could have been a great player, but he's just too stupid and mentally weak to get there.

    Hey, at least he'll fight fans if they call him Westbrick!

  6. Also I love ANT. He and Wemby will continue to fuel my NBA addiction. I think Minny is going to be a very tough out for Denver. 
    I think Minn/Den winner is winning the chip. And I love Ant except when he's playing the Nuggets.

    Certainly not Sainz, but I'd rate him over Perez. 

    Yeah, I would agree with this.  He's just been driving a shitbox for the last 2.5 years.
