6 games where most were blow outs and James Harden quit at the end Celtics vs Wizards was 7 games with a bunch of close games
Blatant lie
That's like somebody saying Tim Duncan "teamed up with David Robinson" or Russell Westbrook & James Harden "teamed up with Durant", or Kobe Bryant "teamed up with Shaq"
Oh no it's not. This will be good - I love it when people don't know shyt and I get to turn their mythological childhood heroes back into messy reality.
Duncan went into the draft when he graduated. Westbrook/Harden had no way of knowing who would draft them.
Magic purposely left college early so he could join forces with Kareem.

This Decision Was Beyond Coin Flip
You hear that? The ONLY reason Magic left college early was to team up with the greatest player in NBA history who was still in his prime and rolling out MVP seasons.
And ya'all are getting on Lebron's case for joining a lottery team that had Kyrie.
In the past it would have made things better. This year the teams would change that much if at all and we get Cavs/Warriors early and a an early 2000s-esque pre-determined Finals.
That might happen but it would also add value to the regular season. Teams like the cavs this year wouldn't feel comfortable getting a lower seeding because they would play a higher seed like GS or the Spurs early on

Or they would just play to the seeding. For example the 2 seed keeps you away from Golden State for the longest...so does the 15 or 3 or 6 or 7. I've been a proponent of the 1-16 in the past and I wouldn't be mad if they went to it but if we are being real, it wouldnt' really change shyt. The cold hard reality is that they don't need 16 teams and the playoffs is too long...only 3 teams matter in most years so who really cares about how 4-16 are seeded? It's hard to have a valuable regular season when you have a 4 round, 7 game playoff setup that allows more than half the league to make it in.

I ain't got the time right now to properly respond to everybody because I got to get to this money, but yeah anybody acting like Lebron convincing Bosh to come to Miami and taking less money in order to win a ring (because he couldn't win it on his own) is disingenuous as sh*t. Lebron is good, he's an all time great, but he is a frontrunner from Ohio who likes the Yankees and the Cowboys, and the East sucks, he takes the easy road, but more importantly the East is terrible, deal with it nikkaz, nikkaz is mad because I'm spittin' that real f*ck all y'all nikkaz in Swahili
so basically you already made up your mind....didnt want a discussion....and only made this thread as a basketball version of an STD
and then when people brought up facts you got to bet back to "making money"
lol the coli really is full of bedwetters man

It dont matter the seeding or whether you do it by conference.
IN THE NBA THE BETTER BASKETBALL TEAMS WIN BECAUSE 7 GAME SERIES MEAN YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOUR METTLE
and not rely on a fluky hot streak or a random anomaly to make you a "champion"

Little known fact, Magic actually did go in the draft to play with kareem, little known fact people do not know. He himself said he would've stayed in college than play for the Bulls
Magic Johnson would have returned to Michigan State rather than play for the Chicago Bulls.
"I'd have stayed in school," he said here Tuesday, standing alone outside Gate 3 1/2 of Chicago Stadium, the house that could have been his. "A coin toss changed the course of my whole life." Chicago called heads in a 1979 coin flip with Los Angeles for the No. 1 pick in the NBA college draft. It came up tails. .
Grizz vs. Spurs was pretty good
We back to the "NBA is not entertaining" convo again...
Its simple... Like I stated last time. The NBA is not real. It is scripted. Other teams besides the ones they made storylines for, will not have a chance. so its gonna be boring. But im sure the celtics and cavs will have a few close games. Cavs have been resting. Celts just came off a game 7. The nba cant not afford to have unentertaining conference finals. The celts jus couldnt hit anything until really the 4th quarter
