>we would have to sell him for peanuts.
salted or unsalted?
fixing this semen slurping sport:
>30 teams
>get rid of conferences and divisions--no one cares
>each team plays every team 2 times in a season
>3 points for a win
>1 for a draw
>0 for a loss
>no overtime for regular season games
>6 team playoff
>5 game first round
>7 game champions hip series
>top 2 teams in the league table ranking get a first round bye
>playoff seeding determined by points(league table ranking) at end of 58 game regular season
>in case of a tie(league table ranking) , POINT DIFFERENTIAL[(total points scored during regular season) - (total points allowed during regular season)] for the entire season breaks the tie
Point differential would make every possession--every play--throughout the entire season count.
With a 6 team playoff you can expect to have 12-13 teams realistically vying for a playoff spot so around half the league will always be incentivized to play hard and win.
Since relegation isn't possible and there are no other competitions(Champions League for example) to qualify for, the other half of the league could be incentivized to win with a combination of determining a teams percentage of revenue shares + determining draft picks
you're welcome, I just saved your dying sport

Can we tell both of those teams to get the fuck out of the play offs and let in one more of Miami/Charlotte/Atlanta/Boston into the 2nd roun?
>Pacers are blowing the game
On Wednesday, a select number of fans will receive free Kings tattoos at five different tattoo shops in the Sacramento area.
Participating locations:
Royal Peacock—opens at 7am—2101 P Street, Sacramento
Honeymoon Tattoo—opens at 12pm—119 Fair Oaks Blvd, Fair Oaks
California Tattoo—opens at 12pm—7946 Auburn Blvd, Citrus Heights
Quarter Horse Tattoo—opens 12pm—916 N. Yosemite Street, Stockton

It literally took the biggest collapse from a coach I've seen to give this game to the Raptors.
This shit unwatchable mang
Fucking pacers had to choke
I think this game cost Vogel his job desu
>>67132959
What coach are they gonna get? All the decent coaches are getting picked off already.
I'm not too into buying basketball shoes, I still ball in my old McGrady's but I'm seriously considering copping these
>>67133002
David Blatt
>>67133067
That is suggesting Knicks, or Lakers don't pick him up
>>67133002
Me. I promise not to sit their entire offense for 6 minutes of a crucial 4th quarter
Ettore Messina better not go to the Lakers. They are hot trash and with the Buss family still running things, it'll just get worse.
>>67133086
I love my 7KT/RBL bros, but they are fire sales, no one is going there
Lakers end up with DFish, Knicks with Byron Scott

My two upsets I want to happen:

Which one is more likely to happen?
>>67133368
yeah apparently the shoes themselves have a lot of traction so you'll need to play them on a clean court or you'll be wiping them a lot because they'll turn into a dust mop

>>67133599
/nba/ were bandwagoning the heat cause they thought they could beat the cavs
What drama happened in the previous thread
>>67133539

Without Curry the Spurs can definitely beat Golden State. Maybe the Thunder can too, if they get past the Spurs.
Golden State is a deep team that's well coached, but it's Curry's meme shots that make them unstoppable.
>>67134125
I think we already discussed this before the playoffs. Oh god memes are becoming real
>>67134105
I am calm
Raps in 6 has been confirmed by meme magic
Norman Powell had a +16 +/-
Carroll was -11
Is Nuclear Powell the future GOAT?
>>67134111
>Is Curry ded for the rest of the playoffs?
No, but he's out for well over 2 weeks and will not be back to 100% by the time Finals start
>Are the Warriors ded without Curry?
They're still a very good team and will be favoured in the 2nd round vs either Blazers or CP3/Blakeless Clippers but the Spurs or the Thunder should beat them in the Conference Finals
>Will we witness the >18-1 of basketball, where some really bad EC team beats them in the Finals without Steph?
We won't because they won't make it to the Finals without Steph and Cavs have the monopoly on winning the East

You can still join the bandwagon my friend. Just bow down to the 6ix god.
Anyone else feel like the Spurs are about to BTFO the Thunder?
I keep thinking about the series and I worry about OKC even winning a game.
>>67134329
>>67134329
the only way for derozan to thaw is for the other team to respect patterson's spacing. it opened up lanes for some dunks

>>67134367
>Anyone else feel like the Spurs are about to BTFO the Thunder?
>>67134374
Raptors were getting BTFO before they stopped playing Patterson
>>67134367
they can't close out and spurs are notorious for making teams pay when they can't close out games. thunder will need to get hot in order for the spurs to get rekt.
>>67134367
>I keep thinking about the series and I worry about OKC even winning a game.
They'll win one or two when Westbrook and KD get hot but the overall series won't be close
I think the Thunder will beat the Spurs
>>67134395
>>67134424
Which one is the real one.
ANSWER ME
>>67134354
The 6ix 6weep
>>67134367
the spurs are set to roll through the western conference. The only two teams that stood a chance just had their best players get injured. Spurs in 5 or 6 vs. thunder, and spurs in 4 vs. blazers
>>67134446
i am lil nigga
I'm glad Spring is here, Thunderstorms are maximum comfy.
Hello?
>>67134459
fucking this
>>67134367
I think people are underestimating the development of Kawhi and the presence of Aldridge in this series. Everyone remembers the BEAUTIFUL BASKETBALL, but they forget that the whole reason that was developed was because the Spurs only had one or two elite scorers. The Thunder used to fuck them up for precisely that reason. Now they've got at least two, maybe more.

>>67134329
DeFrozan still sucked ass, he got a bunch of bad calls in his favor for extra free throws and made one big 3, the rest was the same brick laying chuck fest.
Powell is based as fuck and he completely carried DeFrozan, Lowry, and the rest of them.
Seriously Canada, get rid of Lowry and DeRozan and build around Powell. He's legit.
>>67134496
Now now, calm down sir. You don't got to do this

At this point we can't build around powell, seeing as he's almost certainly getting arrested for mass murder. There were millions of witnesses, the whole thing was recorded, he killed the entire city of Indiana on national television. You can't just walk away from that shit.

I was cheering for the Raptors but you Canadians are fucking yourselves over now. You should know from the last couple days that meme magic is very real and if you keep talking this much shit you're going to be its next victim. Please Canada, remember game 7 in Toronto in 2014, meme magic can make that happen again if you meme too hard. Please be careful northern allies.

is his injury a do-or-die thing for the Warriors, though?

>No, but he's out for well over 2 weeks and will not be back to 100% by the time Finals start

Westbrook looks like a monkey. And not in the "all black people look like apes" way, I mean Westbrook really and truly looks like a full-blown chimpanzee.
>>67134720
Nice try Emory but no
>>67134875
I agree, that's Kobe though
>>67134835
The conference finals are starting in ~3 weeks. He's currently injured and set to be re evaluated in 2 weeks. There's a big chance he won't even be available for the start of the conf finals and with his style of play it's going to take a while for him to truly get back to his unstoppable best
>>67134875
Yeah, Westbrick does look particularly chimp-like. When I see shots of him screaming with his mouth open I get suddenly nervous because I have a primal fear that he's going to lunge at me and rip my ears off.
