By DominicanPower Go To PostThe Pelicans are a dumb ass basketball team.

By db Go To Post*glances at avatar*You make no fucking sense. The Knicks are a godawful basketball team. The Pelicans actually have NBA caliber talent.
The fact Monty didn't demand to hack bogut about two minutes ago is about the biggest indictment of his mental capacity as a coach this series
Ovah.
I respect Nola's effort, no one predicted them being in this series at all and they were in striking distance 2 times now.

By Moris Go To PostOvah.We have the personnel when healthy we just lack the direction. Unfortunately I feel like the story of the Pelicans is going to be missed opportunities. Fire Monty and add Thibs and this team can be a contender. Keep Monty and we are a second round team at best.

By Moris Go To PostOvah.You're right.

But i look at gsw and they don't really seem to be killing themselves in this series. Playing well within themselves. Just expecting a win.

By unknown Go To Postjon you need cp3 to return.I'll gladly give the clippers Evans, jrue and return Gordon but something tells me they would hang up the phone.
If the Pels tried to actually play ball in the fourth quarter instead of trying to get foul calls on the road (LOL), they could've stole one at Oracle, instead they just showed everyone why they're an 8 seed.

All Monty knows is hero ball in the fourth.
We play brilliant basketball for three quarters of most games but we can't keep it long in the fourth. This has been a Monty staple since he arrived. I used to think it was because of tanking but now that he is coaching for his job it is clear he just doesn't know how to control players in the fourth.
By Jonm Go To PostAll Monty knows is hero ball in the fourth.I hope for Nola's sake it doesn't turn into a scott brooks situation.

By Shun Go To PostTim Duncan retires in 2016, AD rejects contract extension and signs with San Antonio.
I would do something crazy like get a tattoo of a Spur if it happened. As long as Pop and Leonard stay too.
By Zero Tolerance Go To PostI would do something crazy like get a tattoo of a Spur if it happened. As long as Pop and Leonard stay too.If the spurs stole AD, i think pop would hang around. But i'm not sure he has the effort left for a full rebuild.
By Zero Tolerance Go To PostI would do something crazy like get a tattoo of a Spur if it happened. As long as Pop and Leonard stay too.no way Pop stays this long and Leonard has no choice as a RFA.
Messina would be a worthy successor, i think.
By masud Go To PostCompared to the g.o.a.t. Haagen daz? Yes it is.Häagen-Dazs is not budget now? huhuhuehue.
By Jonm Go To PostAll Monty knows is hero ball in the fourth.Well he does said "don't try be hero" at 4th quarter timeout.. if player ignoring that I think its a deeper problem.

The Trail Blazers sent a mixed message Sunday with a locker room sign that read, in part, "We don't lose to Spanish players." They claimed the sign, a laminated card, serves as motivational propaganda during their first-round NBA playoff series against the Grizzlies.
er...
Blazers coach Terry Stotts defended the statement Monday.
"First of all, that wasn't the only thing that was on that (card)," he said, per ESPN. "I wouldn't classify that as the only message of the day. But that being said, it was a motivational thing, and I think the Spanish thing was a little lighthearted. It was the things we needed to do to win the series."
The card is titled "We are Rip City," according to the Oregonian, and lists motivational messages to help the Blazers beat the Grizzlies. The card starts with the phrase "We will be tougher" and ends with "Staying together through adversity."
"We don't lose to Spanish players" is mentioned in the middle section, along with "Nobody can beat us eight times in one year." The card also includes a vow to "Win the dog fight," and a promise to be "(Expletives) on defense."
lawd
so when the blazers wrote
was it "shit on defense", "Bitch on defense" "Pussy on defense" "motherfucker on defense"..... I can't madlib anything in there that deserves an expletive and is motivational.
and a promise to be "(Expletives) on defense."

By Dark PhaZe Go To PostI'm really more offended by Stotts shrugging it off more than anything else.Was it a thing to get Batum going, or what? Whatever their logic, it doesn't seem to be working.
Hope Memphis can use the series to get into some sort of form. Dubs path to the finals seems too easy atm.

By thekad Go To PostCurry's MVP would look ridiculous with Kerr COTY, Draymond DPOTY, Klay MIP and Bogut an All-NBA C.
1996 Jordan MVP had the 6MOY (Kukoc), COTY (Jackson), one other All-NBA First Team (Pippen) and two other All-Defensive First Team (Pippen, Rodman).

I see TheKad has taken marching orders from Morey and Harden to bitch and moan about Curry getting an MVP.

Compare the Warriors to the record setting Bulls and Curry to Jordan without even blinking. Nice.

what? i just wondered what MJ's teams got when he won MVP and posted it, that's all.
i even put "loaded" on there. jesus.
The Warriors went from the 6th seed to the 1st seed, while Atlanta went from a perennial 8th seed to the 1st seed. I can see the reasoning. It's almost a most improved team award.
The east is shit though and Kerr got 67 wins in the west.
So I disagree with bud getting it. But I'm not enraged about it.
