    NBA 2015 Playoffs Thread

    I used to use the TNT stream a lot during the season and it was mostly fine. During the playoffs it's been very hit and miss. Sometimes it works, other times it's unwatchable. They need extra bandwidth for the playoffs.

    Seriously, playing like pussies. Somebody needs to punch Conley in the face for hanging on Curry all game and not getting shit called on him. Not even joking. Set a hard screen on Tony Allen, do something. I lost it when Tony Allen was going in for a layup there at the end of the half and...

    Except there's a 3x3 max right now in the horizontal plane. You can go as high as you want so you can still put them all together, but you can't make a sprawling city by yourself.

    You're forgetting John Stockton and Adam Morrison.. But seriously, it's a different era. In this day, with youtube highlights and the way recruiting is, I don't think there's any way guys like Malone or Bird go to smaller schools. Curry and Nash are obviously very different MVP's than...

    Maybe not as weird that 3 out of the last 11 MVPs have gone to 6'2 guards out of Santa Clara and Davidson.

    And don't forget, that's a MSU - MSU matchup in Green - Randolph! Green did a good job guarding Blake in last year's playoffs which was the point you could see that he was starting PF material. If he could D up legit PF's, everything else he brought would say he can be a "stretch 4." Randolph...

    SOE Becomes Daybreak / Russian shutdown

    Would be sweet if it meant Daybreak was considering getting P99's help to setup a legit classic server. I would re-sub for that. Early P99 was a ton of fun, but the current server saturation + potential corruption etc. keep me from coming back. If Daybreak is going to do another classic...

    No doubt Love is a huge part of that win disparity, but you can't argue with a straight face that you had essentially the same personnel this year considering all the injuries the starters suffered and resultant games missed. You guys were starting a couple 19 year olds for much of the season.

    The next round should be good though, looking forward to Bulls-Cavs especially. I hope Rose can stay healthy. All the matchups should be good series but that will be especially interesting.

    The crazy thing wasn't that it was a 20-point comeback, or that it was a 20-point 4th quarter comeback. They were down 17 with 6 minutes left, in a playoff game, on the road. I've seen some resilience in that team this year - I mean it's hard to ever count them out because of how good the D...

    I was about to say duh Kawhi... he was the first pick out of the lottery though, which is amazing to me. I wanted the Warriors to pick him at 11 that year and it looked like he might get taken before that. We picked Klay (can't be too upset about that), but then Burks and the Morris twins...

    It could apply somewhat to the Cavs?.. but I'd say to a lesser extent since their best player has been there and done it.

    Eh, Cavs have been playing as well as anybody since they made their trades. I might favor them too if I had to pick. Spurs or Cavs, pick one as the favorite. Warriors have had one of the historically great seasons but it's rare for a team to shoot straight from 1st / 2nd round exiter to champ.

    I just hope we get to see it. One can never take anything for granted in the west. We gave the Spurs a hell of a scare with MJ as coach - I want to see the WCF rematch with Kerr at the helm.

    Bogut's backup is actually a pretty good rim protector (and decent overall). He was hurt the entire season last year (and much of the beginning this year) so when Bogut went out in the playoffs it hurt extra, starting Lee at center next to Green lol..

    One bit I'll add - if you're thinking about going up in the Space Needle, just book a meal at the restaurant far in advance. You ride up and pay for your meal, get to enjoy the view as you eat. If you just go up on the viewing deck without eating, you have to pay like $15-20 a person anyways...

    Really bad how? It was a terrible idea to fragment Windows and make the whole confusing Windows RT niche, but aside from that I haven't seen many complaints about the quality of those? This product eliminates the major problem with the original cheap surfaces by going x86 instead of ARM.

    Curry also just destroyed the previous high for 3's in a month, and it wasn't close. This was on shooting 52% from 3 and only playing 32 min per game (stats shamelessly ripped from another post!): 1. 75 threes in 549 min (Mar 2014-15) Steph Curry 2. 62* threes in 583 min (Feb 1995-96)...

    Note that the atoms are Cherry Trail, the first atom to ship with 14 nm process technology. The word seems to be that graphics performance will see the biggest boost. It might actually be comparable performance to the i3 in the Pro 3's, will be interested to see the benchmarks also.

    Interstellar (2014)

    Contact is an all-time favorite of mine. This movie was ok but Contact was miles better. This movie tried to be more than Contact, and ended up being quite a bit less. Nolan tried to get too fancy with the bullshit plot twists instead of just trying to make a great sci-fi movie.

    IV > V no contest. I did actually get into V a little more since I got the expansions cheap some months back on a similar deal, but yeah it just doesn't quite give the same feel of other Civs still, for too many reasons to list (as they've been hashed out enough).

    New Progression Server confirmed

    Seasonal server is kind of a cool idea, but would it become dead as the deadline approaches? Or would they actually have enough cool goals / rewards etc. that players would be racing and binging as the server winds down. What kinds of goals and prizes could they come up with? Whatever options...

    That was kind of my point.. .although I realize I didn't explicitly make it. I was just saying Curry's ridiculous +/- that was mentioned above is largely due to exactly that. He is destroying the league and he's easily the most important piece, but a big part of it is the new offensive system...
