Why? How many all-time greats won a title when the 2nd or 3rd best player on their team was out for the playoffs? I'm having a hard time thinking of one off the top of my head. Jordan's teams were always pretty healthy I think. Magic won that finals game 7 without Kareem, which was...

You're definitely overstating how little value he has. The Al Jefferson comparison is warranted but he is definitely more skilled than Jefferson was at that age, and Al Jefferson gets something of a bad rap because of the situations he's been in his whole career. He's usually been the best /...

Mo Buckets just needs to get in shape, really hasn't been there all year. Maybe playing more often pushes him closer. But yeah, gonna suck if Ezeli is out for the year. It's supposedly just "exploratory" surgery at this point but not feeling too optimistic about seeing him back this year. A...

Damn, Phil has to be targeting Luke. He's trying to take some of the force away from us. Warriors with a brutal 7-game road trip coming up after they play Rockets at home on Tues. Includes @Clippers, @Hawks, @Miami, @OKC.

In the NFL you can never be sure. I'm sure when Marino got schooled by the Niners people were saying the same kind of shit (that Marino would make many more SB's). Newton will only go as far as his defenses can take him. He'll play a huge part on the other side, but you just can't do it...

Myers didn't trade Ellis and draft Klay - Larry Riley did. But yeah, as a whole you have to trust whatever their management does right now. Not trading the farm for Love was one of the most key moves they made, and it wasn't just Myers' decision it was a collective one between Myers, West, and...

I hope it doesn't happen, cause that would probably mean that the Dubs didn't finish this season off with a title. I just can't see Durant wanting to join the two-time defending champs to get his titles - that would be more lame than what Lebron did joining Wade and Bosh. Durant wants to win...

Ahhh memories.. tied for 2nd favorite Niners memory of all time. Hard to choose between this one and the Alex Smith to Vernon Davis throw. Young to TO was the last great moment of a dynasty.

If you like dumplings hit up Din Tai Fung in Lincoln Square in DT Bellevue - place is always packed and often has 1+ hour waits but the food is pretty damn good. Can either try to get a space at the bar or if you have to wait an hour for a table you can check out the mall or have a drink at...

That's not desperate that's a turnover. Receiver wasn't thinking.

Tyron Lue lol. Lebron just wanted a "Yes man" for a coach. Would be awesome to see this somehow lead to the Cavs not even making the Finals, unlikely as that may be.

Fucking bench plays no D, forces the starters to re-enter, and Klay rolls his ankle =(

Pacers came out tonight looking like they thought they could outgun us (and they've had some great shooting nights this year so it's understandable, at home especially) ... Klay with 39 pts on 10 3's through three quarters and the team has 111.

100+ passing? ?? Close to 200 yds rushing 100+ receiving and another 100+ on returns. He did throw a TD pass too but that was his only throw. He just had another TD run to put him over 200 rush yards for the game. 460 all purpose yards this game, and broke Sanders all-purpose yards record for...

Man.. Dubs didn't do much right tonight aside from Curry and Klay's shooting. Not great D, bad rebounding, lost the turnover battles 12 to 6, Lowry was great on the other side, on the road. The Raptors had built a 3 point lead with a few minutes left in the game, and it looked the like...

Had forgotten that that Plush recording came from Headbanger's Ball. I like that version a lot more than the one from their "Unplugged" session - they dropped the tuning down a step for this one and it seems to fit better for acoustic, more mellow, maybe allows Weiland to nail the song a little...

One of the first songs that came to my mind too. Poor taste but, yeah.. they play that song a lot on the radio here in the Seattle area and I'd just heard it like a day or two ago. They're from Cali, but they're like an honorary grunge band. Just loved their shit. I listened to their first...

Silly to say Kobe is overrated. He played with a lot of talent but he was far and away the best player on those last two title teams. That Celtics team he beat was probably better than any Jordan had to face in the Finals (one might argue the Jazz were on par at best, but I don't think so.)...

Jordan didn't pop his Achilles late into his 30's, had the year and a half intermission to rest his body mid 90's, and generally had a lot less NBA wear on his body at any given age than Kobe did. Kobe had like 5000 more minutes played than did Jordan even before he popped his Achilles. Jordan...

Curry seems to like this Memphis basket to end 3rd quarters.. I'm sure you remember this play: Then fast forward to about 5:10 in this video from last night. First a little warm up shot while trying to draw a foul (didn't seem to be much contact) which was pretty good by itself, but...

Why don't they deserve him? The Knicks have great fans and have been suffering for a while.

And yet you included Indiana "due to past history"... UCLA has been far more relevant than Indiana in recent years. Anyways, your statement was about what these programs have accomplished (with no qualifications about when), and no program has accomplished more than UCLA.

You somehow forgot the school with the greatest accomplishments in your list.

No, he shot 44% FG's in his first season and then regressed to 40% when they brought in Iguodala to start for him the next year. Que a new, real basketball coach heading into last season and he rebounded just as I thought he might. He was never a terrible defender, and played pretty much on...

Eh, I'll defend Barnes since Slaythe used to talk shit about him saying that he was a terrible basketball player and would never be a quality NBA player blah blah blah.. too lazy to dig it up, but it was a lot more negative than he deserved. He hasn't lived up to his high school hype of course...

Grizz were up on us 22-21 after the first quarter... it's now 88-44 near the end of the third

Steph with 53 on 27 shots. Dare I say he's been looking like he's taken it up another notch..

Winter is coming bitches! As usual, the west is going to be extremely interesting this year and the Least is a joke, what's new? Spurs, Thunder, Clippers, Dubs, Rockets, anybody's guess who makes it out. 4 of those teams should be significantly improved. It's pretty difficult to see...

We all saw it coming since we already know the Cubs are going to win it all...

Not really equivalent though are they?... If Apple came out with a true equivalent (which they would never do until being pushed by the rest of the industry because they'd cannibalize their own sales) you know they'd charge at least as much. Touchscreen with stylus support + tablet mode has to...

Whatever you do, I'd wait a month or so until all the new hardware has been released. Surface Pro 4 is supposedly getting announced very soon, and other companies should be releasing Skylake-based laptops / hybrids / tablets soon as well. So if you want a Pro 3 they should be cheaper, or if...

I do think they should turn the wild card into a 3-game playoff, but be thankful you have the wild card at all! Better than winning 100+ games and not even getting a shot as used to happen.

Have to say I love the FAQ answers. They have a plan, and they have target dates. Probably won't hit them but at least they have clear goals. That's more than we've gotten out of SOE / Daybreak on EQ3/Next in 6-8 years and how many millions? Sad..

Why would a MacPad fail because of few apps? The number of people using MacBooks for business seems to be increasing - if it was a MacPad somebody would have access to all Mac programs and could dual-boot windows if they wanted as well. To me the ideal for this larger iPad would be a MacPad...

Bumgarner with another win and another bomb tonight.

Damn, going into the 8th MadBum was outhitting the Nationals 2-1 but he gave up a couple more hits in the 8th and 9th. He'll have to settle for outscoring them (2 RBI - 0) and recording 14 K's.

Cool - I was serious, I hadn't heard of most of that stuff. Although I don't see how google glass being incorporated into military related things is helping to make the world a better place... just a bad example, I know doctors use it as well.

I don't exactly see Google bending over backwards to try to make the world a better place. Self-driving cars are the one thing that should theoretically eventually be a great thing, but aside from those?

I tried going to Alphabet.com and got a blank. You can't hide Skynet, we know you are there.

How the F were the Giants a traditional powerhouse? Just because they made the playoffs a number of times in the 2000's?? 0 WS wins in SF until 2010. That's like calling the Cubs a traditional powerhouse because they've made the playoffs a number of times. 50+ year drought vs. 100+ year...
