    MLB 2015 Season

    Bonds at the same age had one of the all-time greatest hitting seasons regardless of age.

    I'd be more concerned that he'd bring you guys along too quickly. They've tanked for bigs, now they need another bad year or two to draft a top 5 PG or SG. (and let's face it, a bottom 5 finish is almost unavoidable for them again next year.)

    I dunno, when quoted right after they thought they'd signed Jordan, Cuban pretty much said he was about ready to just tank if they hadn't gotten him. Then they end up not getting him... Cuban actually tells Mathews he won't hold him to the deal. I think he's ready to tank, maybe will ask Dirk...

    Lol @ 4-corners. Classic shit. One of my years in highschool we were playing a really good team, and we got an early 4-0 lead or something. Coach had us go 4 corners for the rest of the half. It was pretty f'ing sad.

    My new dream (stolen from an idea I saw on a Warriors board) is for the Mavs to tank, decide they don't want to put Dirk through a year of tanking and would rather give him one last shot with a contender, and trade him to the Warriors for G. Wallace and future pick(s) Some silver lining of this...

    Just lol @ Jordan returning to the Clippers. It makes the West more difficult, but it'll also be entertaining to see what happens as a result of this. How mad Cuban is going to be etc.

    Seriously. Livingston, Barbosa, Iguodala, Lee, Speights / Ezeli is better than a number of the starting squads that were out there last year. I long to see the Spurs in next years playoffs. I was honestly disappointed that the Clippers knocked them off because I want to see that series...

    I agree Carlisle is a much better coach than Doc and Jordan will probably average 15/15 there or something. But who is their best player right now? It's still 37 year old Dirk. They have Dirk getting pretty old, Parsons coming off an injury, Mathews coming off a pretty serious injury, and...

    Remind me again who is going to play PG for Dallas this year? I like Jordan going to Dallas, actually makes the west weaker. The Clippers may be on the downhill, and Dallas sure isn't going to do anything without a back court.

    So you think a PF that shoots 36% from 3 and <50% from 2's makes up for his inability to D up the P&R but a post C that can potentially score FG's at 60%+ can't? Granted, in today's game having a stretch 4 helps in other ways aside from the points you get from the 3's themselves, but overall I...

    I think Okafor was the better pick long term cause as said above, he has a chance to be one of the few great elite bigs, while there are great guards all over the place. Okafor could be a top 5 post player from day 1, and will likely be the best post player in the league at some point. They...

    Don't really have to... either way it looks like they'll be paying less tax than the Cavs lol. They'll try to unload him if they don't have to give up much (one pick?) to save a good chunk of money, but they can do so anytime before the trade deadline. I still like the idea of just letting him...

    Btw, I think KLove should go back to Minny. Pull a little Lebron move. Yeah, I didn't want to play here before, but now that you guys have some #1's on the roster.... They Love him there, they have the space? and that would be a scary good front court. Not going to happen cause he thinks the...

    Let's not get too crazy here. I'm gonna say there's no way that guy is top 5 in a few years. Maybe a top 5 center at best.

    Are you saying any one guy? Or that you don't think any guy in this draft will be as good as Cousins? To me Cousins is not that good when everything is considered. He is a great rebounder, average defender, inefficient on the offensive end, and a locker room cancer. Add it all up and I think...

    I'm surprised Cousins lasted this long in Sac. It's difficult to see him leading a such a small-market team anywhere. They definitely shouldn't do it for Karl alone, but an argument can be made to do it for the good of the franchise. They don't have the pieces there to win with Cousins, and...

    They announced this morning that the team and Lee have decided to try to find a new team for him. It's fine, he literally contributed almost nothing this season regardless of a few decent minutes in the finals. I hated it when they brought Lee in originally for too much money, I saw last year...

    I hope so. Warriors could potentially be even better having the title experience under their belts now and another year for the young guys. Maybe more likely though one or two of their guys get injured and they don't make it back. So difficult to get through the west...

    Cool, but that's very much a product of the style of basketball the Cavs are playing. Ie, 40 minutes of Lebron iso ball where he either takes one of his near 40 shots a game or finds open shooters and cutters. His numbers are not better than Jordan's from that series, granted that Phoenix...

    As a Warriors fan, I was actually thinking during the first half yesterday that IF we won the series, I could see Lebron winning MVP and I might not have a problem with it. However, after Steph went off, and after scrutinizing Lebron's play a little more, I don't think it should happen. He's...

    I disagree. Cavs would have been a different team and it'd have been a completely different series if those guys were playing. With Love and Irving getting a lot of minutes yes the Cavs are much more scary on the offensive end, but the Cavs wouldn't be nearly as adept as they have been in...

    Pretty much half the plays shown in your video are not fouls. At least one of those that actually is a foul was called a foul (where Green is grabbing Mozgov's jersey.)

    It's not about Curry so much carrying them as it is leading them. A lot of the time, as he goes, the team goes. All season long I've seen a lot of people making claims about how Curry shouldn't be the MVP because of how talented they are. They are a very talented team, but they are a few...

    Agree totally. You have to question Blatt not trying to get Marion and Miller some minutes while cakewalking through the East. I can't believe neither of them can contribute 5-10 solid minutes a night. Team is just spread too thin.

    I don't think it was rust so much as Finals nerves. Warriors had zero guys with finals experience and it showed - it was to be expected, I thought the first game might go that way. One of the comparisons I had to this series going in was the 91 Finals. The Bulls had just had a stellar season...

    There's no way Lebron is going to chase Curry around all game long. We'd take Curry off the ball and have him run off screens over and over.. Lebron can't do that all game long and be expected to lead on the other end as well. I could see him guarding Curry at points if he gets hot or at the...

    And just as I say that he follows it up with another horrible pass haha.... yeah, he makes boneheaded plays, but overall he's a plus coming off the bench due to the D he brings and unique ability to post up opposing PG's.

    Yeah, the Warriors D was pretty incredible as well. They switched Barnes onto Harden for much of the game, which I think made it more difficult for Harden to drive and push off like he likes to do. On Drives Harden utilizes his strength to get into guys and create space, but that's more...

    Was laughing so hard when Curry boxed out Howard, grabbed the rebound, then drew the foul on him. Like I said before the game, Warriors needed to take better care of the ball. They did, and that was the biggest reason why they jumped out to that huge early lead. The Rockets energy was awful...
