NBA 2016-17 Season Thread - Knicks in 6

So you cheered for the Dubs when Bogut was on the team?

I cheered for Bogut.

Gaige this is for you

That chase down block Lebron had against Iggy in the closing minutes of game 7 is probably my #1 highlite of all my sports watching.

Your sports allegiances are weird. Alex Smith ball licker. Bengals hater yet isn't a fan of any AFC North team. Utah Jazz fan yet also a fan of the old Sonics.

Also the only reason I hate the Bengals outside of being a Steelers fan is because Burfict is the biggest piece of human fucking garbage on earth and shouldn't even be allowed on the field.

Also also, Inside the NBA is the best thing about basketball by ten miles, and it is not even remotely close. Charles Barkley is an American treasure.

So far Inside the NBA is way more entertaining than the playoffs. I never get tired of the Chuck photo-shops.

Chuck getting fucking posterized absolutely destroyed me.

That shits some of the best stuff on tv, especially when Shaq and Chuck go at it.

It's definitely the best panel of any sport of any network. Great chemistry between those four. Half the time it doesn't even seem like work. Just bros hanging out watching some basketball.

I just wish Shaq didn't always sound like he has a wad of toilet paper in his mouth.

I can't stand Shaq...I feel that the show was so much better before he joined. I can understand if you like his brand of comedy, but I feel he offers nothing in actual analysis.

Chris Webber would make a good replacement for Shaq, imo.

No Kawhi for Spurs, and they are still crushing the Rockets

Yeah, they need him to be healthy if they're going to have a reasonable shot at beating the Warriors, so closing out this series with him sitting seems good.

Talk about Harden and the Rockets not showing up. No Parker and no Kawhi and they're up 30 lol.

Shitty. Spurs are like Warriors kryptonite.

I really don't want the Cavs to face the Spurs in the Finals ugh.

I'll take the mentally weak GSW without Kerr everyday please.

Pop is terrifying lol.

I don't think missing Kerr means that much. The team had a better record with Luke Walton at the helm last season. Kerr has a solid system in place.

I think the Cavs should be more worried about the Dubs. The whole revenge aspect and an elite offense that will be trouble for a mediocre at best Cavs defense.

Mike Brown is an idiot. So, I do think it matters that much when you're talking about facing the Spurs or Cavs in what could easily be a 6 or 7 game series.

Mediocre defense in the regular season I guess. As for elite offenses, dunno if you're noticed, but the Cavs have one too.
