I'm telling you man. Wiz in 6.
OKC always falls asleep for a game or two in a series. It's why I don't think they'll win a title under it's current regime. Brooks is a good coach but that's a terrible quality for a team to have.

Wiz in 6 seems about right. They won't win a game against the Heat though.
Clips in 6 over OKC. Doc at the helm makes all the difference and Paul neutralizes Westbrook. Durant is overrated and doesn't deserve the MVP. James should get it again. He literally carried the Heat through the regular season so Wade could get healthy for the playoffs.

I hate Westbrook. He thinks he's a lot better than he is. Ball hog

Just watch...either that or

Dude I love Cheese but he thinks Bill fucking Laimbeer is the greatest basketball player of all time. That should pretty much tell you how valid his opinion on the NBA is right there. Now the dude does know his hockey. Although he is bitter that his Wings got knocked out in the first round of the playoffs.

Watching Baseball and Hockney games is punishment enough for Cheese's transgressions. You should never kick a man when he's down...

I hope he was fired for hiring untrustworthy assistants and not for the team's on court results. If Bogut is healthy they'd still be playing right now.

I agree. Yeah, that's the question everybody is asking. Management is not answering it - just serving up the same old platitudes. Again, no surprises there.
I think MJ has improved year on year. He was relying heavily on Mike Malone at first, but this year seemed to be getting his coaching legs under him. Hope he finds another gig and thrives. But more importantly, I hope the Warriors get the right coach for us... kinda slim pickins right now.

Disgusting.
Two seasons ago golden state was 20 games under .500.... Now they are 20 games over .500 and lost in the playoffs to a really good team, in 7 games, without one of their best players. And you blame mark jackson?? That's ridiculous if you ask me

Both of the team names start with the letter 'W'. They both play on Coasts. Both play their home games in arenas.

He's referring to my earlier ribbing. But I later admitted the Wiz had better chances.
@ Zim - to be clear, I didn't want MJ replaced.

Now this is great
The Little Monsters found themselves pitted against the Washington Wizards on Monday, and the results were as surreal as you would imagine........ when a possible conflict emerged between a National Basketball Association playoff game and a Gaga show at Verizon Center on May 15.
The NBA announced Saturday that if the Wizards and Indiana Pacers haven’t settled their best-of-seven second-round series before May 15, Game 6 would be played that night at Verizon Center.
“I swear y’all better not postpone or cancel the lady gaga concert for a basketball game or you will have riots,” tweeted one Little Monster, as Lady Gaga fans are known,
“I don’t care who you are do not reschedule the Lady Gaga concert it will ruin your reputation trust me,” another fan wrote on Twitter.
“I was like, ‘This is not happening. This is not happening to me again,’ ” said Hunter Nguyen, 18, from Silver Spring.
“I want Gaga to go on as scheduled, that’s all,” Nguyen said. “I’ve been waiting for this tour since forever.”

Ok good haha. I was thinking there's no way a (educated) warriors fan would approve of that. Misinterpreted.

How do these things happen? Aren't these arenas supposed to keep possible playoff dates open?
It happened a few years ago with the WWE and Denver Nuggets.

Hell if I know.
I did read they ended up rescheduling the concert for a few days earlier to avoid any conflict.
