NBA 2018-2019

Looks quite a mess. That Magic interview with First take was a bit strange also. For some reason, I had a feeling he lied from the start, wasn't natural at all and just wanted to appear in a good light in front of public as his primary motive.

It was a bit Trumpian - control the narrative.

What worries you about the Raptors? (If anything)

I think GS will win but I hope the Raptors take it to 6 or 7.

I think the Raps have a deep bench that could really worry the Dubs if the whole finals experience doesn't get to them. You would hope since it is a veteran squad that wouldn't be an issue but you never know. On the court I don't think they match up quite as well with the Warriors size wise as Milwaukee but they are also big enough where they could still bully the Dubs. On the other side of the coin, I think the Dubs "small ball" line ups could be a problem for Toronto.

Last but not least Kawhi is a beast and if he is "on" I think he could give Golden State all they can handle.

Broussard seems like one of the better analysts on tv (that I've seen anyway).

What's your issue with him? Explain, bitch.

Oh yeah, I read about the homophobia stuff. Ok, black mark for him.

But I just want good NBA chatter and he generally brings the goods.

But if he's making sh*t up, then I'll have to rethink my opinion, perhaps. You made me think about stuff, Eboue. Congrats.

theres a bunch of good nba talking guys, even more than good nfl talking guys.
 
I can't stand Howard Beck. Probably because he's so clearly anti-Westbrook to the point where it's nonsensical.
 
I love the whole Ringer NBA crew . The other thing I would definitely recommend is Dunc'd on podcast with Nate Duncan and Danny leroux who are both excellent
 
Interesting comments from Rick Bucher this morning on Undisputed. He says that it is possible that KD's injury is much worse than everybody thought and that not only will he miss the finals but he will not be 100% by the start of next season. He further reported that it's entirely possible that Durant could re-sign with the Dubs on another short term contract and work his way back to full fitness rather than have to carry the load/be the focal point of a new team and then revisit free agency next year.

No idea why anyone gives attention to those clowns on First Take. They're shock jocks and I wholly believe they choose sides and say things just to drum up responses. Same with Cowherd, Skip and Shannon, etc. Sports gossip queens IMO. These shows were once fairly solid in my view but have since just gone click baity.

Prefer PTI, Dan Patrick, and Dan Le Batard platforms over these others.

I like Scott van Pelt too, when he does Sportscenter

Many teams will gladly give him all the time he needs to heal on a bumper deal.

Skip and Shannon are at least funny. Shannon is the biggest Lebron fanboi whereas is the biggest Lebron/Kawhi hater.
Nothing beats Earnie and his crew though

I like “Undisputed.” Like you said Skip and Shannon are funny and don’t take themselves too seriously whereas on First Take Stephen A Smith is a sycophant and a loud mouth and Kellerman is just a jerk.

Kellerman is a moron, he always takes the complete opposite view of Steven.A in order to create these fake debates. I also dislike Steven.A who you described perfectly.

Toronto doing very, very well despite Kawhi having a bad game.
 
It could be worse, I guess. I suppose when you shoot 36% from the field and the other team shoots 50% you can't ask for much.
