Wow, a thread that exists so people can brag about what stocks they made killings on to one on "human decency".  You look very very cute on your soap box.

I think the ESPN guys are still picking the Lakers to win it all.

Quote from: Galway Eagle on April 30, 2025, 10:48:10 PMThis would be awesome. Curious if Shaka would envision moving Royce to PF or if Pearson would be viewed as still needing a year or two.

Royce played PF and is expected to start at the 4 this season.

Quote from: forgetful on April 30, 2025, 11:55:26 PMIf he would have been able to stay healthy, a Lakers roster with Doncic and Anthony Davis, would have beaten Minnesota (without Lebron) in this series.

Giving up 18 offensive rebounds and Gobert dominating was a difference maker.

I give Lebron credit for developing his outside shot, but he should be done. Such a liability on defense at this stage of his career.

That game took 2:50.  Wow. 

Something needs to be done about the stoppages. 

Lebron was clearly gassed.  Father time remains undefeated.

Lebron could be done.  Unless he wants a farewell tour.

For Cracknell, the NCAA granted all former JUCOs a blanket waiver granting an extra year while the Pavia case gets sorted. (https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/43131557/ncaa-division-board-grants-waiver-former-juco-players-appealing-diego-pavia-injunction)

For Volker, I assume she's getting her 12 game season at Duke back. I'm unsure of the circumstances that led to her leaving Duke midseason, maybe there was something that led to a waiver?

Edwards has a guy who can barely move guarding him and he takes a step back 3?  Crazy.  0-9 for the game. 

Quote from: forgetful on April 30, 2025, 11:26:56 PMNBA officials have been a joke in the playoffs so far.

This game is insane.  Minnesota is 6 for 39 from 3.  And most have been wide open.
