Imagine being a raps fan. Like being a Celts fan without Nets picks to feel good about.


And the Cavs... Ugh, I can't tell you how sick I am of the cavs playing basketball like I treated junior year of high school and yet continue to win in the playoffs.

So does Paul George get sick of everything after Indiana loses this game and possibly get swept... enough to demand a trade to Boston this summer and agree to a long term commitment?  :laugh:

Wow! The Raptors are getting flat out crushed!!

And they mortgaged  their future for this playoff run. Yikes!

And that's the difference between a good GM and an average GM. Ainge knew his team wouldn't contend this year even if he made a few trades. If he had traded for some of these guys and we were still getting crushed in the playoffs everyone would blame him for ruining our chemistry and wasting our draft picks on rentals.

Totally. GM has to see the big picture!

Lol this Pacers D might be as bad as the Cavs D.

And Indy might be just as reliant on PG offensively as Boston is with IT's offense.

Now combine PG13 and IT on the same team and that solves everything for us  ;D

It will be hard cap-wise. I think it definitely means Bradley, Fultz/Jackson, AND Crowder are all gone, BUT maybe Ainge is watching the C's and believes losing those guys won't hurt as much if it means that happens^

I think he's the guy they came close on at the trade deadline, and they are confident that deal will be there in June.

I think that trade is going to be easier for both teams after the playoffs.

Sometimes I wish I could enjoy watching LeBron. I really do.

I've always seen him as a villain. Can't help it. Never liked how his teams play. He seems to be a nice guy off the court. I couldn't really explain it to you.

Lol PG is definitely gone after this series. He can't get any help on either side of the ball.
