Breaking -- The human race has waived Josh Smith: 2014-15 regular season thread part 2

Haha Timmy game winning block and homer rockets announcers calling it a foul

celtics won 6 in a row on the road
--lag∞n

this is making me think they can win a playoff series and that is dangerous

to make you feel better, the cavs actually got the lead in the 3rd quarter then pulled love and lebron for the remainder of the game so that james jones, delly, and someone named "joe harris" could play.

oh yea I was watching, I know that they m/l have up

what I'm really thinking is that they could move up a seed and face toronto and that's a total coin flip

*gave

i'd really like them to get out of the 7th spot be it up or down

memphis can fall from the two to the five seed if they lose to utah in the next couple minutes, the west is so absurd

and san antonio and houston flip flopped the 3 and 6 seeds on that one game

yeah i just saw that. like i knew the west was tight but somehow didn't compute. memphis has the tiebreaker w/ sa apparently. i swear it seems like just a couple of days ago those two were a first round matchup.

spurs are about this life

yeah i was thinking 'spurs don't really need homecourt' and then it's like 'or they could just go grab the #2 seed'. fucking ridiculous.

memphis is playing LAC and GS, so they could lose two games and if the spurs win out, yeah theyre #2

also, the SW division is easily the best in nba. all teams may make playoffs if NO gets in and the best division record is memphis who is 9-7.

shouldn't the dubs be resting guys at this point?

GALLO tho

this was taken from some Twitter acct but I forget who:

The ENTIRE NBA slate tonight started and ended in the time it's taken the Yankees and Red Sox to play one baseball game.

in summary: fuck baseball

its the worst sport ever...and I can't stop watching this game

baseball is great

Wtf

Every summer after the finals I think maybe I'll get into some beisbol then after one six hour sox-yanks slog I'm out

I like the idea of baseball much better than the execution so now I settle for going to 1-2 games a year, half-watching a couple of World Series games, and idly listening to vin scully a few times while puttering

I feel like I had faith the Spurs would put on the afterburners once kawhi and enough of the squad was really healthy but this is truly ridiculous that they are blasting former contenders and ripping through the standings quite literally at the finish line

xp vin is the best

I absolutely love baseball but last night it almost killed me

the spurs are just pouring gasoline on teams and casually dropping matches it's amazing

rip griz http://www.sbnation.com/nba/2015/4/11/8387583/mike-conley-foot-injury-shut-down-playoffs

too many injuries are htting right before the playoffs.

fuck the grizzlies but ugh fuck this stupid season

These minutes muscala's getting with the starters are huge. Think he's gonna be the first big off the bench in the playoffs

I think he's gonna be awesome

I like the Grizzlies but they never actually do anything to improve the team. Other than uh, Jeff Green?

jeff green killed them

listening to the haralabob podcast rn, highly recommended

I'm up 1000 on the season, should start a podcast

nice!

matt did you watch our boy last night?

haha yes he totally saved my night too

Gallo's post allstar numbers are really something, hope it's not a mirage

http://www.basketball-reference.com/players/g/gallida01/splits/2015/

wow and look at his numbers in wins vs. losses

gallo got a mention in the latest simmons column - as the most successful player to have been drafted by the lol knicks in the DOLTlan era iirc

that can't be true tho, how is he more successful than David Lee? I guess he would have been without injuries and he's better now but.

Isiah had great drafts, the one thing he's great at.

there's an alternate reality where Isiah doesn't have sex scandals and doesn't do trades and he's still the Raptors GM.

that really sucks abt conley

the Knicks blurb in the column is specifically talking about top 10 picks by the team, but this being simmons he turns it into a hypothetical by saying:

That's right, your answer to the question "Who is every Knicks fan's favorite draft pick of the 21st century?" is Danilo Gallinari.

He sounds so bummed! And/or bored...I got through about 15 min and realized I don't know why I'm listening to this guy

It also drives me crazy that he doesn't finish his own sentences half the time

I appreciate his (politely, Canadian-ly) burning hatred of Monty Williams though

Knicks vs Magic, 2nd quarter:

Knicks 8
Magic 7

lowest scoring quarter in NBA history!

xxxp he's rich enough to be a career NBA gambler I imagine that comes with a certain amount of disaffection and the potential for sociopathy

could just be my class warfare talking tho

the first 15 minutes or so were kind of bad but then they start talking about interesting stuff and it gets better

this frizz-clips game is HUGE in terms of seeding

no Conley, don't think Allen is playing, not feeling the frizzlies' chances
