Torn ACL for Kawhi it has been reported.
And the new season is supposed to start in October. Brutal. Olympics this summer as well.

They started the season too soon. All the bubble teams failed this season. The rest were impacted by injuries and covid. If I were the NBA I’d postpone the Conference Finals. The Clippers are toast without Kawhi. The Bucks are trash. Let’s just wrap up those series’. I guess Sixers-Hawks is the only question mark right now. I guess we’ll play that one out. But Emiid is injured and Trae fucked up his shoulder. Once that series is done, give these teams a week or two off. Let everyone recover a bit. Right now, this isn’t good basketball. The games are lopsided. Fans can’t watch their favorite players. The product isn’t good right now and from a business perspective the NBA has to know that isn’t good.

So my prediction of Utah to the Finals is gonna be right on the money thanks to Kawhi and Paul being out.

Maybe if he beat someone more impressive than a bipolar bucks team... Sixers would like to have a word. I swear both of these fucking choke jobs of a franchise are convinced LeBron or Kawhi are still in the east and currently in the playoffs. Fucking cowards. |

On the plus side, I can now check out the free screening of F8 of the Furious this Friday.
City may be on fire, but that's okay. Everything's fine.

Carlisle leaving means some shit is about to go down in Dallas. My money's on Luka walking after his current deal. Dudes gonna be a superstar anywhere he goes.

They were killing him the entire second half with spreading the floor. Unreal Snyder didn't adjust. Mann is a killer.
Two game 7's!

Ben Simmons def scared out there but doc rivers isn't a good coach. Shouldn't get another shot in Philly.

Still in the wake of that loss. Very dense fog. Gonna be an interesting offseason. This one stings. Things broke their way this season, and this was pretty much an best case scenario in terms of effort from Embiid this season, and it just goes wasted.
Would love to see them move from Doc, but their still on the hook for the previous head coach, so I don't know how thrilled they would have to be about paying 2 former head coaches in a 1 year span. But if you have a chance at Rick Carlisle, you do what it takes.
Morey's got his work cut out for him. Might be trading Ben for pennies on the dollar, and which is going to hurt the teams overall D, but he's too stubborn to realize that since his lack of offensive output destroys them. Frustrating.
