Not taking the bait

Mamba, out

 

[a-friend]

 
Real question is what if timmy get 7 after this year

What if the Thunder 3 peat

 

[dmbrhs]

I've been saying this for the LONGEST.

See 2011 Mavs. Sometimes, things breaks for you come playoff time. Hopefully this is the Clips/Thunder's year out West. Hopefully.

Yeah, the Mavs sure caught a lot of breaks. Had to play against the defending champs, then an up and coming OKC team that was a year away from going to the Finals, then LeBron's Heat. All those teams were at full strength, too. That's, like, the complete opposite of catching a break lol.

i could see timmy play another 5 yrs at his rate and how pop utilizes him
salt and pepper tapered hair and givin these young cats the fundamentals

happy birthday

I could sit on the bench 90% of the time and look great

 

[art vandelay]

If Duncan gets 6....he moves firmly into top 5...arguably top 3.

I already have him at #6/7 all time. Best to leave em up since Jordan retired. The true heir

Real talk, Timmy should've already had 6. They gifted Miami the first time.

I think he means everything just clicked for that squad. Lots of people picked them to lose in the first round. Whole team was basically past their prime (some guys were on the tail end) and on paper, weren't really a championship squad.

now is that true even if he has no influence on the win? like 15 min per game type stuff? that 6th ring still counts to propel him into the top 5 because he's on the roster?

top 5 player? but top 20 center?

[thirdtimearound]

Duncan has a strong case for top 2 PF/C

Whoops. Meant C/PF.

That was a murderous row. I mean Moreso in things "breaking right" for you. It did for the Mavs. People were calling for them to blow it up in 09 When the Nuggets beat them, and then in '10 when they lost in the first round as well. The failure from 06, and 07 was fresh on people's minds. They kept their core together....added a few key piceses....and Dirk had the GREATEST INDIVIDUAL POST SEASON of the past 10-15 years.

Everyone gets a ring....

And goat PF.

 

[wavycrocket]

nah bron stopped that from happening.

Manu Ginobili, Greg Popovich, Chris Bosh and Ray Allen stopped that from happening.

Bron was a deer in headlights in game 6 2013. Bricks, late turnovers, bad defense...all of that .

Spurs had like a 99% chance of winning that game in the last 45 seconds. Still remember the HEAT crowd leaving, then trying to get back in.

Bouncers don't eem let people leave the club and come back in. Heat fans thought they could get back in game 6 of the NBA finals

 

[dman14]

^nah, i got league pass and all that...
i never said he was the same ol timmy. he's still contributing and can give a solid 10-15 minutes given certain matchup. he's far from "ish"
respek his name

Clips/OKC series is def going to be lit.

How much money would you like to bet that this series does not happen in this year's playoffs? $100 sound good?
