My mind was blown when I read earlier today that Denver would be the first Western Conference team to win a chip outside of California and Texas if they win the Finals.

Granted that's because Seattle Sonics don't exist anymore. Sorry elpablo21

Edit:

Wait, that's wrong. The Blazers won in the 70s.

I hope Denver fails.

Very unlikeable team.

Didn’t the Blazers get one in the 70s?

Actually that's wrong because the Blazers won in the 70s.

Same thing I said about AD. Joker walks around at 275-280. Bam giving up at least 30lbs.

Good luck

 

[elpablo21]

Yup Seattle and Portland in the 70's were the last to do it

It's been Houston, Dallas, SA, GS and LA ever since lmao

 

[MVP]

Folks seem to be underrating Bam's defense because of the lapses he's had on offense. He's been playing as good as any big in the postseason on that end.

He's done a great job against Embiid, Giannis, Randle and the J's the last 2 postseasons.

Jokic is still gonna eat regardless but I don't think Spo and them are gonna make it easy at all for him

He is good, ultimately think he's just too small.

 

[elpablo21]

Had to look it up but in comparison The East has had 8 different states and a whole *** other country win compared to Cali and Texas dominating the last half century

I agree with you about the food

But just sell me the food

White people remixing the culture and trying to sell that back to me is goofy.

Like when I am at Bahama Breeze, just bring me my damn tostones and empanadas and drop the struggle Jamcician accent Jessica.

Lol white people work at bahama breeze where u live? What part of middle america is this?

Jessica worked hard on that accent b.

Imo the main difference will be Spo and Miami having more active Perimeter defenders.

Lakers never fronted Jokic and rarely hard doubled, I think Spo will do both at a high rate.

 

[the coolness]

Heat in 7 BUT in true season finale fashion, they pull off the reverse sweep after going down 3-0.

The script writers teased it all last round only for them to pull it off in the FINALS.

It's too perfect.

 

[dacomeup]

I think Bam/Heat can do a better job on Jokic than AD/Lakers did.

I don’t see it. They have even less bodies to throw at him. Bam is a worse matchup than AD, and if they want Bam to play that roaming role then he doesn’t offer the same rim protection that AD does.

elpablo21 Nuggets in 5

 

[B Sox]

Bam giving up a lot of weight, and doesn’t get the ability to play any free safety whatsoever because he’s their only option as a big out there unless they want Kevin Love to die.

More active then the Lakers?

Spo might be able to gameplan better then D Ham but personnel wise they don't have the bodies to trouble Jokic.

With the exception of Lowry, K Love might be the only guy over 240 on that roster.

[finessence]

There’s actually one still in SoFlo. At Sawgrass Mall

I can’t believe that s*** STILL at sawgrass. It opened up in like 1996. Been to sawgrass a thousand times over and never consider that jawn.

Walk past and you get misted by an animatronic monkey or alligator

I mean those 2 states make up half the teams in the conference so not too surprising

Offensively 1000%
heat have more players that you have to respect their shooting
Defensively I don’t think zone is going to work as much as it did on the Celtics

 

[storm2006]

Man, I had

[B Sox]

Don’t even understand how you CAN play zone against Jokic.

Good Luck
