Really sucks about Haliburton. Once he went down you knew it was over and the Pacers weren't going to be able to keep up even with strong performances from some role players. Pacers got hot at the right time and managed to get to the Finals, but even if Haliburton were healthy I can't see them duplicating what they did.
This was a pretty boring Finals. Outside of the game 1 comeback and game winning shot, every other game was a blowout. The one thing you can get out of it was that the best team all year long won the title. Congrats to the Thunder.

Punishment for his voodoo taking Hali's achilles.

I thought you were joking, but looking at this:

I am now convinced you are correct, Siakam's voodoo demands a blood price from those around him.

Meh, I liked it. This was the finals matchup I was hoping for since I like the way both teams play. Reminds me of the 70s when every player on the court was blasted out of their gourds on cocaine.

Celtics fans were like "hey we need to move him, we can probably get a couple firsts" and oh the delusion. Expiring contract and two seconds sounds about right.

Tingus Pingus got traded to the Hawks.

The Hawks acquire him and a 2nd round pick, Terrance Mann and the 22nd pick are going to Brooklyn, and Georges Niang and a second round pick are going to Boston

Watching the draft now. Edgecombe goes third to the Sixers, seems like Ace Bailey will fall for a bit. I wish they’d stop cutting to this yapping negress interviewing the families and just let Jay Bilas give actual information. Aggravatingly Kendrick Perkins has not been lynched yet.

Edit: My local Hornets take Kon Knueppel.

Bailey goes to Utah lmaoooooooo

Damn, now they’re stopping the draft to celebrate the first niggers to get drafted

Funny watching Reddit tiptoe around Adam Silver appearance comments.

The man really is a walking Jewidh stereotype with a face made to be slapped on a poster in 1930s Germany.

Bailey goes to Utah lmaoooooooo

Our suffering is endless

SI: New York Knicks Reportedly Considering South Carolina's Dawn Staley for Head Coach

God, please fucking happen. Go from Thibs who plays starters 48 minutes a game to Dawn who is notorious for benching star players if they fuck up. KAT would be riding the pine like half the damn season.

Lonzo Ball got traded yo the Cavs.

Forgive the doublepost, but Michael Porter Jr got traded to the Nets for Can Johnson

I am amazed that any team took that hideous contract on. Good for the Nuggets

Tough seeing it end like this for Dame, but this is a winning move for the Bucks. The core of the Bucks defense during their title contention was the Lopez and Giannis lineups, they can hopefully recapture that with a Turner and Giannis combo. Now they need to figure out who their facilitator(s) is going to be.

The Thunder sign Shai Gilgeous-Alexander to a four-year, $285 million supermax extension. Shai will be earning nearly $80 million for the 2031 season.

Dame has to be incredibly happy with this though. I don't really see it as doing him dirty.

He can literally go wherever and sign for the veteran minimum since the Bucks have to pay him anyway.

What's everyone's take on the Rockets next year? I think they have a real shot at winning it all. Adding a vet like KD as your number 1 option is going to help your offense flow more smoothly, which was their biggest weakness last season. This all hinges on KD staying healthy and not having a catastrophic decline.
