I go from what Bill Simmons said, say what you want about him that man 100% has ties in the celtics organisation.
He said they head brass didn'teet face to face with Durant, only his agent

Ainge must be lying then.

My bad, they didn't get a second crack at him.
I'm not reading the articles.
I may be drunk (the crowd gasps in shock)

After the last 2 trade deadlines I'm trusting everyone but Ainge

I don't think anyone got two meetings with Durant? Pretty sure those meetings he had were it and then teams were literally in the dark.

While I know that people are still changing their minds about Westbrook and Harden.

There are 5 series at 3-2. Any chances that any of the underdogs actually win?

The Bucks I think are a chance to take it to 7. That's been a real bizarre series though. Admittedly I haven't watched it but looking from stats it looked like the Bucks had figured out a way to make things hard for Toronto, then it randomly ended.

The Grizzlies can beat the Spurs I think.

Been watching, Toronto end them next game by playing small.
The only series I see going 7 is Hawks vs Wizards, now that series has been weird. Sticking with Wall though

I don't think anyone made out like it was that at all. KD himself said his decision to even leave OKC was extremely tough.

He was never going to leave them for Boston was the point, hence a token meeting.

Token meetings don't involve extra hour long chats with the players.

Fed up with it.

How about the triple double record?

 

[peternorth]

Yeah but that also coincided with him playing with his two buddies and being able to live in Miami.

who were still there when he decided to leave

take that for data!

Already know Westbrook has won it, care more about advancing tbh

Look, its an emotional topic. Everyone is on edge because you all know come seasons end Lakers have Magic Johnson to dangle in front of FAs. A meeting with Magic in the Hamptons at Venice Beach will trump all

I'd be careful if Magic dangled something in front of me...

David Lee starting in SA is still blowing my mind.

It was 45 mins at best. Surprised he lasted 5 mins with Marcus Smart.

 

[Drummer_19]

Durant was a giant pussbag late during those OKC runs, it's fun to hate on Westy for being a ball hog but Durant was more than happy just to sit on the wing and be a spectator over and over again and bail out defenses with 30ft 3s.

 

[Drummer_19]

Mempis hangin tough, Conley is so good.

 

[DT_35]

LOL Aldridge

 

[Drummer_19]

Nice of LMA to show up.

 

[Drummer_19]

Gonna suck when this Grizz team is done, just gonna be every team banging 50 3s a game soon.

It's great, Marc Gasol is so fun to watch in the high post with the ball.
