Boomers say NBA SUCKS!

First half of Elite 8 game Tenn vs Houston and Tennessee only scored 15 points at half time.

Tenn is 1-15 from 3FG and 21% from 2FG.

Just amazing basketball they have in college! Way better than the NBA!

Couldn't disagree more. What LeBron did was selfish and nepotism. In any other industry you would be called out for it but almost everyone treated him with kid gloves. Now the coverage of it, I agree, is stupid. What they should be covering is the Thunder and Cavs but instead we get forcefed Laker BS, Steph Curry BS, and Luka Doncic drama.

Can we start a petition to do away with the play in game bullshit. Why would anyone want to see an extra game featuring sub 500 teams. It's bad enough that there will be teams with losing records in the top 8.

Thunder have won 17 of their last 18 games.

Take this in.

What you are witnessing is historical excellence. A marvel for the ages. If they beat Houston in Houston they arent even losing again. 70-12 is on the table.

The greatest team of all-time.

They were only 9th in point differential in history. In fact, of the Top 14 teams of all time in point differential only two didn't win the NBA Finals. That was one of the teams. Every other team went to the NBA Finals so not sure how this years geezer Lebron is gonna do anything.

The West has already been won.

Every team is Uncle Baby Billy until they ain't, now. Be sure to tune in next week on Baby Billys Bible Bonkers. Go on now.

They created a dynasty that is still going.

I'll say this -- I didn't care when they did it. I don't care now.

That said -- compare Bronny to any other 2nd rounder. Compare him to anyone taken anywhere near him.

He MIGHT get 1st round consideration in a re-draft right now. Not early, obviously, but 25-30 range. Because he's shown improvement this year and has, at times, dominated the G-League.

That's the PEAK of any reasonable expectations you'd put on a mid-late 2nd rounder.

The pick has worked out well for LA. Now the hoopla around it is ridiculous, but ultimately the odds of James contributing more at the NBA level than anyone taken in the 2nd (certainly anyone available to LA) are pretty damn good.

Nepotism or no, he's earned his keep in the G-League and most players who have runs like he has had at that level WILL get a cup of coffee here and there in the NBA.

It isn't worth talking about at this point. Water found its level.

By pleading to Durant to come and save them from the GOAT, yeah

If the Thunder couldn't win a ring with Durant and Westbrook it will never happen.

Would you like to place a wager Baby Billy?

61-10-10 for the real MVP

Hell of a loss.

Maybe I am just old but in my day the MVP goes to the best player on the best team except for maybe the Westbrook one.

It isnt even in question at this point. Jokic could put up 50 in the rest of the games all season.

Its. Over.

What has Durant done outside the Warriors?

You seem to think teams don’t want to add good players.
