Nope you are crazy!

KD, CP3, Cousins, and K Love are coming to Lakers! Maybe Paul George too.

Lakers will get #1 overall pick tonight.

I thought KD really liked OKC. Not too far from home either.


After last night, I'm saying Thunder in 6.

Just Game 1 and not over...but, so far, the Cavs are showing why no one is picking the Waptors to win.

If the Raptors keep playing like that, it will be an easy sweep.

I was thinking they MIGHT get a game or two, but not playing like that.

Any rumours about where that Maker kid is going?

Raptors lost in game 1 to the Heat too at home. I think they can take a game or 2.

Raps have lost I think 6 straight Game 1s now.

As a fan I'm just happy they made it this far. Yesterday was pretty rough, though. Cleveland was able to do whatever they wanted.


It'll be exciting to see how GS comes out tonight!

Lovely. Bulls get no immediate quick help at #14.

What will they do? Draft a PG because Rose is an injury-waiting-to-happen? Draft a big man because Jo and Pau are likely gone?

I'm all about cheering for the Raptors, but they stand zero chance against King James. They might squeak out a single win. If they're lucky. But off to the golf course for them, soon enough!

The challenge for the Waptors is that the Cavs are actually healthy for this year's playoffs. Love and Irving are not out and so, James no longer needs to carry the team like last year...so, if he has 2 alternative scoring weapons to help, they will be pretty hard to beat.

The Bulls could not take out the Cavs with just James...what makes Toronto think they have a shot to take out a healthy Cleveland team? Just not going to happen.

I think the Cavs/Warriors Finals will be quite entertaining...I'll be rooting for the Cavs to finally win something. The city of Cleveland deserves it...they've been through quite alot (case in point: see the Browns).

I hated him as a Heat...As a LeCav...as much as I hated seeing the Bulls lose year after year after year to him, the hate is not as strong.

Maybe it's the combo of seeing James with Chews-Like-a-Camel and MiniMe that brought out such hatt.

Bulls need to rebuild. The current core/roster needs to be blown up and restarted. They are not going to get past Cleveland ever with LeBron around...so, why keep those players?

Damn. Turned it off at half time to watch Forrest Gump. Turned it back on with 4 min left in the game. 26 points in 20 min for OKC? What the hell happened?
