Guys I think some of you take my posts WAY too seriously.

I just think it’s funny, that’s all. This is literally the highest pick we’ve had since Ewing. Even higher than the Porzingis pick. And we’re all immediately cool with trading it. Durant, AD and Kyrie is a higher level of starf*cking than Melo and STAT but at the end of the day it’s still starf*cking.

Thompson’s D really is good. He may be one-dimensional on offense, but he fits so well with what his team needs.

In the playoffs this year, Thompson hasn’t even been one-dimensional on offense. He’s shot terribly except for a handful of games. Granted, 2 of those games were the last 2 against Houston and were stellar, but most the time he’s shooting a sub 50TS%.

Draymond Green played four years of NCAA ball and, hey—

He’s a superstar

Portland blew 17 point leads in game 2, 3 and 4, they really only got themselves to blame.

I’m not saying it’s easy to maintain leads against the Warriors, but they had plenty of chances and gave them up every single time. They scored 16 points in the 4th against the Warriors without Iguodala and Durant, playing Alonzo McKinnie in crunch time, that’s just not acceptable.

It just goes to show how top heavy the West actually is, with the 3rd through 8th teams besides Houston and GSW being complete non-threats in the playoffs, and Houston themselves is clearly a step below the Warriors anyway. I just want this damn Warriors team to go away, I can’t stand dynasties.

Portland greatly exceeded expectations by making the WCF. But at the same time, they must feel a little fraudulent deep down. Two easy opponents, followed by yet another sweep out of the playoffs.

Yikes, you have to feel some sympathy for the fans of whoever is up against the Warriors when their big 3 are intact. It must feel like the way it felt when we’d meet the MJ Bulls in the playoffs. Even if it looks like things are going well, you just know in the back of your mind, there is no f’ing way.

and, couldn’t really “catch” the ball, or, run to first…

I think a lot of this was related to the lingering groin injury. He also had god awful BABIP luck last year, which as you can see is turning around as expected. Between that and the injuries, I think people lost their damn minds over a frustrating but easily explainable bump in the road in an otherwise awesome career.
