So... how many times has the self-acclaimed GOAT been swept in a series now.. 2 times? 3? More?

Assuming they lose tonight it will be 4. Shaq has the record with 6. Kobe was swept three times in the playoffs and was there a hell of a lot less than LeBron. Jordan got swept twice in a row by the Celtics and was there a hell of a lot less than LeBron. Seems to happen to everyone except Curry so far but then again he’s missed the playoffs a shit ton as well which helps.

Any thoughts on Antman’s 4th qtr and entire game….the Twolves are by far the most interesting team left in the playoffs

For my money, when WImby went out.. the game turned into a 5 on 5 playground basketball game.. the first to make 11 shots wins the game.. It so much more enjoyable for someone like myself who grew up from age 10 to 19 playing on the playground.. nothing was more fun to go across town as a 13-14 year old playing against 16-21 years old opposing players .. that's how you gain the respect of being a city hooper..

I think it’s fine not to suspend him. It is actually pretty weird there is no fine though. Not that it matters much to these guys but may as well still give them a $50k fine for something like that.

If he hits Naz in the temple and given a concussion do you think he would have been suspended

Sure, if he hurt him bad he’d get a suspension. Just like if you drive drunk you are in bigger trouble if you crash into someone.

Donovan & Co crawl off the mat and level 2-2
Lakeshow gon fishin. Some questionable decisions by JJ at the end. But it's too late to question it now.

Considering the amount of playoffs he's played at (significantly more than any other all time great) and the fact that at least two of the sweeps that I can remember (Denver in 2023 and OKC now) have come when he was super old, it hasn't happened nearly enough to damage his legacy in any way. Now that I think about the ones I can remember off the top of my head, they've all come against vastly superior teams (Spurs in 2007, Warriors in 2018 after JR forgot the score, Denver in 2023 and now OKC). Not only that, but the first three teams have all won championships those years and OKC is most people's favorites.

Oh this is gold! I love the spite

If nothing else, Brooks is dedicated to the pettiness. Gotta respect it.
