NBA Finals time!

[ZyggiStarbucks]

C’mon, siamesedream! You and I are about the only bouncy-sportsball fans, so I posted here in the Empty Pub.
The C’s first win was hard-fought. The Greek Freak is fun to watch, so I won’t be upset if Milwaukee wins the series, though...

Is Embiid playing yet, with his phantom of the opera mask?

The mask is awesome, and Embiid needs to play. Feck this Miami team up.

Also, Ronda Rousey went from being MMA champion to professional wrestling, which is the equivalent of Jim Thorpe arm wrestling guys in bars for drinks in his final days.

Yeah, I think they’re 1-1, so we’ll see who does the fecking.
But I prefer your guys. That Ben Simmons pup...

Leebron bringin it. No way the league would let the Cavs get down 2 games anyway.
If the Cavs get bounced, I foresee Leeebron taking his talents elsewhere, pronto.

Yessss.

[ZyggiStarbucks]

Yessss.

Eh, better for em to win it without the disruption of a crybaby ball hog.

I go back and forth on that. He could definitely mess up the chemistry of the current roster, unless he was willing to step back and be an "elder statesman" on the team. I'm not sure he's capable of doing that, he's got quite an ego. At the same time, it would be compelling to see a starting five with Simmons at PG, Lebron at power forward, and Embiid at center!

[siamesedream]

That game wasn't fun to watch, but the Sixers got it done. Bring on the next!

If the C’s move on to round 2 of the playoffs, our fine romance may be over, sweetheart!

We survived Eagles/Pats, but will this be the straw that breaks the camel's back?

Well, I’m always happy to see the smug-ass Pats fans sad.

Dallas and Giants fans too.

I’m not surrounded by Dallas and Giants fans, so they’re moot.

We had Dallas and Giants fans where i grew up. People born in Philly and NJ who were seduced by the America's Team campaign that Dallas ran in the late 70s and early 80s. Or New York transplants.

The point may be moot if the Greek Freak &Co have their way.

My kid asked me to order a couple Basketball Superstars books the other day. I said sure, because they were inexpensive. Then he saw a book about Giannis Antetokuonpo and was like, “can I get this one, too?”

Thank god that Giannis knows the world is round!

[siamesedream]

The Sixers would have home court advantage if the Bucks win, OTOH, Giannis is a match up nightmare, even for Embiid.


So I'm not sure who I should root for.
