Boogie is back. Looking forward to this summer when Durant leaves and it gets interesting again. I’ve always defended the top heavy nature of the league but Boston and Toronto(and certainly nobody else) has a prayer of taking them down.(for the haters, this isn’t new, looking back at Vegas odds the 96-98 Bulls were just as inevitable as champs) Next year should be one of the more interesting years in recent memory though.

Can't wait to see the eventual fight between Boogie and Draymond.

I will. I’ll also remind you this attitude is why you often come off so uninformed on discussions regarding current NBA players. You have the same knowledge base as someone like The Hawk :lol:

Got to just love the "Nobody else" disclaimer. You know Philly is lurking in the background. In fact i got them to knock off Paper tiger Toronto if they happen to meet in the playoffs. We will see where both are injury wise come playoff time. Might be a lightweight wager in that one.

No matter what happens with player movement, the NBA is always going to revert to top-heaviness within a year or two. It's just the nature of the game, and despite the high level of play, it makes it difficult to care about.

The difference is I’m going to be watching still, not saying wake me up when it’s over.

Hypocrisy charge denied.

If there’s injuries to GS then yeah of course that makes things more interesting.

No i'm talking Toronto-Philly. You are the ultimate Kawhi lover. I think at full strength Philly takes them (Provided Toronto is at full strength)

You just stated that it is silly to consider anyone else. Well I'm obviously considering someone else. I think Philly bounces them in the playoffs and I am willing to place a wager on it when the time comes. I just don't want major injuries to impact the series.

I used to love Kawhi. Don’t much care for him now and would never bet on him going forward. Never know when he’s gonna just stop playing basketball because he wants to have a temper tantrum.

Fair enough. You do know I was willing to bet on Jimmy "3rd option" Buckets on this one.

For the sake of argument I'm throwing Philly in there. They look as if they are starting to put it together. Toronto and Boston look vulnerable to me.

Last year the Pelicans didn't miss a beat when he got hurt.

I don't know about that one. If he can give them anything its going to be tough. I really didn't expect him to be able to go this soon. That was sort of my hope though I am a Boogie fan. If he is able to go 20-25 minutes in the playoffs and be somewhat productive you might as well hand them the title.

I think they were on a 7 game winning streak when he got hurt.
