http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/23466117/cleveland-cavaliers-point-guard-jose-calderon-not-billionaire-tell-teammates-that

Found this amusing.  NBA culture.

LeBron James told ESPN with a sly smile. "Channing made him pay for a dinner. The check came and he said, 'Give it to the billionaire.' So, yeah. We know about it."

Everytime he makes a play it is like, 2.2 billion, that's great.
When Cleveland played his former team, the Toronto Raptors, in the Eastern Conference semifinals, the subject of Calderon's deep pockets came up on the Raptors' group text, and Kyle Lowry, sources said, argued that the billions must be coming from the bacon. 

He owns a pig farm.  84 million to make over a career isn't bad.  Time for the finals.  Am bored and it is already set in stone.

Average margin of victory for both conference finals series is 25 points per game so far. NBA is a shitty product.

Lol.  It doesn't change.  The next one between G.S. and Houston should be close.  When you watch it through the years many things are more easy to predict.  Oracle is an amazing home court advantage though.  Though it is located in Oakland it was amusing to see Klay at a Giants game and not shitty Oakland.

I've been to both areas and ballparks and it is like the South Side of Chicago and the White Sox compared to the North Side and the Cubs.

The Warriors played in SF first and they will be back there in 2 years.

Draymond Green blew it!
:lolsy:

Harden still doin Harden things, Chris Paul was the real MVP.

That game was decent, still way too many soft fouls being called on both sides of the ball.

Still riding Houston.  8.5 dogs in that game.  Riding them till the end and I hope to God, just another word for life, that the Celtics finish out the Cavs.  It will be a slaughter with how weak and pathetic the Celtics are.

Save Steph for a playoff series that matters.  I was really wrong.  Durant was amazing.  Thank God I didn't put money on it.  It's just one game but it changed my mind.  Warriors get another NBA title.  Will be interesting if Klay stays with them next year.  This could be a Bulls type dynasty.

:hmm:

Chris Paul gonna miss game 6. Hopefully hes back for game 7 in Houston, should be a doozy.

Correction: if the Warriors dont get Iggy back Saturday there might not be a game 7.

If the Rockets don't get Paul back for both games it is over.

Rockets lose by 30 and every fan on their instagram feed is blaming the referees. :lol:

Harden ain't shit without Paul. He gives up way too easily when things arent going his way.

Real question though, did Boston and Houston only go up 3-2 to make this all not look rigged? Money talks, why wouldn't they milk this for every cent they can get? This is the world's greatest reality show and they want as many episodes as possible. :shrug:

Interesting game 7 without Love.  Have no clue where this one is going to go now.  I love game sevens in any playoff. It is 22-30 in the second quarter Celts.  Without Love am liking the Celts in this one.  You have five guys on the court.  Lebron by pure will power I don't think will win this one.  2.5 spread at the Garden even without Love. 

Just make it an interesting game Lebron.

Celts will be destroyed by the Warriors.  Without Paul, or a heavily injured Paul as it is more than just a hammy, the Warriors will crush the Celtics if that is who they match up with which I am guessing they will.  The talent level between the two is ridiculous.

Unexpected injuries.  The wildcard thrown into the deck but it's sports and to be expected.  Sometimes players surprise you.

I expected that outcome when it mattered most.  Sometimes I let my hatred of the East plus the guy is like Jordan but with a weaker supporting cast, overcome common sense.  Lebron beat this weak team.  He won't beat the Warriors.  And yes, put your money and fandom on the Warriors for game seven at Toyota.  Quality automobiles.  The Goodyear's beat the General Electics's.  Good for them.

Just get on with Finals.  I would bet a months rent on the Warriors winning game seven with Paul hurt.  Actually I wouldn't but you get the point.  Have been right almost all of the time following the sport.  Yet everytime I brag I seem to lose so am trying not to.

The Celtics dont belong in the finals with that garbage ass 3 point shooting. I almost felt bad for them, but then I realized its Boston. :haha:

Cavs match up OK against the Rockets. They'll get ran over by the Warriors. If LeBron manages to steal a title this year..:laugh2:
