Well, karma is a bitch and the Warriors are down 2-0

Thus far, Kings - Warriors has been fun, also like Clippers-Suns.  Thinking the Warriors run is done and we'll see a new NBA champion. After beating the Warriors don't know how far the Kings will go, nevertheless, they're fun.

This is the first time all four California teams made the playoff and it’s only the fourth time even 3 of them made it. Makes sense because for the past 4 decades the Clippers, Kings and Warriors have basically had one good stretch each and been terrible otherwise. And then when two of them got good (LAC/GS), the Lakers were awful. It would be the 5th time 3 of them had made it but the Warriors were the 8 and lost twice in the play in a couple years ago.

 

Also, all 5 teams from the Pacific Division made the playoffs and are seeded 3 through 7.

If they had gotten tangled up and Sabonis grabbed Draymond’s arm in a similar fashion, and Draymond reacted by punching Sabonis in the chest, he’d absolutely get suspended. I don’t see how this should be any different. It’s such an easy call to suspend him.

And like you said, his history matters. If the roles were reversed, Sabonis might have escaped a suspension because he doesn’t have a history of picking up flagrant fouls like Draymond does (though I’d still say Sabonis should get suspended in that scenario). You’re not going to get away with things when you have Draymond’s history.

Bucks are trying to blow another game.

How do you not call timeout to advance the ball in a tie game with 0.5 seconds left? And then Giannis didn’t even really attempt to shoot

They tried to throw the ball away twice in the last 10 seconds too. Once was on the play where they tried to call Lowry for a foul and then overturned it and then Giannis was so desperate to not get fouled after they won the tip that he tried to throw it out of bounds.

it's hard to get 2 future all-stars in a trade and still lose it, but the bulls did

And yet still by far the best return in the three Butler trades.
