    Knew it'd only be a matter of time, but it's official now, ads on jerseys starting in 2017. Philly's first, I'm sure other teams will be right behind.

    @Mike Tyson and @asvdawg congrats on your raptors advancing to the east conf finals. very surprised drake wasn't court-side at that game 7--especially since he claims to be an "ultimate fan" and he obviously has plenty of money. i don't have favorite NBA team---i just watch because i like basketball--but i hope the raptors win because i don't like seeing the same ol same ol teams make it to the finals every year--it's boring.

    @Kon @Big Mitch @MagnuM @Jakey @Poohdini and whoever else that wants to contribute...

    who do you guys have winning east and west conf finals and in how many games?

    i WANT the raptors to win, but THINK the cavs will win in 5

    i WANT the thunder to win, but THINK the warriors will win in 7, i guess

    the raptors have no chance against this rested cavs team, absolutely none. but making it to the ECF was an accomplishment in itself for this core.

    as for the west, i f---ing hate curry, so OKC in 6.

    Honestly at this point im just happy we made it this far they might get sweeped and I would still be proud.. expecting cavs in 5 or 6 max

    and I want Thunder to pull the upset in 7

    Drake was probably still in LA celebrating his SNL s--- smh

    Cavs d--- near gonna sweep their way into the finals. Makes you appreciate the Shaq/Kobe 15-1 postseason back in 01.

    Yeah Cavs are by far the best team in the East. I feel like Lowry has finally picked up his form in the playoffs but don't think it's quite enough to take them over the line, the Cavs will be in good shape from the big rest they've had.

    Someone just posted a video of Curry in warm ups going 5/5 from half court, d---..

    Raptors gotta steal game 1 to have any chance, Cavs will probably be a little rusty for a half after that long break.

    The key for Raptors is for Lowry AND DeRozan to bring their A games.. out of 14 games Lowry came out for 4 and derozan came out for like 3

    If Lowry and Derozan bring their A games then maybe the series goes 5 games instead of 4.

    westbrook didn't get discouraged by his early struggles and kept his team in the game when OKC's backs were against the wall. he had an incredible 3rd quarter and the thunder's defense tightened up late in the game. durant missed too many shots down the stretch, but the thunder were still able to hold on despite that.

    good game 1

    Not that I thought he was, but Durant is definitely not coming to Boston now. I wish local radio would shut the f--- up about it.

    Hopefully we don't get screwed for a third time in the lottery tomorrow.
