No Damn Way The NBA Wants The Pelicans In The Playoffs. Everyone Should Be On This...

bro change the avatar. its pretty old now.

I will when I get around to it.

I said two-three years ago Westbrook was OKC's best player. That's why he is in my avatar.

I guess I could find a Yadier Molina avatar since it's baseball season.

Okl City plays street ball ..it does not win in nba

Never has and never wil

[CMNoney]

Dumbest post ever.

The NBA couldn't careless about who the 8th seed is.

Neither of them have a chance in hell of beating Golden State.

[KiDBaZkiT]

I have lost more $ in the NBA trying to determine what it wants and how it will rig this and that and at the end of the day its really only a sport you can bet a couple times a week.

[GoBlue77]

injuries determine "the script"

If Lebron, Harden, CP3 got injured, those respective teams are done.

[TheMoneyShot]

Odds are around -202. Lay the k.... and get yourself $500 tonight.

[emkee13]

Well done, you mushed the Spurs.

[TheMoneyShot]

Fuk u Spurs. You're out in the 1st round. Mickey mouse performance. Damn weak tit.

[R.P. McMurphy]

Buy this theory a bit more with a healthy KD. But since that's not the case what does it matter if Okc or Nola get in for their 1st rnd exit? Both teams have 1 guy playing that matters and this gives the league a handful of games to showcase Davis a bit. Guess Spurs didn't get the memo.

[smitch124]

Um maybe there is no fix and the team that wins the game wins the game.

[TheMoneyShot]

Oh well... I'll take the heat on this. I just don't understand OKC. When do you see a team with a Westbrook and Durant... and they don't make the playoffs? Unreal talent. Yes, injuries throughout the entire year... but... man... you have to make the playoffs with a team like that. Crazy. You won't ever see this happen again in your life... with 2 of the best scorers on one team.

lol okc is a one man joke. they saved themselves some serious embarrassment

[BigDofBA]

OKC is missing two of their top three players. This team isn't remotely close to what they are when healthy.

The Pelicans are the better team right now and the chips have fallen their way this season to grab that 8th playoff spot.

Golden State would sweep both teams so it doesn't matter anyway.

I won't be surprised at all if the Pelicans win. Is San Antonio playing everyone?

I think this is actually better for OKC that they didn't get in he playoffs this year.

Not surprised Pelicans won either.

Get aa new fave team. Okc will NEVER win anything with westbrook.

[t-wizzle]

Who knows what will happen to OKC. Watch Durant and Westbrook leave in a year or two.

They have won the West with Westbrook.

In the Finals against the Heat when Harden disappeared and KD got shut down Westbrook was the guy that carried them and the only reason those games were close.

If you're talking championships then you may be right but other than the Spurs and Heat, no one has really won much the last several years.

Your handle is Lakerboy. Are you not a Laker fan now that they suck?

If everyone leaves OKC and they're irrelevant in two years I'll have a Steven Adams avatar sucka.

But if they really suck maybe I can request my handle be changed to Caveliersboy. Lmao

I'm a laker fan forever. Lakers will win another title before okc wins even one.

[lakerboy]

Btw Lakers did better than okc this season.

[new era]

Should've kept Harden. O well.

[BigDofBA]

Btw Lakers did better than okc this season.

Actually 16 teams did better than OKC.

OKC is average without KD and Ibaka just like any other team would he without two of their best players.

I watched OKC give up like 37 first quarter points to the 76ers this year. They weren't good.

The Lakers don't even play into this discussion. They won't sniff the playoffs for at least three to five years. When they do get back with me.

[jjgold]

Nobody would even want Westbrook in the NBA because players would boycott and not want to play with a ball hog

[BigDofBA]

JJFold is right. They should deport Westbrook and force him to play in Turkey.

We would be better served to watch Kobe's teamball when he comes back next year instead of this trash.

Lakers will get a top 5 pick for not making the playoffs. Okc?

[BigDofBA]

Yeah you're right.

OKC won't get a player that will help them. They would have been better tanking after KD got hurt again for like the third time.

Lakers are the greatest franchise ever. Of course they have way more resources than OKC.

With that said, they aren't doing shit anytime soon.

They aren't making the playoffs next year and they probably won't the year after either.

I'm going to laugh my ass off when LA makes a huge push to get Westbrook when his contract is up.

[Pill Gates]

I feel bad for the thunder fans..the Based God Curse is just too damn strong.

their best players missed a lot of games and the West was very difficult this year

OKC would've had a top 4 seed had they been in the East

New Orleans should be more competitive against GS than OKC would've been

Why would the NBA want to see OKC get destroyed?

Regardless, this wasn't rigged, and if everything was rigged, maybe the NBA would help out the Knicks once in a while and stop giving lottery wins to Cleveland and San Antonio (I think the Spurs won the lottery 2 out of the 3 times they were in it, landing them Robinson and Duncan).

[saints1856]

Pelicans came to play last night. AD, Tyreke, Eric Gordon, Jrue Holiday, Ryan Anderson... Guys, this team has got good players and can play with ANYBODY. Oh wait I said that yesterday on this thread too

[jjgold]

I do not think Westbrook can play team ball

He takes too many bad shots at end of games and that is what gets him in trouble
