How does Proint feel about Chris "Mad Dog" Russo (4:32 to 4:55) saying that Jimmy Butler is a little overrated and not a great player?



Anyway. I just can't believe the Western Conference is so wide open after the OKC Thunder. The Houston Rockets are going to get that 2nd seed!
Usually when a team is ending a five-year long playoff drought. They'll sneak in as a 7th or 8th seed. Very rare to be a 2nd seed right away. LOL

🙄

If the Houston Rockets are the 2 seed they'll be favored against whatever 7 seed ends up in that spot from the random Play-In Tournament. I'd feel a little nervous, for sure, if the Warriors are that 7th seed. I'd rather not see the Golden State Warriors fall into the Play-In Tournament. Just get that 6th seed outright please. They've had our number for too many years. Especially in the playoffs. My fragile heart couldn't take losing to the Warriors in the playoffs yet AGAIN! On the flip side the Rockets may just spank the Warriors in a playoff series this year. And I'll feel satisfied and happy about it.

Knicks are 1st rd bounce

Jokic is absurd. Giving him ten days off like that could lead to a nuggets championship

Dm will still talk shit even if he wins a 2nd

They'll lose eventually, whether it's in the WCF's or Finals, and it'll be in large due to him being one of the biggest defensive liabilities in the league.

But muh triple doubles

We need Nikola Jokic playing so Alperen Sengun is extra motivated. Sengun always plays his best vs. his idol.
Rockets may play the Nuggets in the second round. What a matchup! The 2 seed is home court in that series.
When Jokic doesn't play, like last Sunday, the Rockets play worse vs. Denver. When Jokic plays we play our best.

Is the LeBron James and Stephen A. Smith beef real? All because he's doing his job? It's fair to criticize his son. An NBA player.
Is this what the morning sports talk-shows have come to? ESPN spent over 15 minutes on this one segment. I want my sports!!
