Re: NBA Finals

Spurs are just that good. Hoping for the sweep (in part so people will stop acting like the Grizz sucked for getting swept...taking that Spurs team to two OT games and another close loss isn't something to be ashamed of...)

Hoping against hope for Golden State to find a way to upset SA.

Best moment of the playoffs Grizz/Clips wasn't that ridic game-winner from Paul in game 2, it was the moment when everyone wasn't sure in Game 3 if Z-bo was about to kill Matt Barnes. The look on Barnes' face was priceless. He wasn't sure either.
