Re: NBA Playoffs 2015

Watching the Spurs play against the Clippers, I really think that Kawhi is one of the 5 best players in the NBA. He won't sniff the top-10 of the MVP race because he's not a 20+ ppg scorer, but his offensive game has improved so much over the past 2 years. When you combine that with the fact that h...

I just watched highlights of Celtics/Cavs game on ESPN. 1:55 of highlights. No Celtics offensive plays shown in a pretty tightly contested game, I know that the Celtics aren't what they used to be, but c'mon.

Speaking of AAA baseball. sad that I don't have time to catch a Twins game this week.

Seats can be had for 6$!

BTW, anyone ever up here I highly recommend getting a beer or two at Surly. 5$ for a pint (or 10 oz of the big beers) and really really good food.
