I think Harden has to win MVP. Willing Houston to victory on a nightly basis while Curry sits out 4th quarters. Don't want to punish a guy for playing on a dominant team but I can't ignore the fact that Harden has higher usage and is playing 5 more minutes per game than Curry while maintaining nearly the same level of efficiency.

Whether you like The Beard or not it is going to be hard to deny him that MVP.
I'd love for Curry to win MVP but I'd rather Draymond win defensive player of the year over anything else. I do think it'll be tough keeping it away from Curry if they finish with 67 wins simply because of how absurd of a win total it is. Regardless, both are worthy candidates and I really don't have a problem with either winning though selfishly want the guys on GS to win as many as possible.

No. I lived in Oakland for 6 months from 2011-2012 and never really had an NBA team because of where I'm originally from. Right when I got my job and moved out there, I became a Warriors fan. Of course they went 23-43 that year, had traded away their best player at the time (Monta Ellis) and no one knew if Steph would get over his ankle injuries.
With the new arena opening up in 2017, it would've been about 5 blocks from where I worked (cue bitterness).
Cavs should probably let Boston win tonight. They've locked up the 2 seed and can't get the 1 seed, so it's a good chance to rest everyone. Also, Boston winning would put some distance between them and Brooklyn for the 7 seed (especially if Brooklyn loses to Washington). Boston is a better first-round draw than Brooklyn.

A chart with the NBA analogue for every president. I feel like this was made for me. Is it wrong that I laughed at the Len Bias/William Henry Harrison comparison?

Goddamnit, this fucking Spurs team was dead in the water all year and now they're gonna get a two seed. You just know they're gonna crush wannabe golden state as well, and then end Kyrie's chance at a ring this year on the other side, While Daniel "Dancin' Danny" Green gets his 2nd.
Thank god Duke won it all this year.

The whole franchise was fucking done in 2011 before the idiot Pacers swapped the rights to draft Kahwi Leonard straight up for George Hill. Gave them new life, and ultimately will deny LeBron/Kyrie one or more championships. Great going Indiana, you piece of shit team.
FYI, Spurs all get injured in two seasons and end up with the #1 pick, DeAndre Ayton. Ayton, Leonard and Kyrie, who leaves Cleveland after Lebron is washed up, are enough to win 5 titles.
