And then there were two. Ironically, @realBitcoinDog survived his Lakers' Red Wedding event. @BlokchainB, who nearly forgot to submit a pick, was the only other survivor.

Which of these two will survive another round?

SemifinalsSemifinals

  • Knicks vs Magic
  • Thunder vs Spurs

Both have used the Thunder, so this will likely be an Eastern Conference shootout.

Lakers suck. They are old and slow. The Wembyless Spurs ran them ragged all over the court.

Also Ayton did nothing for me in fantasy when I needed him the most. Dropped his ass right after the game.

I hope the Spurs get Giannis.

I went to bed before halftime but I thought the Lakers actually looked better and there were just more things working out for SA.

Apparently, I’m incapable of creating a survivor pool that isn’t a bloodbath

Lakers did look like they were going to mount a comeback but the Spurs were just too fast for them in the second half. They were at the basket on almost every possession.

Fox hit some big 3s as well. Any time the Lakers looked like they were going to make a game of it Fox hit them with another dagger.

Clutch player of the year at work!

I was discussing possible landing spots for Giannis with my nephew the other day and which teams have the resources trade for him. The Spurs came up on our discussion, and it sounded like a pretty legit trade, since Spurs has picks.

Giannis for Castle, Sohan, bunch of other guys to balance the salary, and 2 to 3 first round picks. Maybe throw in some second round picks in there as well? What do you guys think?

reply

I would rather see him go to the Spurs than the Knicks. If Wemby and Giannis could stay healthy that might be a duo that can beat OKC.

reply

Yep. Fox, Champagnie, Vassell, Giannis, Wemby. That is one scary looking starting line up.

reply

I think Harper will work his way into the starting lineup, before too long.

reply

Not yet, but definitely soon. Will be sooner with Castle gone but probably longer if the roster stays as is. He's showing a lot of promise, getting big minutes and making big plays late in games.

Ron Harper is back? Might as well. He will be the Philip Rivers of the NBA.

I asked AI if Dylan Harper and Ron Harper were related and it said "Yes, Dylan Harper is the son of former NBA champion Ron Harper, making them father and son."

Haha thanks for clearing that up. Just incase I didn't get the "is the son of" part.

That’s probably my favorite landing spot for Giannis. Twin Towers 2.0!

reply

So Lakers lost? Were they even one of the choices?!

reply

You could have picked them against the Spurs, like most of us

Shoot I can’t choose the Knicks or thunder huh? So I gotta root against my own team just to beat dog?

reply

You’re free to root for your Knickerbockers. Just think of this as a hex bet.

reply

No way!

GIVE ME THE KNICKS!

reply

Sorry bud, you should have believed in them (or yourself) to make it farther.

reply

Give me the Spurs if Wemby is playing if he is still out I’ll take the magic

reply

Ok, Magic it is

I don’t understand what options do I have?

reply

Ok I see I picked the #1 seeds and both won cuz I’m obviously right. Can’t use them now tho. That was Nagic Thunder

And ppl thought Lakers would beat Spurs. The fools!

Just for the sake of delicious irony, I’ll take the Knicks! @BlokchainB think of it as a hex bet. You might want your Knicks to win…

WELL SO DO I! 😈
