2017 NBA playoffs

[Shadowlight]

Not quite official but it seems as if newly crowned champs and their ******* coach Steve Kerr, who by the way was one of the worst caste announcers I had heard do NBA games before he became a head coach, are skipping the traditional visit to The White House. Through all the years when teams visit you can bet perhaps half of those teams did not like the sitting President at the time (Obama, Bush 1 and 2, Clinton, Reagan etc.) but they went to honor the tradition despite those differences. These new wave punks today throw out all that history not to mention ignore a nationwide system that affords them the opportunity to play and gain enormous fame and wealth. Spoiled punk ******** and racists too. FU Warriors. I never warmed to this team from the get go for the obvious reasons but this will only add to my contempt for them.

Its safe to say that Steve Kerr has joined CF's Hall of Shame with fellow members, Rex "fat phuck' Ryan, Black Jack Del Rio, John Elway, The Walrus, Pycho Harbaugh and the Rooney clan. Have I left off anyone that deserves to be in this vile club? Please list the phucks I can not remember. look forward to the responses. Wow Steve Kerr has indeed sold his soul to the devil of anti-white people.

 

[La France Blanche]

I heard they're still deciding. Trump should make it easy for them and tell them they're not invited.

I don't follow the NBA but hear about it enough to understand the Warriors put together a stacked team and were expected to win the Championship anyways. In a league with no defense and diluted talent this is no big feat. How whites can be fans of the NBA is beyond me.

 

[celticdb15]

Durant literally jumped ship from OKC to join Western Conference rivals, and an already proven, and stacked team in Golden State . Can't beat em join em.

 

[white is right]

Contrast this with Dirk who after losing in 06', didn't panic and jump ship to a loaded championship caliber team. A victory in OKC would have been much sweeter than joining the Harlem Globetrotters West Coast edition.

"Sleeze Kurr" & Kevin 'Duhrant' can both p1$$ off and feast on $#1t....as can that f@99ot lonsman Adam Silverstein.

NBA is ghetto carnival paid for by Federal Reserve backed companies.

ESPN has been showing a three part show on the 1980's rivalry between the Lakers and the Celtics. Somewhat interesting since I was watching the entire thing play out in real time back when. The game today is a little different today and much more reliant on the three point shot and more rugged and the racial element between the two teams was played up back then. Interestingly Bird played along with some tough characters on those teams like Cornbread Maxwell and trouble maker ML Carr. Those guys were not hung up on the fact that Larry was the superstar and they played hard. But jealousy started to creep in from other teams and it came to a head when the Celtics new rival the Pistons started mouthing off in 1987. First it was that creep Dennis Rodman (who apparently likes to hang out in North Korea WTF) who said Bird was overrated then their star Isiah Thomas chimed in and for a few days it became a big story. Thomas, who was a prick, apologized to Bird in an awkward press conference and sadly the Celtics lost to the Lakers in the finals that season and it was Larry's last finals appearance.
You can't make too big a deal about different things that happened back when but it strikes me around that time for the most part the NBA glided into a league that seemed very territorial by the black players and that became much more pronounced in the years that followed. And it became more about the black "superman" players rather than teams. Kobe Bryant was the perfect example of what the new black star represented. Flashy athletic and a little bit selfish which is known as a ball hog. But he was on winning teams so that type of player was and still is the standard type of player teams seek out.
There has never been a white superstar to replace Larry and it has been 30 years and counting. Certainly Dirk would be the closest but it is striking how the white star/leaders in the NBA have pretty much vanished and more and more the NBA feels like some sort of black club that has kept a lid on white players. Although it is hard to imagine that pattern changing in the next 5 to 10 years it is also hard to believe another Larry Bird will never ever exist again in the NBA. I don't see one coming down the pike but that could change.
And the players today are much more spoiled than the players from yesteryear. Teams were fighting nail and tooth in the 80's but today the game seems more leisurely as players from losing teams accept their lot without much resistance. Everybody seems fat and happy as the white players for the most part exist on the periphery. I know the finals scored well ratings wise but overall the NBA numbers have fallen off especially in markets where the teams stink. Whatever the case the league better find a team or two that are going to put up a fight against the Warriors because during the 80's the competition was stiff. The Celtics had to deal with the Bucks, Pistons and the 76ers and the Lakers had to deal with Houston. None of their rivals were pushovers.
This Golden State team feels bloodless and for the most part the league feels that way too. I know a lot of people who stopped watching basketball after the 80's or early 90's. And the departure of Larry Bird was the main reason.

The NBA is just boring. Every dunk and 3 point shot to win a game has been done ad finitum over the last 20 years. I love hockey and yet it can be boring as well with the dump and chase mentality and the bulked up goaltenders. I remember when the NBA used to play music for the home team's offense. Yes offense. I can see trying to amp up the crowd on defense but it got real lame when they would play music the other way. That was and is the sorry state of the NBA.

Another thing that stood out to me on the Celtics/Lakers rivalry show on ESPN is the racial divide among fans. In general the black fans and the kids from the hood were rooting hard for the Lakers and the white folk were behind the Celtics. Even the black players on the Celtics were taking heat for being on the team. Guys like Maxwell were seen by some as Uncle Toms. Even more grotesque were the Boston blacks who told Magic they were rooting for him. Again I want to reiterate by 1988 the NBA quickly slipped into a black dominated league and has not looked back ever since. In fact one could argue the black fans may have lost a few battles as the Celtics won three champions but at the end of it all they WON THE WAR. The NBA is not even remotely a white driven league. Prior to the Bird era in the mid 70's the Celtics had a bevy of top white players including "Hondo" and pogo stick Dave Cowens an undersized center who stood tall against all the great centers back then. They won two championships. In 1977, Bill Walton with the help of a couple of other key white teammates, took down the black 76ers and Dr. J.
But enough of the history what the sports media ignores is the fact that the majority of black fans DO NOT ROOT for white players no matter the sport and that the reverse is not true at all because countless white fans root heartily for black athletes. There are few black hockey fans and the only reason they got interested in tennis was because of Serena and Venus Williams. Caste Football members are an exception to this rule but it is quite a contrast. And it sheds a big light on blacks as to their true motivation in sports and one of the key things that drive black athletes and fans is their sheer delight in humiliating white athletes.

One final piece on the Celtics/ Lakers rivalry three part show that has been airing on ESPN stations the past week. I have even watched a lot of it more than once. Living outside Boston by roughly three hours I was at one time rather clever as a youngster--you lose that as you age ha--and having followed Larry Bird during his famous senior season at Indiana State I said to myself I need a piece of this action. So I bought what was called a long range AM radio and noticed by using a battery and turning the radio in a certain direction that I could pick up the Celtics games on radio. And if anyone has been watching the ESPN series you will hear the infamous play by play radio broadcaster for the Celtics, Johnny Most. I am an East Coast person and believe me I like to hear blood and guts and this guy had that and then some. He was ELECTRIC. None of that laid back velvety smooth Los Angeles crap like the Lakers announcer Chick Hearn. Heck I don't even care for baseball legend Vin Scully. The guy bores me ha. To listen to Most and his gravelly voice announce a game was a once in a lifetime experience and to listen to him go WILD over the things Larry Bird would do on the court just added to the immense fun. People outside the area complained he was too much of a homer but I ate it up. He would slam players from other teams and came up with all sorts of put down expressions. He loved calling guys crybabies. He would call Isiah Thomas a phony (spot on) and labelled Rick Mahorn and Jeff Ruland " Mcfilthy and McNasty."
Having lived and breathed that entire era in which I managed to watch Bird play in person two or three times as well ( they scheduled games in Hartford CT), I can honestly say that the fever pitch EUPHORIA I experienced when the Celtics won the Championship three times were the greatest moments in my life as a rabid sports fan. Sure as a little kid there were certain moments but I processed it a bit differently so no need bringing those times up but I think the closest I ever came to that height of euphoria again was when Roger Federer emerged from the scene and started bagging majors.
And there have been moments don't get me wrong. For instance the Pats two recent Super Bowl victories caused a great deal of joy but nothing really has compared to those Celtics. And for me it was all about Bird. I rooted for Bird so much I wasn't that big a fan of Kevin McHale (great as he was) because I didn't want anyone to obscure the genius of Larry.
So as I watch these ESPN shows it brings back so many memories good and bad but mostly good. I remember the great fun Bird and Bill Walton had playing together and the beautiful team work. Bird represented the great white hope but for all his fundamentals he also had that schoolyard urban flair and during his prime was spectacular to watch. And he blended in seamlessly with the black players because he had no airs ( just a simple hardworking player from the country) and he was the consummate team player. Before Bird there was never a forward who could pass like Larry. And his passes were often sublimely creative.
Like a junkie who needs his next hit I am forever trying to recapture the supreme JOY I used to have watching Larry and the Celtics win often and big. Sadly in the world of sports since, I haven't been able to reach that level of joy and at the rate things are going I could go to my grave without ever experiencing what now seems a once in a lifetime moment in time.

Enjoyed the Celtics /Lakers rivalry special minus the typical black power undertones it had in it. It was awesome to see so much high quality film from their heated matchups! Sure enjoyed Larry Legend and The Celtics! Truly the Golden era of the NBA. Both teams would have kicked around the Cavs or Warriors with superior team chemistry, toughness, and tremendous ball movement. Sadly we will Likely never see a powerhouse 75% white team in this day and age.

 

[Ambrose]

We won't see too many white basketball players because smart white parents don't want their children anywhere near blacks. Our cultures are so far apart now and getting further by the year.

The Celtics were a racially polarizing team in the 1980s, because they were the rare NBA team that had multiple White stars and White starters, and because they were so good year in and year out. Not only were Bird and McHale widely hated, but Danny Ainge was the most hated player in the league, other than maybe Bill Lambeer. Ainge was a clean living Mormon, but played aggressively and occasionally purposely, but far more often accidentally, ran into black players. Lambeer was kind of clumsy and his reputation as a bully was ridiculous given his suburban upbringing and his even saying that he had never been in a fight in his life prior to joining the Pistons. Ainge and Lambeer played hard and didn't avoid contact and were villified for it.

It's interesting that the closest thing to the racially polarizing Celtics of the '80s we have today are the Patriots, another Boston team. And of course the Red Sox have often been called "racist" for various (ridiculous) reasons, going back to when they were the last MLB to have a black player on their roster. And Boston sports fans are often called "racist," ala the "national teaching moment" provided recently courtesy of Adam Jones.

All this in a liberal city in what has long been the most liberal state in the country.

If I recall Delladova was widely criticized by DWFs/BSPN/Jealous Blacks last year for playing hard nosed defense against Curry. In the NBA you get penalized for playing defense while white. The NBA has become a long running joke. My dad was a big basketball fan and as a kid we watched alot of NBA - late 80s/early 90s - I think the last time I watched the NBA with him was the second Bulls - Jazz finals in 1998. Since then my dad rarely mentions the NBA and just talks about how bad the game is - no defense or fundamentals - tons of traveling. I guess the silver lining in this is that the absurd amount of money BSPN has poured into the NBA is part of the reason the company has been having so much difficulty as of late.

Thats why the blacks lie about John Stockton being"dirty" because he was effective and good hence them trying to save face because he beat them down so much
