Uhh, by two.

Durant, Westbook, Ibaka and all the other Thunder stars beat a team without CP3, Jordan, Reddick, and Griffin because of a last second shot. Uhh, that's a Thunder loss, my friend.

But go on, keep thinking Hayward and Hood are on the same level as Durant and Westbrook. Wow.

Uh, you were still wrong. Uhh, no, that's still a win, my friend.

Yep, everyone here truly believes Hayward and Hood are on the same level as Durant and Westbrook :rolleyes:. God, you're a moron.

So, then are you arguing that the Clippers sans the above are likely to beat the Jazz tonight?

So, I would think someone of your advanced b-ball IQ might have grasped by this point that the outcomes of sporting events are not necessarily transitive.

Let's see. Timberwolves beat Warriors, Warriors beat Jazz, so then Timberwolves naturally beat the Jazz. Right?

Did I say yet that you're a moron?
 
What was the over for your bet and how much you got riding on it? (The second part of the question id's kind of personal so don't answer if you don't want to)

42.5... Was a little late to the party... Just $200 but I'm a cheapskate so I'd like to get that money back.
 
Well, we almost do. Utah holds the tiebreaker over Memphis, IINM. So Memphis would need to win 2 more to finish ahead of Utah (if Utah wins out). Grizzlies play 2 games against GS (W's going for record), @Dallas and @LAC. Clippers likely play their starters at home. Dallas fighting for playoff positioning. Memphis will NOT win 2 games.

Utah would have tiebreaker over Dallas if they win on the 11th. So only TWO things need to happen: Utah wins all 4 (Jazz will be favored in all 4 games) and Memphis loses 3 games (likely).

Utah is NOT favorited to win in Denver on Sunday.

I remember it being 40.5 at one point and I was a little late too.

At least we still have a chance. Im a cheapskate (you have no idea) too. I used change that I have been saving for like 7 years to make my bet. And I only made the bet because I thought it was a slam dunk easy money bet. I would never risk that much money if not for both of those things lining up at the same time.
 
Uhh, Jazz had most points at the final buzzer against Houston two weeks ago. No one counts the Jazz having a win in that game. (Favors stepped out of bounds.)

Hey, kid, I'm an athlete and no athlete looks at the scoreboard to see who won or lost. We know it in our hearts, in our guts. Athletes don't need scorekeeping dweebs in glasses telling us if we won or lost.

Non-athletes need scoreboards. You need a scoreboard so guess what that makes you?

Look, old man, I love the Latvian Gang banger as much as the next guy. And yeah, I think Michael Rappaport should win an Oscar, but on everything else, I think you are a few fries short of a happy meal. Did you know the NBA released its 2 min report and indicated that There was not conclusive evidence that Favors stepped out of bounds? But I get it I get, you trolling. It's likely a moderately enjoyable experience. Btw, I'd take Allan Houston over Melo any day of the week and twice on Sunday.

Uhh, Sugar Ray Leonard beat Marvin Hagler, Hagler beat Tommy Hearns....so then Leonard beats Hearns. Right?
Yup, that's exactly what happened. Leonard beat Hearns. It's called the transitive property and it doesn't just apply to mathematics. Works in sports, too, kid.

Want to see it work in basketball?

Knicks beat Nets, Nets beat Jazz...therefore Knicks will beat Jazz.
I was at the game. Yup, Knicks beat Jazz.

Not a bitch. Unlike you. But what else would I expect from a Knicks fan?

Holy sh** but you're dumb.
 
Seriously, do you Jazz fans even watch basketball?

Uhh, a week ago the Clippers rested the same players -- Chris Paul, DeAndre Jordan, JJ Reddick, and no Blake Griffin -- and the Clippers still beat, get this, the THUNDER!

Did you not know that? You feel because the Clips are not playing their big four the Utah Jazz are now a lock for the sixth seed! Good God, folks, get a grip on reality.

Come on, people, know the sport! Clippers without CP3, DeAndre Jordan, JJ Reddick, and Blake beat the Thunder of all teams (who didn't rest anyone).

What a pest! Why do you do this? Who are you really?

You're married, right? Does your wife know you made the bet?

Ya she was against it. But I told her to think of it like an investment. I figured I had a high probability of winning and the payoff is quite nice.

She wanted me to spend it on a tattoo lol.

If you win you need to use the money to get a giant jazz logo on your back or a mural of AB holding a rally churro.

Leonard 'beat' Hagler with the help of a judge who scored a close fight 118-110.. not the best way to illustrate your point.

Good idea lol.

I think if I win I'm actually going to get a really nice stroller and a ps4 with the new uncharted 4 game.

If you think logic plays a role in Melo's thinking you haven't been paying attention. Admin should definitely ban him for trolling.
