Dynasty

Get rid of La Russa.

I thought Gobert and Mitchell were at odds with one another? Either way, that core was never getting passed the semifinals.

Can we even call it the "Power 5" anymore?

Denver is a pretty underrated hockey market so I'm happy for all of them.

I like those colors. It's one of the schemes I'd like to see the Clippers adopt if (or when) they ever change their identity.

A nice SoCal nod.

Yes, although it's just a regular season series, I know Yankees fans that are still bitter about 2017 and this adds fuel to their fire.

Didn't watch; didn't need to. I knew the eventual outcome.

I'm just surprised the NBA season finished before the NHL's. That doesn't seem to happen very often... at least not in this decade.

i'm in a weird transitional state where i'm starting to recognize the black gear doesn't fit with the Adidas version of the Avs as much as the original, but also still not 100% on board with the blue. I'm seeking help and soon i will make it. 

Same feeling. I thought black was fine for a while, but seeing them use blue instead has kind of altered my perception. Compared to the blue, black made it too muddied and made it seem that it was the second color of the scheme over blue. They look better without the black, but the blue still feels weird to me so it might take a good while for me to adjust... but I'm pretty confident I will.

Milwaukee has lost around nine of their last ten. I was hopefully they would be the one team in the poor NL Central to keep the Cards from first, but it might end up being too close throughout the season.

Forgot about @TruColor. There are several different websites that list the team's associated colors and of course, they are all slightly different.

Maroon/Burgundy is such a hard color to distinguish, though looking online, I don't see a difference in both of Washington's previous and current jerseys.

Something I just noticed about is the colors for Washington via Pantone. From what it looks like, they changed the shade of the burgundy to more of a maroon color.

Was this announced at any point during the unveiling process because I must've missed it. I also haven't seen the new and old uniforms side-by-side, so I don't know how different they are to one another.

I knew they were gonna change even before the rumors or leaks; THIS is the Cavaliers. Like almost half the league, they don't want a consistent identity and apparently they are fine with that. They just want to make money with an every-now-and-then "fresh" look and when it gets stale, they spin the wheel.

They'll probably either change the shade of colors again or add a new one in about 4-5 years.

People get so mad at an honest statement. 

It did come off as a little arrogant on Lacob's behalf (and no one likes hearing arrogance), but I don't think that was on the level of disdain which revolved around Durant's decision.

Hopefully they'll decide on if they need their third color or not. You can't have either navy or black and choose to not include it in the main uniforms.

The fact they are only a few games back behind PIT and CHC shows how bad those teams are.

Miami isn't winning the series, even if they win Game 6. I give the Celtics credit where its due with their defense, but the Heat team itself has also been a no-show for a majority of the series, injuries or not. I hate to say it, but their peak was the 2020 Finals. Honestly, the Bucks are better than this team.

I'm not trying to be ignorant, but is there anything else you could really do with Denver/Colorado besides mountains and the state flag? That's all I ever hear about when that area is mentioned.

Boston's defense pisses me off.

Golden State is ABSOLUTELY winning the title. Like someone mentioned earlier, it was a little easy to write them off because they were down for a few years with significant injuries. They're back though, so for me, it's really just a "nothing to see here" moment. And even though they've only gone against one-man teams so far, that's not their fault.

I can only say "tough sh!t," to be honest.

There is part of me that finds the possiblity of another Miami-Dallas final quite fascinating. 

That's what I want to see. They've already met twice, it could potentially be one of those little championship rivalries you see (not BOS-LAL level but at their own level).

Pittsburgh loses in heartbreaking fashion

Usually they're on the other end, in football as well.

Lol Suns are never winning an NBA title. Arizona sports just sucks ass.

It doesn't really help that Milwaukee also doesn't have their second best player playing. But excuses aside, a Game 7 was definitely not out of the line for this series. It wouldn't surprise me if either team advances as I think they are fairly matched. I'm not overlooking the Heat though; they're a number one seed for a reason.

Boy, it would be a shame if we had a Sunbelt team in the Cup again.
