2014-5 NBA Season Thread: We Are North American Ballerz

Eighteen in a row! I'm not some bandwagon Hawks fan y'all. Been watching this team for 6 years now, and I can say that I have never been more happy to be a Hawks fan. This team is legit and CAN win the title.

Good times for Atlanta. Glad to see ex-Jazz players Paul Millsap, Kyle Korver and DeMarre Carroll contributing so much on a contender and getting recognition for it (especially Millsap).

I was really excited at the start of this NBA season. I was looking forward to LeBron's return to Cleveland (including a small hope Kyrie Irving would be exposed as a fraud, though it looks like that's only kind of happening), the possibility of the Spurs repeating (which they've never done), and the ascendance of Anthony Davis.

Instead, we get the Golden State Warriors and the Atlanta Hawks as the de facto best teams in the league. The Warriors weren't a surprise, but I'm just not equipped yet to accept the Hawks as a championship contender. I'm happy for the team and its fans, but it's still weird to see such a long-time nothing franchise doing so well. Miracles can happen, and it's good for the league as a whole to see this success in its second-tier markets.

It's so weird that Atlanta is a second-tier NBA market in the first place. It's like the Twin Cities being second-tier in the NHL, which is also a thing that happens.

As always, I'm pulling for the Memphis Grizzlies to break through.

Yeah, I love what the Hawks are doing. Even as a Raptors fan, I love me some Carroll. Underrated SF.

Parody in the NBA i never seen a year this wideopen. Anybody can win it all once April starts.

And yet, people often celebrate the NFL's "parity" despite the same AFC teams getting to the Super Bowl.

'Murica.

Just so you know, no one likes that you keep doing that.

What? That I post something? Or that the general, casual American sports fan often celebrates the National Football League for promoting its whole, "anyone can win in the NFL any day of the week because our sport is the fairest of them all" (while ignoring the same caste of AFC teams playing on the 1st Sunday in February over the last 20 years),...and reeks disgust of the National Basketball Association because "the same teams win over and over again since the league is rigged to help out big markets and the superstars."

I think what he's referring to is your ending your posts with "'Murica.".

Or, posting at all.

Or both.

I'd love to see some new blood in the Finals this year. A Warriors vs Hawks or Grizzlies vs Raptors Finals or something like that would be absolutely refreshing. I think it would kinda restore some of my interest in the NBA too, even if only fleeting.

But it's the NBA were talking about here. We're gonna end up getting, like, Lakers vs Patriots or something.

Yeah, Spurs-Cavaliers after all this long-overdue boat-rocking honestly wouldn't surprise me at all.

Incidentally, what the hell happened to the Pacers? I looked away for a second and now they really suck.
