NBA (Basketball)

2 of the 3 would be at home.  One game at a time.

[hajduk]

if GS make it, it will be for sure, insane games to watch!

[seanocono]

Agreed.  Every remaining game in the Playoffs will be great theater.

[Giles]

So tasteful…..

I feel like they could have added a couple more diamonds in the basketball. Looks like there are some wide-open spaces. 

[Giles]

Yeah, and look of all that unused space around "World Champions" and 2019.  Such missed opportunities…

[Wlemon]

Best not mention that. I don't want the person who designed this to be second-guessing him/herself. I'd hate to be on my death bed, wondering how many diamonds I could have stuffed in between the cracks of a ring.

This has inspired a new term for my vocabulary: gaud-awful.

Usually when Canada has a chance to show Americans the classy way to do things they don't wind up out-tackying the good ole USA, which, to their credit, is no mean feat.

[steelworker]

You want elegant  I refer you to this- subtle and understated-

For effortless tacky it's American all the way. All others can only aspire to greatness.

[Giles]

Oh, that's much more subtle….

[BloodnThunder]

One of these sports teams needs to hire @Warner to design their championship ring.  He'd someone manage to make it over the top while avoiding the gaudiness of the above.

RIP Kobe Bryant. Very sad.

[Giles]

Yes, extremely sad…....

terrible news to wake up to. i saw that obama and the rest were tweeting about kobe and i was like 'huh. what's going on'. then i clicked more news and realised what had happened.. tbh, still in disbelief and shocked. i never watched the NBA but even then you know kobe was the GOAT..

[manufc10]

Very sad.  Kobe had strong links to the soccer world as he was a huge fan of the sport…. legit fan not just a token celebrity fan.  I believe he lived in Italy for a number of years when he was younger when his dad played professional basketball there which is where he picked up his love for soccer.  I also believe he was fluent in Italian.

Sad loss for the sports world for sure.

[manufc10]

Also tragic for the loss of his 13 year old daughter in the crash and all the other members on board as well.  Being a girl dad myself this makes it hit a little closer to home for some reason.

i recently saw a video of him and the PSG team(i think?), man's got some touch on him.. he'd do more keepy ups than i can..
