Still not seeing the appeal. LA makes you a top FA destination, Vegas doesn't. Does anyone actually aspire to live in Vegas?

Isn't the reason players don't wanna play in Utah because of the lack of night life? Vegas is nothing but night life, plus warm weather. I'm sure it would be a bigger free agent destination than half of the other NBA cities (at least).

I think it's more the stigma of Utah being all Mormons and white people. There are a ton of cities with warm weather and nightlife that aren't Vegas.

Jesus ****, we got *** raped with no vaseline.
I can only hope my guys can bounce back and that was an anomaly. But I think the Spurs may have just turned on the playoff switch.
They going to win it all if they keep playing like that. That first half was perfect basketball on their part.

The Spurs have been killing it all year. If people weren't so busy jerking off to the Warriors they might have noticed before it was too late.
Yeah but OKC split the series 2-2 and all their losses were down to the wire. I dont think anyone expected this.

They like LA better.

I love Pops. I don't know why my teams don't do this. But on every play Kanter was in they went right at him. Kanter is such a terrible defender that he would stay too long on the guard and end up leaving LA wide open. He's just so lazy and stupid on defense.
To be fair, none of the other OKC bigs challenged LA.
This series is going to be over quick if the Spurs see Kanter for more than about 5 mins. He's such a liability on defense.
I wish our coaches would purposely attack certain players. We seem to run the exact same stuff against everyone. We would run the exact P&R whether we were playing Kanter or Tyson Chandler. Doesn't make sense.

Still don't see how Vegas wouldn't be a top 10 free agent destination. What other NBA cities can compete with that combo of night life and warm weather? LA, Miami, and...?
It's lame to have two teams in one city. If the Clippers were to ever relocate, I've always thought Vegas would be an appealing choice for them. It's the entertainment capital of the world--having a professional sports team to add to that would only make sense.

Vegas is hot as balls. I'm not sure the weather is a selling point. Not that I disagree that the night life has its appeal.
