Had to skip the dog walk this morning.

Now my dog is pissed at me.

I can't wait to get home and discover what she destroyed to exact her revenge.

I'm guessing a pair of shoes.

I haven't seen the details of the case, but I'm going to disagree with you here.

It's the sheriff's job to enforce the rules.

- Atomic Wedgie


Uhm.

You know an important rule?

Who is allowed on the court for celebrations.

Very important actually. It’s the difference between letting some fan on the court opposed to a team owner, player, GM, coach.

Its 100% their job to know who’s allowed on the court and who’s not. Come on man.

It’s not hard to do a little bit of research before the game. In fact it’s his job to do so and he failed.

There’s shootings all the time in Toronto(yes it’s sad but the truth)

Some vandalism is expected. They just won a championship and thousands partied all night. There will be some damages. There’s no way around it.

This. Everything seems pretty superficial, which is a huge kudos to the city and the fans and those celebrating.

If you have a massive house party in high school, even if your friends are all on their best behavior, a vase or two is going to get broken...

Didn’t know he was the sherif.

I see why he’s trying to defend him now.

Anybody in here wish Dubas had been in on Gudas?

I don't know much about him, but he shoots right, plays heavy, and apparently is a bit of a darling among the advanced statters?

Absolutely.

I am not the type to break things but there are people like that everywhere. There is no stopping it.

I was hoping they added him last deadline.

i like the deal for Wash, Niskanen was very good but is trending down.

At this point I have no idea what Dubas plan is for the D

Genius Lou is committing 11.5 million per for Nelson+Eberle until their mid 30's.
Terrible cap management.

There might be 100 people who are allowed on the court.

You can't possibly be able to memorize all the faces and then in the chaos of the celebration be able to with 100% accuracy make an instant assessment and allow access.

You know what you can do? Look at a security pass.

Yeah me neither... just seemed like a guy who would have been worth a look, given the cheapish contract and the fact that the leafs have nothing on the RHS if Zaitsev is moved.

Refs made bad calls both ways, can’t blame them if ur GS.

But yeah those 2 injuries definitely enough to warrant asterisk discussion. Those are 2 hall of fame all time greats, KD in particular not playing at all made the series a joke from a neutral fans perspective. But hey I guess take championships however you can get em.

Philly seems to have a plan, it might not be a good one...but they seem to have ideas.
Maybe they just didnt have what Philly was after

NBC’s Bay Area affiliate has reported that a deputy with Alameda County Sheriff’s Office was pushed and allegedly struck in the face as Ujiri, the Raptors president of basketball operations, tried to rush onto the court at Oracle Arena in the moments after the team clinched the title with a Game 6 victory.

The officer was reported to have denied Ujiri access to the court “because he didn’t have the proper credentials,” according to The San Francisco Chronicle.

A video posted to Twitter apparently shows the moments after the alleged altercation. Raptors veteran Kyle Lowry comes into the shot shortly after, pulling Ujiri away from the scene.

Are you (frank)ed? Sheriff of Oakland and you are working game 6 in a win it all game for the Raptors and he (frank)ing doesn’t know who the GM of the Raptors is?

Man. I get why cops get bad rep....it’s the American cops.

- GreatGigInTheSky


Nope, no chance. he's never been the second best player in the NHL. Although Crosby appears like he might be fading a little, for the last decade, he's owned that. With Malkin and Ovechkin in there over that timeframe. And now McDavid taking over. Kucherov? And these days, Karlsson really isn't all that good at all.

And quite frankly, there are quite a few D I would prefer, if the goal is to win a championship.

Karlsson is not even worth a mention in this conversation.
