They should know this. They are professionals.
Instead Poole is whining about playing time and ignoring Green even though his performance has been abysmal.
Green is playing trash and doing podcasts.
Klay went on holidays.

By the way, Steph looks genuinely tired.
The man is exhausted. After that sacramento series, plus this lakers team. He has never had to play this much minutes.
Credit to Draymond. He beat the allegations today.

Warriors did a good job keeping these guys out the foul line.

Draymond had his over my dead body game today. Someone not named Steph has to have another over my dead body game in Game 6.

My prediction of Lakers in 6 is still in play (will 90% happen) the onus is on Kerr, Poole and Draymond and Game 6 Klay to say the Lakers will have to pry this championship out of their cold dead hands

Who will beat this Lakers team go try sha. When you have a team with 5-6 guys that can give you efficient 15 or more points such team will take some beating. Especially when their two best players are 6'8 and above

5 warriors players in double digits.
Be like those fools think say na now series start...
Dead guys....
If you want to beat the Lakers this is the only way. Balanced scoring. Klay and Steph will not shoot well enough to beat this Lakers squad by themselves
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 5:05am On May 11, 2023
No baddies for courtside na why Poole dey do anyhow

But Poole owes this team at least 1 decent game. He's shocking.

Let's see if that game is Game 6
SportsRe: The NBA Begins by A40(m): 5:00am On May 11, 2023
Warriors need to watch it. Those first 90 seconds is when Lakers make their runs. Double digit lead go just vanish in the twinkle of an eye

I would previously argue that as opposed to today when thanks to modern health methods, we will be seeing more and more Superstars extending their prime into their 30s, that wasn't the case in the 90s. Most Superstars would be close to average by the time they were 33. Even though I feel maybe he's just one of those stars that does not work well with co- Superstars. But we wouldn't have known this if they didn't come together in an experiment that for the most part failed. And there's the Sampson issue. He worked well with Sampson and they were on their way to perennial greatness. Instead of invoking these hypotheticals in his defense, it's much better to accept those as his failures. Similarly, for other greats, instead of coulda woulda. After all, they are humans.
Jordan did win his second 3peat at age 33-35 respectively though.

You might be right. He might be one of those that don't function well with stars and this is why Jordan deserves immense credit for winning that 3peat with Pippen.
Barkley and Olajuwon were two MVPS that played together. Pippen joined them and still failed to win. Drexler played two seasons with both and failed to win (for those that think that era was sweet)

I don't know that Sampson would have stayed healthy or remained consistently good enough for them to win. Two 7fters, hell one was 7ft plus.

I'm just pointing out the flaws in the Hakeem argument that are out there, hell some people say he only won cos MJ retired. I don't quite belong to that crowd and I even rate Hakeem over Shaq and just below Duncan. The thing with Hakeem and why he got so overlooked was even with his back to backs you didn't think juggernaut like the Lakers or Spurs

I am just disappointed. He messed the team up years ago by trading for Rondo. He has done the same thing again.

Going that far last year and not making the playoffs this year. Can’t make this filth up.
His decision making you wonder if it's the same guy on Shark Tank. This was the same way he let Nash walk. If not for Nowitzki's loyalty the Mavs woulda been a nonentity franchise

Kill them cut their head and take it away otherwise they will wake up

Even if City goes 2 or 3 goals ahead as long as there is more than 5mins to play anything can still happen

I remember one of our games where we outplayed them, Vidal scored a header, then Vidal missed a penalty and I immediately knew we would lose that game. By the time 2nd half came around they turned the game around and Neuer heroics was why we didn't lose by more than 2-1
This Madrid I no know say their craze extend enter basketball sef. I dey watch this game live. They were down 16 at Halftime and came back to win.

Mind you this was Game 5 of a 5 game series that they lost the first 2 games at home. So they had to go away and win 2 games just to come back in contention

To beat Madrid you must be prepared to utterly destroy them by 3 goal margin. And be actively looking for the 4th. Otherwise.

When will you people learn to stop staking what you can't afford to lose. Anyone with steady and stable income has no business gambling desperately like you're doing. I hope it's not Virtual Baby seju you're playing cos if na that one aye e ti baje finally. I've seen someone use his wife CS money to play that evil thing.

Betting is only enjoyable when you stake what you can afford to lose. It's greed and lack of self control that ultimately ruins people

And stop carrying family problems on your head. I'm sure your younger ones are of age and can find their square root. Do the little you can but not at your personal expense. Remember you cannot help the poor while you're poor as well

Na their way be that. Cherrypick some facts, no context. But I love it. Let the narratives continue. We dey wait at the end with counter. cheesy grin. I love it when you built up a narrative and it just fizzles. Me never give up sha. Until my man is completely down I am still in this. cheesy grin.

But sha people dey underrate Olajuwon sha ooo. Folks don dey kick am out of top 10 for the likes of Curry. Person wey i dey still rate above Shaq. I will still take him over Duncan with 5 titles. The man was just unlucky that his career overlapped with the GOAT. For most of his career he played in a team with players ranging from unserious to fairly above average, especially in those titles. Those guys may have not been Super stars, but they were solid(at least many of them) and that was enough to will them to the titles.
Lol. They're not serious with their propaganda that they think helps their guy but actually does him a disservice. You can't say he's the greatest and perpetually cast him as the underdog even with superior or evenly matched squads. You are talking from both sides of your ass

Cos the first question thinking people will ask is how did They start 2-10 to begin with. Did Adam Silver punish them for an offense? Didn't everyone start 0-0? Why did they drop as low as 7th seed? Look around the league and tell me which team still standing has two top 75ers

Olajuwon was a beast for me the best defensive player in modern NBA history people don't know he's all time blocks leader. Really tough to order Shaq, Duncan and Olajuwon ultimately what works against Olajuwon is in his latter days he actually played with Barkley, Pippen, Drexler and failed to even sniff the Finals. That's the black mark on his record

LeBron winning a ring with

NO all NBA players
NO All Stars
On one foot
As a 7th seed
After staring 2-10.

would be the greatest ring of all time

no debate.

Copied from Twitter
This one is cap sha. Cos this is one of the most balanced teams he's ever been on. With a top 75er in his prime still averaging 25 and 12

The greatest individual ring still remains what Olajuwon did in 94 with that Rockets team and then what Dirk did in 2011 beating 3 HOFers in their prime.

This season can never top that

Celtics only have themselves to blame. Allowed one or two internal foki foki to ruin on court success. grin

I doubt Udoka loses to an Embiid less Sixers team. There really should have been no excuses to lose that Game 1

It's also pretty clear this Mazzulla nothing really consign am with defense. I don't really see much Horford and Timelord on the court together. So while you're scoring the other team is also scoring. It usually works till it doesn't

Anyway they say the closeout game is the hardest.

That's an old discussion. Once again the woman In that interview didn't tell you anything about equality or feminism. She only said she wants a man who earn higher than her which is normal in an African traditional setting were the man is seen as the provider and bread winner. We generally don't even like women who earn higher or even equal to us.
Lmao don't make me laugh. You think the average African feminist gender equality babe doesn't still want a higher earning man? Not saying it's a crime just pointing out the double standards.

African traditional settings?? grin You think we're in 1979. Did they tell you these women today are traditional? If you like you can deliberately hunt poorer women, that will not still make them traditional. And IMO anyone still playing traditional provider man for these non traditional women especially at your young age is a confirmed mugu. Only truly traditional women deserve that luxury

He doesn't even have to be. There's 3 guys that can carry the load. AD in Game 1, Game 3 was D-Lo and then Lonnie Walker with a huge 4th. There's a reason he can go through full quarter without taking shots because he knows teammates will keep the game in range

I chopped four because four of my main starters were missing, With a full squad we beat them 3-1 and had to make key subs before they scored, Elclassico will still remain Elclassico, keenly contested, mystique or not
This real side were beaten in 2019 after Ronaldo left, beaten in 2020 (by city ironically) and 2021, no be person comot them chief, Sports generally has a way of rewarding some people especially if they keep getting closer and closer to the main prize, even pep admitted it that one day city will win the UCL (though not sure of this one) after he lost to shelkski in 2021
If we also want to extend the sample size of them losing home and away to every competition I get several ones to give you from laliga, that's why we limited it to the UCL where both teams are meeting currently, Heck they even lost to RB Leipzig and drew with shakhtar Donetsk away, City and Madrid are the two most dangerous sides left in the competition so it's only logical I back them at home where they've not lost since 2018
These matches you listed did Madrid need them?

Anyway your anti Madrid bias is what is at play here. I don't see any superiority City possesses that says in a one off game Madrid cannot come to Etihad and steal a 2-1 win. They are more than capable of that

tonye33:
Hi Dickson,
I have seen your messages about wife denying husband sex and I must confess that mine is epic. I dated my wife for 4 years before marriage. After the first 2yrs of dating, she put a stop to our sex and said she felt guilt and all, I accepted because I have dated 2 girls previously with sex, so it wasn't a new deal.

She is 2yrs older than me, I was younger and naïve, cos knowing what I know now, I wouldn't have done a lot of things.

After marriage, she opened up to me that she has never enjoyed me cos I was huge, last more than 30mins and thrusts faster. I felt bad, started developing anxiety towards sex cos I was always thinking whether I was injuring her, she was enjoying it, or I will finish fast so she doesn't get angry cos she s hot tempered, can even get very very angry even during sex.

Additionally, she cancelled all sex position because she said they were painful, only one position and its with her lying straight on her belly, or at most by her side. Anything that will make her raise any part of her body was painful, doggy was totally out of the way, and all these were never raised during our dating period.

Any other position you attempt will make that night miserable because she will just be angry and asking every 5secs if you are not cumming.
Something that was supposed to be fun ends up being a task. I wanted to meet her halfway and that was my huge mistake. I changed all my strategy and then I started losing my erections and most times I won't even be able to get one, and then her complaint changed that I was falling even in the act and that she was not enjoying me again cos i no longer thrust fast.

Infact eeh........... I knew what the problem was, topped my game and we went back to square 1. The monthly count was like 7 or 8 times then as newly married couple while targeting conception. The moment she conception. The moment she took in, she locked up till the baby was in the 5th month. Infact the 9 months preg period was like 6 times only with curses, different conditions and rules before she will agree. I just managed the little wey i see. Mind you, we live peacefully, communicate almost every time, greet with kisses, pet names, dine and even play games but no sex.

She is a full housewife and I earn 7 figures monthly. After our first baby, I begged for sex for 7 months and anytime I bring up the sex, it was followed with blackmail, anger, back talks and even silence. On the 8th month, the rule was "it must be with protection", I obliged. By the 9th
month, which was the 5th time, she took in again. Almost same thing like the first preg period.

After second delivery, I decided not to demand and just observe her. Bro, we stayed 1year living in the same house without sex as couple. I work from home, so I was always around. I have househelps that does practically everything at home, except mixing food. Yes, I the same house without sex as couple. I work from home, so I was always around. I have househelps that does practically everything at home, except mixing food. Yes, I used mixing because they prepare everything needed to make food. I do the monthly shopping and even take care of the baby at night after working several hours during the day ooo, I support her to the best of my knowledge and still don't know why.......I just feel shedoesnt love me and not attractedto me, probably i was just the available status changer, because how can a woman stay in the same house with someone she loves and never feel the need to go intimate?

I bumped into an ex and she suggested that I act like I was seeing someone, I then started living the house every evening and most times will drive to a car wash and stay for like 3 hours before coming home, and it didn't change anything, instead she became irate.

This year, I have not even had it up to 10times with her for a marriage of 5yrs. Its really crazy.
You mean all this Kira kita for the dollar, for the dinheiro all to end up with woman that will not provide bare minimum which is intimacy? Shey person no go just dey enjoy single life dey go?

All the emotional maintenance and attention the average woman demands, intimacy IMO is the barest minimum that she can use to show appreciation and reciprocation. I don't even know how guys do it because every babe I don ever dey with knows once you withhold body. O ti lo. I view it as sign you're not interested and I bounce.

So I can't last even 3 months in a marriage with a woman deliberately hoarding intimacy from me. Barring a health emergency. What are you doing with a woman who's not actively seeking ways to please you? Not even you demanding, she actively seeking ways to impress you. No be women I dey see online dey take knobjockey classes?

The things the average woman requires of you as a Man honestly you should have zero tolerance for her not giving you intimacy and I mean zero
