Then, in the wee hours of Saturday morning, news dropped of Leonard not only signing with the Los Angeles Clippers, but in the ultimate power play he orchestrated a trade of Paul George from the Oklahoma City Thunder to the Clippers. This wouldn't be as big of a deal if George was entering the second season of a four-year, $136 million contract with the Thunder. He seemingly would have no leverage to force a trade, and certainly not at the request of another star wanting to join him on a different team.

Toronto was outplaying Golden State and appeared to simply outmatch them. Without question, Toronto had the deeper team. But it seemed like it was just that. We'd get a new champion and could assess what that'd mean for the league going forward. Then Kevin Durant got hurt after scoring 11 points in 12 minutes in Game 5. And Klay Thompson put up 30 in 32 minutes in Game 6 before he went down. Both injuries are significant -- torn Achilles for Durant; torn ACL for Thompson.  Now, suddenly, the Warriors' future seems darker than it has since this incredible run began. Many assumed they'd lose Durant to free agency, but if they could keep the Splash Brothers together, they could build and continue to contend.  The Warriors are likely to start the season without Durant or Thompson -- even if they were to re-sign them both -- due to injury, at least. And the Western Conference championship, just like that, is totally up for grabs.  00:31:00B ScottnoThe last two games of the NBA Finals were great.

In Game 3, it was Danny Green shooting like a sniper from the 3-point line. In Game 4, it was Serge Ibaka coming off the bench with a 20-point game (he was instrumental in Game 3 as well, posting a game high six blocks) The questions about the Raptors were whether the supporting cast around Kawhi Leonard was good enough. Forget about a championship. Good enough to get through the Eastern Conference!  With the Raptors up 3-1, on the cusp of spoiling the Golden State Warriors' hopes of a three-peat, I've learned my lesson underestimating this team. 00:31:00B ScottnoWhether it's Siakam, VanVleet, Danny Green or Serge Ibaka, the Raptors have Kawhi Leonard's back in the NBA Finals94e302fd-07fa-47a2-94e5-015fe799c258111fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/brandonkscott/2019/06/03/how-many-injuries-can-the-golden-state-warriors-takePop Culturehttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/brandonkscott/2019/06/03/how-many-injuries-can-the-golden-state-warriors-take/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/brandonkscott/2019/06/03/how-many-injuries-can-the-golden-state-warriors-takeMon, 03 Jun 2019 08:00:00 GMTHow many injuries can the Golden State Warriors take? Klay Thompson goes down with a hamstring injury. Andre Iguodola hangs in with a bad hammy to hit maybe the biggest shot of the game. Kevon Looney was injured in the first quarter and Boogie Cousins is coming off a serious quad.  Oh, and Kevin Durant's still out with that calf thing, or whatever it is.  The Golden State Warriors might really win the NBA Finals with just whoever mixed with whichever of their long list of stars makes it out there. The Warriors aren't afraid to play Quinn Cook and Alfonzo McKinnie big minutes in the Finals. It's fascinating to watch them have to dig this deep and still find it. That being said, if Klay can't play, that's a problem.  --- When They See Us tells the story of the Central Park 5 - a group of black and Latino men falsely accused of raping a woman in Central Park back in 1989.  It's Ava Duvraney's latest project with Netflix and I'm interested in it.

Kevin Durant when down in game 5 with a calf strain and he's unlikely to play for the rest of this semifinals series, which means the Warriors are going to have to close out the Rockets without him. It's a lot like how Chris Paul had that hamstring injury in game 5 of last season's Western Conference final series and with a 3-2 lead, the Rockets were going to have to eliminate the Warriors without their second-best player. They couldn't do it and it really sucked for Rockets fan to watch it all slip away like that. So it's the Rockets' turn to have some luck swing their way this time.  - So that Los Angeles team in purple and gold. Is that the Lakers or the Knicks? Is that a distinction without a difference these days? - Kyrie Irving sold Boston fans a false bill of goods. But no one seemed to buy more into Kyrie than himself.  00:30:00B ScottnoThe Rockets get a chance to force a game 7 when they play the Warriors at Toyota Center; The Lakers couldn't even make the most obvious of hires; And what's nex5dbbb5ea-02aa-408e-8fcf-ae0be58c641817fullhttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/brandonkscott/2019/05/08/ayesha-curry-going-pick-me-on-red-table-talk-shouldve-made-her-relatablePop Culturehttps://www.blogtalkradio.com/brandonkscott/2019/05/08/ayesha-curry-going-pick-me-on-red-table-talk-shouldve-made-her-relatable/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/brandonkscott/2019/05/08/ayesha-curry-going-pick-me-on-red-table-talk-shouldve-made-her-relatableWed, 08 May 2019 17:00:00 GMTAyesha Curry going 'pick-me' on Red Table Talk should've made her relatableThe internet went IN on Ayesha Curry for revealing that she sometimes craves the male attention that her husband Stephen Curry gets from women.

No, there's a belief he sent goons to do this for him. This comes just a week or so after the NFL was criticized for only suspending Jameis Winston three games for admitted sexual misconduct.

The joke's on them. With the exception of the 2011 NBA Finals, a legitimate indictment on James as a an all-time great (which he clearly is) all he's done is prove himself and live up to expectations. Let's see if he continues that in Los Angeles. Again, other than that 2011 Finals, we have nothing to suggest he won't.I've probably listened to half of the new Drake record, so I won't pretend to be able to give you a full review. I just haven't had the spare time to really dedicate to it. Between this move and raising three children, I just don't get to stay up on everything that everybody gets to stay up on. So I'll digest it in my own time. But I do have some thoughts on what's happened with Drake over the last several weeks. There's a documentary coming out about Trayvon Martin. As a few of my friends have pointed out on Twitter, we lived through that tragedy. Then we lived through the disappointment of the trial outcome, even though it was as American as apple pie.

But even with the recent "reports," it would still be a surprise to me if that's the business decision LBJ decides to make this offseason. Plus, what are the other stars like Carmelo Anthony and Chris Bosh going to do, and what does it mean for the NBA? There are reports that Andre Johnson wants to be traded from the Houston Texans and at least four teams have made inquiries in that regard. We love Dre here in Houston, but he Texans absolutely have to entertain these discussions. Throw pride, ego and sentiment out the window.  In non-sports related topics, the marijuana stores in Washington are having a supply and demand issue. Guess we could've seen that coming and I bet street dealers are doing everything in their power to take advantage of this precious time.  Also, border security and immigration issues are at the forefront of local and national discussions.
