Anyone watching? Holding my breath for another heartbreak year. Damn Spurs make you believe but in the end fail miserably.

Yesterday was pretty good with how Cavs-Pacers and Jazz-Clips went down. Wish Indiana had gotten the W though.

Pretty good one going on in Oakland right now too.
 
Wow Warriors still cant put them away. Fail

JMO but the 17 points, 5 blocks,9 assists, and 9 rebounds make up for it. Draymond is a beast. Good try Portland.Absolutely absurd that they don't paly again till Wednesday

I wanted him to get that triple double. Wasn't even that far away from a 5x5.

And yeah, they really drag these playoffs out. Especially the Finals.

Yeah, no league drags out the playoffs like the NBA. Guess the Blazers will fly back to Portland and fly back to play a playoff game 3 days later.Friggin ridiculous!

No, Jeff Van Gundy said they will stick around. Might as well. San Fran has nice places to visit..or so I heard.

I've had many good times in SF. Hard to beat SF when it comes to food and entertainment..That being said having to wait 3 days for game 2 on the road in a first-round playoff game is absurd.
 
Gutted for IT. Tough circumstances with the death in the family.


Houston looked amazing. The Thunder did not. Actually Houston didn't shoot as well as they are capable. This might be a quick series.

And Russ will get MVP over Harden. :rolleyes:

Russ has carried that team, he deserves it.

Better yet, I say split the MVP award between Harden and Westbrook.

None of them deserve it more than Kewhi.

He's actually the all around player that distrubutes the ball and not hog it 100% of the time like Harden and Westbrook.

It's easy to go off and have all the points when all you have to do is shoot the ball and not worrying about passing it. It makes it more special when you're actually hitting all your shots while involving your team and actually making them better for it instead of the one man pony show.

Besides Harden on the Rockets, who else can handle the ball?

Seriously, Beverley is not a primary ball-handler nor is any other guard on the team. The offense lives or dies depending upon how Harden plays, they live or die by the three point shot and if those two things are not working... Then well, they are ******. Harden has carried that team all year and has basically lifted the team to a playoff caliber team. Thats what a superstar does and same with Westbrook. Westbrook was an absolute animal this year and has carried the Thunder into the playoffs, same situation with him and OKC is not that great of a perimeter shooting team, meaning Westbrook has been on another level in terms of creating for himself and his teammates. Westbrook averaged a triple-double because well, he had to. Harden damn near did the same thing this year, Kwahi is like 3rd or 4th.

His team is much more balanced than the other two primary candidates. Parker/Mills - Green/Simmons/Ginobili - Lenoard/Anderson - Alderidge/Gasol/Lee - Dedmon

Its not of the fact of them being a show, its the fact that they want to win. Leaders put teams on their backs when the time comes.

Westbrook hogs the ball 100% of the time yet, somehow, has three times as many assists as Leonard?? I don't think I've ever seen a player finish with over 10 assists a game and third in the league in assists called a ball hog...

They don't have "THAT" player, they either get hot from three or play solid defense... They have not been able to do either so far.

Gordon Hayward could be that guy with an expiring contract after this year. Horford has been disappointing so far through the playoffs.
 
How about dem Thunder tonight?

Another entirely inefficient triple-double from Westbrook tonight. Better than Game 1, I suppose.
 
Lou Will is the ****. I'm so glad the lakers traded him to a contender.

I really thought Westbrook was going to slow down with the record-whoring during the playoffs. What the hell, man?
 
Manu is trash. I hate that dude.

Should have retired 10 years ago.
 
The Thunder got dealt with swiftly. Thought they'd put up more of a fight.

Westbrook was missing in action.
 
Lou Will moves on to the second round. Nice.


Kinda hurts to see Westbrook fade like he did, has no ****** help either.

Chris Paul is still a bitch.

I think not getting past the second round is killing him, dude wants to win and you see it every night, but hell he can only do so much.

I would have left LA about two years ago IMHO, that year where San Antonio came back and CP3 was hurt. That would have been the nail in the coffin, I would be trying to leave.
 
Massive..massive chokejob by the lolropters.

Maybe the biggest choke is history?
