aka the Warriors coronation begins tomorrow. I dont see too many upsets in the first round, maybe the Pacers over the Raptors, because the 3, 4, 5, 6 and seeds are all very even.

News to note. I have been mentioning for months now that the ideal person to coach the TWolves is Thibs because he has the pieces of a great defensive team with Rubio/Towns/Dieng. If he could mold Lavine and Wiggins, its just the ideal spot, and rumors are he is their number 1 choice. It almost makes too much sense. If they can win a top 2 selection in the lottery and somehow get Simmons or Ingram..... watch out. I think that will be a good match for both parties involved.

Don’t watch too much basketball. As an outsider, does anyone have a realistic shot in the East other than leBron? Or is it gonna be Warriors vs LebRon II?

Probably not, but I have the Spurs beating the Warriors and it being Spurs Cavs.
Pulling for my celtics  
GiantsFanPatsLand : 4/16/2016 2:09 am : link
But honestly dont think that they have a shot. Atlanta is one hell of a defensive team and the Celtics shooting percentage is poor as is. Just hope that Brad Stevens is able to pull out some magic that gets us through this round
Agree with Thibs and the wolves.

LAC-Por is the one I wanna watch the most.
Kawhi vs. Durant  
Osi Osi Osi OyOyOy : 4/16/2016 4:57 am : link
Is THE matchup we need to see. KD can't drop 60 on 50 shots?


Please.


Kawhi is a cold blooded lizard. Love that bout him.

And he's gonna guard Russ when that animal gets hot.

Curry is getting all the hype n deservedly so but Pop turned Kawhi into an apex predator. Amazing.

Durant needs to stop being such a passive aggressive fuck.

And you Knicks fans just have to stop, please. It'll come eventually, stop trying to force it.

Clips-Blazers & Celts-Hawks look like the best first round match ups.

This game is making me wonder

if Steph Curry has another level.

On another note, The Ws coaching is about as good as any team in the league. Just to top off how fucking good they are.

What an embarrassment the Rockets are. Such an easy team to root against.

Dallas is getting WIDE open shots and are airballing layups, bricking free throws, and not even close jumpers.

11 points in quarter in the playoffs

atrocious.

Not a good day to be playing for a team in Texas.

Stan Van Gundy tells the media  
dep026 : 4/18/2016 8:34 am : link
Lebron is Lebron. He can do whatever he wants since the refs have a Lebron bias.

This is pretty refreshing for a coach to say. He knows he doesnt have much of a chance to beat the Cavs, but on a day where they outplayed them - but the refs started to give the Cavs every call imaginable at the end - its nice to see a coach say that.
embarrassing loss for thunder

Mavericks missing so many guys. Durant and westbrook put up a brick laying show. Adams tip in just a tad late.

No curry tonigjt.
Dallas has a lot of pride.

Kind of worries me, but losing this game wouldn't really be much of a big deal as long as Curry is healthy by Thursday.

He got fined 25K for speaking the truth. LBJ is going to get calls that dudes like Reggie Jackson aren't.

Hoping for some better ones tonight: OKC @ Dallas, Toronto @ Indy, & GS @ Houston.

Still unclear if Curry plays tonight. If I'm GS, I rest him. They don't need him to win this series.
1st round series need to end ASAP  
dep026 : 4/21/2016 8:04 am : link
if the favorite advance...

OKC/SA and LAC/Golden State should at least be entertaining. In the East, just put Cleveland in the finals already and keep those games off TV until the finals.
Just another reason to hate the Rockets  
dep026 : 4/22/2016 8:41 am : link
their front office is crying over a couple missed calls by the refs, yet nary a word about the blown foul calls in game 2 which gave Harden multiple 3 free throws and the missed forearm shove by Harden before he hit the game winner. Seriously, when did it become acceptable for a penetrator to extend his forearm out as he is driving to cause separation?

If your a member of the Rockets and cry over foul calls despite what Harden gets called for in his favor on a daily basis, you have a set on yourself. I dont know which team I loathe more - the Clippers or the Rockets.

Cleveland will have a tougher time with Toronto than people think.
I didn't see Harden gain separation  
santacruzom : 4/22/2016 11:26 am : link
By pushing off. He made a great play at full speed and used Iggys momentum against him. Kudos.

Of course my memory may be foggy: I was so distraught by the reality that the Warriors won't sweep the Houston Rockets. Darkest period in Warriors history? I say yes.
