    I think this OKC loss is mostly on their bench being totally destroyed. If the end of the 3rd quarter went differently this series could've been tied 1-1. Westbrook did his thing but when there really isn't even a 2nd scoring option on the floor the team is going to lose. 51 pts looks nice and all but it's on < 40% shooting. Also they are really bad at shooting 3s. So bad... 2-11 for Westbrook, 1-7 Oladipo, 0-3 Roberson

    Interestingly enough the Rockets only played 8 people the entire game.

    Don't edit your posts, it's too easy for me to miss anything new you say. Just double post. I do it like 20 times in a row.

    Wall and Beal aka the best backcourt in the league put up a combined 63 points. Honestly the only reason this game was close was because the Hawks got an absurd amount of FT shots while the refs basically let them murder Wall and Beal all night until the 4th quarter. But as usual the stars took over late.

    We should sweep these nags, but they'll probably win one on their home floor.

    Harden's a great player, but absolutely can't stand that part of his game.

    I mean, at one point tonight he was 2/9 for FGs and yet had 20 pts, because he was 16/16 for FTs.

    On one hand, I bet on Atlanta winning one. On the other hand, I wanna see Wiz sweep these losers. I love a 4-5 seed sweep.

    Yeah @Tonus's analysis of Harden drawing fouls is spot on. But it's an art style. I can't fault him too much. He actually isn't particularly athletic or tall or bulky, but he has a good IQ (not by the standard measurement though) when it comes to scoring and playing.

    6 minutes left but I officially ordain Golden State the winner. It's 98-67.

    Westbrook 4/18 in the 4th. I know he was pissed when he went to sit for like two minutes and his team managed to blow a 12 point lead but god damn dude.

    We also might've just watched history - most field goals in a playoff quarter?

    Looks like the first person inside gets a lifetime supply of tshirts.

    When I went to a Knicks game they gave the t shirts at the entrance right after showing your ticket to get in. When the game ended, some chick saw my shirt on my seat and asked if it was mine: she was about to swipe it.

    Didn't someone we know say they were going to some game 3...?

    Dammit, Pacers, if you lose this one after being up by 25...

    Holy crap, just checked in on the Bucks game, and they're up 57-30 at the half. They outscored the Raptors 32-12 in the first.

    Pacers about to blow a huge lead....

    At least it's an interesting game. This one will come down to the wire.

    LeBron is doing everything. If Westbrook did that we'd call him selfish and not involving his teammates.

    Goddamn Cleveland is a garbage team with garbage coaching. They should kiss Lebrons feet after every game.

    They keep talking about starting the Spurs and Grizzlies game on HLN because NBATV is hosting the Milwaukee game. What the fuck network is HLN.

  19. #2299
    Why are they letting Lebron take these free throws. He's not that great at them tonight.
