2018 NBA Playoffs

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
TNT's coverage has never been that good. It just feels REALLY awesome compared to ESPN.

Actually TNT's best crew includes McHale and Brent Barry. I never expected McHale to be so good, but does a damn good job.

Yet their A crew features two of their most annoying personalities in Miller and Webber.
 
Nah y'all are just being defeatist. Houston's been the better team through two games. There's no reason to believe this series is anything other than really close.

Houston was better in Game 1??

Man, hope you're right...although I think Boston could beat Houston so that'd set up that ridiculous scenario, if Houston wins.
 
Lol. Who is "you guys?" Not me. Yet I've said all season Houston was the best team Golden State has played to date. And it's still true. And the first two games are leaning in my favor, not yours.
Idk where all this Houston 0% chance shit is coming from. Are people not watching the game? Houston guarded GS ball movement and told KD to beat them and he did for like 2 quarters. Then GS not knowing how to run offense against a team smart and energetic enough to stick to shooters told KD to shoot every single shot and it worked until he missed 2 or 3 in a row here and there.



I will say Hou shot dumb good from 3. But they are up like 20. They still win even if like 6 of those 3s don’t drop. Iggy and Livingston are basically unplayable this series of GS wants to win

Could, I guess... But if Houston somehow, someway gets past the Warriors, they are spanking whoever comes out of the East.

Having said that, I see Golden State up 3-1 after the West Coast swing.
 
Did you just compare that Hawks team to this Rockets team lol

Yikes... That one flew right over your head.

You brought up best record like it fucking means something. My analogy was reference to that, and had nothing to do with each team.

Thought it was pretty obvious what I meant, and didn't need to explain it.

I guess you're towel waver for good reason. :chuckle: Jk...
 
Durant had 0 assists tonight. He had 1 assist on Monday night. 1 assist in two games while playing with 3 other all-NBA players. 3 rebounds tonight and 3 Monday night. He isn't on LeBron's level. Not even close. All he can do is score, which is pretty easy when you get to go 1 on 1 all game because you have the 2 greatest 3 point shooters in NBA history spotting up beside you.

They've been the better team through two games. As in, the totality of both games. They've won 5 of 8 quarters.

And no, Boston doesn't have a fucking prayer against Houston. Y'all have really not paid attention to Houston all year.

If you say so, Rich. We'll see.

That's the #1 reason he left OKC. He wanted an easier job while still getting a max and the best odds of winning a title. He's the same guy he was in OKC heck since Seattle but just has one less guy draped all over him while in isolation. He's hard to stop but the key to beating GSW is keeping Green/Iguadala in check by reducing uncontested lay-ups and you do that by not losing Curry/Klay. Houston switched everything, were very physical with Curry and attacked him every chance they got on offense. His morale and the teams morale dipped and I saw a defeated body language from Green as he watched Curry get beat one possession after another. That was fun to watch but I still think they get beat in 5 maybe 6 if Houston wins game 5 but they're historically pretty ruthless in close out games. Hope I'm wrong
 
Soooo, if Houston beats Golden State, and we somehow come back to eliminate the Celtics... and then Houston beats us in the Finals, where does that leave LeBron?? Cuz he certainly CAN'T go KD-mode and join the Rockets :chuckle:
