Should have known better than to put faith in Rose and the Bulls. Let's go Hawks.

If the Bulls didn't beat the Cavs, no one in the East is gonna beat them.
Where was Rose, Butler, and Gasol tonight for the bulls? That third quarter was brutal. Stopped going to Gasol, maybe because of injury. Rose should have went off or Butler. Rose especially was way way too passive. Tough to see the Bulls and potentially Thibs going out like that. If Thibs is gone, I'm gonna miss this Bulls era. They constantly fell to Lebron but they showed a lot of heart and they were constantly one of the best teams even with Rose out. Thibs developed guys like Luol Deng, Rose, Butler, Noah, Snell, etc. He also knows how to get the best of players like Mike Dunleavy, Nate Robinson, Aaron Brooks, or DJ Augustin. Since Jordan left the Bulls have always been searching for an identity and they really found one with Thibs, just a damn shame it has slowly crumbled.
Gotta give props to the Cavs. Lebron had a great all around game. his finger prints were all over this game. Thompson, Iman, and JR are playing really well. Thompson is about to get (over)paid and it won't even look that bad with the new deal coming in. I don't think the next series will go further than 6 whether its the Wiz or the Hawks. Cavs in six.

Clippers are still the Clippers. Damn how did they throw that away?
Blake and CP3 can't do it all. J Smoove just had the best quarter of his post season career.

Well, as I've mentioned, I live in the Columbus area, which is right in the middle of Cinncinati and Cleveland, so most people around here like either the Bengals or the Browns....I'm indifferent to both teams, I kinda root for all Ohio teams, I'm unique in that way. And, of course, the Browns are a joke and the Bengals are quasí good, so... God bless.

Are people really getting upset because Curry brought his daughter to the press conference? Sports media members need to understand, yeah their job makes $$$ but let's not kid ourselves this is entertainment. Who cares if a player brings his or her child up? They ask the same 10 questions anyway.
Looking forward to Cavs and Hawks game tonight. Harden and Curry put on a show last night.

Brutal to have guys like CP3 and Westbrook on the second team. All the teams look pretty good to me. Also interesting fact if it is a Cavs vs Warriors final. Curry will have played every other first team member.
I might switch out Klay with Wall or Kawhi on the 3rd team, but pretty much all those dudes are top 20 players.
I'm getting really tired of the Wall/Lillard over Kyrie debate. Stats are stats, but there's a reason why Lebron wanted to play with Kyrie and why Coach K picked him to be the starting PG for team USA in the FIBA chip this past summer. I've been a Wall fan for years. I've watched him play back in high school at Word of God. I don't think I've seen anyone as quick as he is in person. He's come a loooong way as a pro and as a professional. Same with Kyrie, he's grown a lot this year, but the fact that people think Wall definitely should have got it over Kyrie is crazy. There's a debate there but no real clear winner. I just think Kyrie is a better overall shooter and creator, although he might not get as many assists as Wall. Wall is the better defender and is a better traditional PG. Lillard I think is a hair below those two.
Tonight was amazing. These past 3 playoff games have been awesome. Curry vs Harden shootout was something to watch. The best shooter of all time vs one of the most creative drivers in history. The top 2 MVP players. This Warriors team is just so damn enjoyable to watch. Loved to see Livingston have a great game in game 1 and my dude Iguodala with the vicious throwback jam.

Sitting out with knee tendinitis? That's something you have to play through in the ECF.

History will show lebron made the right decision going back to Cleveland making it to his fifth straight finals but he would have made it there with the Heat too. This EC playoff run is much easier than the last four because of the competition.

He had to leave the first time. If he didn't they would not be where they are today. All those first round picks from losing got them Kyrie and Thompson and the assets to trade for Love. The team never showed him they could make the right moves in FA for him in the past and now players will want to play in CLE because they know they can win with him. The move definitely hurt his image but I doubt he'd be on his way to his fifth straight final if he stayed in CLE. It'll be interesting to see how his legacy will be seen when he retires. I don't see them winning against the Warriors. If he does lose he will have lost four finals appearances and won two. I always think it's better to get to the finals and lose then lose in the earlier rounds but look at Jordan's legacy. He's 6-0 in the finals. Nobody talks about the years he didn't get to the finals as negatives but they will talk about James losing all those finals as negatives.

Detroit and Boston were allowed to play MJ HARD , the way the game was originally intended and as great as MIKE was they ground CHICAGO down in the mid to late 80 s when the the rules really loosened up JORDAN was a able to play his style and the results are legendary I think that hurts Lebron legacy even more , the fact he has lost in finals in the looser than ever rules where you sneeze at a superstar and your getting a foul called against you . Would love to have seen the bad boys and Boston of the 80 s be able to pound on Lebron , would be interesting to see if he could get by them ....I doubt it , if game was called like old times .. and nd i do realise MJ beat Detroit , but that was not the Pistons at there height , and the calls loosened up

Welp, rip Warriors lol
If Curry doesn't come back in Rockets will win this one easily. If he's in Wednesday, not so much. Sad that Curry's probable concussion (I don't know) is what they need to save themselves from getting swept.

Pretty sad that anyone would celebrate someone getting injured, a professional athlete or not. Glad he's okay, honestly to me it looked like his arm could have been broken. I'm glad GS didn't sweep. More basketball for us
