Yea this has certainly been disappointing so far Barkley took the Thunder to win the series in the pregame  Still, I can see Rockets going cold and letting OKC back in it in the second half Yeah D'Antoni coached teams always allow you back in. They're shot selection alone will get you back in not to mention their shitty D. |

Whose gonna do it you, you lieutenant Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You seem to weep for Santiago, and you curse the Marines, in all likelihood. You presumably have that luxury, you have the luxury of not knowing what I know, that Santiago's death while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence while grotesque and incomprehensible, to you, probably saves lives. You probably don't want the truth because deep down in places you talk about parties; you from what I can tell want me on that wall, you most likely need me on that wall! Thats a better scene if we're being honest |

Blazers can definitely win this series. I was never a hater on Nurkic but I truly cannot believe how good he looks in this restart. |

Weird how when the Blazers went up 5 with 30 seconds left and got a defensive rebound the lakers just gave up. This wasn't an exhibition game. It was a playoff game

These games are already more competitive than any collection of first round games that I can remember. |

this shit of just pulling up from 35 feet out in close playoff games in the 4th quarter and swishing is insane. Even steph wasnt doing this lol |

Whiteside came up huge down the stretch. Those 2 blocks were crucial. |

I’d be shocked if the Lakers don’t win the series. Davis puts up 40+ points in Game Dos. |

Still going with the fantasy that you can predict a hypothetical alternate universe? |

I watched a ton of the Lakers game last night. Ratings are probably down, not surprising but that was great basketball. I still think the Lakers win. Anthony Davis needs to be more of a force offensively, and Hassan Whiteside, can't stand that kid but he did his job. |
