    Yeah- losing Wall really sucks. I'm proud that they're doing what they're doing though. It's nice to see two good years in a row after a lifetime of suckage.

    Bullets!!!! errr I mean Wizards!

    Not without John.

    Cavs are really going to win this series now. Pau I don't care how hurt you are. You better be dressed to play tonight.

    Game time decision for Pau. Pau you really want to sit on the bench and watch your team lose to Lebron again.

    If the Bulls can get past Cleveland, they will win it. Otherwise, I see golden state taking it

    DUBS can do it tonight!!!! I like our chances if we do because we've dominated both of the other teams in the opposing bracket during the season.

    That's RIGHT!!!!! DUBS in the Division FINALS since 1976!!!!!! That 65 foot 3 pointer at the end of the 3rd by Curry was an omen that there was no way the Grizzles were going to win!! Doesn't matter if it's LA or Houston, DUBS will trounce 'em!!!!

    GO DUBS!!!!!!!

    I dont see GS making it past the Rockets....great 3 point shooting team but they live and die by the 3..if they're off, it will be bad for them...also dont think GS can match the front court play of the Rockets..they're playing good ball down low

    Both teams are 3 point shooting teams. DUBS are the no.1 defense in the league along with being top 3 in offense. Plus home court advantage favors the Warriors. Both teams play fast, but the Warriors bench is so much deeper than Houston's. So it should be a good series, but I'm not betting against GS.

    You said you love the playoffs. I find it very funny some teams strategy to foul away from ball. Quick foul a bad FT shooter. This playoff were kind of exciting.

    BTW When the Cavs win vs Hawks, I will love to see how GS will beat them in the finals.

    I'm a betting man, I may not bet against GS straight up but I will take the Rockets and the points all day. ehh, outside of Curry, Thompson, and Green's 3 point ability, I am not sold on them playing complete ball. They're a great team though, this series will tell a lot. Dubs are not the #1 defensive team in the league though, FYI..if we're talking opponents PPG they fall behind Chicago and Cleveland and come in at #3..offense is ridiculouls though. When they're on they are tough to beat..

    Lol, the "Hack a Shaq" is so common now in the NBA. I'm sure that they'll consider changing some of the rulings. Maybe like a 2 point FT attempt and then retention of the ball after the fact. Should dissuade teams for using that as a "strategy".
    In the NFL if the offense has no timeouts, moves the ball down the field then delays with a fake injury or penalty, there's a 10 second run off of time. That would mean a lot on the NBA if they did something like that.

    Yeah maybe we can also get a challenge flag so it can be thrown when coaches call timeouts when they have zero.

    WHEW!!!!! The Rockets are making it tough, but I LOVE the fact that the DUBS are going into Houston at 2-0. They do need to quit turning the ball over though. And quit fouling Harden.

    Did you hear the commentators talking about a fouling strategy late in the fourth?

    Hell yeah! That's why they were rotating Bogut and Livingston. I hate that fouling is considered a strategy. You want the ball....................go get it. Double team, force the ball loose, etc.

    Game 3 tonight in Houston! I expect the Rockets to pull out all stops. If they lose tonight, it's probably over.
