2016 NBA Playoff Thread

The Cleveland trio has been playing really well so far in the playoffs.

I think the key for them is to make Love resemble the player he was in Minny, rather than just a stretch big. They'll be tough to beat if he consistently scores 20+ on top of what Irving and James bring to the table.

Saw the highlights. Nice push-off by Harden for the win.

I suppose it isn't the first time this year that the Rockets won the game in the final seconds off a terrible no-call ;)

Ezeli's push-off early in the game that Howard ended up blocking was waaaaaaay worse.

Surprisingly i think people are forgetting just how good lebron is. Doesn't make sense to me but i think its true. With all the lebron hate combined with steph curry and what the warriors and spurs did this season lebron and the cavs are kind of an afterthought. But they will likely be there at the end in the finals and lebron is still a top 2 player in the league imo and the cavs are healthy and pretty deep and starting to get their chemistry together.
I dont think we should just anoint the winner of the warriors and spurs series the champs. The cavs will be tough for any team to beat.
 
Kawhi leonard last night: 32 points, 7 rebounds, 4 steals, 5 blocks, zero turnovers, zero fouls. 42 minutes. 50% from the field. 6-9 from three. Wow. MVP numbers.
 
Isaiah Thomas' cheapshot on Dennis Schroder last night was blatant and aimed at the head, technically he should get suspended. He'll get preferential star treatment though..

Great performance by @Isaiah_Thomas however won't get chance to back it up in game 4 Predicting suspension for swing/contact @DennisMike93

Spending too much time with Floyd.
 
DeRozan has been complete *** this series. He is going to get maxed regardless, but damn. I would be super hesitant to offer him the 5-year max if I were Toronto. I guess they really have no choice though, losing him would be worse than overpaying him.

Word is the Lakers are going to throw him a big offer.. Norman Powell looks great though, he'd lessen the blow a bunch..
 
Kyle Lowry absolutely sucks in the playoffs. He has to have the highest differentials between his playoffs and regular season stats.

Yeah, and I bet LeBron is itching to prove he's still better than Curry.

Damn, that 3 at the end of the 1st quarter by Harden was awesome.
