This was the worst 3p% in a playoff win in NBA history by any team. Take a bow, Rudy.

Gobert dominating.

The Houston Rockets are calling me.

I have a good feeling about the Giannis/Flagg/Lauri trio. We'll call them GFL - Good ****ing Luck.

Lakers played 5 guys 24 minutes in the 2nd half. They were completely gassed in the 4th and it showed.

I gotta be honest, the gap between how I expected Randle to play this series vs how he's actually playing is pretty vast.

I agree that Jokic should be MVP, but this is some silly logic. Often-times, superstars have higher scoring games out of necessity. Nuggets are 0-4 all-time when Jokic scores 50+, for example.

Rockets not beating the fraud allegations by losing to the 7 seed without their 2nd best player.

That's a dumb reason to not vote for him.

Not that I'd disagree with anybody putting Jokic over SGA as MVP, but I think people are super underestimating how much OKC relies on SGA's scoring. They'd get bounced in Round 2 without him for sure.

Danny Ainge dodged a MeloTheJazzKiller's mom-sized bullet when the Knicks outbid him for Mikal Bridges.

Translate to winning in the playoffs. I didn't word that well but my follow-up post I think summed it up well: Relying heavily on transition offense and offensive rebounding will rack up regular season wins, but that all means nothing when you score the ball in the half court like a college team.

Trying to think of a top 2 seed that was a bigger fraud than this Rockets team. Don't think one exists.

Houston's big problem is that their main strengths are exactly the kinds of things that tend to not translate to the playoffs.
