[The Midnight]

This is the best first round I can remember.

NBA tumbling and stumbling towards parity big time.

Bodes well for the Jazz.

Hardcore Beasley choke

Ya I wish he would have caught that. Would have had a really good look

Taking a moment to dwell on the fact that Jokic averaged a 30pt triple-double this year.

That's ****ing insane

But not worth MVP apparently. Only the third person to ever achieve that feat in the history of the NBA. Not every triple double season gave that player the MVP.

7 teams have won 68 games or more in a season. Not all of their best players won the MVP either.

For my money the first is a greater accomplishment, especially as considering the value to their respective teams for those players.

Yes, I'm still arguing for Jokic for MVP. Fight me!

the major problem with this GSW/HOU series is that one of them is going to win it

 

[KqWIN]

Jimmy Butler gets the greatest whistle I have ever seen. Any contact = two free throws.

 

[KqWIN]

HOU has three top 3 picks and they all stink.

 

[KqWIN]

FVV should not be the only ball handler on a playoff team....but he's a damn good player nonetheless. If the Rockets move on from him, they'll stink unless they get a superstar to replace him.

I honestly don’t see a massive high upside for the Rockets. I’m not sure how they get to real championship contention

 

[The Midnight]

Hack-a-Adams in effect.

 

[The Midnight]

Let’s go Houston! You got this!

 

[Ferguson_Mellochill]

Give Keyonte George enough usage, and enough of the right usage, and he can give you 21 pts on 42/35 shooting splits the same as Jalen Green. Keyonte will also throw in some assists to boot.

Yep. Green is so gifted but he ain’t it

Man this game is too close to call. Every possession counts now still 8 min left.

 

[NUMBERICA]

This Warriors crowd is pathetic.

They trade Amen and stuff for Giannis is how. If they seriously hold him out of discussions they are clowns.

[The Midnight]

Adams-Sengun is an odd couple but it works.. lol
