    The Celtics must really need Porzingis because he's all that's missing and the Clippers are taking them apart.

    Boston can't hit nothin', 20% from deep. Clippers mauling Celtics.

    I keep telling people the playoffs are a different beast. The defense tightens up, the rim gets smaller, and way too easy scoring goes down.

    Miami stinks, and they made the Finals.
    How?? FRENETIC defense, especially around the perimeter.

    I am thinking if they stay healthy LAC are going to the finals. They have 4 guys that can take over a game. So much talent.

    Knicks have been soundly beating everybody lately. OG trade has worked out for them.

    But I thought you were the main person on here cracking on Harden and the Clippers as well as the Minny/Utah trade last season. It’s simply amazing how if you just give transactions time, you can get an actually measurement of how it’s going, huh?

    Draymond was at his best. A +31 in a 2OT game.

    There's a reason the NBA gave him to the Spurs over us.

    Because it's all true. You did see the TNT game Thursday night had fewer viewers than South Carolina / LSU womens' college hoops, right?

    That game was televised nationally on ESPN. Even I know some of the players and honestly that is saying something. Huge game with an undefeated Gamecocks going up against Angel Reese and LSU. Then you are talking about Kings vs Warriors late on the east coast with the warriors a lotto team and the Kings with like the smallest following in the NBA other than the Blazers. Now I do have to say the NBA game was a good game.
