    I'll say one thing, Kevin Love can throw a basketball on a pin head from 100 yards. That guy can pass. Reminds me of Rodman

    LeBron just isn't on Carmelo's level. Tonight was just another example. And Irving and Love just bring their losing tendencies to the table. The only good player on the Cavs is Dellavedova and I wouldn't be surprised if he demands a trade if things don't turn around quick.

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH! MY SIDES MY SIDES! You're killing me! The Bulls will have the number one spot and it won't be close. The next best team, the Wizards, will be 7 games back. Seriously, I think the Bulls have a chance at 70 wins.

    If Westbrook misses more than 12 minutes per game, we're winning the Northwest division.

    It would be funny if Thunder beat Clips without Westbrook. It would be telling.

    Who won in the Wiggins/Love deal? They both suck.

    I've watched the NBA for 25 years and I've only seen two buzzer beating series winners. Jordan vs Cleveland. Lillard vs Houston. That's it. Allan Houston, Steve Kerr, and John Paxson have hit series winning shots but in all three situations, there were a few seconds left on the clock. Same with Jordan's shot vs Utah.

    Oh dear, Chris Webber, Westbrook isn't an MVP caliber player.

    They are deep as hell and if Pau Gasol gets 20/10 every night, they will be VERY tough to beat.

    Oh wait, John Stockton had one against Houston in WCF too. And that was buzzer beating. He was only open though because Malone hugged Drexler.

    You missed the series game winning shot by Stockton against the rockets that sent Utah to the finals. There was no time left on the clock after that shot.

    Didn't Mario Ellie hit one on game 5 against Phoenix? That's when the first round was a 5 game series

    See above.

    As for Elie, that was Game 7 but not buzzer beating. And I'm not sure it was go ahead. Maybe making a 1 point game into a 4 point game?
