    I promised not to talk about his contract for a week if he hit those two clutch free throws.

    Go ET!

    The refs didn't actually say it with their lips (as far as I know), but they certainly did with their officiating: "You Can't Touch Kevin Durant."

    Look i'm gonna give the guy credit for hitting those two free throws BUT........

    I don't think i have ever seen a single player ever have as bad a 8 second run as he did at the end of the first quarter. The dude single handedly gave the Warriors (Defending NBA Champions) 6 points without so much as a shrug. First with 8 seconds remaining he decided it would be a good thing to slap KD in the face giving him 2 free throws and the ball. Then with 4 seconds left he decided to play loose on the former scoring champ giving him what is pretty much a sure shot, open jumper from 10 foot. Then with 3 seconds decides he can dribble right around Curry who immediately picks his pocket and goes uncontested to the basket just waiting there 2 steps away.
    I was in the middle of travel and had stopped to eat and check out the game. As soon as that happened i simply got up, paid my bill and walked out. I had seen enough of Evan "The Torturer" Turner. Was really glad to see the Blazers survived that mess.

    Outside of Bill being very complementary towards the Portland fans and the atmosphere in the arena, he really gave all the on-court props to the Warriors.

    I watched a Youtube highlights video and he was slobbering on them for 7 of the 9 minutes or so it ran.

    I kind of agree with most of his statements. That team is a great team. They have to take every teams best shot every night out. Portland used to be that way also. Teams always played their best game when they played the Blazers.
