    My co-worker compared David Lee to JJ Hickson this morning, thought it was interesting.

    Nuggets are done. Warriors in 6.

    He took Denver with Melo to WCF four years ago. His biggest chokes in the playoffs was with Seattle when they got bounced as the 1 seed in 1994 and as the 4 seed in 1995. His biggest choke period was with the Bucks in the reg season. They led the division in March and then completely fell apart and missed the playoffs. Can't remember what year. I think 2002.

    Bucks did reach ECF though in 2001 and of course the Sonics reached the Finals in 1996.

    I don't think losing David Lee is a positive. Hes a sieve on defense and playing small opens up the floor for the smalls but, despite the epic offensive performance last night, the team typically struggles more offensively without him. And he'll certainly be missed if/when Faried is back to playing big minutes.

    Festus vs Meyers? Festus is absolutely better right now, but hes also 23 years old and his upside is limited by godawful hands and zero touch or offensive instinct or skills at all. Hes a sensational defender for a rookie and his rebounding has improved to being adequate over the course of the season (still not a plus though). Seems like he'll be a great backup and maybe a mediocre defense-only starter. I'd trade Leonard for him for sure just because of Leonard's potential. Great pick for the W's though and being the last pick in the first round, they've got him locked up at a decent price for a few more years.

    Harden sucks. I would not trade Killard or LaMonster for him.

    I dont know how I got to watch it but somewhere on NBA.com they have the Hou/OKC overtime playing and you get to watch the action from 4 different camera angels at once.

    Can't believe Perkins got away with knocking down Parsons right in front of the ref.

    Harden goes 9-24 from the field, yet also has 20 FT attempts.

    LOL at the NBA refs.

    I got confused by TNT's Overtime being on the top of the game as OT, so when I started watching it with 4 minutes left in the 4th it said "TNT OT 4m left OKC/Hou" so I assumed it was overtime. Hadn't been paying attention before I tuned in.
