    By the way, a Thunder/Warriors matchup will be a lot of fun to watch still even if it won't be nearly as competitive as it would have been had Durant been there. But to me Curry and Westbrook are 2 of the most exciting players to watch right now so having them on the same court for a whole series is gonna be insane, hopefully OKC can at least take a game or 2 and make the series competitive. It wouldn't shock me if the Warriors dominate though.

    Pelicans better not get that 8th spot lol, everyone wants Thunder/Warriors.

    *edit* Also Warriors/Spurs play in about an hour and a half. To me these are still the 2 best teams in the west and the 2 teams I'd give the best chance to win the west. It should be a great game hopefully.

    Kawhi Leonard has 26 points and 7 steals with 4 minutes left in the 3rd and the Spurs are up by 20. d--- they're incredible lol.

    Westbrook gave the car he won at the All Star Game to a single mother

    Derrick Rose is expected to be back TONIGHT!

    He's only going to be playing around 20 minutes, the article said. I guess they're going to slowly increase his minutes as time goes on--probably a good idea

    He's baaaaaaaaaaack.

    This is great news. He was playing really well before the all star break. Him being on the floor automatically makes everyone else better. Hopefully now we can make it through the playoffs without any other injuries. Time to see what this group is really capable of.

    I like Rose and think he's an amazing player when he is healthy which he just can't seem to stay

    Really exciting ending to the Suns/Mavs game. Dirk hit a big 3 with not much time remaining that really helped the Mavs pull out the W.

    Alex Kennedy ‏@AlexKennedyNBA 7s7 seconds ago
    San Antonio has won each of its last nine games by at least a dozen points, tying the longest streak of its kind in NBA history, per Elias.

    ^Hard to see anyone knocking them off in a series right now although right now it'd be Spurs/Grizzlies which would be a fun match up. It could also end up being Spurs/Blazers or Spurs/Clippers though, if it's Spurs/Blazers I think they win in 5 or less.

    I live near Portland and might depending on who they end up playing and how much $$ it'd be on stubhub. I'd almost definitely want the other team to win though lol, hoping they play the Grizzlies or Spurs.

    I've always wanted to go to a Heat playoff game and I had the chance to a couple years ago in Milwaukee but I was still in high school without a job. Now we're fighting for a spot when I can actually afford it. If we meet up with Chicago or Milwaukee I will definitely make it to a game.

    C's play the Cavs the next 2 games. Should be interesting to see who they sit since they have the 2 seed clinched. I expect Lebron to sit at least 1.
