    Pittsburgh still the true city of champs. Lmao at any Celtics fans thinking they had a shot and were on the level of Pittsburgh’s sports teams.

    Rockets really blew it last night, should've been able to close that one out with the Warriors missing KD.

    I don't think they win a game 7 there if they even make it to game 7. Warriors may just finish em off in game 6, but I hope not. CP3 shot 3-14 and Harden had like 2 pts in the 4th or something, they also couldn't get some important rebounds and loose balls late, no one to blame but themselves..that was their shot.

    KD being re-evaluated in a week, ruled a mild calf strain.. really wish they said what grade of a strain it was. The fact they’re keeping a lot of it secretive makes it feel worse than it actually is, who knows. I agree with @Kon 100% that the Warriors are still gonna win the series though.

    The warriors almost looked better without Durant when letting Curry run the team. I’m not a fan of harden, but I am tired of the warriors and want to see them lose. Houston really blew their chance last night, while Durant is out. They need to come out playing hard and somehow beating the warriors, while Durant is hurt. An Eastern team may beat this Warriors team this year. Especially if Durant will still be out the first few games. Curious where Durant is going to go, after this season. And Kyrie possibly going to the lakers teaming back up with LeBron? That’s a move I’d definitely be going for, if I were the Lakers. If they don’t try anything, I’d want the h--- out of there, if I was Lebron.

    We really just lost to a KD-less Warriors in Houston

    We aren’t winning a championship this era. We will never get past the Warriors.

    f--- this league :shmurda:

    The warriors definitely had referee friendly calls on their side. I’m not saying that changed the outcome of the game, but it was clear they were being favorited.

    Harden still going to be known as a choke artist after last night. The last few minutes of the 4th he played terrible. He clearly didn’t trust himself trying for 3s at the end of the game. They could have beaten this warriors team if Harden can ever pull out of the playoff slump. They should have had a big lead going into the 3rd when Steph didn’t even score any points first half. Houston basically lost to the warriors team without Durant and Steph. Steph did clutch when they needed him the most. Harden hides when you need him the most.

    no matter who you cheer for, the playoffs have been really good this year, and I think it’ll continue in the next round

    Blazers may make things interesting in their series vs the Warriors being that Durant may not play and even if does, he may not be himself

    And Bucks vs Raptors should be flat out competitive. Can’t wait for Kawhi vs Gianni.

    The lakers are more of a draw for audience viewers, so they are always favored. Didn’t the lakers get the number one pick for a few years in a row? And always seem to be in the top 5, ever since I started watching the NBA. The NBA lottery is clearly rigged.

    Some good discussion going on now with Zion. He doesn’t want to play for the Pelicans. He wants to play for the Knicks. Colin Cowherd is saying he could see Zion pull out of the draft and play another year of college. I guess I couldn’t really blame him. Maybe the pelicans would trade him for a bunch of picks.

    Nice guessed everything but Kyrie sabotaging his own team. Last years team takes those Bucks to 7.

    I can't be convinced that this was a real shot attempt. Wherever Kyrie lands, I'll be in the stands when his new team comes to town to boo him out of the building.



    I'd really be more bummed about maybe the most underachieving team I can remember, but the Bruins are about to win a cup.

    I’m cheering for them. I’d be happy with a Bruins/Blues final. My dad is a lifelong Bruins fan. I don’t really watch a lot of hockey but it’d be cool for STL to win a ship.

    As for Kyrie, i wonder if he still thinks he could/should be a number 1 option. They shoulda made him the #2, and maybe they tried but you know he wasn’t having that s---. I hope he goes to a s-----y team too, I’m not a fan.
