    Yeah Lebron and Kyrie will just go HAM and probably beat the Bulls by themselves anyways.

    That really sucks that Love will probably be out for the rest of the playoffs. If I'm not mistaken, he never made it to the playoffs in Minnesota. Now he finally gets there and this happens.....awful!

    Lot of talk on the C's forum about going after Harrison Barnes this summer. They would have to take on maybe a David Lee(1 year/15.5M) or Iggy(2 years/23 M), but GS will be desperate to free up room for Draymond Green. Barnes would get the chance to be THE guy in Boston. Definitely a move i could see Danny making.

    I love Harrison Barnes! I was at Snow Valley basketball camp with him when I was younger and remember him playing with Doug McDermott in high school. I'm not sure how he'd do as THE guy, but Boston would benefit from having him IMO.

    Ya its a low risk, high reward move though. Barnes is the 4th option on offense for the Warriors, hard to say how he would do as the 1st option as hes never had the chance. With the Celtics not being a draw for free agents, its the type of moves they have to make.

    NBA playoffs have bored the h--- outta me so far, but this Spurs/Clippers game is huge, both teams really need to win it. Clippers just dominated the 1st quarter until the last couple minutes and the Spurs went on a little run. So right now it's Clippers up by about 5, but very early still obviously.

    I definitely want the Spurs to win.

    Sorry I was working on something for class tomorrow and didn't feel like expanding what I said, but the Rockets tweeted this:
    [​IMG]
    It has since been deleted and they apologized for it. The Mavs also responded with a tweet saying "Not very classy, but good luck" or something like that. The tweet was a d-ck move tbh, but I love how NBA twitters are these days. I wish Miami's was more humorous.

    Anyone watching this game? This 3rd quarter might be the most boring quarter of basketball I've seen in my life. They were doing 'hack a shaq' or whatever you wanna call it with DeAndre Jordan for a long time, eventually took him out of the game but ever since there's still been free throws basically every other possession. This is ridiculous, there's been 59 FTs so far in the game..

    It's finally picking up a little at the end of the 3rd here, 4th should be good hopefully.

    The Clippers ended that quarter going insane. The fadeaway from Big Baby, Crawford's weird jumpre/layup, and then Rivers' buzzer beater... Just a crazy end to a shittty quarter of ball.

    I wanted the Clippers to win. But now that they're down 3-2....it looks like that won't be happening. To me, the same team(s) winning in a sport over and over again is boring unless it's your team of course. I have nothing against the Spurs, but I'm ready to see some fresh faces in the NBA Finals. Seeing the Clippers advance to the second round would be cool because we all know how little success they've had in their past.

    I think the Clips kinda got screwed by the refs last night, but like I always say, refs don't miss the shots or commit turnovers. CP3's technical was weird. Clippers also gotta make free throws and rebound the basketball late in games, which they did not do. As much as I'd like to blame the officials, the Clips lost this game themselves.

    I don't want that Spurs/Clippers series to end. This would be a really impressive run for SA if they somehow make it to the finals going through the Clips, Rockets, and Dubs.

    I agree it'd be impressive, but I don't think they'd have a hard time getting through Houston.

    Yeah Clippers are a tough matchup for them with their size and athleticism up front.
