Hard to really say Curry is back to MVP form after one dominant quarter, but the biggest problem for Houston is now they have to take him seriously as a threat while also doing damage control on KD, all while hoping Thompson doesn't have a huge quarter like he typically does once a series or so.  :blink:

Kudos to the Boston Celtics for being the first team in the Conference Finals to lose by 'only' single digits. Yeah, it was 9 and it includes a garbage bucket at the end but it still counts. L0L

It was at least a somewhat more exciting game to watch than the 30 and 40 point blowouts we've been getting lately.

Now THAT was an exciting game.  Kudos to the Rockets for digging deep to get that one.

In hindsight, there were some questionable substitution patterns from Kerr that probability contributed to Houston’s victory.

 

The 19 turnovers to 14 assists is on the players.

Celtics D was stout tonight.  They jumped out to an early lead and never looked back.  The Cavs couldn't get anything going offensively.

Not that I trust the voters, but they agree with me: Kyrie Irving is not a top 6 guard. LMAO

 

As for the Cavs-Bos. Man. That was embarrassing. In some ways, CLE should just lose at home in game 6 if their starting guards don't want to play on the road anyways. LMAO

I like it better when Golden State is up by 41.

I don't watch basketball at all, but I like following the various sports subreddits come playoff time to join in on the excitement. I just realized that I should probably be cheering for the Warriors (being part-Californian and all), but I've been quietly cheering for the underdog this entire time. Plus, Houston and the hurricane and all... Decisions, decisions...

Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

Not sure I really have any interest in a Rockets/Celtics finals but would be an amusing twist

The last two Rockets/Warriors games is akin to watching this:

James is going to have to score 60 points in game 7 if Cavs have any hope of winning. LMAO

If Houston wins then I'll be skipping the finals this year just because I don't care about either team

 SHOCKER.

 

Oops. No really.

 

So, GS in  5  again most likely. Maybe 4. And, I bet 3 of their 4 victories will be because of 3rd quarter beat downs.

Warriors are 12 point favorites for game one.

 

Series Price is pretty tempting for Cleveland.

Cavaliers +650

Warriors -1000

 

Bet $100 to win $650. Golden State will get action, but no way am I putting down $1,000 for a chance to win $100. Not against LeBron — especially when injuries and balls- busting suspensions are possible.

For a second there it looked like we might actually get a different Finals this year, but, alas, it was not to be.  Oh well, like Volo, I expect the Dubs to take this in 5.  The Cleveland LeBrons will win one "statement" game at home, but, otherwise, they are severely outmatched and outgunned.

I was actually worried there for a moment but then JR JRed and I knew they'd take it in overtime

LOL JR Smith  :lol:

Between JR and Hill being doodoo heads and refs being  scum this was a no doubt victory for the Warriors.

 

However, Kudos to Curry. At this rate, James will be the best player but it will be Curry winning MVP as he team crusies to a sweep. Also,  double kudos to Green for hitting a couple of late 3 pointers unlike the Cleveland Clankers.

Lebron was hitting  a lot of 3's. I don't remember him taking so many in the past.

That game has got to be mentally backbreaking for the Cavs.  LeBron had a MONSTER game scoring 51 and they had the game pretty much in the bag if George Hill could have just hit a free throw or JR Smith understood the situation.  Let's hope they recover from that heartwrenching game 1 better than T-Dot did after their stomach punch of a game 1.
