I'm not going to be around the screen for this one. Good luck to the Rockets and let's get this one finished early!

Need to pick up the pace. Too slow right now.

Harden's got to dunk that. Put the exclamation mark on it and fire up your guys.
Edit: The open layup, not that one.

Wolves are hitting everything, but our defense has been abysmal.

Guess I made the right choice playing Division and watching the World Series Champion Astros tonight, just tuned in to the Rockets and...eww.
Saul Goodman, didn't expect a sweep. That's a good team over there, yo.

Oh well, onto the next 2. Still not happy with how the seedings panned out. The T-Wolves are realistically a 3rd seed if it weren't for Butler's injury. Pathetic display by the Blazers AKA fake 3rd seed.

Portland should have done better in that series. They ARE the better team (by a bit).
https://www.teamrankings.com/nba/stat/average-scoring-marginThe Wolves, I mean, Butler missed 23 games, but.. so did Paul for us.
Now that I look at it, we might be THE WORST team to ever win 65 games, in terms of health.
We missed a LOT of games. I don't think the competition is particularly weak right now, either. The league seems absurdly strong right now.
Here's a question for you....
How does point differential, across all the teams in the league, correlate with league strength in a given season?
Is the league stronger if more teams are positive on PD?
Is it stronger when more teams are clumped in the middle with strong outliers?
Is it stronger when fewer teams are positive on PD?
I'm referring to "stronger" as "overall strength of competition". How many really good players are in the league? Is it harder or easier to win on any given average night?
I think it's .... you probably want 2-5 really good teams, 4-8 decent teams, and 10 or so mediocre teams, with the last 7 to 12 being punching bags who are "training camps" for future talent.

Once upon a time, if he made the thread we lose.
Then, if he didn't make the thread, we lose.
NOW, if he doesn't even watch the game, we lose.
WTF!
