WOW a warrior player grabs Tony Allen intentionally to stop him from making that fastbreak layup and no call. a pedobear player just stands next to a warrior under the basket and its an automatic call.

can it get any more blatant? why do we suckas still pay to watch this ****?

how many more free throws will the zebras give the fuitys here in last 40 seconds?

wonder if a warrior misses a FT from here on if they would call a lane violation, lol

memphis played some splendid 5 on 8 at the end there.

meanwhile, clipper hater jon barry was holding warriors jock entire time. didn't give memphis one ounce of credit. god damn i hate him

it's incredible to wonder what other possible way NBA will try to tilt the balance and then boom! it happens.

I honestly didn't expect Memphis to be up 2-1 on Golden State. The Grizzlies are really controlling the tempo and I didn't think that would hold up for two straight games. If we can win our series I'd like the Grizzlies and Warriors beat up on each other a little bit.

i never truly understood how so many people could just write off memphis when they got to golden state.

yes, warriors were best team in the league over the year and scary as hell. but memphis was terrifying early in the season too and it was only a matter of time before they sorted it all out. good timing for them that it happened during the playoffs.

all that said, how funny would it be if it came to be a memphis/clippers WCF? and wiz/whoever from bulls/cavs?

that's an unpredictable final set of teams, for sure.

It's super fun watching the Warriors get a taste of that Grizzlies playstyle. Hope their series goes to 7, don't really have a favorite. Guess that's the advantage of having rivalries with everyone, it will make for a great WCF no matter who we get. But we should focus on Houston first, I suppose.

This has been a crazy playoffs. 3 buzzer beaters in the past 3 days, and CP in game 7 with 1 sec left.

Interesting that all 4 under seeds had a chance at home to win and go up 3-1 against the over seeds.

But only we sealed the deal, while the momentum shifted back in all the other series. We haven't won anything yet, but that was a huge win for us yesterday.

We might be the one team to get a break before the next series. I wouldn't really care, but would be nice for CP3.

This is something I didn't expect

I thought he did a great job there with Chris Paul and after he left. Hopefully Monty Williams gets another chance, I think he'd be a good candidate for a franchise that needs a coach.

eh dunno. that one game where gs made that comeback cause they didn't foul curry before the 3 was supremely bad coaching. kinda figured he'd get fired.

I'm sure it had to do with more tban just that. I honestly didn't watch much of Golden State and New Orleans because of other obligations, so I had no idea they had the chance to foul Curry.

Am I the only person who thinks the Bulls would be idiots to get rid of Thibs? He is a great coach and I don't see any FA coaches that would make the Bulls better than what he could.

nickhx2 · Post #1957 » by **nickhx2** » Fri May 15, 2015 11:54 pm

they are definitely idiots. this is really about a power struggle between coach and front office. it's been going on since vdn's days there and maybe even before.
