Survived a game in which Shamet plays half of it. I'll take that every day

Now if only KD could hit more that 12 of his 31 attempts.


Hard to say, but I'd put KJ and Barkley as up there pretty high seeing how they could carve you up aplenty.

Imagine being Booker and literally never shooting FTs. Crazy that Durant has ALL of the FTs.

Who cares? Just don't play Shamet a million minutes.


But we need him to win our first title this year.

Bench played a lot better but still needed a monster performance from Booker and KD.

Let's hope he still has it in him for 3 more wins this series.

I can't stand Monty this game would have been a blown out if he didn't have his head up his ass

Just trying to add another challenge. Would be too easy without him.

Booker about to pass Butler for top scoring in the playoffs.

Could you imagine blaming Booker/KD in this game?

Warren/Jock with all the heart and energy.

Ugly win but I'll take it. Hopefully they can tie it up on Sunday when I'll be there.

No it won't.

This. Doesnt work all the time but when it does we get a different look than Paul walking it up. Paul should be coming off the bench from here on out (if we even survive that long).
