The Westbrook/PG tandem is much scarier without Melo. Too bad it's too little to late and PG is probably out of there this offseason.

Wow, Utah will lose. Down by only 5 late and Gobert passed up a dunk to kick out to an open 3 point shooter who missed. Unbelievable choke job.

Good. Maybe now I can stop hearing that Donovan Mitchell is GOD for a few days and how Hayward leaving was soooo good for Utah. Since somehowthey can paint Hayward out as a villain? I hope OKC comes back and wins the series now.

And second, I don't even care if Lebron beats the Pacers. Why? We aren't winning the east this year anyway and I am soooo tired of the OLADIPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO hype. They are the 5th damn seed........you want it easier in the playoffs then don't be the 5th F'ing seed and face either Lebron or Philly in the first round dumb aazzes.

Mitchell I like but nothing close to Simmons. Simmons will be one scary dude in 4-5yrs.

Otto Porter Jr. max player. Think about that.

Puhlease. Are you comparing Mitch to Otto Porter? And both Simmons and Mitchell are going to be great players.

Yeah I agree with that. But for all the time wasted on unnecessary reviews, a play like that should be reviewable. It's a rule change that needs to happen.


Just to state the obvious, even if they call a goaltend, James’ 3 pointer wins the game. The fact that he still has the ability to make a block like that and now has the clutch 3 point shooting % close to Steph Curry territory is incredible.
"I think the criticism's stupid," Stevens said. "So I don't care. I'm with Jaylen (Brown) on that. Those two had achieved more than most 25 and 26 year olds ever had. I'd rather be in the mix and have my guts ripped out than suck."
