If the goal is championships... Want no part of DeRozan. Want no part of Harden. Want no part of Howard.

Festus is a guy I'd certainly target next year in free agency. Dude is legit.

A Russian novel has been instantly written on that game on the Raptors board: hundreds of pages and a sad ending.

As long as he's medically cleared, I'd be all over that as Sully replacement/upgrade.

Beverely may have made a mistake in trying to rough up Curry since now it calls more attention to the off the ball fouls since the refs won't want the game to get out of control.

A better strategy appears to be to foul but in a more understated way like the Spurs do. But if the Rockets could just get Curry thrown out of the game with another technical that would obviously work for them as well.

With the way they played all season, Rockets don't even deserve to get blown out and swept by the Warriors. I personally wanted the Jazz as the potential team to give Dubs fits in the 1st round (they'd probably even do better than we did against the Cavs last season).

Ok, I know +/- isn't the be all stat, but -28 at the half for Harden is pretty friggin gruesome.

I also feel that way, its why I was rooting for the Raptors today, but switch out the Knicks and Rockets for me.


Lol damn. That's cold.

I'm ok with Houston. Golden State has taken 11 shots, 7 were 3's. I just can't get behind that type of basketball.

Yeah, I don't love that type of ball either, but Houston just chucks 3's or shoots ft's too.

At least GSW makes their 3's & they do hit some spectacular shots.

But I feel you. GSW is fun but it's annoying to just watch pump fake, hand off dribble dribble, pump fake till someone chucks a 3. Either that ORR.. high pick & roll, & the guard just chucks a crappy 3 off the pick. Very boring & predictable.
