Has there been an alpha on a title team that doesn't at least have above average BBIQ? All the greats seem to be high-level thinkers on the basketball court -- Magic, Bird, MJ, Lebron, Kobe, etc. The more I watch him, I don't think Anthony Davis falls into this category.

Houston the entire year: Let's live and die by the three.
Lakers this series: Let's not let Houston take threes.

Lakers rotations and closeouts have been great. I hate to see them doing well. Clippers need to take these fools out.

How many times can Lebron have 12 points in a Playoff game and still get a blowout win over a good team? This Laker team is **** good.

Had a bad feeling about the Lakers as soon as the bubble began. A rested Lebron for months just before the post season is everyone’s nightmare.

Kawhi, please do it.

How do you let Caruso get 16 pts. Rockets are embarrassing

Harden just shot 2-11 in a loss, and had the best +/- of the starters on his team.

This makes sense because he went 16-20 in FTs and scored 21 overall points.

He also chimed in with 10 assists, three steals, and two blocks.

I didn't watch the game, so I can only talk box score.

Same here. The point of my post was mainly that from memory Kemba had the exact same 2-11 figure in what overall was a much worse game.

This is from yesterday (the 10th).

I mean while it is likely it is LA vs. LA, shouldn't you wait until it's official? lol

So apparently Giannis unfollowed the Bucks and all of his Bucks teammates on social media. Definitely a bold move considering he is under contract through next season.

His teammates won a game without him. He needs to start looking at himself and his holes in his game that get exposed in the post season.

The Bucks have always been pretenders. The only reason why they even got as far as the conference finals last year was because the Celtics' locker room was the most dysfunctional mess I've ever seen. We were far more talented top to bottom and honestly should have beaten them.
