Maybe. I think Memphis/Houston gotta be the blackest. And Warriors crowd for most Asian.

Hadn't noticed. Just not much to talk about game wise and it caught my eye as they did some scan the fans dancing in stoppage of play thing.

This was a scheduled loss. They stole home court advantage. They played a 7 game series and a tight game 1. They'll probably adjust and come back hard to take an eventual 3-1 lead.

Jokic has been uncharacteristic with his turnovers. He has to play perfect games like he previously has to get them past this OKC squad.

Truth hurts. OKC is dirty.

That's not news. Everyone knows it.

It's up to Adelman to make sure the refs are on it for future games.


generally they use green for sarcasm here buddy


I wasn't being sarcastic, so no green.

Buddy.



Good to see Russ mixing it up. That's what you have to do with a team like this.

I have been going with Dortmond since the start of the season.

Watching that dude spear people like he is Goldberg made me turn on him.

I have to say it is hilarious watching Caruso able to handcheck dudes again now that he is on a contender.


He like chop blocked Jokic in the first half. Hilarious.
