They have currently turned into the example of how a team set up like theirs, and ours, can get stale and run out of gas. It's a shame, but also highlights how good Steph is really.

The Hawks need a head leader.

What they need is a guy who can "bail them out" on offense. Someone like Lamarcus Aldridge comes to mind;he can help mask some of their half court incompetencies.

Millsap used to score well on the inside in Utah and Horford used to score well enough some three years ago. Those two just didn't come through against Cleveland.

I got you guys in 6, interested to see how the old 2-2-1-1-1 format works going from west to east coast...but it does give Game 5 back to the team opening the series on it's home floor.

I think the key won't be trying to stop LeBron, but stopping his role players should be the focus.

Go get that Championship Dubs !!!!

Do you happen to know how many days are in between the 1-1-1 games?

The 1-1-1 games will be games 4-5-6. There's a 2 day break between games 4, 5 and 6. The thing I found odd was only the 1 day break after Game 2 in Oakland on Sunday night, both team will depart around midnight I'm guessing. Game 3 could be an interesting game in terms of flight fatigue.

Yeah...that kind of sucks....you'd think they'd want these teams fresh. But maybe they figure if home team goes 2-0, it gives the other team a better shot at maintaining their own home court.....not sure.

I think each team wins a road game regardless so I feel like it's going seven games.

Did anyone catch on the teams website on the fans thoughts of the playoffs Adonyle Foyle was on the clip and under his name it said "Warriors Legend."
Can someone tell me when that happened?

Great question.....no he can't....But his post offense and foot work are right there with Cousins.

Here you see the more realistic view of the giant hands...reminds me of Webbers hands.

The guy needs work on his body and defense, but the rest is can't miss.

Turk, we need to teach you how to properly past youtube links, open the full msg submitand then select youtube bracket at the top and past the link inside them!

It always worked before. I even preview it, test it, it works and come back and it's broken. Why is that?

Detroit just traded Shawne Williams and Caron Butler for Ersan İlyasova.

Looks like they may not go after Draymond Green.

That's crazy man. They knew the risk going in but that does suck to hear. Especially since they'll likely grab a PG in the draft. Would have been a nice young nucleus.
