Wow

Griffin and Crawford switching way too easily.

Lol at Chris Paul's reaction to ISO Joe

What did he do?

I like what Lebron said:
"I can only speak for myself. When you're doubling me, I'm giving it up. That's me," James said. "I don't know how everybody else feels about that, but if you get a double, I think we all know math in here: There's two guys on the ball, and that means there's a 4-on-3. You have your numbers. So if you're the best player on the floor, that doesn't mean you have to take the shot. I think he made the right play, and you live with the results."

I loved how pissed CP3 was when JJ drove to the basket earlier

He jumped like spoiled child when mummy didn't want to buy him a candy

Chris Paul is amazing, I don't care what anyone says. Smallest guys on the court getting stops so many times on defense in the clutch.

Lowry continues his tradition of choking in the post season. Why anyone picks Raps to win anything in the playoffs is beyond me.

Well, in fairness, we took Mike Pence off their hands. Taking back Mahinmi is the least they can do.

Cause Toronto isn't only Lowry. But I have to admit it becames more clearly that he is mentally weak player. You can't explain his poor post season play year after year with health

Assuming Cobra meant this:
http://thebiglead.com/2017/04/15/paul-george-threw-c-j-miles-under-the-bus-for-taking-final-shot-against-cavs/

I kind of agree with George in one sense, but he really shouldn't have said that. If CJ was set and taking a shot in rhythm, that would be one thing, but it was a low percentage shot. PG was hot, but again, I can't see how this helps.

He's really streaky. If he starts of bad, he rarely recovers.

Butler/Wade/Rondo have all been impressive.

Celtics are in for some trouble. You need rebounding and size in the postseason, can't get very far without it.

I liked Portis a bunch in the draft. He is going to be really good.

Yeah a lot of us were on that train when we thought we'd be picking at 22. Based on what I've seen, still iffy on Portis longterm upside but he played well tonight. He should have a favorable matchup this series due to Boston's lack of true bigs.

Bulls won vs refs and flopping Celtics team. Beautiful day.
Quick question who would you rather in second round Boston or Chicago?

Happy for Nene. He's lost a good amount of weight and looks spry out there tonight.
