The knicks are a joke and the heat is the worst team in the playoffs.

Winner of Philly/Boston gets a free ride to the finals.

don’t wanna Stan for Allen but Is it really his fault? Everyone else just sat on the 3pt line. Giannis took himself out after he almost flattened the defender in front of him.
he was put in a bad spot but he still has to be aware of the time.

And you cant try to pull out your entire arsenal with 1.x secs left

Run and dunk man going home.

It’s amazing this guy is lauded as best player in the league when if harden and irivng didn’t get hurt v BKN he never ever been out the second rd in a decade long career.

Big time fraud. Holiday is sad too tbh.

Herro may have been addition by subtraction.

Boston still has to get past Atlanta after that choke job last night.

Meh, this is the Warriors Invitational anyway. At the end of the day, the cream rises to the top. Meh.

I have always thought Bud looks like the disgruntled IT worker who can't believe that you clicked on the Spam link in your email.

Unreal Western conference semifinals setting up. Denver/Phoenix and Warriors vs Lakers or Memphis is going to be something.

Im not a hater but Jesus Butler pushed off so hard on that game winner. Like straight bench pressed that dude so hard they both went flying in opposite directions

I'm very impressed by Jimmy and the Heat. They got a headstart in the series with Giannis being hurt. But they still nailed off 2 victories in a row with him back in the lineup. They did all this with their 2nd leading scorer injured.

I gotta say, I really don't know who wins it all anymore. I've had the Bucks picked since the first game of the season

Warriors struggling with such a median team does not bode well for later rounds. Sac has the talent of a 6 seed first rd losing team. Given GSW fits.

I think they'll get better as they go further with Wiggins getting more comfortable.

If that's not the biggest upset in NBA history I don't know what is. The favorites to win it all, with the best player in the league, go down to a wounded 8 seed Miami team.


Nothing will ever top the We Believe Warriors beating a 67 win Mavs team in 6 in 07. Dirk won the MVP that year and after losing in the finals the year before the entire season felt like a long coronation for that Mavs team only for them to get shite on by a Warriors squad that finished a game over .500 and barely made the playoffs on a tie breaker. That shite was insane. Andries Biedrins tha GOAT

Seriously? Sacramento has the best offense in the league by several metrics, and they played absolutely out of their minds the first few games, along with getting plenty of help from the officials. GS has struggled on the road all year and handled their opponent anyway despite another horrible night of trash officiating. They'll be fine going forward.
