    But Mark Jackson told us last night Lue was a great coach.

    Jackson is horrible. I pretty much hate all of the NBA tv guys
    I love Van Gundy and Mark team up.  Oh man.

    I've mixed thoughts on Ryan Rucco...
    I think Van Gundy is annoying too. Then you have Chris Weber and Reggie Miller over on TNT. Horrible.

    I miss the days when NBC had the NBA. 
    I am just OK with miller.  I do like Webber though. 

    I miss Craig Sager...

    Much better opening montage/music on NBC too. John Tesh is a musical genius.
    I never took much stock in John Tesh and his musical chops...

    How much stock do you put in sarcasm?
    Hahahaha. I thought u were serious Hahahaha. There are tesh nuts out there, lol. 
    I've posted this somewhere before, but here you go!

    I'm very upset with the ROckets.  How dare you not get swept...

    I'll be shocked if they win another...

    If Curry can't start playing like Curry they'll win at least one more. With that said there is ZERO chance Tucker, Gordon & Ariza all play that well again. If any of them surpass their totals from last night in another game I'd be shocked. Warriors defense was completely oblivious last night. With that said Houston played great and even had the Warriors played at their optimal level I think they might have still come up short.

    I agree with every pick but Tatum for ROY- it's voted on regular season only, so he's not even top 2 on that one. 

    Williams will probably win 6th man, which is a bullshit award anyway. They only give it to the highest point scorer off the bench.
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me

    3 days off between games for both series.  NBA is the worst.

    Anybody notice how many blowouts there have been in the NBA playoffs the last few years?

    It's like once a team gets behind they just stop trying.

    41 point beatdown last night.

    41 points.

    126-85.  Warriors go up 2-1.

    It's been noticing this for a while, not just this season. Home team gets the momentum and everything snowballs. I remember last years Finals being 4 blowouts and one close game. Seems like if a team can steal one road game a series they are pretty much advancing. Houston losing Game 1 was fatal in my opinion, now they are left having to win at least one game in a place where almost nobody wins, against an all time great team... good luck.
