    That GS game was great too.  I give Deaaron Fox crap but man that guy can play.  I changed my mind about him.  
    He looked great yesterday.

    I had heard that he is a true star now and grew up.  He looked amazing.  Good for him.  I loved him in college.

    I ain't a LeBron James fan but what Brooks did you him was uncalled for and he got what he deserved.
    Right. Brooks acting like a Sixer and going after the family jewels is uncool.

    It wasn't intentional. He's going to swipe at the ball and Bron goes behind the back and jumps right. 
    It was worthy of a flagrant 2 but nothing more.

    Potentially the two remaining teams with the best records in the NBA playing each other in the 2nd round. They really should reseed after the 1st round.

    NBA playoffs have been spectacular thus far, even with taking into account the injuries. 

    Both top 2 seeds in the East are in danger of not making it out of the first round. I think the Celts hang on, but the Heat can close it out tonight. This stuff rarely ever happens.

    That is playoff basketball now though.  Some teams turn it up in the playoffs while others play great in the regular season.  Bucks bench isn't doing it this year.  Miami is deep.

    Look at Kevin Love, he is like the 4th option now on that team as a starter, it's nuts.

    Yeah, but 1 and 2 seeds usually dispense of their opponents in sweeps or gentlemen sweeps. I think this is an indicator that there is, at least slightly, more parity than before. A lot of good teams, but no great ones currently. 

    I was hoping the Sixers would get Love when he became available.

    Sixers even need him?  Herro is out for Heat so he is a good fit now.

    You've got Maxey and Thybule.

    Love's a stretch 5/forward. Maxey is a guard and they traded Thybulle.

    I would have much preferred they signed Love as opposed to Dewayne Dedmon, yeah. lol

    Thybule is gone? I liked him.

    Maxey can shoot outside as can Love and every other NBA player now.

    So you have Embiid that's not really a center nor is Love.  They can both play PF stretch positions.  I don't think anyone needs an actual center unless you play against Gobert.

    I'd have picked Love over Deadmon too.

    Wait....you do not think Joel Embiid is a center?
