    Wish all teams were completely healthy, would make for some interesting match ups.

    Warriors are going to walk all over Rockets. Rockets have been so bad all season, will be a sweep save for a Harden march to the free throw line.

    Spurs sweep too, Grizzlies are limping into the playoffs. Would possibly be a sweep if healthy too but it would be tougher.

    OKC vs Mavs, I don't think this is the series Westbrook and KD burn out, you can be sure Rick Carlisle is going to make things tough for them. OKC just doesn't have the personnel 3-12 to last in the playoffs.

    Clips and Blazers, the PG match is going to be fun to watch but Blazers don't have the big men to keep up.

    This series will be similar to our series against the Spurs a few years ago with no Kobe. Just a complete wipeout.

    Houston is pathetic, GS toying with them. Fouling Capela to get an extra possession, wow. Dude doubled his free throw percentage from last season, because it was 17%, LOL. How do you shoot 17% from the line and be a professional basketball player?

    lol, the ball just slipped past Howard's hands several times. He needs to up his stickum usage. I can't believe Mark Jackson said Howard is a future Hall of Famer.

    So glad he is not our problem anymore. Whoever throws max money at him..

    Seeing GS toy with Houston is entertaining as hell though.

    He can laugh because he's already a champion. In his own mind..at something unspecified.

    Feel bad for Trevor. Great role player. Great dude. Champion. Deserves better than this trash team. Wish we could get him back somehow.

    I can't blame him for wanting to get paid, but that was seven years ago.

    If memory serves me right, he signed for the same amount Mitch was offering (or slightly more).
    3rd Q and Harden with 0 FT's :D.

    mavs won some games without parsons, but after/alongside dirk, he's their entire offense. since they can't stop okc, they're going to be in trouble.

    great to see harden get called for hooking the defender's arm. where the hell is that call for the 0ther 82 games. he did it constantly and usually got and-1s for it instead of the appropriate offensive foul call. if the league ever decides to officiate him correctly and consistently, his stock will drop precipitously.

    They should have just skipped the 1st round of the playoffs this season, every game has been a joke.
