    That is definitely true; consistent shooting is key to any 7 game series.

    But also what's not sustainable is other teams shooting 50% from 3, which seems to have been a handful of our losses, so as long as that doesn't get out of hand, I love our chances.

    Big time game from Avery Bradley.

    Great statement weekend from the team.

    I get the feeling we're a pretty good team.

    Beverley was never the same once Bradley showed him who was daddy. Where was Lou Williams or Reggie Jackson to counter Bradley? These Clippers are so funny that their home game was basically them chanting MVP for LeBron. So sad... In other news, Steve Balmer just realized he made a huge mistake thinking he can try to compete with the Lakers. He will be selling the team soon once we beat them down to a pulp in the playoffs.

    But Beverly gets away with bodying Lebron after a foul and slapping the ball after the whistle. Marcus Morris standing over AD after a hard foul too.

    Such garbage.

    Still rivers run deep... That was a nice rip and score in the first. Memo to the refs: let them play you candy a*** *************!

    I have officially turned off the spotlight looking for the 3rd option, so Kuz is off the hook. I now accept 3rd Option by Committee, game to game until we win a championship this year.

    Great game AB, Kuz, KCP, and Chief.

    With a Bucks loss tonight, the Lakers will be 2.5 games behind the Bucks for the best record in the NBA. But there are some here who want to fire Vogel and wish we did not trade for AD. Unbelievable!

    What an incredible effort today. If Waiters can give us anything off the bench, we are going to be very, very good.
