    He's the best player I've ever seen play. I did not watch Jordan unfortunately. I appreciate it.

    Just because he's great doesn't mean you should root for him.

    I don't have a friend that isn't disgusted with me that I'm a lebron fan.

    I have accepted my position in life.

    Raptors must have been suffering from jetlag, flying into another country an all that.

    Didnt see game but the shooting stats looked ugly, toronto couldnt hit the side of a barn or bucks couldnt miss relatively speaking

    It was surreal watching it. Bucks aren't a 3 point team, but they were falling at a great rate. Every shot Toronto took was a brick. It was just fantastic defense. Derozan didn't make a single basket.

    I'm nervous for that game. It's a very young team. I could see a letdown happening. A win to go up 3-1 though would be a near fatal blow. That Cavs series would be very intriguing.

    I suppose that's 1 plus. Plus they have better depth than the Cavs do. They had a better record in the final stages of the regular season as well.

    I'll take it 1 day at a time though, and worry about Saturday first.

    Cavs were defensively average at the end of regular season
    As you say 1game at a time

    All the awe at the Cavaliers comeback yesterday is nonsensical. How many two seeds have ever trailed a 7 seed by 25 points at halftime to even have to comeback from?

    It's not as if they came back in the conference finals. They came back in the first round against a team they shouldn't have even been trailing by 25 against.

    Such media manufactured bullshit. Hardly a big deal.

    I've been calling okc 4 games and swept since a month ago. The team isn't going anywhere, and that should be obvious right? At least my home team has a chance to be the Cinderella this year.

    I'm praying a top level talent wants to come to OKC to team with Russ, and get that team back to top 3 seed territory.

    The luck O' the Irish is real!!!!

    Rondo being lost for the series is an enormous game changer... C's didn't have an answer for him. and their PG depth is pathetic.

    His injury can definitely alter the series.

    That's crazy. Derozan is probably the best scorer in the East. Hard to believe that happened.

    In other words, "Yes".
