    Oubre got ejected for charging Olynyk.

    Can I send him a thank you card?

    It was a pretty dirty move though by your favorite center.

    I take all opportunities to hate on Olynyk, but I've seen way worse 1000 times.

    The wizards have 16 more shots than the C's at halftime, that has to be close to a record.

    My highlight of the BOS@WAS game;

    The guy that was caught by the mic about 8 times just yelling "You're garbage!"

    Each time. No name, no insinuation of who he was talking about... Just "You're garbage!"

    The game, that was pathetic... The Celtics have the nature of winning closely and losing terribly. Gortat only had 1 less rebound than the entire starting unit. Wizards are also averaging 40 points each 1st quarter...

    Just need to win 1 on this trip.

    The big men of the Spurs may be soft, but you thinking this was some serious contender in Houston is a joke. Tried to tell people lol.

    Don't mistake the Rockets knocking a one dimensional Thunder team out as being ready. They are the same offense-only douchebag team have been for a while.

    They just sometimes play over their heads.

    I think Houston wins game 4 by 20 pts at least, then the series is up for grabs. It's not because Houston is for real, its because neither team is for real, but at least the Spurs aren't trying to win a series at the free throw stripe.

    Both will go down in 6 or less games against Golden State. It just won't hurt my pride as bad as yours, since Durant is probably going to hoist the finals MVP.

    But Russy may win the league MVP for chasing stats out of spite. Consolation prize for ya.

    I have respect though. You stuck with your team while other people have backup teams. Some people even had 3 backup teams lol.

    Both series in the east have been very 1 sided.

    CLE dominated TOR, and WAS has dominated the Celtics for the most part and only have 2 wins because IT went off for 53 game 2.

    It's a shame it was a sweep. If only Milwaukee didn't blow that series, I think they could have at least won 1 game in a Cavs series.

    Milwaukee probably would've won a game and Toronto probably would've too, except Lowry sprained his ankle in Game 2 and missed both home games. Hard to beat the Cavs without your most important player.

    Lol i don't think anyone but the warriors are a serious contender... I just see a rockets team that has some match up advantages vs SA that's all. I agree both will go down to GS though. KD ruined a great conference. The western playoff battles will never be the same now that everyone is playing to lose to GS, just like in the east those teams play to lose to LeBron.

    Guess i'll never see my boy win a ring now. At least you've seen that moment on multiple occasions already.

    ESPN wonder's while their ratings are tanking while they create a platform for currently the 2 most annoying people in sports, Lavar Ball and Draymond Green, to get material published daily... With honorable mention to Steven A-hole-for-a-mouth- Smith.

    this postseason, home teams facing elimination are 0-9

    Many of those games were blowouts, to boot.

    so the conference favorites both swept in the second round, and in both series, the underdog lost its point guard to a foot injury, and the PG missed both home games
