Niners Fan in CT Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I doubt either man is suspended but I do think the Rockets take game 4 if Curry is still out. Harden was getting everything he wanted and the only thing holding them back was because they went completely away from Dwight and settled for contested threes the entire second half. Clark and Livingston were great coming off the bench for GS. Green was terrible. Maybe it's time to stop talking and get back to work for him.

JRGoldman Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 I don't know if they stole it from somewhere else or thought of it themselves, but the current meme on FTS (the Cavs blog) is putting a picture of Green next to a picture of Donkey from Shrek and typing "Braymond" and I laugh every time. I can't help it. It's so stupid but so perfect. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_MJ_ Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Speaking of suspensions, there are some loud whispers of a potential Isaiah Thomas suspension next game. I'm actually pretty intrigue by this next Rockets/Warriors game now. Curry is playing, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Well the Hawks have been gifted everything else in the series so why not remove the guy who just scored 42 points as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother punched a dude in the face. That's pretty cut and dry. Also, did anyone else catch Andre Drummond's Misawa elbow on Lebron last night? There has been a lot of rassling moves in the playoffs thus far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_MJ_ Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Well, Isaiah isn't getting suspended. I think this is a good thing because I don't have to hear any of my Boston sports friends do their persecuted gimmick over it. Shout out to Goodell and Ray Allen.

Niners Fan in CT Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Welp, Schroder is making a big deal about Thomas not being suspended. How about you go out and outplay him. Let basketball do the talking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I usually have a good deal of respect for OKC and their team culture, but they have been dirty af in this series. KD especially. Really shocked to see him play like that, when he doesn't need to. On top of that, OKC keeps playing their starters in garbage time with double digit leads. I love how hard the Mavs are fighting, but man we are just hopelessly outgunned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabremike Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 This year's playoffs are just a boring waste of time and the only series worth caring about is the inevitable GS-SA matchup. Seriously this is the worst playoffs in quite awhile so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneybrown Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I think you are seeing the real Thunder in this series. Durant is not quite the nice guy everybody thinks he is, and that flagrant out of nowhere is an example. That was a flat-out cheap shot. Quote Seriously this is the worst playoffs in quite awhile so far. Just out of curiosity, which 1st round in the past rocked your world? Because they usually suck every year aside from the at-most 2 series that have any intrigue. And the one that does this year involves two teams who I can't name more than three players on either side for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodhelmet Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I am actually pretty intrigued with how the next round will shape up. Cleveland - Miami should be interesting. OKC vs. SA is a pick em considering OKC has owned San Antonio with their 3 guys healthy. The Warriors should handle the Clippers easily but Currys gimpy ankle may be worse than the Warriors are letting on. I think this shit burger of a first round is the cost of getting a really interesting 2nd round. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heck even the Nets-Hawks from last year was competitive. This year it's nothing but Road Warriors vs Jobbers type squashes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niners Fan in CT Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I'm hoping for #BuzzCity and the Blazers to continue to make some noise. Those could be interesting series. Indiana/Toronto is interesting but I don't think anyone has seen a minute of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 The first round in 2014 was actually really good. Mavs/Spurs, Grizz/OKC, GSW/Clips, Nets/Raptors and Rockets/Blazers were all really fun series. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 That was the best first round in quite some time and spoiled us. NBA and the NHL playoffs are completely opposite in how they trend over the rounds. NBA gets better as the cream rises to the top, whereas the NHL playoffs have a bunch of beat up and exhausted players playing on shitty ice. I'm enjoying the hockey while I can before the good basketball kicks in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fowler Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 There were more twenty point or more blowouts in the first three days of this postseason than the first two rounds combined last year. This year has been notably worse than normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goodhelmet Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 Then again, the Warriors are playing Houston ho just allowed the Warriors to double them up in the 3rd quarter and take a 19 point lead. So much for the Rockets getting more than a game out of this series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
