We should share some streams in here for poor people without cable.
Cant find an HD stream of this game but http://www.nba.com/tntovertime/ is working alright
Anyone got a better link?
I'm watching on overtime, but this channel has NBA TV and TNT's live television broadcasts.  It's not as clear for me as overtime, but it's pretty decent and serviceable.

i aint mad at em for it. obviously he'd be a huge help right now but it was financial decision & they got the best possible return at the time with Martin. If anything it just goes to show how important Westbrook is for this team.

I think that team deserved one more year to go at the title in okc. I suppose you get modified Russ and Ibaka flocka flame out of shipping harden out early but who's to say he would have played himself out of a job in a contract year? In my mind the move was always to wait at the end of the year and get a sign and trade done.

Spurs doing everything better this game , deffence , offence , rebounds , shooting , Everything

If they stop missing so much , like manu and some others , just play smart and for the team , pick up rebounds

then they got the next game too


Spurs - warriors are the only good games ,  Heat are too dominant , and the other games are abit low on score and just too meeeeeh

well what should I say ? I mean if they were not taking the shots at all they would need to shoot more , if they are missing the shots they need to make them .

I mean at the end of the day should we just say . If they played better they would win ?  cant be that general eh ?

More like JR Smith. Reigning 6th man of the year & he has been trash these past several games. I like what Shaq & Kenny had to say about him last night. He's always had that all-star talent but has been known to be immature & lack focus. If he wants to prove to himself & everybody else he's ready for the spotlight, nows the time. Ive always been a fan so I hope he goes for like 30 off the bench tonight, and plays well enough to push this series to a game 7.

JR has all the athletic ability, yet he settles for contested jumpers.. It's like yeah you're wide open but only because he's one of the best dunkers in NBA history.

Immaturity on the Knicks is hard to watch, it's not just JR.. they complain on every call and don't act like professionals.  Chucking teams don't work in playoff basketball. Mike Brown is the coach of the year IMO for putting up with their bullshit

Current news, Miami is taking care of business. NOONE CAN BEAT THIS TEAM

The Thunder shot like shit tonight but Tony Allen's defense on KD was still god-like. I'm starting to like this team more and more. Kind of hope they take the western conference this year. It'd be cool to see them take on the Warriors.

That okc game was infuriating to watch. Not enough offensive rebounding and uncharacteristically bad ball handling. KD was trying to do too much and scott brooks shouldve reeled him in a little bit and got them playing faster earlier, or at least use Durant to draw defenders better. That series was winnable, they werent losing by huge margins either but the panic in their systems really got to them. The knicks series will probably end the same way this one did. Also the Grizzles are fucked if the spurs beat the warriors.

What makes yall so sure the Spurs can beat Memphis? Remember 2 years ago when they were the number 1 seed & got knocked out the first round? Memphis' physicality might be too much for the older spurs, the only way they will win that series is if Manu, Parker, & Duncan put up very good numbers every game.

Yeah why the hell are some people acting like the Grizzlies are done once they meet the Spurs? Paker and Manu are going to have to deal with Conley and Tony Allen guarding them. Not to mention they also have the defensive player of the year in Marc Gasol down low. Golden State can be scrappy defensively, but Memphis is much more rugged and on another level. It is going to be a damn good series.

Would've rather SA played OKC w/o Westbrook but whatevs.  Memphis vs. SA is a solid Western Conference Finals....it'll be a physical series, but I think the Spurs have more experience, better coaching, and shoot the 3 ball way better than Memphis, giving them the edge.

I'd be much more into watching the Heat and respect them if they had to go through the western conference. I think they match up well against OKC, but teams that can score in the post and have a deep roster can take the Heat. Lucky for them they dont even have to try until the finals because of how much of a joke the eastern conference is. They can afford to not really have a healthy Wade, and last year they did the same with Bosh. In a western conference series that shit wont work. Every game is critical.

and by the way that is mike woodson coaching the knicks. not brown.

Yeah if you're a spurs fan you would want to see them play OKC without Westbrook. But as a fan of the NBA in general, why would you ever want that matchup? Its a given the spurs would win. OKC isnt going to beat teams past the 2nd round without Westbrook. 

As far as coaching goes, Pop is easily the best coach in the league. but Hollins one hell of a coach too.

UGLY game tonight in NY, Pacers got screwed by the refs but that's standard in extending the series. Hibbert's 2nd foul was one of the worst i've ever seen

I don't know why everyone is so dismissive about the Grizzlies. They can potentially beat the Spurs, and I will take it a step farther than that. If they play Miami in the Finals...It is a toss up and the only reason I lean towards Miami is because they were there last year. Other than that, I would have sided with the Grizz. Their strengths are exactly what Miami would not want to go against. We are not talking about one dominant figure down low but 2, in Z-Bo and Gasol. That would be a great series.

No doubt, Spoelstra made the heat an amazing team. Not that guy named Lebron James being the best player on the planet teamed up with two other superstars and solid role players...
