Bubble play has been good. Devin Booker proved himself as an elite player and the Suns are gonna be a problem soon enough. I'm really bummed the clippers don't have the first seed I would have loved to see Dame and PG/Pat Bev  get chippy after that reignited beef still stoked to see the Blazers Lakers series especially the way Dame has been going of these last few games hoping to see some high scoring games. Good luck to your respective teams fellas.

I actually find it a bit annoying that Devin Booker only gets hot at the end of seasons. Like wheres the killing spree in December or January? I think his 70 point game a couple years ago was mad late in the season as well.

Some fun games for sure. Going to be interesting seeing what the Blazers do. Was really looking forward to more of that Dame vs PG and Beverly beef on the court but what are the odds of that happening. Historically, the Clippers have never made it past the second round, will this be the year? Maybe, as much as I'm rooting for Dame and redemption Melo, I doubt they'll get past the Lakers to meet with Clippers. Same as you, good luck to the rest of the teams.

I'll admit I was a bit dismissive of Luka but after watching this series against the Clips I'm a fan. I have the clips in 7 but this was impressive

HAHA you know i wouldn’t even be mad if okc comes back from 0-2. Poetic justice. Shades of T Mac era rockets choke city basketball. 3 brick, 3 brick, 3 brick rinse repeat. Stupid.

As a Nuggets fan, and someone who had $20 on Nuggets -1, I was yelling at my tv at the end and very happy with the result.

Murray def looked kinda hurt after that collision w Ingles, gonna be tough with only a days rest before facing the clippers. At least they were able to come back down 3-1 and win another series. Although these game 7s are stressful lol.

Enjoyed how the refs let all the bodies flop during that last minute. Intense sequence

Bud's rotations got exposed bad by Spoelstra. Giannis standing on the bench sidelines yesterday was a weird look.

GSW would have to put together a massive package for him. and for a year rental? 2nd pick, wiggins, paschal, etc.

Yeah i imagine he’s staying. I mean what haul would be enough for arguably the best player in the NBA rn. Especially now since cp3 to the bucks could happen...

Going to be a dark couple of years for the rockets... no cap, no draft picks, horrible contracts, cheap owner, poor organizational culture... I’ve vested 10 years into this Harden era.

russ has a 2022-2023 player option but wow .. so much dough for his contract. he's the worst fit for that team IMO.

He’s a bad fit for any team Really. He relies so much on his athleticism, so when he hurt his quad he just hasn’t been the same. The turnovers he makes are just sad. Like he forgot how to play basketball. Stands at the 3point line when harden is doubled and hucks (which he’s shooting <20% from) instead of driving to the basket. It’s a mess

Anyways Guess I’ll root for Miami. That’s a fun team to watch..
