Do you mean this Westbrook? undecided

Game 1 - 24pts 11assists
Game 2 - 19pts 6 assists
Game 3 - 26pts 15 assists
Game 4 - 25pts 15 assists
Game 5 - 36pts 9 assists

OR Durant's 26ppg? Surely his twin, no?

OR the fact that the Thunder only loss was by 1 point while their average win was 23points? undecided

What were you expecting? A sweep and each player dropping 30 every game?

Was obviously talking about their antics not their numbers. KD throwing elbows and behaving weirdly. I had a lot of respect for him till this series.

That was some serious blitzkrieg by the Hawks.

Clippers probably done but stranger things have happened

Lool at Drake trolling Paul George. The Raptors are a massive disappointment can't believe I picked them to win in 5. If only Indy had anyone besides Paul George

I thought monta ellis was going to show up, i guess him playing besides dirk made defense focus on him less, and more on dirk.

The series would be more fun if ellis played like he played in Dallas

Birdman are you sure you wanna trade James Harden? Cos you are 35-2 in this game without him

Why did the Rockets bother traveling to Oakland? they should have informed the NBA front office they were forfeiting tonight's game and save fans this embarrassment..

Ellis game not going to age well at all. Still can't shoot and not as explosive as he used to be


The Warriors would have swept the Rockets sef. I'd rest him in the 2nd round as well so hopefully he is good to go in the Conference Finals where he would really be needed.

Seeing the Blazers I doubt they would be a match for a Curry-less Warriors though they are really strong at home

Why is no one talking about the Hornets and how close they are to knocking off the Heat

I am rooting for jeremy lin and the hornets so Daryl Morey can understand everything is not about analytics...... Let that man choke grin grin. He really said Beverly is better than Lin. Do not know the difference between him and cuban sometimes to be honest, they gamble a lot lol.

Still prefer cuban though, and on monta ellis, it is sad really, he actually shot the ball well with Dallas, 3 point percentage went up, mid range went up, and i think his FT too.

You really think a curry less warriors can not beat the blazers? That would be a tough series... Warriors in seven, though it can go either way.

Anyone knows who lebron is meeting in second round?

So can we all just talk about what Houston is going to do? Rebuild? Tank, or trade howard? With Harden on the team, they are definitely not rebuilding, they do need better pieces around him though, and honestly, I do not see Durant going there. That is just fry-pan to fire.

thank youuuu!!! morey's overdependence on models has always bothered me...i dont think this guy even knows how to play the game.

harden is lockeroom cancer material. he is not there yet, but its coming. If we ge t a savvy no nonsense GM, Harden's days are numbered.

Cuban that gave Wesley Matthews a Max contract coming off a serious injury una dey make me laff, or is it when he blew up your championship team or when he refuse to pay Nash?
Beverley is a better fit for that backcourt than Lin simply because of how harden plays

morey one mistake was firing mchale and he should catch alot of flak for that but he has done so many good compared to Cuban.

Howard is a free agent and he probably won't opt am interested in seeing who will pay him.

Celtics fans sorry cheesy

This is inexcusable, there is absolutely and i repeat ABSOLUTELY no reason why Beverly should play PG for a team like Houston irrespective of Harden's role in the roaster.. its night and day.

What skill does Beverly bring to the team? like someone always says on this thread, looking tough does not exactly mean one is a good defender, he is a horrendous defender and his looks deceives many to believe other wise.

Abeg make i worry about my team and the possibility of landing KD at the TD Garden tongue grin angry angry

I hope Celtics land KD that would be something.
harden is the PG of the rockets in all but name we saw what adding another ball dominant guard to the team (Lawson) crashed and burned.
but he is at least better than Lawson or Lin defence and he'll knock down the occasion 3.
he is what you need to get the best of harden which is not enough to win it all.

make the hornets win this nite o

why is what am saying such an abomination ?
I never said Beverly was better than Lin. lin is better,just that you will get the best out of harden when he handles the ball more.
I gave a further example with lawson. am really surprised at the reception of what am saying it not like it is new.

@donlittle so nothing in support of Cuban?

Cuban is killing his chances of landing an All star free agent with his mouth, Dirk has been very clear all season that he does not want to be a part of any rebuilding process.

A40 wants the Mavs to toss house money on Whiteside, i am not exactly sure he is a superstar, he may bring interior defense, however, he is no Tyson Chandler and this post season has proven he does not offer any interior offense and is susceptible to becoming disengaged and isolated because he lacks the low post moves.

Rick Carlisle is one of my favorite coaches because he understands tactics, he has managed to keep a fairly average roaster with an aging superstar competitive.
