I'd say at both teams' best its not close, but Golden State has only like a 5% chance to be their best at any time this postseason due to injuries (also KD could theoretically pass the tech limit I think). Given what is likely the health status of both teams (70%ish Steph, Klay back but not in form, KD mostly all the way healthy) GSW would be slight favorites.

If CP3 continues to play this poorly though, the Rockets aren't going anywhere.

Not that this will happen, because Cp3 and harden are the best shot makers in the series, but that is literally the story of every Miami Heat series: They took shitty shots and still won


I don't know why you continue to make stuff up. Miami was always at the top of the league in efg% and the record they set was broken by the Warriors a few years later.

Anyway playoff CP3 is one of the best ever. He played like shit game 1. I think the chances for a Houston sweep are like 85% though.

At full strength it like 55% Houston to 45% GS. Main reason is Houston has HCA. They are really that good though. Some of their lineups just make some guys on GS unplayable: Nick Young, Livingston, and McGee probably don't see enough court time vs Houston. On the other side GS has Durant who is a true nightmare at his peak.

Fred VanVleet does not look like he is any where near 100% tonight. It looks like his right shoulder is still bothering him.

Satoransky gave the Raptors fits all year... its a good move by Brooks to use him more in the 1st half.

How does Miami having a good Efg% rebut the statement that they took shots that would be bad shots for 90% of the league, and made them anyways? How does that rebut the insanity that was the Pacers/Bulls playing 20+ seconds of perfect defense only to watch a contested, contortionist shot end up going in ( and they would inevitability brick several open threes in crunch time because neither had shot makers).

Because if they're leading the league in efg after 82 games those clearly aren't bad shots. Stop overthinking things.

either scott brooks is stupid or he doesnt see what u claim. lawson got 31 mins while satoransky got only 14 minutes

10 4 3 4-9 3TO -1 plus/minus 27 min feb 1 W
10 8 6 4-7 6TO -2 plus/minus 35 min mar 2 L

these are his stats in 4 reg season games, looks like 2 decent game at most. i dont know how u could call that "giving fits all year"? and then he was awarded with less minutes than a guy who was just playing ball in china a week ago.

I was mostly taking about the playoffs, but yes. They also were the most talented team assembled of the 21st century.

If Portland QQs at all about this game, they should be flushed.

Rondo 3. LOL. Although, I think he could have just driven for an easy poster as well.

Completely agree and I was impressed with Lawson's play, considering he was out of the league in China just before the playoffs (that might have more to do with his off the court shit then his play mind you). I think he will sign somewhere next year.

The Raptors look like have turned it up another gear in the playoffs, they have man handled the wizards. Beal had a terrible game last night and I don't expect that to continue, be interesting to see how much push back they give when they bounce back to Washington for game three.

Ibaka has been the most improved Raptor in the playoffs. Perhaps it is the more rest? Whatever it is he is looking worth his contract and giving the Wizards fits.


i know the pace is super high, but i would really like to see the raptors play better D, they're not gonna hit 50 3s every game.

LeBron going off tonight. Score is 11-0 3 minutes into first quarter. LeBron has all 11 points on 5/5 shooting. I'd tune in if you're not doing anything else, who knows what's going to happen...

you know for someone as good as james, it is such a surprise that he is such a poor free throw shooter (relative to everything else that he is so good at)
