Interesting how similar KD's career arc is to Lebron's with the early finals loss and then the "not scoring in the fourth quarter and seemingly pouting" bit. He'll get absolutely crucified if they miraculously lose this series too considering ESPN doesn't really any compelling stories for casual sports fans. Hope he recovers quickly.

Hope people realize now just how insanely good Russell Westbrook really is though.

Scotty Brooks = Mike Brown.

Lebron James = Lebron James.

No point in making the moves the made of players are stashed in Tulsa for 2 years and by the time they are good you have to trade them too. We'd be better off being a 4 seed with players ready to play. Pop gets that. Brooks does not.

Bottom line without Russ this team is done. Especially, with him making KD point guard. Doesn't matter if its this round or next round. Had no idea how this team would look without RW0 but its not pretty.

lol, well shitty, just play til they get waxed out by houston or the next round. I havent followed much on if he's done for the play offs or not.

oh well, not my team. it happens. Heat go back to back. lol

Scott Brooks wishes he was the coach Mike Brown is and that is not tongue and cheek what so ever.

Westboro was protesting at the game last night because Durant said he supported Jason Collins. If there is a hell they should be at the front of the line.

Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 5m

NBA has fined Mark Jackson $25,000 for an "attempt to influence the officiating" after Game 5 vs. Denver.

Al Bundy · 05-02-2013, 04:50 PM

Sounds like the NBA is covering for officials tonight. Hopefully the refs call a fair game.

**dirk digler** · 05-02-2013, 08:25 PM

Looks like David Lee is coming back tonight. Wow

Al Bundy · 05-02-2013, 08:27 PM

David Aldridge ‏@daldridgetnt 10m

David Lee (torn R hip flexor), thought out for playoffs, indeed going to "give it a go" tonight for Warriors, per source. @GoodmanCBS first.

Derrick Rose looking better by the second...

Players don't know how to line up on jump balls anymore.

Al Bundy · 05-02-2013, 08:50 PM

Good... I hate the Bulls, they don't deserve to win anything for 100 years.

KevB · 05-02-2013, 08:50 PM

that was a terrible toss by the official, threw it straight over his own head so Noah had to reach back and get it

dj56dt58 · 05-02-2013, 08:51 PM

Rose can grow a pair any day now

Brooklyn is one of my least favorite teams.
