New Album & The Beginning of Basketball Season

I really want to see the battle of the bowling balls. Bummer that NY and Cleveland are in different brackets. Brunson vs Mitchell would be EPIC.

It could happen...

Warriors win last night and will likely do to Houston what the Wolves are going to do to the Lakers

Warriors are a totally different team since the trade for Butler

what a lack luster game tonight at MSG. Both team paying like it doesnt matter. So ,any missed shots and too many fouls. 'I really believe the Kncks will win this series but watching a replay of the last game theater is no quesrtion that the refs missed the call on the final play of the game where Josh hart committed the foul which would have put Hardaway at the line ad the Pistons would have won to even the series, Pistons also could have won game one. So at the half this is anyone's game as too many missed shots KAT is one heck of a player in the clutch but Brunson is way off tonight

at the half Knicks lead 50-49

Cunningham has done little as has Brunson

Knicks win puts them unlikely against the Celtics where almost certainly I bet they will be done

Knicks are a good team but have left too many uncertainties with me as to whether they can get beyond the Celtics

 

[JackD201]

My Pacers go through!!!!!!

What will Giannis do now?

 

[Steve Williams]

Ive heard Giannis is coming west. Rumors were Mavericks

 

[Steve Williams]

At MSG the Knicks have home court and the chance to close out the Pistons. They had zero killer instinct to take the series. Brunson was a non factor. KAT seemed to always make the clutch 3's

The pesty Pistons were far from great as well but nonetheless they were better at the end with some closing clutch baskets and stave off a final Knicks attack and win the game in spite of the 3 by Anunoby with 5 seconds in the game to close within one

Final Pistons 106-103

Series goes back to Detroit for game 6

Great coaching by Bickerstaff in the final minute of play

The Knicks with the series to win played terrible and lacked the killer instinct whereas Detroit played their hearts out

 

[Steve Williams]

It’s good to see The Scowl ( Westbrook) finally play for a team where he makes an impression. He has been a journeyman since leaving OKC. He was a bust with the Lakers and Clippers , Rockets and Wizards and Jazz but does make an impression playing for the Nuggs

At the half
Denver leads the Clipps 67-59

 

[Steve Williams]

when Murray and Jokic are on their game they are unbeatable. Probably the best tandem in the league. Last night was no exception as the Nuggs took apart a half decent Clippers team and hold a 3-2 lead in the series

Except Murray this year is not in his A game at all (with rare exceptions like last night)...with that in mind I don't see them going far (if they overcome Clippers at all)

Totally agree. Last night he WAS on his game..did you see the 3 point shot at the half buzzer which was too late

 

[Golum]

Yep, seen it...lets see what happens next game...

The Nuggs are pretty much the same team as when they won their titles but they are a bit older. Nonetheless I find Jokic and Murray exciting players to watch . Jokic is like a 7 foot pudge ball lumbering down the court who can play all 5 positions. Murray has a deadly outside shot when he's on. That 3 pointer at the buzzer at half time yesterday was a good demonstration of that. IMO there just isnt a better tandem than those 2 in the league now. I believe they will advance to the next round but I still feel the West goes to either the Thunder or the Wolves...I must admit that Steph and Butler have also made the GSW a so much better team

The East for me is a tougher call. The Celtics are always tough but the Cavs to me are a well rounded younger team like OKC The Pacers are stronger but not quite there yet (although they did take out the Bucks). I don't see the Knicks even in the EC final

 

[Steve Williams]

Houston rallies to see a game 6. However they had a 31 point lead and coasted the rest of the waywhizle the Warriors closed it to within 13. All games semmto be getting really testy with a few fists thrown tonight and quickly stopped

Fina 131-116 Rockets

 

[Steve Williams]

Lakers have no answer to a much better Wolves team as they trail by 10 at the half

59-49

Doncic is being double and triple teamed and clobbered on each possession

 

[Steve Williams]

Even an aging Gobert is beating up on the Lakers.Doncic clobbered in the back on a layup and looks like he is badly hurt

Lakers are 0-16 when they are trailing by 10 or more at the half in playoff games. Looks as if the Lakers are going fishing unless they figure out this Wolves team

 

[Steve Williams]

believe it or not Lakers take the lead at 78-77 with 2 1/2 minutes left in the 3rd

 

[Steve Williams]

start of the 4th period lakers led 80-79

Gobert with 24 points so far. He has been huge in this game

 

[Steve Williams]

This now is a game of hop scotch with each possession resulting in a lead change

Gobert without question is winning this game for the Wolves at both ends of the floor 91-88 Wolves on a slam dunk by Gobert with 5:36 in the game

Even if Lakers win I see no way for them to win this series. Wolves are just too good

I thought when they traded KAT they would give up a huge part of their team nut Randle has been a great asset

 

[Steve Williams]

this game is one of the most physical ive seen as each rebound a player ends up on the floor

McDaniels has fouled out as well as Finney-Smith
