Anthony Davis has never lead a team to higher than the 6th seed. Brooklyn would not become the East favorites because of him unless every star ditched every other top East team. Anthony Davis might be the greatest stat accumulator in NBA history, but if his greatness were transcendent, NOLA...

They do match up well. And their bench is better. Star power wins practically 100% of the time, though.

I'd call it dreaming to think Toronto can win it all, but this team is definitely special. Who do you put Kawhi on? Steph or Klay?

Who saw 3 straight from Toronto coming? Wow

What I mean is--did he make a difference or was it all Kawhi?

If Toronto wins this series, how does everyone feel about the Nick Nurse hire?

On that note, it's largely forgotten about because his teammates fucked up and they lost, but Lebron's game 1 last year was the best individual Finals performance I've ever seen. I don't know about the rest of you. Cleveland might have made it interesting last year had they pulled off game 1

Dear God, please make Durant leave. For the good of basketball, make him leave. For the good of the watchability of the Warriors, make him leave. They're so much more fun to watch without him. Klay gets his. Draymond is 3 times the player without him Make. Him. Leave.

Pretty disappointed in Toronto tonight. Way to just fold.

I don't know if Denver would have posed more of a challenge, but Portland needs to take the next 2 at home or there was literally no point for them to win the prior series. If you lose 4-0 or 4-1 in a Conference Finals series, can you even say you played in it? The Blazers might be completely...

Hey, at least when I call out bad calls now, they're factually bad calls. That hand check they called on Lowry was absurd. And then Ibaka got all ball. Again, ridiculous. Unacceptable with less than 2 minutes in a win or go home game. Those officials are lucky Leonard made that shot.

Holy shit the last 2 fouls called on Toronto are bullshit, and in between those two fouls, Embiid ran over Lowry on the other end. Ridiculous.

I don't find Houston's roster all that great around Harden and Paul. Paul, for one, is old now. Capela is too limited offensively. Eric Gordon is either spectacular or invisible. PJ Tucker is a damn bulldog (my favorite player on the team) but his 3 ball is less consistent than Ariza's. The...

Houston should have blown that game open early. Instead, they walked in like a win was a given. Look what happens. If every player had the heart displayed by PJ Tucker and Eric Gordon every night, that'd make a difference

This Houston team is not the second best team in the league. Milwaukee, Toronto, and Philly are all better. Denver might be too.

Ben Simmons is not a special talent until he's an offensive threat

Scott Foster reffing the Rockets/Warriors game tonight. SMH. The NBA is ridiculous. League wide, the players and coaches can't stand the guy. Get him off the floor.

LolMilwaukee

To be clear--I do NOT like rewarding players for selling the landing space foul like Paul and Harden do, but if the defender actually comes into the shooter's landing space, it is STILL a foul even if the shooter sold it. Houston deserves an apology from the league for all these missed calls...

Chuck seems to believe this Blazers team is Finals worthy. He's a great analyst, but sometimes he's just flat out wrong lol
