It's funny to hear NBA media expressing concern about Teague's availability for IND considering he left their last game with an ankle "injury".  Heh, we know he'll be just fine.

Dayum, who's the 3-seed in this TOR/MIL series.  cRaptors suck hard and Lowry's chokin like a guy eatin' stale pound cake with no water.

Didn't get much basketball in today.  Only surprising thing was Milwaukee getting a big win on the road.  The Bucks are a good team.  They have a lot of things to like about them.  Once Kidd gets fired they will be really something special.

ISO MF JOE !!!!

GAME WINNER.

 

LOL . . . just took Jamal Crawford all the way down from the 3 point line into the lane and scored on a floater.  That's why Quin and the Jazz wanted him..

True veteran.

I found myself rooting for Joe and Quinn at the end there. Maybe they take the Clippers out.

Maybe?  It would be likely if Gobert didn't go down.  Doc is ass.  Joe never shows emotion but I'm sure he was laughing inside looking at Crawdawg across from him on that last play.

The Bucks really are fun to watch. Will be interesting to see how far they can go since they didn't really put it all together until the last third of the season. No home court disadvantage for them now so feeling their chances are very, very good.

It's almost like Milwaukee turned it around after Parker went down.  Now I don't think they are better without Parker, but they played better after the injury.  Maybe it was a sense of urgency, but probably not because they are the Bucks no matter what.

They really struggled when he first went down but rounded into form as Middleton got healthier.  Parker's game was slashing and dunking, Giannis just started doing that more to account for his loss.  He can do whatever the hell he wants on the court apparently.

Jimmy Butler tho.  The Celtics got absolutely nothing from Johnson and Crowder, but quiet as kept Jimmy's the best player in that series by a considerable margin, fans chanting "MVP" at Thomas be damned.

I don't hate the Rockets like I thought I did.  They play pretty good team ball and defense.  Unlike Russell Westbrook.  The Thunder can't shoot worth a damn either.  The Rockets creaming these mofos into potatoes. 

If I see one more referee bailout on these ridiculous flop attempts from three I'm gonna end it all.

Robin Lopez had 8 offensive rebounds vs the Celtics . 

[Lurker]

Nate McMillan is a dumdum for reinserting Monta into his starting rotation.

Interesting to see the league's response on this.   If someone on the Hawks tried this they call us sore losers and probably suspend whoever it was for the series.    I know how he feels and good for him for speaking up.  That said, i watched some of the game and the Spurs are just a lot, a lot better than the Griz.   Maybe i didn't see enough of it but it didn't look like the refs were swinging anything in the first half.
