Such an ugly game for the Rockets-Spurs so far. Both shooting at abysmal FG%

Disappointing showing by the Raptors
The miami Heat would have given the Cavs a much much better fight than the raptors

Cavs will prob sweep the raptors

Maybe only way to beat lebron is he retires one of these days

Just hate the thought of him making the finals again...

Raptors probably won't even resign Ibaka at the end of the year.

Spurs-Rockets are perfect example of why defense matters in the playoffs.

We all do, but it's just something we're going to have to live with a while longer...before age eventually catches up with him.

From what I am hearing he is in tremendous shape and is doing all the right things to stay there,  ala Brady.  He takes his craft seriously and that is why his team follows suit.  He might be successful into his late thirties with how he is going about his business.

And this is why trading a younger player +/- a pick for a rental is almost always a bad idea.

Agreed. Also , don't forget about the PJ Tucker trade.

As long as they keep it close, the Jazz have a puncher's chance.

I would let Durant live in those isolation and keep his teammates on check. I can live with Durant putting 30+ pts with his teammates sealed.
