Oh man, I wasn't even thinking that they don't have either Gordon or Ariza. That's crazy. A GS/Houston matchup will be VERY interesting, and it could really, really help out the East champion by finally catching GS after actually getting challenged in a series.

Houston is now going to be 22-1 with all three of Paul-Harden-Capela in the lineup.

If they get completely healthy I think they can absolutely give GSW a run for their money.

I don't ever remember a home team, especially of this caliber, receiving boos this much, certainly not the Celtics either.

I really dare anyone to say Cleveland, as constituted, are the same ol cavs that will run through the east. This is a joke. They can not compete with the good teams Lebron or not and we have a  nearly half a season worth of data to prove it

Houston definitely a threat, but don't count out a Pop-coached Spurs team especially if Kawhi and Gay come back healthy. They did give GSW fits and almost took Game 1 before Kawhi went down.

Warriors are still favorites but (healthy) Spurs and Rockets are legitimate threats this year.

It is proven that D'Antoni teams don't make it that far in the playoffs. The furthest one went was back when Steve Nash was still in Phoenix. And Chris Paul have some sort of curse or something with his 2nd-round luck. I'll believe it when I see it.

There were definitely some loud boos during that ugly 2013 regular season.

Obviously our fans have shown that even when we get run off the floor in the playoffs we'll still cheer our team on, though.

I switched over to Jazz-Spurs a while ago.

I love me some Joe Ingles.

Wonder if Lebron is thinking in the back of his very small mind: "Ya know, King, maybe we should have treated Kyrie Irving with a lot more respect and maturity than we did!"
