Eerily similar of the OKC series last year. Spurs just look a step slow.

Lol the Bulls management just stated that they're going to keep Hoiberg on as coach, most likely retaining Rondo, too. That organization is truly a mess that needs a reshuffling from top to bottom. I wonder what that means for the chances of a Butler trade this offseason.

Bulls fans on Twitter are beating their heads against the wall after this news lol

Actually, apparently Pax was pretty condescending of Butler's style of play and fit on the team. I don't know how they keep him this summer.

TP for that update.

Lol that's messed up if they keep Rondo, but trade Butler (which also likely means Wade leaves unless he only cares about the $$$, nothing else at all).

I'm not too fond of trading for Butler now especially if the pick lands 1 or 2. If it's outside that, I'd consider it as long as no other major pieces leave in the trade (Brown and 2018 bkn pick). That being said, is Butler really *that* much of an upgrade from Bradley? He had some good games in the previous series but Butler doesn't thread the needle for us as much as a Paul George would.

However, contract situations favor Butler more than the expiring Paul George too, so..

UPDATE: Looks like this could go the Chris Sale and White Sox route. They decide to rebuild and take a "Lesser offer" from a team like Minnesota, or Philadelphia, or LAL, or even Boston maybe? But now they are not revealing too much:

Houston's only chance now is to bench Harden and somehow try to sneak K-Mart on the active roster

Rockets deserve to lose if they can't best the spurs that are without some of their best players

Twisted ankle. He hurt it late in game 5.

That sucks. I hope he recovers well for the GS series.

Is Harden blowing his chance at the MVP award tonight?
