Vince Carter came up clutch. You don't hear that every day.

I mean he just missed a 3 so apparently there is still some human element left in his game. But I've never seen anything like this kid. dribble around a pick and pull up from 3 fading left with Blake Griffin putting a hand up in your face. THERE IS NO REASON FOR YOU TO EVEN TAKE THAT SHOT!Yeah, I totally get why people hate on Curry's game, but he's magic. Definitely the best off-the-dribble jump shooter in the league today.

Goodness graciousness. Kidd has to be one of the dumbest coaches of all time. It's only been 84 games (minus his early suspension) but it's safe to put him in that category already. After a full season of managing minutes to an almost ridiculous level, what does he do in the playoffs? The same thing! The exact same thing! I got to hand it to him. He's a trailblazer. While dumbos like Popovich and Phil Jackson go full bore in the playoffs, he doles out minutes like it's the regular season.I was actually excited to see KG get away from Doc for the simple reason that most coaches don't like to sub out core starters after 4 minutes of playing time. Then Kidd AND Lawrence Frank had to be hired, the former who got to see Dirk's sub patterns firsthand (which still are nothing like what KG's gone through) and the latter who witnessed how Doc treated KG. KG was coming off a great season averaging around 29 minutes and then a great postseason averaging 36 minutes. So what does Kidd do? Play him 20 minutes and almost never longer than 5 minutes at a time. I'm inclined to believe that KG's back spasms had something to do with his rest pattern as well, more than his age. How is warming up, running, jumping and crouching for around 5 minutes of actual time and then sitting for 30 before running, jumping and crouching for 5 minutes good for the body of a 37 year old? KG has played most of his minutes ice cold off the bench.

If I was the coach, I'd run Pierce and Garnett to the ground IN THE PLAYOFFS, along with their three other all-star players in that lineup.
