Pascal Siakam doubtful with a right calf contusion.

There goes the Raptors' season. Can't see them winning Game 4 in Philadelphia now.

I'll be surprised if he doesn't play but it would be karma for tripping Embiid.

I don't think they were going to win the game anyway, but maybe they will pull together and Lowry will actually step up for once.

Go GSW. Hoping they sweep HOU!

Actually, I hate Embiid and his endless showboating and fake tough guy personality so I didn't mind Siakam tripping him. Although it's what they say, what goes around comes around.

Yeah lol, cry me a river on that one. Karma for Embiid not getting tossed like he should have against BKN

WOW crazy 4th quarter!!

Rockets-Warriors Game 3 heading to OT.

Man if Golden State wins tonight to go up 3-0, this series is over and frankly the rest of this league and remaining playoff teams are all screwed.

[jpotter33]

Lol Warriors choke it down the stretch.

[CelticsElite]

Rockets pulled out the win. Haha lets see them take care of business

Shaqtin moment by Curry to end the game, and then down 5 with 20 seconds left the Warriors just give up?  You have Durant, Curry, Klay?  If anybody can knock down a couple of threes it's them.

Missed layup and then somehow a bricked dunk from Curry. Amazing

Then the odd premature concession.

One thing I find a little funny (and strange too), is that the Nuggets played a Game 7 and their series with the Blazers started after ours. Note the Bucks and Celtics swept in the first round and had like a week off. Yet, the Nuggets-Blazers are playing Game 4 tonight while our Game 4 is tomorrow night. Lol what is this scheduling...

among other things scheduling is based on other events at the home team's stadium.  such as the bruins and avalanche who are both playing in the playoffs

a couple of major pet peeve calls in recent games:

1.  the foul on Austin Rivers against Durant on his OT three pointer (think it was OT).  Did the ref actually see contact on Durant's elbow?  Because on replay I could not see contact.  So was the ref guessing?  Cardinal officiating sin = guessing.  REFS:  please see contact clearly, see Durant' elbow change location for example, hear a slap, something...but DON'T FREAKING GUESS!!!

2. the foul on Chris Paul in OT when he was boxing out for a rebound.  What?  You call that in overtime?  Wasn't even a foul!  Only a whistle happy jerk would call that, especially at that time in the game. 

I'm not suggesting a bias towards Warriors in game 3.  Just terrible calls I saw in OT.  Shameful really.
