Pretty anti-climactic so far, let's see if one of these games tonight can finish under an 18-point victory...
To be fair, Celtics-Wizards was a pretty good game until the 4th quarter.Pretty anti-climactic so far, let's see if one of these games tonight can finish under an 18-point victory...
Yeah, the winner was trailing at the half and it was a single digit game with 9 min to go. Not every good game needs to be a buzzer beater to qualify.To be fair, Celtics-Wizards was a pretty good game until the 4th quarter.
Yup, was also very competitive on both ends. The Wizards poor 3 point shooting (on some decent looks, although credit to the Celtics for limiting volume) masks how close it was.Yeah, the winner was trailing at the half and it was a single digit game with 9 min to go.

I was referring to it being competitive. It def was not a thing of beauty. PP will be having Ish Smith nightmares for years.The Celtics game last night was competitive for most of the time, but I wouldn't call it a good game. I thought it featured a lot of pretty awful basketball. Just my opinion though.
Ha. In fairness, the “Cs lose to Indiana in the play-in” part of Nighthob’s prediction is already out, so hopefully that applies my overall (joke) prediction.Don't put this shit into the universe, man.
Funny part is that I'm basically cheering for the LAL to fail always, so the scenario where they tap out early is awesome...unless it results in the next franchise player.Ha.

25% Lakers lose to GS
10% Lakers lose to Memphis/SA
2.4% #13 seed hits lotto
= 0.06% of the Lakers hitting lotto. And 25% of those odds of landing #1 and Cade. I feel pretty safe saying I’ll eat of loaf of [gross thing x] if it happens.
Looked like another blow-out in game 1, but man you have to love the Spurs and Pops team -- clawed all the way back. Should be an exciting finish.Pretty anti-climactic so far, let's see if one of these games tonight can finish under an 18-point victory...
Let's not jinx this. But id love to see them rd 1 vs the jazzLakers might be going down tonight
They’re playing like it’s preseason. Curry gets hot and this is theirs.Let's not jinx this. But id love to see them rd 1 vs the jazz
If their hands stay quick and the refs don't get whistle happy, they might win this readily.Here goes Curry cheat mode
Yup. We all expect a 2nd gear but I’m not sure it’s there right now. They look awful.Maybe they just had a bad half, but LeBron and Davis don't seem healthy and have been weirdly passive when their team is really struggling to score.
A clinic defensively from Draymond though.
He really is in a class by himself (no disrepect to Dame etc).My goodness Curry.
Warriors weren't getting to the line either. So the adjustment, if any, should be to start calling more at both ends.How many FTs does LeBron shoot in the second half? O/U 9.5?
Is it possible they are okay losing because they'd rather play Utah and are fully confident they can beat Memphis? It seems crazy to risk everything on one game but I'm shocked how flat the Lakers have been. Doesn't feel like a do-or-die game for them.LeBron 1-7
AD 2-12
Schroeder 0-8
This is fascinating. This team has no desire to be playing in this game. They lose and have to play another one. Must see tv.
Blasphemy! I have never used the report post button before but I'm considering it...I don’t really like Steph Curry as a man in the way I admire Dame so it hurts to state this but I like to tell the truth; Curry’s shooting over years of observation might be the most impressive skill I have seen in sports.
it might be better than Pedro pitching. I am a Yankee fan but loved to watch Pedro because I loved his personality and how it translated to the mound. Curry, truthfully, is better than that, he just is, his shooting and how he gets his shot off is ridiculous. It doesn’t seem like it should be possible.
edit: this was before the first half buzzer beater
