I would put Pop ahead of Phil Jackson, hard to compare to Red Auerbach because of the different eras and me never being able to see those teams play.

Pop winning never is robbing of someone else. Either could've won.

Great comeback in the 3rd by the Bulls. Looking like a pwning of the Wiz in the 4th.

Glad to see the Wiz take it. They should be able to close this series out at home either in game 4 or game 6.

SA with a ridiculous comeback in game 1 and getting blown out again in game 2. What the heck?

Never underestimate Rick Carlisle especially come playoff time, they always seem to be a tough out.

LaMarcus Aldridge is so good, but McHale is a dumbshit for guarding him with a 6'8 dude and NOT doubling

Harden 14/47 shooting through 2 games, but he does enough on the other end of the court that you can live with it.

Home teams have 7 wins (Miami has 2) and away teams have 9 wins so far.

The three games tonight, IMO, are the most entertaining.

I'm a huge harden fan, but he has been playing like trash this whole series.

OKC just doesn't have the look of a championship team.

Yeah but teams have tendencies, and they just don't do the little things well. They also play too much one on one and their shot selection is poor for the most part including Durant and Westbrook. They can't seem to get stops when they need to either.

Another observation, people bash the Eastern Conference but those teams play actual defense. Most of the teams in the West aside from Memphis and SA are average to poor defensive teams. It's like those conferences are playing two different styles of basketball basically.

Hoe does Durant get away with that carry all the time? Seems pretty obvious.

Took 3 steps in between dribbles, took 6 total steps with only one bounce of the basketball. That was very clearly a carry, lol.

Did Memphis just go 6 minutes without scoring a point?

That was not a foul, Westbrook just flailed and got the call
