Roland17:
Since his return to the starting line up Rondo has been exceptional leading Bulls. Playing more aggressive on offense, by facilitating and controling the pace of the game, with a defense reminiscent of his prime years with the Celtics.

A40, biko give my padi Rondo small props for his recent showing....The Bulls may as well stick to playing on TNT, as the impressive record continues.

If you are a Cavs fan, you should be genuinely troubled...
Minister Louis Farrakhan would start knacking white women before I give Rondo any props. He is a huge part of why my Mavs are sucking badly while your Celts benefitted from the trade. Let him go fuq himself. Lol

San Antonio Spurs getting Killed by Russell and the OKC gang. I have to celebrate OKC today as I need distance between us and SAS in terms of seeding. Hate that Russell is balling out of control though.
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 1:58am On Apr 01, 2017
Boston losing and Cavs winning. Please Boston don't do this to me.
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 2:56am On Apr 01, 2017
The Cavs are blowing out a helpless Philly who have nothing atstake in this game.
Don't coman tell me the Cavs are now in playoffs mode oooo
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 2:56am On Apr 01, 2017
Spurs cut down a 20 point OKC lead to 6.

Isaiah Thomas becoming my new MVP. Celts up by 1. 35 secs to go. Hope they win it now.

Baba this is just Q3 na and we have seen bigger Q4 comebacks.
But important thing to note is your appreciation of his balling activities.
Methinks if Westbrook had a better supporting cast, he would have a better head-to-head against the big boys.

That was closeee!!!!!!!.

Jesus! Who do I blame?

Hmmmmph.

Spurs perform a miracle and beat OKC 99-95.

NOW WE HAVE TO BEAT HOUSTON. Pressure we didn't need.

Well, if he can let a better cast express themselves more he would have done better today. No facilitator except him and nobody else could score today. His 4th quarter TO was significant but we have to let it slide. He has tried though. Perhaps, if his team finishes 5th he should share the trophy with Harden but if Celtics somehow finish top seeds in the East, I think Isaiah should win it.

Sore clutch time loss, another reason why Pop is the best manager out there. Let's not mention it here but hey, that's the 39th TD with 7 games left? Phew!
Stay woke, we go watch your game together.
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 3:39am On Apr 01, 2017
I think it's Westbrook. That's what I really think," Robertson told Katz of his MVP pick. "Because years ago it was tough to win an MVP because it was based on winning championships -- and [Bill] Russell with the Celtics. They dominated. But one year, Wilt [Chamberlain] averaged 50 points a game and 29 rebounds and me a triple-double, but Bill [Russell] won because his team advanced and we did not.

"It's changed now. A lot of people understand what an MVP means. They understand basketball better than they did years ago."........
Big O himself.
One man's point of view maybe.

Not just one man, but one saltier-than-the-Atlantic-ocean man indirectly telling us he should have won the MVP title that year.

He is lucky I am not asking who he is like someone else would have done.

I think at this point it's a straight fight between Harden and Westbrook.
Cavs would finish top, you just know they(NBA) somehow would contrive to get them top.

He is going to average a triple double this season. The maths says he needs to average 3 assists and 3 rebounds per game and his numbers will still average at a triple double. The only record he wants to chase and break now is Oscar's.
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 3:52am On Apr 01, 2017
Really sloppy start from GSW. Sloppy shooting and almost sloppy defending especially at the 3 point line. I hope they shake out of it soon. Houston can't go on a 13-2 run at the Oracle.

Breaking Oscar's record is a given, i think he would notch 43 TDs.
The media would go into a frenzy and that may just tilt the MVP his way.
Make I watch ballers, this game is all about Harden. He needs to make a statement in this game.

He can make his statement and still lose. My team needs to shake out of this sloppiness. Routine passes are not hitting their targets and some of it is unforced.

Tah! Dey there, dey dream grin
You were the best team in the regular season last year and you were almost sent out in the conference finals by OKC. This year, I see the spurs/rockets dragging you to a 7-game series.
And you know in a 7-game series, anything can happen.
lol.can you say the same thing now?
Re: The NBA Begins by SIRcumalot: 4:21am On Apr 01, 2017
I feel like the only reason why harden isn't resting that hand Is because Russ campaign for MVP is gaining momentum again.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 4:22am On Apr 01, 2017
The Rockets are guarding the 3 point line, forcing the Warriors to contested jumpers, while the Warriors are gifting the Rockets the 3 points. More like daring them to make the 3s, and guess what? the are knocking them down.
Re: The NBA Begins by popizaino(m): 4:23am On Apr 01, 2017
Don't really know what us wrong with OKC and defending a lead,too scrappy with their defence.
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 4:32am On Apr 01, 2017
NBA refs. Una well done.

Still sloppy from the team. Klay needs to get in his rhythm. Winner will be decided in the 3rd quarter most likely.
Re: The NBA Begins by SIRcumalot: 4:41am On Apr 01, 2017
Draymond can't stop screaming and-1 on every layup attempt.
And Javale mcgee has played so well everytime I watch a warriors game.
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 4:41am On Apr 01, 2017
SmooshCHN where art thou? Refs have started again even though Houston are killing on the boards, the refs give them phantom and sometimes cheap fouls. On the other hand, Draymond is getting smudged with no foul calls or and 1s (when he makes them).

We are getting our Rythm back. Javale, Klay and Iggy doing big things. We are blowing them out 3rd quarter.
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 5:00am On Apr 01, 2017
I am beginning to hate James Harden and his flops to con refs. Good thing Steph is resting his arms for the latter part of 3Q when he would take over. Klay is cooking. 4 pt game.

Please someone should stop daring Patrick Beverly to shoot those 3s he is making them.
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 5:07am On Apr 01, 2017
JAVALE MCGEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!What a night
Re: The NBA Begins by Roland17(m): 5:24am On Apr 01, 2017
My goodness!!!!!!!!I just witnessed one of the greatest upsets in sports history. Mississippi state just defeated the UCONN huskies in overtime, stopping the 111 consecutive victory recorded by Geno Auriemma.

This is the opportunity Dawn Staley and gamecocks have been waiting for, as much as Mississippi state look good, the gamecocks would win the title game and deservedly so.

Great game.
Re: The NBA Begins by Eruditor: 5:27am On Apr 01, 2017
Going to bed. We didn't blow them out 3Q but atleast we levelled the game. Expecting Houston to get tired (following back to back) in the 4th Q so I hope we completely snuff out their 3 point game as it has kept them in this.

GSW we do this.
Re: The NBA Begins by Nobody: 6:08am On Apr 01, 2017
I think Harden needs to sit out a couple of games and recharge for the playoffs. He is tanking already.
3rd spot is all but guaranteed already and his jammed wrist can only get worse.

Re: The NBA Begins by SmooshCHN: 6:28am On Apr 01, 2017
I actually thought we'd drop of of the last 3 games but I'm tired of having to announce we won cheesy
One person that makes me so happy is Goatgodala cheesy that Bro is special.. Shaun Livingston needs to activate himself too. How can fans not love the Warriors? This surprises me everyday. We literally played two opponents at once GSW vs Rockets and referees.

To be honest the Celtics are still unpredictable. If anyone would give Cavs trouble it should be Celtics or Wizards but
