History has been made.

First team to blow a series lead in five straight years.

Would have been a great running back, the way he carries the ball. Maybe it's a Thai massage.

Both the Celtics and Rockets in particular are entertaining to watch, as has Leonard going full Terminator mode for the Spurs, but still have yet to see much signs that it won't be Cavs vs. Warriors - Round 3. But has been some fun games in the meantime while we seem to be predictably moving towards that final matchup.

Yep, cavs won't lose on the way to the finals, and the warriors won't lose. I don't think it's possible for the spurs to beat them, and the rockets would have to shoot 40%+ every game from 3 to have a chance.

Seems that way but a key injury can always change that. I'm a Celtics fan so I want them to keep winning but another GSW - Cavs finals would be fun to watch in my opinion.

Yeah, Kawhi is awesome but it doesn't seem like the Spurs have enough firepower besides him to hang with the Warriors.

And I read a quote about the potential Rockets vs. Warriors matchup that I think hit the mark. Houston's problem would be that they would be trying to fight fire with fire, with the Rockets using a hand-held flame thrower while the Warriors would be dropping napalm bombs.

The NBA needs to address offensive enagagement being called as a foul in the offseason. Players jumping into defenders and raising their arms into defenders while driving the lane. Needs to change.

They've talked about it for years. Yet it seems like it is getting called at a higher rate than ever.

Harden got ~30 FTs against OKC for things like this. I know of at least two against the Spurs for 6FTs.

I strongly, strongly dislike the Spurs and have my entire life, but I gotta pour one out for TP. Made me so mad watching him, but he influenced my game as a kid growing up and in high school and proved to me that us undersized (6'1" lol) guys can make it if we work and are crafty.

The type of injury he has is going to make it near impossible for him to play at any competitive level for a long time, and he's in the twilight of his career. He had a hell of a career and is a HOF for his play in the league, success, and contributions to basketball in Europe.

The Warriors-Jazz game is entertaining. It's getting chippy. Draymond is a joke.

And Thompson is 1-9 and 0-4 from three. And they are still up 3.

Cavs and Warriors now both 7-0 in playoffs and looking to complete a sweep of first two rounds.. I'm maybe leaning toward Cavs more likely to lose a playoff game first, because if they face the Celtics in the Eastern Finals, the first two games are in Boston. While GSW will have their first two games in WCF at home.

What do ya'll think about the question posed by the YouTube link above. Can both the Warriors and Cavs sweep their way to the NBA Finals?

I am in agreement with the YouTube blogger. While it looks like a pretty decent chance now that both Cavs and Warriors will complete sweeps of Toronto and Jazz respectively, going 8-0 in first two rounds, and most likely will meet in NBA Finals as most have expected all year....I have a pretty difficult time seeing the Cavs sweeping Boston or the Warriors sweeping Spurs/Rockets. Maybe one or both of them will win those series 4-1...but not buying into a sweep.

It seems inevitable. The warriors have too many superstars right now.

The East is Lebron's plaything.
