Warriors/Hawks part two tonight. Even with Korver and Thompson not playing it should be great.

Wish it wasn't at 10:30 PM for me.

Oh well. Hope it's a good game.

Sleep later. Central Time for the win. Can watch both the east and west coast games between 7 and midnight.

Larry Brown thinks Kentucky ccould make the playoffs in the east. The man is going senile. ..

Niko is turning into something. He's been shooting poorly from three and has still been one of the best players in the eastern conference this month. Hoping for a playoff coming out party for him. Really don't get some of the idiot trolls I've read in the admittedly awful Chicago media trying to downplay what's been happening here, saying he's not athletic enough, won't grow much as hes already 24, ect. The adjustments hes made to the NBA game throughout the season have been real. All star by 16-17.

I haven't heard of that, all the buzz around Niko has pretty much been positive. Cautious optimism at worst.

I love Mirotic. Rare that a stashed Euro works out to be the player you expected and more.

Warriors still playing hard even though they've locked things up for the playoffs.

I really hope the Grizzlies play the Clippers in the playoffs and we get to watch Curry embarrass CP3 over and over for 4 or 5 games.

Did you mean Warriors instead of Grizzlies? I wouldn't mind either series. The Clippers are the team everyone hates.

Blake whining about Staples not being a home court advantage tells you all you need to know about the Clips.

Yeah, its a Laker town and that won't change. But guys who end up leading their teams through the playoffs don't say stuff like that. You got out worked by the best team in your conference and a bitter rival and all you have to say after the game is 'its our fans fault'? That team isn't winning shit.

The bulls kinda suck but I'm not sold on cleveland. Id love to see jr smith jack up 17 threes in the playoffs. Blatt has no idea what to do with love, there isnt much frontcourt depth behind mozgov...and you know hes racking up fouls in the playoffs. Bulls played like absolute shit today and cleveland lets them hang around only winning due to unsustainable three point shooting.

10th in the East.

I could watch the guy play defense all day. Incredible.

Good to see Paul George come back yesterday. Even if the Pacers don't make the playoffs it will provide a boost his confidence and moral.

[Lament]

I have to agree.
