Settling in now for the ATL-MIA game. MIA favored by one point tonight.

CP3’s all flustered without his boy Booker.

I'm still mad at Jimmy about those last two possessions in game 3 cuz this series should be over, but besides that he's been GREAT in this series.

That final shot in Game 3 was so bad.

Absolutely horrendous. Just like the one on the second to last possession. It's just so bizarre that on back to back possessions with the game on the line he'd do stuff he basically never does: dribble the clock out above the three point line and then jack up a rushed off balance long jumper. Makes no sense whatsoever. The last one is especially unforgiveable being that it was out of a timeout and surely Spo could come up with something more creative than "Pass it to Jimmy and let him take an absurdly difficult shot at the buzzer."

Are the Suns in danger of losing this series somehow without Booker? Pelicans looked like the better team last night.

I think Boston and Philly advance tonight, especially if the C's get up early and the Nets quit.

The Utah - Dal game should be good, too.

Adios Nets. Good news is Simmons gets 5 more months to heal his back

I'm not sure if Sports Discourse would be able to handle it if a team with Doc Rivers, James Harden, and Joel Embid blew a 3-0 lead.

It would certainly quiet the "Jokic doesn't deserve the MVP" crowd.

This randomly got me to thinking about the Yankees blowing a 3-0 lead in the 04 ALCS. Good times.
