Red Mosquito

So, theoretically I'm rooting for the Warriors to win it all this year. They're one of the few teams (or teams with a player/players) I don't actively dislike and yet for the second straight series I've found myself rooting for the underdog against them. No idea what's happening there. I realized it was happening again when Z Bo decided to get fouled instead of make an uncontested layup/dunk and I was mad at him for not getting the two sure points.

Kudos to the Grizzlies, they outplayed the Warriors last night. I wasn't expecting Conley to play and be so effective. That being said, the Warriors missed a ton of shots they usually make and Green's early foul trouble led a very rusty David Lee getting too many minutes.

I get what you mean about cheering for the underdogs. I wish every series went at least 6 or 7 games just to heighten the intensity.

FIRST TEAM ALL DEFENSE

Tony Allen is a gang banging piece of shit but im extremely entertained by him on the court.

I severely underestimated his ability to completely shut down Klay. Klay needs to be more aggressive and focused on making precise cuts and keeping the ball moving.

They just missed a lot of shots. I dont think they need to make crazy adjustments. its unlikely they are that cold three more games this series.

I agree. The team and Klay in particular just needs to play with more focus. They had several lazy passes into the interior that were knocked away or stolen.

OOOOOOHH!!!! YOU GOT ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You have no killer instinct

4/5 told me he chants "MVP" whenever he reads a new post of yours.

I bet kyrie gets a few tonight.

Gets a few what? He got burned on about 5 or 6 back cuts the other night. He's pretty terrible at defending sometimes.

Mvp chants....obviously

Apparently iman shumpert is a hall of famer now...

Lebron could play like this all the time if he wanted to.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Bulls are 3-1 against LBJ in game 1s, and (barring a monumental comeback) will be 1-12 in games 2-5.

This turd-burglar of a performance shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

This is so bulls, but that history doesnt really have anything to do with this series. The miami super friends had wade and bosh. This cavs team is two guys and spare parts...

Did Shaq almost just die?

What happened? I've been curled up in a ball weeping since the Bulls game.

Shaq went to get up out of his chair and fell off the little podium they've got. I couldn't tell if it was staged or not.

Looks staged to me........just like the whole 'run through the tape' last year. I like Inside the NBA but the funny stuff is scripted a lot of the time.
