Well Phil

the Celtics are indeed for real and played great albeit from outside the arc

Boston goes buzzer to buzzer to win 109-86

Gotta ”believe” Phil

Yes Steve. They played with confidence and the shots went in. Controlled Giannis a bit with some defensive adjustments. Good game. Still have to win some more.

Memphis finished on a 13-4 run and beat the Warriors 106-101

Ja Morant was the entire game as he scores 47! points

Whatta guy. His strides are very long he easily leaves his defender behind.

Didn't see the game, did you guys feel the Grizz were dirty or just physical?

I only saw the Brooks hit on Gary Payton and I feel it was indeed a flagrant. He had no chance at the ball and hit the head of Payton who also injured his elbow in the process. Maybe too physical for me but not seen enough plays of the Grizz to call them dirty.

I really thought that when the Sixers acquired Harden they would be serious contenders in the East with a chance at winning the championship but since Embiid's injury Harden has failed to step up. Harden, sadly has become a journeyman with only flashes of greatness of his former self. Seems the OKC big trio is all but done....

Westbrook almost certainly is gone from the Lakers and is over the hill

Harden, when partnered with KD and Kyrie I thought the Nets were destined to win it all until they tank with Kd's injury and Harden is trade to the Sixers

KD's biggest career changing blunder IMO was his leaving the GSW to create a new duo with Kyrie. What a mistake that was. I seriously doubt KD will win another ring and Harden and Westbrook are to suffer the same fate..

With or without Joel Embiid, James Harden remains under the spotlight | NBA.com

James Harden is not playing like the Kia MVP-winning player he once was. If he can't, can he adapt?

I thought the Hornets this year showed signs of greatness and are developing a very good young team So what is MJ thinking ...I almost choked on my breakfast cereal as I read it. He knows only one way to coach.....run and gun and drive his players into the ground

It was good to see the Sixers with Embiid get back into the series with a convincing win over the Heat. So similarly Luka and the Mavs also pulled off a strong win against the mighty Suns

All of the series are terrific to watch. I hated the season for obvious reasons but the playoffs are the best I have watched in years.

The best series so far IMO have been Memphis-Wolves and now Memphis-GSW

I love the GSW but you cannot ignore the greatness in Ja Morant who will be the leagues next super star

Bitter loss by the Celts today as their tying shot was a microsecond too late at the buzzer to tie the game.

Bucks up 2-1

They had to play catch up. Terrible shooting by Tatum. He has to be more consistent. Must win game next.

GSW overcome an early Memphis Jess and shot the lights out as they destroyed the Grizz and take a 2-1 lead

final 142-112

Curry with 39 points.
GSW shoot 63%
Morant departs before game end with a knee injury. Hope he’s ok as he played another great game including making a 3 to end the first half as he shot from behind the half court line

Continuous non stop great games

Mavs suddenly with Luka back have evened the series today at 2-2,

sadly Ja Morant is out for game 4 which won’t bode well for the Grizz

 

[steve williams]

Is this great or what....Sixers beat the Heat to tie the series at 2-2

These conference semifinals are becoming epic

I was just saying Harden is a shade of himself and he came up big with those long 3s that he's so used to making. Great series indeed!
