We always come out super rusty after a long rest.

Doesn't matter. Get the win tomorrow night.

Get Kyrie, LeBron, Iman, etc. healthy for next Thursday.

How bad do we need to close it out tomorrow?

Mike Breen is that the announcer's name? He just fucked up the ending for all time lol. Kept on yelling Curry's name when Harden was nailing step back 3's lol. What a fucking idiot.

Finals are starting on the same date regardless of how long these series last.

Howard better be suspended. I want Houston to win, but that's bullshit if he isn't. Silver sucks. People might not have liked Stern much, but there's a clear difference between a guy that does his job, and one that doesn't have a clue how to do his.

GS in 5 like I predicted. I said GS get the first 3, and Houston gets 4. They will lose Wednesday.

Hubie Brown at age 81 makes fewer errors than most of the guys announcing the big ESPN/TNT games...

After laughing at the Celtics fouling LeBron inbounding the ball, Hubie is dead to me. He can go finish getting embalmed, for all I care - looks like the job is halfway-done, already.

the nba wanted to move it down by two days if both teams sweep,

NBA must have the worst collection of media and commentators in any sport at any level. Holy mother of christ.

Real bad?

Sounds pretty easy in theory. But there are a lot of bad freethrow shooters in the league. It's especially bad when teams are doing it in the 4th quarter. It's like listening to your favourite song but the track keeps skipping. You don't keep listening do you? No, you throw the damn CD into the garbage and buy a phone that can play your music without skipping. Fuck it, bring back slamball.

There are also a lot of bad defenders in the league. Why don't we make it easier for them? Let's bring back hand checking.

How about this - for those who suck at free throws, let's award them 2 points per made FT so they don't feel left out.

Or, they can choose to let a family member under the age of 10 shoot for them in the 4th quarter only.

lol true, I would love Shaq to give it a go I think he would be epic

lone upside to boycotting non-Cavs NBA basketball for 4 years was avoiding ESPN and those idiots.

I love Charles Barkley, but holy hell every one else is pretty bad.

I can't imagine having Josh Smith on my team. Even when he is shooting the lights out, he turns it over 6 times in relatively limited minutes and has to be yanked because he shoots 25% from the line.

It must be like multiplying Dion Waiters by Larry Hughes. I get frustrated watching him and I don't even care about Houston.
