Arena The NBA Thread

Ooof, forget I said anything about the Raptors scrappy underdog comeback unless they literally do one of the best scrappy underdog comebacks ever starting now.

 

Is Richard Jefferson 50? He Seems like he got in the league in the Early 90's to me.

 

lol, without looking it up, I think he came into the league in either 2000 or 2001. I was surprised he was still playing too. He was pretty good on the Nets as I recall.

 

I know there's a lot of routs in NBA playoff history if you look at the totality of all games ever played, but it sure seems like there are some routs this year, and a lot of them.

 

20 playoff games this year have been won by >20 points, and 8 by >30. That game was the equal-biggest margin (38 points, same as Thunder/Mavericks.)

 

I'm glad I didn't miss anything by not watching last night game between the Cavs and Raptors. It seems like the game was over right after tip off.

Let's see if the North will come back for Game 6.

 

wow. livingston getting elbowed in the face and called for the foul. again. wonder if that's going to happen again.

 

Wow Draymond kicking and not called for the foul. Again. Wonder if that's going to happen again for the 900th time.

 

because kicking out and hitting nothing is totally the same as getting elbowed in the head. totally.

 

Surprised the Warriors didn't come out all mad and blow them out. That game could've been won by OKC if they'd taken care of the ball a bit better.

Westbrook didn't have that great a game, so I'm hoping he comes out mad as hell next game and they send these arrogant pricks back home for the summer.

 

Yeah, I watched the end of last night's game and OKC was definitely missing shots (and not driving for 2 when they should have been), but the refs were 100% not helping either...

 

Let's hope Kevin Love's passport issues get fixed so he can show up in game six.

 

It would be funny if the entire Cavs starting line was detained at customs in the Toronto airport.

 

ah. missed that. i wasn't watching that closely, was doing something with my wife at the same time. yes, those should have been called as well then. not that that really excuses the livingston thing. all three should have been.

the refs weren't calling much of anything all game on either side, going by the casters. at least of that particular variety. then it was all "playoff ref" in the fourth where they might as well swallow their whistles because they don't use them. -_- i did at least hear the whole thing.

god that is so stupid. you shouldn't call the game differently in the playoffs, no matter the sport. treat it the same as you do all year. always hated that.

 

I see we've started with the elbows to the face early...

 

Cavs up by 18. I'm happy. Now just get to the finals with a healthy team.

 

Mazel tov, Inty, Lloyd, and xb.

 

Mad respect to the Toronto fans. That was a way to send off your team.

Rest up, get ready Cavs.

All in.

 

Hell of a season for the Raps. Congrats to the Cavs.

 

Four more

 

FOUR. MORE.

 

Also MO WILLIAMS IS GOING TO THE FINALS WITH LEBRON JAMES AND THE CAVS

Ugh, no bueno...
