It's been a rollercoaster since this happened lmao. For a while it looked like it was gonna age horribly, but Harden haters are eating good right now:

My head keeps saying Mavs over Thunder due to the experience edge but Shai and company just keep clobbering teams so who knows.

Trying to temper my enthusiasm/hopefulness on Porzingis. Looks pretty good at practice round and sounds upbeat.

Denver are gonna get eliminated by minnesota and it's going to be a sweep. Unfortunately that means Celtics win It all. Congrats celtics

Brain knew. Harden is who he is and that's never going to change. There's too many receipts

Will be interesting to see if Denver messes around like they did with the Lakers or go into it with more intensity. I'll take Min for game 1, but feel the Nuggets win the series


Mavs in 6

I'm thinking Ant dunks on Jokic in the first quarter, set the tone.

Don't feel bad for the Cavs. They dodged the third seed to get an easier matchup only to get taken to 7 by the Magic.

if Russ had any semblance of BBIQ and self awareness he'd still have a long career ahead of him as a significant contributor. He's still got a good bit of his athleticism and and is relatively healthy compared to other dudes with his level of mileage.

After the fall and free throws he went back on defense when there was a foul whistle. He went for his shoulder right after reaching out for the ball and I wonder if that made it worse.

Mavs play at a faster pace than OKC this year. 6th v. 8th.

Mavs in 6. Lively and Gafford to dominate.

The issue for Dallas isn't the pace they play at. It's that OKC is better than them playing fast. They need to find an advantage somehow and I think trying to make the series about half court execution benefits them more then a track meet.

This still isn't that fair imo... harden was brought in to be the third option and he stepped up pretty well until he ran out of gas

I still really want to see how a full clippers team would do but it looks like Kawhi's knees are never going to be ready for the playoffs

I should really just put like 5 units on Denver Ml (-185). It's chalky but they're obviously winning tonight. Game 1 is way too important for a letdown. I'm expecting a monstrous Jokic game.

Feels good to be watching without a horse in the rare though timberwolves are my local team so eh I guess that counts ?
