NBA: ***Official 2017-2018 Playoffs Thread***

[Doc]

The Rockets aren’t even playing hard.

Houston is nuts right now

 

[Doc]

Well well well. This is interesting.

Basketballing is easy when you hit 8/12 3s.

Houston’s offense is walking the ball up the court and shooting a 3.

Is Harden capable of landing on his feet after shooting? You'd think a dump truck was hitting him every time.

 

[CyArob]

Not sure Gordon & Tucker can keep this up

 

[HFCS]

Not sure Houston could be playing much better without CP3 on the road against reigning champs facing elimination. Not boding well for Warriors in Game 7 even if they pull it out tonight.

At least they gave one of the same calls to GSW on the other end but yeah...it's truly annoying as F even though I'm kind of pulling for Houston.

Even more frustrating it seems they're "letting them play" on plays at the rim on both sides.

 

[HFCS]

LeBron won't be in Cleveland next year and I don't blame him. Hope he goes to the Rockets.

There's a weird thing about the NBA where it's kind of like a lid on the basket for franchises getting championships. A lot of franchises have zero and a lot of franchises have multiples. LeBron may have turned Cleveland into quite the rarity with one.

Looks like Houston may have a chance to add to their total. For some reason the Texas teams seem to be able to get the ring.

They're finally shooting well. It's unreal they got blown out in game one...then got a 3-2 series lead without really shooting great.

 

[CyArob]

10 point lead gone in 2.5 minutes

Or you're feeling good because you took their best shot and forced game 7.

Chances are they won't turn it over so much. Chances are they also won't shoot the lights out from downtown.

If Durant would remember he's not playing for OKC anymore Golden State would be winning with ease.

Capela is all over the place in a game where lots of players for both teams just aren’t.

Their best shot would include Chris Paul. But maybe they’re just bluffing and know he’s out for game 7 too.

Curry is just a sick, sick shooter of a man.

Best shooter I’ve ever seen. His coordination and reflexes are comparable to minor X-men/Avengers hero super powers.

 

[CycloneErik]

No human ever to play the game was catching that pass.

 

[HFCS]

I wouldn’t want the job and he’s a sneaky **** but the officials are starting to lose their grip on how to officiate Harden. He’s getting plenty of ridiculous whistles and failing to get some pretty obvious ones.

 

[ISUAlum2002]

Sucks, was hoping to get GSW eliminated tonight. Hope the Rockets can take them out at home.
