If that Warriors/Cavs game today was a Finals preview, then we're in for a seven game classic next June. That was a hell of a game. Playoff atmosphere and intensity.

If only I didn't completely hate both those teams. Hope someone else gets into finals,
it was a great game. Even with kd the cavs will still win the championship because they have the greatest player of all time
Won't happen
It's way early, but I'm not seeing anyone in the East good enough to beat the Cavs in a seven game series. In the West you can't count out the Spurs but the Warriors are the clear favorites.
We'll see what the landscape looks like after the trade deadline. There's a handful of teams that might be a player away from at least posing a threat in either conference.

God the east is pathetic. 2.5 games is all that separates 5th in the East and 12th in the East.

Dumbass. He's going to end up suspended for a critical playoff game because he can't control himself on the court. Lots of guys have come before him and they've managed to bring energy and emotion without costing their teams dearly in the process. And I'm kind of surprised that the Warriors are basically supporting him. This is going to come back to bite them in the ass come playoff time.

I'm sick of his ****, and "Being Draymond" isn't an excuse for non-basketball plays. If he were to have that mentality and channel it like Kevin Garnett did or like Russel or Kobe, where they are obviously playing hard and with a ton of emotion, but can contain themselves to the point where they aren't playing OC as hell. I understand apologies would just become white noise after the amount of instances he has been in trouble, but it is better than just saying "yeah, that dirty play and kicking people ****, that's just me, I can't change me."
Right. Green is basically admitting that he can't or won't control himself on the court and it's on the league and the officials to accommodate him. It's not exactly breaking news, but he is really talented and equally immature. It would be a shame to see him miss another playoff game due to a suspension just because you always want the best players playing, but if it happens he'll have nobody to blame but himself.
Malcom Brogdon with a triple double last night against the Bulls. Having a great year. Has an early 2nd rounder ever won rookie of the year?
Milwaukee is now 3-0 with Brogdon filling in for Dellevadova in the starting lineup. The Bucks might be onto something here. Brogdon looks like an ideal complementary player for Giannis. Maybe not the best rookie in his class, but certainly the best value. How he got past the Spurs at # 29 is beyond me.

Great get by the Cavs if they're able to close the deal. Korver will feast off Kyrie and Lebron drive and kicks. It's kind of surprising to see Atlanta already throwing in the towel on this season and looking to the future, but that's what's happening if they move Korver, Sefolosha, and Millsap.

I heart Matt Bonner.

Weird story. I understand the NBA isn't a traditional work environment, but even if there's a family emergency wouldn't you think he would have notified someone either before he left for Chicago or while he was on the way there? The way this story is being reported it sounds like team officials had no idea where he was when the game started. If it's truly a family emergency, then I hope everything is OK now. But this looks an awful lot like a reaction to his recent fourth quarter benchings.
