NBA Season 2017/18
-
This is probably the best finals series I can remember (since getting back into watching in 2010). Still have no idea who is going to win each one.

Rockets vs GSW game 5 is bananas. Rockets up with 2sec remaining.
And they do it. Up 3-2 now, and the Warriors are facing defeat. Iguodala has been a huge loss, but CP3 may have picked up a bad injury in the 4th quarter so they are certainly still alive in the series.
-
Best case for the east is rockets win and CP3 hammy doesn't heal up (not saying I want that). If anything apart from that happens I think we are already watching the final.

ffs, Rackets up by 17 in 1st Q then implode like a goddamn dying star and are about to lose by 8 million. Harden with his usual playoff pointy-end massive hungus choke meltdown job. When it works he looks majestic, when it doesnt it's just 4 guys standing around watching one sad homeless git biff up flailing prayers while trying to milk a foul
Can you provide the blow by blow commentary for the rest of the playoffs mate? 24K as usual

It's bloody great to have two Game 7s with no clear favourites in either.
I could talk myself into backing each of the four teams. If the games were in Cleveland/Oakland then I'd be far more convinced of the likely outcome, but having the 'champion' teams playing away is a great little curveball.
I'll still side with the champs and predict a GSW/Cavs series, but I would not be surprised to see the opposite.
-
Houston needs CP3 to play obviously. Without him I don't think that the Rockets win, even at home. I hope they do.
The Celtics have yet to lose a playoff game at home, and short of LBJ getting 50+ or a meltdown under the pressure I can't see them losing.

Boston up early in Game 7. Crowd going wild. Tatum hitting shots. They will be very very hard to stop.
Side note - they should hold the rookie of the year voting until after the playoffs. At the end of the regular season Simmons would win by lengths, but if you held the vote today it would be hard to go past Tatum.

Yeah the inexperience caught up with the Celtics. But the play from Rozier, Morris and Smart was infuriating - Tatum and Horford were clearly the best two players out there, but they refused to give them the ball. Just kept bricking shot after shot. Madness.
Somehow Lebron survives. They will make docos about this season. Surely he can't do it again... surely!?!?!
