NBA Season 2017/18

Rockets imploded in a very similar manner to the Celtics last night. Just kept bricking 3 after 3.
Apparently this was the first time this season they've shot under 20% from 3 (7/44). Maybe it's the moment, maybe it's fatigue, and maybe they just died by the sword they lived by all year. But it was tough to watch.
At the other end, Curry and Durant stepped up in the second half and stamped their class on the game. Big moments from big players.

How you didn't finish with "Maybe it's Maybeline" I will never know

Just finished watching game 7. Houston were ice cold despite seeing a lot of good looks from 3, just as the warriors all got hot from deep. Harden barely featured in the fourth quarter, he must have at least been outscored by Tucker. They even started missing a few FTs as well. HOU were so obsessed by the 3 that they left it too late to switch tack and go inside where points were easier to come by. With no CP3 we can only wonder what might have been, but Paul can't make his team mates make already open shots. Houston shot so poorly I wonder if that won't leave a mental scar. At least they didn't lose a game through poor FT shooting like Nick Anderson

Couldn’t hit the side of a barn door. CP3 showing his frustration on the bench was hard to watch.
Chef Curry really stepped it up. Then KD took over in 4th. Rockets kept jacking it up and got nothing.
Warriors in 5

This article about Brian Colangelo at the Sixers is wild:
The Curious Case of Bryan Colangelo and the Secret Twitter Account
A collection of Twitter accounts that has criticized Joel Embiid and Markelle Fultz, disclosed sensitive information, and outlined team strategy shares eye-opening similarities. What does that have to do with the Philadelphia 76ers’ decision-maker?

50 fucking points in a Finals game.

And the Warriors win it by 10. The last play of the 4th will go down in history, with JR Smith having one of the all-time great brain fades.
what happened. Gif or video much appreciated.
-
@mariner4life game was tied. JR Smith thought Cavs were up by 1.
-
@kiwimurph No! No! oh no! that is going to be on "top-10" lists for all time. JR Smith is now so motherfucking famous.
-
Was hard to watch....poor guy not what you want to remembered for.
Thank god beaver got to redeem himself.
-
zero chat about today's game? Warriors looked like they were in control the home time.
Curry with a record 9 threes. One shot, if it was anyone else, people would yell "buuuullllshit!" but Steph does it so fucking often. Loses the handle, dude in his face, basically in the car park, shot clock to nothing, jacks it up. And swish.
-
@mariner4life I heard Warriors fans were chanting MVP when JR Smith was at the foul line.
Troll level maximum.
-
@mariner4life you look at Lebron's body language after the shot. It totally says"what the fuck are you supposed to do there?" Love was playing great D and he's 6'10 but somehow Curry get just enough separation to get over him. You can not guard that and yeah it's totally a high percentage shot for Curry.
-
I can't see Cav's pegging on back but stranger things have happened.
On Jr, we had some water cooler talk today about the US's love of immortalising sporting mishaps and how the central figure is never allowed to live it down again. In other words Jr's lasting legacy will be not knowing what the fuck was going on.

Every year during March Madness they almost always show Chris Webber's brain fart in the NCAA final
