Raps are getting rekt right now by the Cavs. Losing by 25+ in the 4th and it hasn't even been close. About to be down 0-2.

I feel like the Heat could've given the Cavs more trouble.

The Wiz seem to be redeeming themselves. Blowing out the Celtics right now as the 4th winds down. Up by 27 presently. John Wall has been amazing, and Porter also had a strong game.

I just can't see Morris and root for his team, not even with the good ol' Polish Hammer on board.

I'm super glad Keef is gone, but I don't have the energy to hate him any more. I want the Wiz to win and for Keef to play badly, but I like Wall and Beal and Porter and Gortat and Oubre and a lot of their other guys. Fun team to watch overall.

That's OK. I have plenty for the both of us.

What happened there? Did Olynyk hit him with an elbow to the head on that screen? It kind of looked like it.

Nah just saw it from a different angle. Hard screen but happens all the time.

Olynyk went high with his pick and Oubre kinda lost it. Olynyk took a pretty nice charge tho and it also looked like he was hiding behind the ref a bit as Oubre charged him. Oubre making contact with the ref could also raise the fine.

Keef averaged 31 minutes during the regular season, but is only averaging 25 in the playoffs. His BPM went from -1 in the regular season to -2.5 in the playoffs, while his shooting has plummeted to .404 (basket not found?). Watch and enjoy the time he is on the bench; his coach and teammates know what he's worth.

Do these minutes per game include when he was knocked out of the game early with his ankle injury?

Yep. Includes all playoff games. In 9 games, he has 2 @ about 39, 2 between 26-29, and the other 5 are all 24 or less.

Kind of sad seeing Gortat, IT, Keef, Green, Barnes, Frye, Johnson and Diaw playing on other teams in the second round.
