I just feel like Atlanta is going to beat the 76ers tomorrow. If I were a betting man I would put money on that.

Freak just hooked Durant and pushed him. No call.
I felt like they really let Mil do whatever they wanted with Durant down the stretch. Kind of surprised me.

Glad the Nets are gone. Not so much because I am afraid of them, I am just glad the Lakers and Nets are gone because I don’t like them and their prima donna stars.

The best player in the world air balled the potential game winner.

I watched the Nets Bucks game and it was hard to watch. Damn.
Hard to understand how Bud still has a job.

Maybe he shouldn't have played the whole game. Again.

It’s the Mike D’Antoni/Steve Nash way.

Sounds heroic, but it’s a totally dumb move, there are plenty of moments where you can combine a timeout and/or the final seconds of a period, for an extended breather that would be useful, you know, in the final minutes of a closed game. Same reason you pull out a player with two fouls in the first period, or three in the second, you need him to be available at the fourth, rather than a pirric victory on the first half.

Brooklyn's entire bench tonight - 20 min, 0/0 FG, 0/0 FG, 2 Reb, 1 Ast, 3 PF, 0 Points
Brooklyn's starters averaged 49 minutes played.

How many players can you name that have been better than Durant over the last decade? There are probably only 2 realistic names anyone could make an argument for over KD, and the argument could be lost just as easily.

Do they get to OT if he sits down tonight? I didnt watch any of the game until OT, so I don't know, but did he look tired before then?

Bye bye Nets. Don't let the door hit ya.
The amount of schadenfreude I had watching Brooklyn lose was off the charts. Happy for the Bucks but phew, they really didn't look great. I can't believe how well everything is aligning for us to make a title run.

That came out of nowhere. What does that have to do with him airballing the potential game winner TONIGHT?
I don’t get why you and FF feel you need to be Durants protectors. I’m going to enjoy the diva going out in style tonight. You guys are welcome to slobber over him. But not tonight.

He hit the shot to send it to OT, so they definitely wouldn't have been there without him.
