Guess I should have recorded the end of that Laker game. After the way it started it was looking like it might be lowest scoring game in history.

73 and 402

Kobe gets 60 to pull out a come from behind win.

Most iconic (regular season) night in NBA history?

So Day 1 went just as expected: Raptors lost, Warriors & Thunders cruised, and nailbiter between Hawks and Celtics.

Detroit is looking legit, all four bottom seeds in the east has a chance to advance, unlike the huge disparity between top and bottom seeds in the West.

Must win tonight

Detroit is good. It's a Stan Van Gundy team with tons of shooting surrounding a star center. We've heard that one before in Cleveland and it didn't end well. But when it comes to crunch time, its Reggie Jackson v LeBron. Cavs will win in 5. Detroit (and anyone else) could probably take out Toronto though.

And I'd much rather watched Raps/Pacers than either of the western blowouts tonight.

Victory!

I guess the top of the West won't be 3 sweeps after all

Embarassing loss.

WAY 2 GO MAVS

coming back from that embarrassing loss on Saturday

Pathetic offense by OKC last night.

I bet the Pistons win game 2 tonight

This Derozan series has been such a bucket of ass

I have no idea why they played Curry in game 4. They don't need him to smoke Houston.

Looks like he is out a few weeks. Could be long enough for the Clips to take them out, and if they get past them beating Spurs with a non 100% Curry will be hard

So Warriors actually don't want to both its and Clippers series end in 5, since then their matchup will probably start on Sunday. Need Blazers to extend that series as much as possible.

If I'm the Warriors, I try to lose the next game against Houston. Extend the series.

Then do the same for round 2.

They can easily win the first two rounds without him.

I hate when a star player goes out in the playoffs. I hope Curry comes back soon but if he doesn't this certainly gives hope to the Thunder.

Not looking too hot for Clippers either with both Paul and Griffin potential out long. Blazers have to feel they can win this series now, and they did give Warriors their worse loss of the season.

Clippers are done, Paul will be out at least two weeks, no way they can hang with anyone without him.

Warriors should still be fine until the Conf Finals.

The Spurs/Thunder series is about to be super important.

If Curry is out for the whole series I think the Blazers have a chance against the Warriors.

And the Raptors are going to win the championship.
