Rondo being out swung the series. I like Boston in this one.

    Yep, Rondo injury keeps them alive. Washington should be a better matchup for them, not real confident they win the conference finals though. At least they're alive though.

    Boston will beat Washington if they play. Cabs still win the East. LeBron is playing a different game.

    I don't think Boston matches up well with Washington ... I would expect Washington to win in 6

    Scott Brooks vs Brad Stevens. Washington doesn't play great D either.

    It is a hard series to hide Isaiah, but he will get his on the other end too.

    They will be entertaining games for sure ... hiding IT on defense is the big problem for them though in that series.

    The one thing that has struck me lately is how much trouble Boston has creating shots if IT isn't doing it ... if they aren't defending at an elite level they can get in trouble in a hurry.

    James Harden is really bad at defense ... and by really bad I mean a mannequin

    #MyBullets will take a 3-0 series leas and lose in game 7 to the Celtics because that's just what DC sports does.

    I hope OKC gets this one. The Bill Simmons morons were blaming Westbrook for the last loss when in reality he was +11 and the Thunder are the worst team in the league when he sits.

    Quite a few NBA guys decided they were going to use this Westbrook season to show everyone how smart they are and hate on Russ. Simmons has sounded like a retard trying to justify voting Harden for MVP. According to him OKC is a great team and Westbrooks selfish play holds them back.

    Durant has been on Simmons' podcast a few times. Simmons is a sycophant. There is no basis to the Russ hate. I'm not an advanced stat nerd but he has the best real +\- in the league.

    Yeah, so fucking what he missed some shots in the 4th. He had a monster game and was +11 when he was in. The only reason the game was close was because his teammates blew it when he was on the bench.
