^Stupid troll gets his 15 mins. He even said the Hornets weren't crazy about his antics. Fans that think they're part of the game = douches.

Game 7 was fun to watch because it was such a slaughter. Kemba came back to Earth and they got owned on the rebounds as Clifford pointed out. Wade didn't even have to do much as Dragic earned his money. Deng had a great series too. Game 6 was an excellent game to watch as well. Gotta love the drama and vintage Wade came through. Gotta love how mentally tough the Heat responds in Game 6's when down. Remember the Celtics Lebron game. Wade pulled that face like "ENOUGH!" On to Toronto

Heat in 5. Raptors were very lucky to come out of that series.

Yes, they were.

Would have been a different story had they lost.

You can bet that there would have been major changes from the top, down.

Pretty sure regardless of how far they go this season, Demar is probably gone. They could use some other roster changes as well, but we'll see what happens.

Doubt in 5. Local press thinks Heat in 7. Experience and Whiteside helps.

On twitter, he blew up with people finding out who he was and now confirmed that he won't be renewing his season tickets.

Anyway, if you’re hoping to see Deason in action (or simply hoping to tell him to sit down and shut up), you may never get the chance if the Hornets don’t win the series on Sunday: Deason said he’s not planning on renewing his season tickets because of the expense, the time it takes to travel each way, and because he feels the Hornets’ brass is somewhat ambivalent about his presence.

this is the only reason why. word on twitter is that he owns a pharmaceutical company. Dwade was his old self on friday. Not going to lie, Kemba is a beast. He put everything on the line on friday and i think took a toll on him and showed in game 7.

They had the purple guy on LeBatard yesterday. He actually wasn't too bad and LeBatard ragged on him pretty hard but all in good fun. I respect that he admitted to wearing the bookbag for his company because of free advertising.

Can't believe Spurs lost at home

It was pretty funny that everyone knew something was wrong but no one knew what. - the last 10 secs inbound ball.

Too funny. So much happened in the last 15 secs including fans grabbing OKC guy's arm so he couldnt go back in.

Good God the ending of that Heat game last night. Talking about almost blowing it twice. Once in the 4th and almost again at OT. If Lowry handles the inbounds he probably hits. Was trying to go to bed early.

I know Dwade like these moments but damn the rest of us will have a heart attack. For the most part Deng did well in the game other than the 2 plays that almost lost the game. i think somebody else should inbound from now on.

Fucking Heat. Could've stolen Game 2 which probably gave them the confidence to win Game 3. Homecourt reclaimed by Toronto JV is out for the Raptors so he can stop taking Whiteside's lunch but Whiteside might miss a few too. This just went into smallball mode.

Are nobody watching these playoffs? That Spurs/Thunder ending was great last night though it can be argued Westbrook should've gotten that And 1 towards the end which doomed the Spurs.

Curry dropping 17 in OVERTIME

And the Heat game from 2 nights ago was also pretty intense.

Both Heat series have been pretty good TBH. Overtime and close games. Few blowouts.

OMG what an ass whooping by the Thunder. Props to them. If it were not for Warriors, Spurs were huge favorites. So much for that Warriors/Spurs clash of the titans series we all wanted.

Impressive win by the Dinosaurs against the Heat. Didn't think they would pull it off.

Doubt they'll get past the LeCavs.

Sadly I missed both games Friday and Sunday. Not so sad about missing Sunday's. I knew giving away Game 2 would be the backbreaker. So curious what will happen this summer.

Other than Cavs and GS, no one is giving any other teams a chance. It is not even up to debate anymore
