Knicks hanging on by a thread. Don't count out the old Spurs yet.

Kawhi "Hands" Leonard and Danny Green are the future of the Spurs. Should be a nice run.

Bulls played great. Definitely gave a run for our money each game. Hats down to them.

I'm only sad the Bulls will have to lose Nate. They were so guard-depleted that they were really close to starting their 4th string guard in Teague, since Nate was a game-time decision with that shoulder.

Anyway, it's been an awe-inspiring run. It's amazing the Bulls had even eliminated the Nets. I can't wait to see the Rose-Butler backcourt in action!

Impossible. The LeHeat were not even trying. They should be ashamed that the last game was so close. WTF.


They do NOT deserve to win the Title. Are the Bobcats still in the playoffs?

The LeHeat should be contracted from the NBA for their lack of professionalism and letting Chicago even win ONE game in the series.

These are PRO players...WTF. Show some heart. Show some effort. How could they let Chicago beat them at all?!??!?!??


LeBron and his LeCrew sucks.

Classy that the Warriors team came out after the game to thank the fans.

Looks like the boys from NYC get to work on their golf handicap sooner than I'd hope.

Good job Indiana; Heat in 5.

NY is desperate. That team better choose their late 1st round pick wisely. They are locked in except for JR Smith. They already amnestied Chauncey so I dont know what they will do. They either find a trading partner or keep what they have for the next 3 years. Sucks, I know.

I read they were re-signing JR to a 4 year deal.

Pacers deserved this loss solely because they took Hibbert on two plays that ended up being layups. If I was a Pacers fan, I'd want this coach fired unless they win the series.

Better ask AARP for more coverage for that series. I heard life alert needs some spokesmen.

With Vogel coaching like that this might be a Heat sweep. I mean so what if Bosh pops out for a jumper that's still lower percentage shot then Lebron to the rim.

I begrudgingly agree. Also being a Mets and Jets fan, I know the drill.

I think this loss will totally take the wind out of the Pacers even if they do win a game or two their best chance to make a statement is gone. The Pacers are still up and coming but their not ready. Did anyone see that shirt that Paul George was wearing at the press conference?

Nope.

Pacers OP. I think they win the series.

Good win by the Pacers almost 2 good wins if not for the dumb mistake by Vogel taking out Hibbert. The series is definitely more interesting now but even so the Heat still have the advantage and will more than likely prevail it will just take more games now. Truth be told I would rather Indiana win but if that happens I think it would be one of the most boring Finals in recent memory.

So far the Pacers are showing their youth and inexperience at the half way point of game 3 allowing 70 points, the first two games the played like they had something to prove this game it seems as though they have relaxed a little while the Heat have turned up the volume.

I give it to the pacers, they are a great young team like okc. They played great in gm.2. As for game 3. I didn't get to watch much of the game but I did see somewhat of a lop-sided score at halftime

Spurs headin' back to the Finals. And apparently (IDK if this was referring to the Spurs with Timmy, Tony, & Manu, or the organization since the beginning), they say the Spurs have never lost a Finals.

Should be interesting with them matching up against the Heat (assuming). Carlisle gave Erik a hell of a time with a team full of vets against the superstar Heat, so I'm definitely interested to see how he coaches against Pop. Heat won both games during the regular season, but they were also just 1-2 possession games to win.

Wow props to the Spurs Blew through the Grizz like nothing. Parker and Duncan are freaking kids again. They have like a week off now to recharge. Hopefully they come out cold like Miami before game 1 vs Chicago but I'm not even thinking about them yet since the Pacers are tough.

don't think they ever made the Finals pre Gregg Popovich or Tim Duncan, so yes 4-0 in the finals in the history of the organization. I think Gervin was famous for being probably one of the best players in his generation, but never got to play in the finals.
