    Looks like a harsh technical on Smith there!

    I say this every OKC game (on Twitter) but Perkins pisses me of greatly.

    Entertaining half!Seems like the Rockets have missed a lot of 3s but they have one less attempt than OKC and one less make!

    Tie game with 5 minutes to go, great fight from the Rockets, could've quit when they went down 12.

    Meanwhile, the Pacers are quietly ticking away in their series, and should prove quite the stumbling block for the Knicks in their persuit for the ECF.

    You got that right mate. Nice highlight dunk from Green.

    They didn't play too badly, it's just that the Spurs are a well oiled machine at this stage and the Lakers are a patched up machine.
    Howard did play well until he got into foul trouble, he had the right mind frame though, refs gave were not giving him any love.
    Nash can barely move out there at times, he is physically limping and no where near his best.
    I think if they had Loves scoring ability at certain times in the game they would be able to push them closer.

    Wasn't impressed with the Thunder (as championship contenders) last night either. Ordinary enough Rockets team....Patrick Beverley playing in Russia last year, Lin average (and went off at half-time), Harden good, Parsons decent, but a second-round pick in his second year, Asik decent defender, non-factor on offense.

    They really should be putting teams like that to the sword, but easily could've lost the game last night, were down 4 with about 3 mins to go.

    Yeah nice dunk alright.

    The Gerald Green that must people don't see though is the Gerald Green who chucks 3s, is never in the flow of the offense, has no basketball IQ and constantly takes bad shots.

    Can't bring myself to... Even though as I type this the Bucks are up 21-13, I just know they'll piss it away. Bulls Nets, now that'll be a game.

    The Heat woke up for a bit in the third and fourth quarter!

    The Nets are still within touching distance of the Bulls after a horrible quarter and half offensively

    Said it before, but this has been the case for many of the regular season games too. Whatever happens, this team if it does indeed meet Miami in the finals will not be beating them.

    Story of Miami this season. First gear for much of the first half before turning on the afterburners in the fourth if not third quarter. Easy money when Heat lose in the first half.

    Would be very surprised if Memphis lost tonight, would be a bit of a disappointment considering how good they have been this year.

    Didn't look at any basketball tonight. NFL Draft was on.

    Taking in the last 8 min of the 4th between LAC and Mem

    I've been critical of him on here since he signed his mega-bucks deal, but Boozer is doing solid business for the Bulls this year. Not crazily spectacular or dropping stats that will bow you away type of play, but enough to get noticed and getting it done at big times in crucial parts of games.

    You also have to give major credit to Thibs for how hard he has his team playing at both ends of the floor all year. Must be a dream to play for - though I'd imagine pre-season and training sessions are nightmares!

    You watched a draft over actual sport?
    WTF?

    Unfortunately I see that Gerald Green all the time. I'm amazed that Orlando Johnson lost his place in the rotation to Green. I know Vogel has said it's a fluid situation but Johnson has done very little wrong in his rookie season. Mahinimi is in the same boat. Pendy is good but I'd trust the French man more in a pressure situation in the playoffs.

    Yeah looking forward to it alright, although I think the Celtics get this one. I can't see past the spurs in the later game though.
