NBA Playoffs 2014

HOLY **** KD. This isn't real life.

GOATKINS ties the game, going to OT!!!

Jesus Christ. I'm speechless. What an amazing finish to the 4th. Perkins on the buzzer beater says it all :pac:

I don't think I drew a breath for the last 30 seconds. Am I dead?

I woke up from my dream of being on the island from LOST and thinking I saw Grizzlies - OKC in a playoff classic and the series is level at 1-1 after tonight. Oh, it's real you say? Good.

On a serious note, Warriors being stomped on by the Clippers, proper beatdown. Series is 1-1 there too (saying this early in the 3Q). I just want to know if Mark Jackson is going to thank God for this ass kicking post-game.

Warriors on the end of a serious beat down. If they lose game 3 at home (and I suspect they will) I expect a full capitulation from that point on.

Grizz do what they do. Great win from them. They have the potential to cause a major upset here if they continue to play like that. This will take all of KD's Goatkins greatness to get them out of this hole.

Wow, just watched the 4th quarter an overtime this morning, unbelievable win for the Grizzlies. Had to win it twice, had it won in regulation, then this crazy ****

Fantastic character and execution to win it in overtime after that.

Dear Memphis Grizzlies,

Sorry I ever doubted you. Also apologies that I thought you wouldn't win a game in this series. I was wrong and stupid.

Oh and the Clippers won by 40.............

I missed a Perkins buzzer beater? ****

Looked a fairly weak foul call on Gasol. More KD just running out of room.

This first round has thrown up some great matchups.

Atlanta have the best offense in the East versus Indiana.
Washington are a tough matchup for Chicago.
OKC really struggle to deal with grit'n'grind.
Raptors-nets and rockets-blazers are closely matched too.

Normally the first round is a formality for the most part, but this year that has been reversed.

Yeah it's a strange one alright, but great to see from a neutral's point of view.

They have got to cut down the number of games during the regular season. (admittingly, I LOVE being able to watch a game almost every night from November to April)

These games have been excellent, even the eventual trashing of Bobcats was good game.

The playoffs have been very good so far. Giving up any notions of betting on them, though had an optimistic fiver on Memphis last night and 6 on JeAndre Jordan to score 10.5+, but messed it up by thinking Warriors 8+ (knowing full well that Griffin would not allow the previous night to happen again, but feck me, Griffin was a beast, Jordan too, defensively)

Russell Westbrook scored a similar crazy 3 point match winning shot, in that very same corner, within the last 2 months. I did not think that that could be beaten. And now KD does it with Gasol marking him. Sweet mother of Jesus. And despite that, they still lost.

Let us remember, KD was on the verge of having a stinker , 8 points in the first half (credit to Memphis) and then boom

I love the camera closing in on the Memphis chap who had a stunning third quarter. You gotta be close to crying at that point. Your team learns from its mistake, absolutely silences the home team for much of the game, you play a cracking game, and you still can't kill them off. Credit to Memphis (we can't be shocked , as they have been in savage form since Gasol came back),

I don't really think, considering it being the playoffs (got give slack to silly mistakes and turnovers) neither team deserved to loose.

I was doozing off at that point, still watching repeats of the fourth - ot , about three times this morning. Unbelievable Jeff!

Looking forward to raptors - nets part 2 tonight, cant understand how raptors are 1/2 with bookies though, but i guess they cant be as bad as they were on sat :rolleyes:

Cheers. Crossed the 1K profit mark in for the Game 1's, so I was chuffed last night. Now to double that

Oh, and humour keeps sane me during the basketball half the time. Bad energy = bad bets!

You missed the explosion on ISH then I take it once KD made that shot and GOATkins tipping it in to force OT, worth a read in your own time

Game 2

Pacers must square up the series tonight. This has to be a win tonight, Hibbert needs to leave his vagina at home.

He'll still be shook over big bad Korver.
