    Looks like a good night of ball. Rockets are terrible so I have no desire to watch.

    Thunder are the 2nd best team in the West. Will get better once Roberson comes back too.

    Damn shame. Hate the Thunder. But it's true. Rockets meanwhile continue to look incompetent.

    Raptors have created a gap in the East the way the Warriors have one in the West

    Rockets are straight garbage and they are in danger of not even making the playoffs. But I still think they can beat anyone currently in the playoffs with their current roster. Not saying there shouldn't be a trade, I welcome one. I'm just saying.

    @ me if you want to.

    milw roster is filled with playoff experience. if you go down their 11 guys who get the most minutes, only 1 player Divincenzo has 0 experience due to being a rookie

    What is it that people say? Oh we are only 5.5 games behind first place. No one other than warriors can really beat us in playoffs (not even warriors according to CP), we will be fine. Meanwhile everyone is creating more gap and Utah is scoring 150 points. They better not come with that attitude tomorrow or else they will Finally get humbled? Nah they probably keep thinking they can beat anyone and just cruise like they been doing

    im not sure why you guys think the rockets can beat anyone in a series. i disagree, especially with how inconsistent cp3 has been. if this continues the rockets are definitely done and will not make the playoffs. if they do, i believe james harden still has to do too much. the rockets really need another star here to ease the burden. with cp3 aging, his workload has increased thus far this year. its too much to ask IMO. he shouldnt have to be getting 40 pt triple doubles just for the rockets to have a chance.

    people were killing Lebron for going to LA instead of Houston saying he doesn’t want to win, but it wouldn’t be a surprise at all if he beat us in a playoff series with this current Lakers team...such a shame how far we’ve fallen

    To be fair, I don't think anyone on that roster would immediately volunteer to share their breadth of playoffs knowledge, based off experience. I think only Dellevadova is the most experienced of the bunch, and he only got to the finals because of LeBron.

    Meanwhile, you've got a Finals MVP and some guys who have been to the finals (Ibaka, Green) along with guys who have gone deep into the playoffs (Lowry, JV).

    If you're comparing the rosters of MIL and TOR as a whole, TOR is far and away the most experienced team (at losing to LeBron in the ECF).

    your're talking about actually going deep into the playoffs, so that would be a diff story. so if you're going with that logic then toronto's depth wouldn't be rushing to share their knowledge either

    Why wouldn't they? A lot of the guys have been there. Kawhi and Green and (to a lesser extent) Ibaka have all been to the Finals, and many have been past the first round.

    Can't say the same for Milwaukee's players.

    If you're just talking about purely players making it to the playoffs, you can find that on almost every roster.
