    I mean, he just appeared to be chirping some stuff, and the ref slammed him with two techs and the ejection.

    Denver getting blown out by the Rockets and the Warriors as the 2 seed is not a good look.

    The ref sent KD resting so he could be fresh for the next game.

    It was predictable. It's a young team that just had a great season. It's tough to carry that kind of momentum to the playoffs when you are young team. Probably won't have a lot of juice left for the playoffs. We all know that depth is overrated in the playoffs anyways. While it was cool they were able to play 10-11 men during the regular season, thats not something you successfully do in the playoffs. Look at Hubie Browns grizzlies as a good example.

    Big time pretenders, or do the Warriors and Rockets just have their number? I lean more towards the former.

    They actually are just a superstar short but can't give up too much depth to get him.

    When a good compilation of Westbrook's 20/20/20 is put together, could someone post it in here? You guys know where to find good ones; I'm not about to wade through the fetid morass of the national sports media trying to find one.

    I don't really understand why a guard is getting 20 rebounds, but I also don't really know how someone gets 21 assists, so I want to see it with my own eyes.

    Yeah, I'm trying to look at this from different angles just to make extra sure I'm not being kneejerk, but this just rubs me the wrong way as really attention-whorey. How does Westbrook's impressive personal performance have anything to do with his deceased--I'm assuming--friend?

    Something like "I wish I could enjoy this more, but I miss my friend" would be a much more poignant and sincere thing to say. And, yeah, it's a stark contrast to Harden's message, which was really heartfelt and humble and moving and quiet.

    Rebounding came as no surprise as he has been the best rebounding PG for some time now, he was known to steal from Adams.

    I assume he knew where the hot hands were and was feeding them accordingly.

    ESPN should be all over it as they played the media darlings and Russ being one too.

    Somehow, someway, for whatever reason, this guy finds a way to make it all about HIM. Even if not intentional he makes it all about him and claims that one was for Nipsey. Not the greatest optics but casual fan wont care
