    This is why I wanted nothing to do with NOLA in the first round. no one on the Warriors can stop Davis and they have shooters.

    Anthony Davis is first team all defense at PF.
    Holiday has always been a plus defender.
    Rondo only cares on national TV.
    everyone else has stepped up.

    Can't wait to see NO-GSW, without Curry NOLA will have the best player in the series.

    Rondo hitting step back threes. Okay.

    Pelicans defenders are just ripping the ball from the Blazers' players. This is ridiculous.

    One team is going 100 mph, the other 60.

    Sure, but Portland were not terrible during the regular season, correct? Nobody could have guessed what has transpired so far.

    It happened just 3 years ago, the 5 seed Wizards swept the 4 seed Raptors in the 2014-15 playoffs.

    Mirotic would have worked great here replacing Anderson.

    Oh well.
