    "Nuggets have missed 10 FTs today."

    Sound familiar?

    Klay Thompson hit more threes in game 6 than what Denver and Portland doing for game 7.

    If Portland wins, the Warriors play yet ANOTHER injured team in the WCF.

    The luck that team has is ridiculous.

    Denver doesn't know what they are doing.

    They did just lose KD and boogie. It's just they have 5 all stars.

    Somebody inject some CJ's tetosterone into Harden. Guy is fearless!

    Watching this game, Blazers really want this and we're clearly missing a big man off the bench who can hold his own as well as a versatile forward with size. CJ MCollum hustles more than I've seen Harden do. That's what it takes to win.

    I don't believe it. Never mind that I got no rings.

    Let's be real here though for a moment. Rockets beat both of these teams pretty easily.

    I'm pretty confident of that.

    Nuggets are choking just like Houston.

    Yeah but props to Portland though. As bad as the Rockets situation may be, I'm glad I still love the sport as a whole.

    Say what you want about Lilliard and CJ, they come up big when needed, are clutch and tough. Blazers as a whole, gotta respect that. I think they have a good chance to upset the Warriors, though Nuggets size could be most advantageous.

    They are a young team though. Portland is just beating them through desperation at this point.

    This is a team that was swept in the first round last year.
