    Olynyk is one of the dirtiest players in the league.
    He got what he deserved for all his dirty plays during the rest of the games so far.

    I agree that he wildly overreacted, but Olynyk sets screens in a dirty way: he always has his hands up by his chest at other dude's head level. You're not supposed to set screens like that.

    If he sets bad screens and you know about it, then come at him with a little more force. Make Olynyk think twice about fully committing to a future screen.

    All he did was potentially get kicked out of the next game and hurt his team. Either way, its a screen. This soft stuff is going to be the death of the NBA.

    Jordan, Bird, Isaiah Thomas, and guys of that nature were tough as nails. I think the soft mentality is something you either have or don't.

    That means more Bogdanovic and Thomas Satoransky.

    Actually, no.

    Oubre got what Olynyk deserved. If the Wizards lose a close game 4, pin the tail on Oubre for being a child playing a man's game.

    Not like Oubre is some kind of superstar that his team will miss.
    Stupid but fully deserved. As I said I hope either now or in the RS some player does the same and worse to Smart.

    People act like he didn't rip Kevin Love's should out of its socket

    I am not a KLove fan but that sh*t was some of the dirtiest **** I had seen on a basketball court

    since i just heard it again on the jazz/warriors game, why do people keep saying olynyk flopped? i don't have any love for olynyk after the kevin love play, but a dude literally got a running start and slammed into him as hard as he could and olynyk was basically just standing flat-footed next to a referee. are people surprised he fell down? it's not like he snapped his head back and flew 15 feet. he basically just fell down. which is pretty much what would happen any time someone slams into you as hard as they can. people are so used to flops they just scream flop any time someone falls down regardless of the physics of the situation.

    So the Cavs are definitely not losing a game until the Finals.

    I really like this Wizards team. I think they can beat the Cavs. And they are also very young.

    I like them too
    but I think they would be doing good to not get swept
    then again
    I think the same thing about Boston

    Celtics are just weak. Hopefully the Wizards close them out in 6.

    yeah of course the chance is minimal but I believe it's more than zero lol.
    For all the other eastern teams I didn't believe they ever had any chance to beat the Cavs in a series at all.

    I think against Lebron, you really need a superstar who can keep the game going. That's why the Pacers did better than Raptors against Lebron. John Wall is the only player in the East who I trust against Lebron. Hope the Wizards go through.

    I hope the Wizards are going to play a good game in Boston and take the W.
