    On going for the individual single game 3pt record against the Wizards on 2/3 and finishing 1 short:

    '"I was kind of searching but not trying to force with where the game was," Curry said. "You can't mess around with the basketball gods trying to chase a record if the game doesn't call for it."'

    Respectively Danny Green and Stephen Curry

    No. JR Smiff, Beasley, and Lou Will are low-IQ, crazy, chuckers. Danny Green and Curry certainly don't fit in the same category.

    atlanta can't be more on fire. everybody is hitting even the tough shots. the hawks shoot 3's at the same percentage as the rockets and they've got guys firing up from everywhere, off the the dribble, whatever.

    Kyrie and Frye carrying the Cavs. This team is so deep

    As I type, CLE has already made 18 threes. Coming off a, what, 25 three game? Jeez.

    JR might be one of the streakiest, if not the streakiest shooter alive

    I know its only the Hawks, but damn Cavs look like they are starting to peak and looking quite scary with all this spacing, shooting and playmaking.

    So Atlanta's probably gonna be swept. Or 1-4

    Good team but still missing that star player. As much as Golden State & San Antonio are team-ball, they also have stars.

    38-44 L First Round (3-4) Indiana
    60-22 L ECF (0-4) Cleveland
    48-34 ¿¿¿L Semifinals (0-4/1-4) Cleveland???

    Al Horford, Kirk Hinrich, Kent Bazemore & Kris Humphries free agents; Team option on Mike Muscala; Mike Scott & Lamar Patterson non-guaranteed

    Do we even want any of those Hawk assets any more?

    I would argue that Teague has the potential. He just hasn't made the jump yet, for who knows what reason.

    I don't think he's going to make a jump at this point, he's a good player but nothing special...anyway i'll be shocked if he's not traded this summer, i'm not sure that he and Schroder can coexist going forward, and certainly they don't want to pay both...

    So much for "the Eastern Conference is surpassing the West" vibe. The Cavs are having a cake walk to the Finals.
