    I'm glad the Rockets weren't the second game on TNT today. We would have missed the entire first half. At least we know ESPN plays the other game on ESPN2 if it goes to OT.

    Who cares what the 2nd game was. That game 4 was a MUST-see game for every basketball fan on the planet. Simply amazing game.

    The Bulls recovery after game 1 has been amazing even though they had no business winning today.

    Nets are like Frankenstein in that they are stitched together but don't mesh all that well. They need a seasoned coach that knows what he's doing who can impose his will on the players.

    Memphis - Clips is a good matchup. If I was a Grizz fan I would be mad that there was no opportunity to watch my team play.

    Especially since there is something called NBA TV.

    Still surprised that PJ hasn't made any adjustments for the Nets. You can't start both Wallace and Evans. Neither can make a jump shot so essentially, Chicago can pack the paint, double Lopez, and keep Williams out of the paint. It's at a point where PJ has to make a starting line up adjustment.

    they finally decided if the game was going to 4OT, then the memphis game would go to NBATV. A little too late but shouldn't they go to TBS since not everyone has NBATV?

    Umm every Memphis and La Clippers fan should care. Why would someone care how good this game was while there team is playing a playoff game?

    But the Chicago game was such an entertaining event that you could care less about the Grizz-Clips matchup, especially since only the 1st half was missed

    How is a team with Deron, Johnson and Lopez down 3-1 to a bunch of either injured players or scrubs???? :confused:

    imagine the rockets are coached by tom thibideau.
    we can probably head to the semi final playing against the spurs

    Noah and Deng are All-Stars. Boozer/Taj Gibson are no scrubs. Jimmy Butler is an elite wing defender. Little Nate is a scorer off the bench. Belinelli/Hinrich/Nazr Mohammad are the only ones close to scrub status.

    Not likely, but not impossible either... 2 out of the 3 would be in BK... essentially, they need to take care of game 5, then try to get one game in CHI. They'd have a huge advantage if they got to a game 7 at home.

    Anyone have a download link to this game? I totally missed it and really want to see that 4th quarter and OTs.

    Deron ain't what he used to be. That is for sure. Lately he just looks like a really good borderline all-star. Jazz was lucky to trade him because it is looking more and more that he's on the decline.

    The Nets simply don't have enough fight in them. They are a more talented team on paper than this depleted Chicago team, but they have been playing scared. On the other hand Tom Thibodeau gets the most out of his players. This is a classic series of underachievers vs. overachievers.

    It doesn't really matter either way. Neither of these teams can win more than one game against Miami in the next round.
