Mitchelle was unlucky enough on his final shot against nuggets.

It was Conley who took the final shot for the Jazz in game 7. Mitchell, on the other hand, turned the ball over with over 10 seconds to go. Jazz were lucky enough to even have the chance to win the game after that turnover.

Not playoff related...Steve Nash signed a 4-year deal to be Nets head coach. One of the best PG's NBA had but I wonder how's that going to turn out for ball hog Kyrie Huh

He could be switching team again if Nash tells him to pass the ball more than he's used to.

We can still say that last shot was designed for Mitchell but decided to change it up since people will be expecting for Mitchell to take the shot. Conley was also a reliable shooter but I guess it was not their day. (Such a cool series, one of the best 7 game series I guess).

Steve Nash was a great team-player and maybe the team can change their style with that. When Nash was a player, he ultimately decides on whether who can take the shot and was named MVP because of that. Kyrie decides to hog ball whenever he thinks he can take the shot and that is not that bad if he scores.

I don't get why there was an "Other" option present in the poll but as we can see, most people are really betting their money on Los Angeles LAKERS. Although both of the Los Angeles teams had their scary series with tough contenders, they still pushed trough. Its like we are waiting for them to battle at the Conference Finals.

I also think of betting on Denver because of their current performance since some of their player are really stepping up. Houston would really have it bad (LAKERS IN 5). Their small man line-up is just a bit risky and their execution with it sometimes is not that fruitful.

I say Houston did good but it could have been better.
OKC just made a lot of changes with their best player suddenly in Houston.
I might be late but I am now a fan of CP3. He did the impossible. Leading a team that just lose their leader and making it to Game 7 against a strong team.
OKC management should be happy with that result.
They just need to fill holes or strengthen the chemistry.

Clippers vs Nuggets later. Will the Nuggets surprise us too with a 7 game series? Shocked

This is literally the story everyone would look for, it was amazing and if OKC won that would have been even more amazing but they didn't and even with that this was amazing. OKC not making to second round since KD left (even with melo and PG13) westbrook was told that his triple double seasons didn't mattered as long as they didn't see second round.

End of the season comes, they send away PG because he requests a trade, they get a good kid and picks, seeing how they are not going to be good at all they trade away WB and get Chris Paul for the contract purposes only and get a bunch of picks as well. By all means OKC is actually looking out for the future, and what happens? The team they sent WB to faces them on first round, series goes to 7 games and decided on the very last second of the game by a Harden block. It is like a movie script.

Basketball Hall of Famer Steve Nash Hired as Nets Head Coach on 4-Year Contract
source: https://bleacherreport.com/articles/2907491-basketball-hall-of-famer-steve-nash-hired-as-nets-head-coach-on-4-year-contract

Wow, that's some news! I have to admit i'm a little surprised by this, Nets hiring Steve Nash, who doesn't have any experience as a head coach, he hasn't served any time as an assistant either. His name wasn't even mentioned in the potential candidates for the job, J Kidd and Tyronn Lue were front-runners before the news broke today. Interesting to see how all this plays out next season, with Nets having a pretty stacked-up roster and being favored by many to be a top 3 seed in the East.

Do you like the hire?

Looks like nobody is talking here about the 0-2 deficit by the Bucks right now against the Heat.
Giannis has been exposed and will say it again Cheesy

.
He choked 2 times already and now they are at a 0-2 deficit. If Bucks will lose again in the next round, the chances of them being eliminated in the playoffs would be huge and there is a higher chance too that Giannis will be traded to other teams. Just my prediction only Cheesy

.

Giannis made some turnovers last night but we should not blame him for the defeat.
He tries a lot and he doesn't have any other player to help him.
I hope he is going to leave Bucks otherwise he will have hard times to get a ring with this team.

No wonder they'll be the favorites, but James Harden predicted that they'll win the series so it's hard to choose who to pick. For boards and inside the paint Lakers will be the one to dominate it but on outside shooting I think we can rely on Rockets. Overall, I think Lakers will be the real deal for this second round.

What is Harden supposed to say they think they are going to lose Cheesy

I think this won't be a close match up. I think the lakers pound them inside leading to not many fast break transitions for houston making them play a half court game. My prediction is Lakers and Denver move onto the western finals

I was watching the live streaming of one of the games that should be watch the nuggets and utah Jazz. I thought utah jazz will going to end the best of seven series play off with the nuggets but it seems nuggets team is not that easy to make a surrender and now they tied the series 3-3 and this live streaming is the last game to play and whoever wins in this match will proceed to semi finals in the western conference.

However, though I like the nuggets team if they can make it to the finals in western conference they might be able to play with the strong team the lakers. NBA is really exciting and fun to watch.

Seems like it is a bad season for utah jazz. Mitchelle was unlucky enough on his final shot against nuggets. But it was really a classic game and I feel that this team gave out all their best in this season. Even also, they won against Nuggets. They might be eliminated by lakers at the end. LA seems to be unstoppable. Looking forward for the tomorrow match. It seems like the series become more exciting. I hope everything goes to normal because I missed the real homecourt advantages. The real fans who are shouting and supporting at the court.

Rockets are one of the best in Offense right now in the league with their small ball roster no doubt.
Lakers are also one of the best in Offense but at the same time, they have bigs who can dominate inside the shaded area. Thing that Rockets doesn't have right now.

I'd go with the Lakers with this series too but they must defend the 3 point area in order for them to dominate the series.

Acknowledging how strong Rockets are too, it's a hard pick. But as the crowd favorites, most will be betting for Lakers. LBJ all the way.

Westbrick had received a lot of criticism last game, I think that would change this game, I'm now thinking that the Rockets could possibly dominate the OKC here and Westbrick will lead the way to do that. Are you guys seen the same scenario tonight?

Well they already won against OKC though. I haven't seen the whole game nor the highlights yet but it seems there were some of them who stepped up in this Game 7. Howbeit, it was just a close game, it is just about a two point lead. Same thing with Miami Heat lead against Milwaukee Bucks.

It is going to be very late here so I can't watch the game, I planned on sleeping earlier so that I can wake up and watch the game but honestly I am too old to do that anymore, it was a fun thing when I was younger but not anymore, when I do that I get sleep deprived and I start to be horrible for the following few days because when the game is over I sleep again and I wake up very late and now I gotta adjust all my day.

However if I were to bet any, I would bet OKC as well, we all know that Houston either overpowers their opponents or they just choke, for the last 5 seasons or so they have choked on playoffs so many times, the spurs game, the famous 27 misses in a row game, they are known for that, it is not size or talent, it is choking that kills them. I say OKC gets it this game.

Though I bet on the other side, I used to remember this team, but they are capable of moving to the 2nd round before completely choking.

The last two seasons they finals against GSW and Semis against Blazers hahaha. Harden still looking for the right spice to complete their journey but seems Westbrook are unable to provide that needs. Let see what will happened, good luck anyway.

Forgot to consider that choke events.
But even without that, I already locked my bet for OKC.
It adds more fuel while watching it later. I just hope my eyes will stay open. Cheesy

They haven't really figured out how to really play together yet. Their time at OKC is completely different with Houston. Back then, Harden is the 6th man while WB and KD are regular starters. Their situation kind of reminds me of the time Lebron and DWade first played together.

I hope they sort it out for next season. I had them losing against OKC in 7 games. If they ever make it past 1st round, they'll lose against Lakers.

Game 7 and Game 2.

I bet OKC management is already happy with the results of getting CP3.
Defeating Rockets will be awesome. Grin

How about Westbrook? Did he really make the right decision pairing with the Beard?

I bet Harden won't even shake a hand again if they lose this one.
I hope that he can change that attitude. Show a little sportsmanship.

I will cheer for OKC later. Wink
