Well the Cavs are through to the next stage sweeping the Pacers, the Cavs had all the momentum going into game 4 after coming back in game 3 to win that game. I'm hoping the Bulls can win tonight in a close game currently as I have them to win at the ML. It's been a great series so far between the Bulls and Celtics so it will be interesting to see which team makes it through to the next round.

This is it.

Cleveland Cavaliers sweep Indiana Pacers via 106-102 win. Lebron James and Kyrie Irving combined with 61 points. Kudos to Indiana Pacers. They really gave Cavaliers a nice defense to the last 4 minutes until the end. From double digit lead, Pacers able to get up and bring the score to a close one. What an effort.

With their elmination, I think this will be the last time we can see Paul George at Indiana Pacers wearing their jersey. Stay tuned as he is one of the hotter player on trade rumor next season.

Lakers, probably? They've always been saying that, the Pacers office should match the trade, it's not time for them to rebuild yet.

No doubt that Cavs will secure a spot for this play offs. SO it's either Raptors or Milwaukee Bucks will face them. This playoffs is very exciting, I want one of the crowd choice, BUcks to face Cavs it's like a Lebron Kid(Giannis). But still Raptors is one of the strongest team right now, they really improved a lot for this season.

Kyrie Irving I can say that today is the place to say that it has done a tremendous performance. I do not want to be indiana for the Indiana Pacers, but at least I wanted to have a game of beats.

I'm with the Bucks, they are a young team but they have been into the playoffs, and it is there time again to prove they
are also good. Kidd did a great job of transforming bucks into a threat in the east, if this will go to game 7, the pressure will be on the raps.

That's why I'm going to remain with Bucks because it is one of my picks and I want them to see on the top. They are not a young team, they are playing in NBA for decades already maybe you don't know their history. I like Bucks only right because of Giannis Antetokoumpo, he's a very versatile player.

Just want to clarify you that if anyone here stated a "young team" to a certain NBA team, means most of their rosters are included in the average age of a NBA player where their performance is still on peak. It's not based on their commencement of operation in the league which we obviously know that most of the teams are playing with decades now.

Why Bucks a young team based on the quoted post of yours? If you will look into their line of rosters, almost all of them are still sitting below or early 30's. Like for example, Antetokoumpo is only 22, Maker at 20, J. Parker 22 etc. Only Jason Terry is noted as near their career ending.

Oh yeah, that's what I supposed to say and their roster is very young and Jason Kidd is good on how he is managing and coaching these young bloods and for sure he is seeing a great future for this people. I just wondered those teams that has a veteran coach (former NBA player) are the ones that are excelling.

Its a hard earned swept by Cleveland Cavaliers. For the most part, though, it was Lebron James and Kyrie Irving trying to hold things togethe. D Williams with 14 points, was the only other Cavaliers player in double figures. As for Paul George, this is one of his worst game in the series with just 15 points.

Houston Rockets Vs Oklahoma City Thunder

I am still not convinced by Thunder's home win in Game 3 of the playoff. Thunder was trailing by more than 10 points at one point of the game and yet Rockets only lost by 2 points in the end. Thunder are more reliant on Westbrook than Rockets on Harden. You can see that Thunder only managed to win because they were playing at home and yet Rockets made it close. Rockets played better than Thunder in the regular season so I am going for Rockets +1.5.


This is actually one of the more exciting matchups this first round because of the russ/harden story and who's more deserving of the season mvp plum. Though i agree with you. It seems that westbrook is the only one willing his team to victory. Perhaps harden has better teammates but someone has to really step up if okc is to push this series further. Though really, two hands up for westbrook. The guys giving it all out every single night but his teammates should be more focus on doing their part for the team instead of having westbrook rake up the stat sheet

This proved the basketball is still a 5 man team. Not one person taking over the game. Westbrook is MVP caliber but he need the whole team to provide him support. Some of this team mates are just watching him doing his thing. Instead of doing screens or trying to get rebounds after he missed a shot. They won last game, but I think Harden and Houston will take the series.

NBA Playoffs results:

Toronto Raptors 87 @ 76 Milwaukee Bucks (Series tied 2-2)
Washington wizards 98 @ 116 Atlanta hawks (Wizards leads series 2-1)
San Antonio spurs 108 @ 110 Memphis Grizzlies (Series tied 2-2)
Golden State Warriors 119 @ 113 Portland Trail Blazers (GSW leads series 3-0)

I'm totally disappointed with Portland Trail Blazers lost today. I watched the game and Portland was leading when suddenly Klay Thompson caught fire and ignited a run that close a 16 point lead by Portland to tie the score at 83. 16 points in a span of 4 minutes, that's it. I think GSW will swept Portland in this series. Considering the Warriors have won the last two games in the series without Durant, it will take a miracle for them not to advance to the conference semifinals.
Blazers really disappointed their fans leading the whole entire game and lose the final minute thinking that they can get this game to at list extend the series klay Thompson makes another wonderful game again.

Yeah. It was a total break-down from Portland. Lillard and McCollum were red-hot carrying Portland but the team needs more bench support. This hasn't been a one-sided series, but Golden State continues to persevere late in games while playing at less than full strength.

It looks like a lot of Milwaukee Bucks here including me that will get disappointed that our bet team doesn't have a chance to make a lead against Raptors. They ended losing with Raptors 11 points. I'll remain with Bucks guys, I don't want to be called as a bandwagon at this moment. And yet the series was tied 2-2.

I was funny because I saw the toronto game the other night and they were down 20 points at the half and it looked like the bucks were about to run away with the game. So I left it.
I didn't think they would of won 2 games against them already.
Then they will have a chance after all and not get blown out of the playoff race now.
I'm disappointed too, it seems like this series will reach game 7. We all thought the Bucks will easily win game 4 since they route the Raptors in game 3, this is gambling and it's hard when one team is too favorites, the fixing will take place..hahahha, just my excuse because I loss...

Game 5, both team will be playing hard and I would not be surprise if the Bucks will win again, it's a big puzzle game though.

If this series will go up to game 7 it's better that this will end up with that long. Raptors is one of the hardest opponent right now but I really can see the potential of Bucks to get into the finals. This is their obstacle course, if they will not surpass to Raptors for this series well they need to try harder next time but if they do that will be good.

Except Cleveland and Golden State who are on 3-0, great balance in the other 6 games. Before the start of these playoffs I thought that San Antonio, Boston and Toronto would have won at least 5 games. Instead San Antonio and Toronto are on 2-2 and Boston even under 2-1. We'll see how many surprises there will be at the end of the first round.

I think Clevland will want to finish the storm early. I can say the last chance for the Indians, but their job is obvious. Golden will come to an end early because the game is back.

The other matches in the group are likely to be contested matches. But until now, the Houston and Cleveland series have been one of my favorites.

Wesbrook can battle the Houston rockets and will win tomorrow if he will improve his decision making in crunch time.
Thunder are good in first 3 quarters but they are having a problem in closing out games, they almost lose in game 3 actually.
