Houston Rockets 118 - 87 Oklahoma City Thunder

A 31-point blowout, what's up with that?

I'm a fan of OKC especially Russell Westbrook. But with this game I'm very disappointed but on the other hand, I'm happy too. Why? Because the OKC shouldn't be always hoping for Westbrook to be on beastmode, each of them should contribute for their matches to come. This is a good lesson for the whole team and congrats to Rockets.

Houston There is a very good team at home but in this match there was no team in Oklahoma City sense. We can say that James Harden has found very comfortable numbers.

Russell Westbrook was defeated when he did not show much influence. But in the next game we will get better, I hope we are watching some more competitive game.



I agree. This game basicallly showed us the difference between the rockets and okc. Russ may very well be the regular season mvp but with the support that harden is getting from his teammates, they're likely to be the team to progress to the second round if russ' teammates would continue to make it a russell westbrook solo show. The playoffs is a whole new ball game so if they don't step up its going to be a short first round for okc
Russell Westbrook is a good player, there is no doubt about it. But even though he is a good player it does not mean the team always need to rely on him carrying the team. Also Westbrook is playing with a lot of pressure right now as he is still ringless and needs to prove that he can win without the team he once had. Also even though if the OKC pulled of a miracle in this round I don't think they will be lucky in the next round after that.

As what i've been expected. Westbrook was out of gas and really chocking in play-offs. But i can't blame him since he still play all out even in their last much of the season. While rockets are resting their players before the play-offs. And now the result are already reveal. This will be a sweet victory for rockets.

Indiana Pacers Vs Cleveland Cavaliers

Both teams head to head record points to over points most of the time. It was unlucky that the Pacer lost to the Cavaliers in the first leg off the playoff.
Paul George is a huge thread to the Cavaliers and every game would not be easy for them as well. I believe that The Cavaliers will up their game by outscoring the Pacers. My bet is on over 210.5 points as Cavaliers defense are not exactly great.

Let's set aside what happen to Cavs-Pacers matchup as I don't see any comments here or if anyone was surprise by Giannis Antetokounmpo's awesome performance. What a monster highlights he produced in their Game 1 win against the Toronto Raptors. Honestly I didn't expect that Raptors will struggle to them as I see the game will be close (although close on some occassions throughout the game).

The "Greek Freak" rains lots of posterized dunks which you can't imagined "that is a dunk?" prior to the play. Bagging 28 points, they upset the third seed Toronto Raptors. It's a must to watch the Game 2 as Im sure DeRozan wants some bounce back especially he was hardly blocked by the Greek Freek at late in the end of the game. That was a poster one.

Definitely a whole new level in his career, I was pleasantly surprised seeing him in this light, he was always lacking in personality somehow (well that didn't stop Leonard...) but now it's clear that his ceiling is much higher than expected. I'm not sure if the Bucks have what it takes to beat the Raptors, especially in terms of experience but speaking of that they will be definitely be getting plenty in these series and the ones to come if they manage to get through.
They stole game 1 in Toronto and that is already big enough, actually I made some cash with them since I was able to bet on Moneyline with 3.2 odds.
Moving on to the game 2 is tough for the Raptors because the pressure is on them already but I see them winning this game with a wide margin, I will not hesitate to bet on them anymore and this spot is a must bet for them since they cannot afford to go 0-2 in this series.

Too much surprise this playoffs, the Jazz also stole one game in Clippers.
I am not at all surprised by the what they say as upset wins by the Bucks and Jazz, respectively. These are pretty strong teams, especially the Bucks who have been on the rise since the All-Star break. The Raptors, I believe, also lost Game One of the first round of the playoffs last year, so it will be no big surprise if they bounce back strong in the next few games. The lower ranked teams are really trying to make a run with some games going their way, which makes this year's playoffs a lot more exciting.

Series will be difficult for the Cavaliers.

If they won only by 1 point today, then they will more than likely lose the games at Indiana and the series will go to 7 games, because Indiana probably will win at least 1 game in Cleveland

Let's see if the bulls can upset Boston today

Never thought the Pacers can fight them actually, seems to me this series is gonna be like the conference finals several years ago.

Indiana Pacers, when Paul George is healthy will always fight whoever they face. It seems George always shows his true potential when up against a team like Cavaliers. So this is a true test for the Cavs. That's why I don't believe that Cavs will go up to the NBA finals because teams like Indiana will make it difficult for them. If they are able to past this round and go on the next, the fatigue factor will sets in and the pressure to win will be needing much more effort.
That is also one problem in a team that only depends on one star player. What if he becomes injured? Then instantly you will know what the results are in that series. A good example for a team that is prepared even if one star is injured is the Golden State Warriors in which they are capable of winning even if Durant missed a lot of games. But the Warriors still has a good caliber of players even of Durant was out plus they know how to play defense especially offense.

No we can't take that as a basis for Cavaliers to be more likely lose to Indiana. Why?

Here is my wild analyzation:

Yes that is alarming and we can speculate that Cleveland Cavaliers might go into difficult way in beating the Pacers since they only lead a single point game on Game 1. If Pacers can do that then they can still make that happen again. But on the other hand, it's impossible that the whole CAVS are not doing some preparations and keys as a factor on how they will prevent that thing to happen again. Surely some reviews are being placed right now after the game so that some measures must be taked place in action.

The game is just a tune up game for Cavs. Besides that Indiana Pacers is not a weak team especially when Paul George is on fire. Lebron James seems doing well on the game but I can't that the other two (Love and Irving) is at 100% performance. But Cavs is a great team and they will get the eastern conference title.
The good thing about the Cavaliers is that they always improve especially in a series. Remember Lebron James once carried the Cavs to Game 7 without Love and Kyrie. Right now Cavaliers are still trying to preserve there best plays until they reached maybe the semis where the games gets tougher for them.
i also think that way its just a glimpse and dry run for them considering that they are the defending champion and most of the attention are still with their team especially when we see such game like this, indiana is a great contender but for sure they are not ready to out thrown the cavs.
