Durant asks what kind of party is it? A block party!

 

[Finito]

For all the BS and antics Kyrie is spectacular on the court

 

[Mainstreet]

I can't help but cheer for the Cavaliers. Beating Irving and Durant is a tough job.

That second quarter was there for the taking and the Cavs went ice cold

The Cavaliers are tight. I just can't cheer for the Nets.

They’ve had a ton of injuries to

Cavaliers can't defend inside. Maybe too worried about Durant and Irving.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

That should be a flagrant

This is the Nets. If the Cavs has any offense at all they’d be winning.

Beverley picks up third foul in 1st quarter for Timberwolves.

KAT is scoreless with 2:32 left in quarter.

Wolves don’t look ready for the level of physicality they clips are throwing at them.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

KAT not planting in the paint and punishing smaller defenders is a tremendous error.

 

[Proximo]

Kat looks awful.

The Clippers are doubling KAT and frustrating him. Their defense is tenacious. We've seen this before that's why I don't like playing the Clippers, plus they have more depth thanks to the Trail Blazers.

 

[CardsSunsDbacks]

Kind of hoping the Clippers win this and the Wolves lose to the 9/10 seed.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Deangelo Russell sucks

 

[Proximo]

Deangelo Russell sucks

He really does.

embarrassed I ever wanted him on the suns.

 

[Finito]

Ant-Man showed up tonight so far it looks like he’s the only one for the T-Wolves

Yeah, clips dont look so great either though.

Clean block by Edwards but called for the foul.

 

[Mainstreet]

KAT has 4 fouls and is scoreless. Actually he has 2 free throws.

 

[Finito]

KAT

2 points 1 rebound 4 fouls

Not exactly a first half you want from your all nba power forward

 

[Proximo]

This is straight out pathetic for towns.

nobody watching this should dare classify him as a top 10 player.

 

[Finito]

Clean block by Edwards but called for the foul.

Not clean he hit him in his chest with his left hand
