lol They love that 2nd round in Philly huh

This type of thinking, that the Suns had to win it all under D'Antoni, contributed to where the team is today.

The second round doesn't sound so bad anymore.

Maybe the 76ers are happy to find a winning coach in Doc Rivers who will give the team a new direction.

I'd be happy to have a winning team back in Phoenix even if they only advance to the second round.

Sarver thought it was so easy when he let key pieces escape like Joe Johnson, Mike D'Antoni and Alvin Gentry.

Mike D'Antoni ran those great teams INTO THE GROUND. They might have been well-built for a championship run, but they weren't coached for one.

Although I like more than a 7 man rotation that's what the Heat have been using during the playoffs. Of course other players have been getting minutes out of necessity against the Lakers.

Bam and Goran doubtful for game 3. It looks like this series will be over in four games.

Night and day between how Butler takes a foul compared to LeBron. I'm sick of these floppers, goat my arse.

It looks like Isaiah Thomas will be trying to resurrect his career after surgery.
