I've said this before but The Rock in a helicopter jump shoot is the least believable role he's ever been in in Hollywood. Like in the whole trailer when it's at his waist for seemingly no reason, all feels right with the world again.

What's cool is the production team probably already had their notes done for the halftime show so the hosts are going to spend the halftime trying to not read their notes about how good the Rockets are.

The refs fixed the series against the Clippers because they needed the Rockets to be alive for Tomorrowland transmedia synergy.

When I saw the trailer for Tomorrowland I was intrigued but then they showed the name of the movie and I groaned but whatever, I see all movies with Cloon-Dogg anyway.

I honestly think the Lakers would've considered moving #5 and Randle for Melo and he could've had such a relaxing season next to Kobe and Clarkson, at least until Kobe went down.

I think we need to do like a thing where everyone posts a debriefing of their fishing team so things like people being surprised Bazemore is good doesn't happen, he had like 4 months of hot ball with the Lakers.

Hawks offered guaranteed money and doubled his salary (to be fair double his salary was like 1.5 million a year).

I wish the Lakers did viewing parties like that, although I don't know if I'd pay 30 bucks to park to go to one.

I chose the hawks to win, because I needed an upset to get points in the contest. They've looked like poo poo since roughly February. Why can't they make open shots? That's something that pro basketball players do. They make the open shots. Maybe you need good players to win, after all

It is a shame those of us playing strategically are not going to be rewarded.

Why didn't he do anything

I'm going to credit the Warriors D. Harden seems to be doing a hesitation move to get the defender to commit (or foul), but the defense does a nice job of freezing, leaving Harden with no option and no dribble, so he has to pass to Howard (if Howard was like three steps closer, I've seen him score there), who rightly passes it back, but the trap on Harden is perfect and there's no angle for a pass and, game over.
