Wemby hit a super long three and the game is tied at 108.  This game is fire.

Nothing against the Knicks or Cavs but this is probably for the NBA Championship in this series.

Double OT. Is it just me or do the Thunder get away with a lot of smacking and pushing?

A lot, a whole lot.

What a friggin game. And that’s just Game 1! 

It baffles me that people think the NCAA tournament is superior to the NBA playoffs.

I think all the hoopla surrounding the NCAA/March Madness makes it an engaging event but the play we saw tonight was top shelf off the hook and college basketball can't even being to compare.

I like both, but it’s two different games.  Especially, during the playoffs.

What was most staggering last night was that the Spurs started the youngest starting 5 in conference finals history.

And one of those five is the best player in the NBA, Victor Wembanyama. 

If I am OKC, I would be putting my bigs on Wemby and beat him up.  The refs allow a lot so why not take advantage of it and out physical him.

Like Minnesota did? That was their plan.
