Probably Knicks. They've probably been playing at the highest level of the Brunson era. I also can't trust Harden, even though it's helpful that he's not the guy. Mobley has stepped it up though and if he can outplay Towns, that gives the Cavs a decent chance.

I’m curious how the week off will affect NY. Rest is good, but sometimes it can break your momentum.

Mavs fired Jason Kidd. He had 4 years and $40M left on his contract.

It took approximately 40 minutes of basketball, but the Knicks finally woke up from their time off. On to another overtime!

 

While I don’t think either of these teams can beat the Spurs/Thunder in a best of 7, this could be a fun series of its own.

Well if the rest of these conference finals games are like the first two the next week or so will be unreal

There is baseball, and occasionally there are other things of note

Choke job. Gotta think the Cavs will regret letting that one get away.

This WCF is the real deal. Going to be a great one. Already has been.

Hartenstein should get a game suspension for yanking Castle's dreads. But yeah, Castle's got to clean up the turnovers. He's a legit star in the making, but his ball handling has been sloppy AF so far this series.

He's not what I'd consider a pure PG, but he does need to improve there. For now though, SA really needs De'Aaron Fox back.

I haven't watched much NBA the last few years, but San Antonio and OKC is great stuff.  The first two games have been fast and physical.  Two good teams have delivered 2 great games.

 

The injuries seem to be mounting.  I wonder if the winner will have anything left for the finals?

Very poorly aged. Should’ve known better than to have had such lofty expectations for a James Harden led playoff team.

And now it’s official, Knicks are headed to their first Finals since 1999. Their opponent that year was the Spurs.
