I really enjoy seeing ex-Celtics like Tony Allen and Perk playing well.  Even Courtney Lee, although his tenure here was much shorter.

Tony Allen has done a great job on KD. He's the best perimeter defender in the league. Crazy how well he guards guys 7 inches taller than him.

I can't believe they did not call an offensive foul on Durant on that last play. He just plowed right over the defender.  That is what I hate most about the NBA, bad calls and non-calls.

Man, these timeouts...

There should be a rule that every overtime there should only be just 2 timeouts per team. Every possession in the last two minutes are timed out. I get that you have to regroup, but God.

Memphis!!! Now for Dallas to upset San Antonio Spurs.

I'd love to see a 5, 6, 7, and 8 seed face off each other in the West-Semis Round!

Absolutely love the grizzlies. They're my number 2 team behind the celtics. Man I miss TA ! He has played so well for them and that clutch pass to z bo! Ooh wee ! I'll be wearing my Vancouver grizzlies hat all week. The west playoffs this year is awesome ! The Portland/Houston series is going to be fantastic. The east is so subpar. No way Miami wins it again this year.

What a game. OKC were limited to 16 fast break points and they shot uncharacteristically poorly. This series will probably at least go to 6.

Perk.  Last guy you expect to get a game-tying or game-winning bucket.  Dunno why Scotty Brooks still puts him on the floor in late-game situations, but he came through big time there.
No timeouts and they had to get the rebound if the second free throw was missed.

Funny to see Doc and JO receive double technical fouls for arguing with each other.

No love lost?

Was watching the Clippers/Warriors game last night -- I didn't realize how many "former NBA starters of the mid 2000's" were sitting on their bench.

edit: Also, I don't think anyone can really compare TA and Avery after watching Allen this series.

At least a goldfish with a Lincoln Log on its back goin' across your floor to your sock drawer has a miraculous connotation to it.

They're still both very good defenders although Allen is better.

That atmosphere in Toronto...obviously they've never been in playoff games a lot.

Wait until they walk into Barclays Center...

But really pulling for the Raptors to win in 6 lol. If the Nets win, then NBA's got their perfect matchup between Brooklyn and Miami!
