Are the Rockets gonna pull a Rockets here? Down to a 13 point game

Looks like they’re going to maintain enough composure to finish. Quite ugly finish against the Warriors third string. Curry and Butler have been on the bench since about the 3:00 mark of the third.

Good for the Rockets.
Hopefully the Lakers lose.

The radical and wonderful years of the late 1960s .... The Doors was part of that.

"Girl, we couldn't get much higher"

lead guitarist Robbie Krieger penned the lyrics that was a litte tooooo much for Ed Sullivan

Light My Fire: a counterculture beacon embraced by the mainstream

The song took on a life independent of The Doors, with covers by Stevie Wonder, Al Green, Will Young and many others

Draymond Green has been in the news plenty of times for being dirty, but who are the dirtiest players in NBA history?

This biased Warrior' baddest is


priceless

I will live if Rockets win, but they have to bring Lakers down, The Knect to the bench did it for this Warrior fan who almost pledged allegiance to those Elgin Baylor teams

Can’t call a foul on LeBron invoked… plus, a game seven would be nice…

It is so hard for me to watch NBA games without resorting to bitching about the officials. Regardless of who is playing. Lots of internal bias built up over the years.

I saw a graphic earlier tonight that said 13 playoff teams have come back from being down 3-1. Rockets in ‘95 and ‘15, GSW once… they didn’t mention the others.

If the T’Wolves end up choking this series away they will look back to the third quarter of this game as the turning point. They play even in that quarter and they are cruising to a double digit lead right now.

Dude is hilarious…

Can you name this MLB player?

I have 3 seasons of 40+ HR seasons.
I have a Gold Glove and Silver Slugger.
Only Aaron Judge has more HR than me since 2015.

 

[VolPack22]

Rudy Gobert has 27 points and 24 rebounds tonight. I didn’t like the Anthony Davis trade whenever it happened and it was for this reason. Zero big man presence for the playoffs. Lakers have a regular season roster, nothing built for a playoff run.

 

[VolPack22]

Congrats to Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves. Completely punked LeBron this series. I believe they said this was the first time the Lakers have lost a first round series being a 3 seed or better. Add that one to your legacy Faux GOAT.

 

[VolPack22]

Timberwolves vs Rockets/Warriors will be a great series. Thunder vs Nuggets would be a great one too if the Nuggets make it through.

 

[VolPack22]

Dang it’s been awhile since I’ve seen some of these names!
