According to the NBA's Last Two Minutes Report, the play at the end of Cavs-Pistons G5 regulation was a correct non-call. #dontshootthemessenger

Tonight could be LeBron's last as a Laker, but 3-0 deficit to OKC has killed demand.

Because of the Celtics' Game 7 loss, the Sultan of Stat doesn't have to sultan beyond the first round. Yet he's still a champion.

Celtics had 19 assists on 37 made field goals in Game 7. They scored two points in the final 3:49 after getting within a point (a meaningless Pritchard layup with 10 seconds left). On their own floor, they trailed by as many as 18 and led by 1.
The playoffs are a different game.

Said all year when asked about Celtics: They've proven they're regular-season good. Question is whether they'll be playoff good when opponent can truly lock in & prepare for them. Still can be, but have to play harder on defense and stay the passing/cutting course on offense.

Celtics trail Philly, 88-75, after 3.

Celtics 7 for 23 on 3-pointers 2:21 into the second half. Taking that many isn't necessarily problematic, BUT it's also true that most of the best treys come after paint touches. In other words, cutting and ball movement.

A minute into the second quarter the Celtics have used 10 players. ... And none of them is named Nikola Vucevic.

So you're saying the Sixers won't be prepared for it...
