Corey Brewer has already 14 points (including two 3-pointers) in 4th quarter and Josh Smith has 8 pts (including two 3-pointers) and Houston is making unlikely 4th quarter come back with Harden on the bench. Houston's mid season acquisitions are really earning their salary.

Crazy night. The Cavs win easily without Kyrie Irving and with a medicore LeBron James.
The Rockets come way back behind Brewer, Josh Smith and Jason Terry.

All 3 of those guys were picked up for essentially nothing... or very little. Every year, good teams get better when cast-offs from other teams become available.

But Houston hit the mother lode.

Yeah, we just had to move Corey again didn't we? Nice glue guy who once again we received zero value for. But he has short arms.

I shut this game off with 2 min to go in the 3rd thinking the series was over. I definitely missed out on a good game. Glad to see the Clippers blow it since I can't stand Chris Paul. As good as he is, man does flop and whine a lot!

Yep.

I would love to see Thibs coach the Cavs next year. That would make it fun at playoff time.

That team is so unlikeable. From Doc, Barnes, and Paul as you suggest - I just can't stand them. I'll be rooting hard for the Rockets in game 7.

He was not helping us land Payne. I am sure the Hawks wish they had Payne in the playoffs.

It's the first time i've really watched Griffin play In a couple years and WOW. He has gotten so much better in every way.

Yeah, I haven't watched a single game of that series. The whining and flopping is one reason I've never been a fan of Paul, LeBron, or Kobe. If you're a top player, just ball out, don't worry about the refs. Just by pure status alone you're going to receive 20x more foul calls than any other player. Basketball is getting ruined with the flopping and whining induced calls. I really hope Adam Silver implements something to curb it.
