NBA 2015-2016

Fkin hell Oladipo. I want to go to sleep but he nails it and forces 2nd overtime
 
Double overtime at Orlando, two buzzer beater 3's in a row, crazy.
 
KD didn't score in OT1, he'll probably do something in the second one.
 
If this goes to triple overtime KD and Russ might combine for 100.
 
KD and Russ combined for 91 points. Weren't they supposed to be LESS of a two-man team after Brooks left?
 
Lakers cant play defense for shit. . Terrible start to the season.
It's amazing how Scott still has a coaching job in the NBA.

On another note, what a terrible game Bulls@Pistons was. One of the worst I've seen in a while.
 
they haven't been playing defence for the last 3 seasons now. Shambles of a franchise right now.

Coincided with the son taking over from his father.
I said that last season and got hammered here.. This has to be the worst run franchise in the history of sports.

Yep. Rose was atrocious. Butler wasn't good either. They made Reggie Jackson look like a decent player.
 
The Cavs are winning the East aren't they.

Miami have a very good team now, but still lacking 3-point shooting. Still enjoyed the game against the Cavs, I'd say definite improvement over last season.

They should. Bulls are probably the only team who can challenge them and only if they stay healthy. Rose needs to pick up some kind of consistency for them, too.

I was skeptical about Miami before the season, but after the first two games, I'm more optimistic now. I think Miami can meet Cleveland in the ECF. I think they're better than Chicago right now.

Of course, the big IF here is injuries.

:rolleyes: Typical anti-Detroit bias.

Only being half serious, but Chicago were much better than Miami against Cleveland. Obviously Miami have a chance, but I think it's unlikely that they stay healthy and injuries will probably cost them more than Chicago, who are basically used to it.

:lol:

I'm actually impressed by the Pistons (in fact their revival started last season). But I don't know why, I just think they won't be able to sustain it. 1st round exit?

You're probably dead right here. I'm obviously biased.

However, I do expect Miami to improve if they stay healthy, as their core players start to develop some chemistry (Wade, Bosh, Dragic Whiteside and Deng haven't had the chance to play together). If they stay healthy Miami could become scary in the second half of the season. If only they could add a three point specialist...
 
The Rockets are destroying Miami right now, hope that means they are back to form, Thronton killing it!
 
And the game is tied now, what a comeback Heat were down 21 points.
 
Wow this is a brutal collapse from Houston. Harden hasn't scored a single 3-pointer in this match yet he keeps launching them.
 
With 3 of our bigs out there's no excuse for Miami, Harden is still out of rhythm too.
Yeah Whiteside was dominant, but everybody played well in the second half. Winslow's defence was great.

Great comeback win, even though Houston are struggling.

More of the second half and less of the first please...
 
Chuffed for Miami. Hopefully they kick on from here.

As for Houston... Couldn't happen to a better team. Bunch of overrated wankers. Got plaudits for winning the Southwest Division by 1 freaking game, and making it by a benchless Clippers team to the finals where they got blasted away by the Warriors. Led by James "flail to the foul line" Harden who chucks and disappears when the going gets tough. And somehow this season they are favored to win a championship.

I couldn't be happier.
 
Hopefully the Houston slump continues against OKC tomorrow.
