NBA Finals preview on Friday? Rockets at Toronto.

Scared to say anything.... too superstitious.

Who is going to be matched up against the lower seeded Spurs that might have Kahwi Leonard back in? That is going to be a tough draw assuming he comes back and looks as good as he has been.

Wouldn't the Spurs be smart to tank to get into the lottery? They're not that far ahead of the #9 spot in the Western Conference.

Alternatively, they are only out of the #3 seed by 1.5 games with 18 games to go. No way they tank if they get a modestly healthy Leonard back on the court before the playoffs.

I know Pop works wonders, but do they have enough weapons?
RE: Go Rockets - flash3200 - 03-08-2018 12:26 AM
I dunno...it definitely looks like the Rockets and Warriors are in a separate class. But adding a MVP capable player to a already decent playoff team has to close the gap substantially.

You mean like their Tim Duncan tank-a-thon?

Streak is over. Raptors win by 3 in Toronto. Had a chance to tie at the buzzer, but Harden misses a 32 ft shot.
Time to start a new winning steak.
