San Antonio closes out Portland 114-95 in 5 games behind D’Aaron Fox’s 21 points and 9 assists.

The Spurs await the winner of Denver and Minnesota

Man I feel bad for Hawks fans. This is embarrassing. How do you come into an elimination game at home like this?

Good God the Knicks eliminate the Hawks 140-89.

A 51 point loss at home in an elimination game. Tragic

 

[Blazehausen]

Hawks had to lose, so the Braves can keep winning. Can't have to much good going on in Atlanta.

A soul for a soul like Thanos would say

A soul for a soul like Thanos would say

And I'm perfectly fine with the trade off

 

[Cwalker]

They didn’t win today though

 

[Barry Poppins]

It's a tight game thus far between MIN/DEN

 

[Blazehausen]

They didn’t win today though

Still ain't lose a series

I gotta give it to my Sixers down 3-1 forcing a Game 7 in Boston on Saturday. Most Teams would of quit down 3-1 but they played together and played two of their best Games as a Team. Tatum suffered a Calf Injury as well he should play I imagine but even if he's hindered a little bit that is great for the Sixers. All the pressure goes to the Celtics now in Game 7 and the Curse needs to end with these Sixers in Playoffs especially with the Celtics.

What a breakout game for Terrence Shannon Jr. Big shout out Jaden McDaniels talking his shit and backing it up all series long against Denver.

 

[Barry Poppins]

Those Timberwolves got that Dawg in them.

 

[Cwalker]

Gobert v Wemby gonna be a good matchup.

Gotta give the edge to Wemby

 

[Barry Poppins]

The series will really depend on if the Wolves are able to defend the other player in SA, and if Ant and Dosunmu can come back and be efficient on offense. Jaden heroics won't save them all the time, but God damn give us more TSJ minutes.

 

[Cwalker]

Jaden can defend either Castle or Harper but someone is gonna have to step up and stop the other.

Like you said the Wolves’ health plays a role but as of right now I got the Spurs in 6
