Not really an exciting play-off 1st round tbh. Upsets seems highly unlikely, already 5 teams to 2nd round (2 sweeps and 3 with 4-1 results).
Could very well be 1 series that goes to game 6 (Denver vs SAS)
Hopefully 2nd round will be more exciting

Playoffs have been great so far, Lillard's game winner, Steph taking down the Rockets in the 4e quarter of game 6, Leonard's series clincher.

Almost 1 hour away from NBA Draft Lottery 2019.

I'm hoping Mavericks gets No.1 overall pick so they can draft Zion.

Blazers clearly dominated first half of game 3 but blew their whole lead with a horrible 3rd quarter. Great game by Green.

Blazers seem to have some kind of a mental roadblock against Warriors, a bit like Athletico does vs RM in the UCL.

Both Lillard and McCollum have never played well vs the warriors in the playoffs except for that one game last year where they combined for ~70 points.

You won't be able to beat the warriors if your star players are not up to par.

Blazers are basically poor man's version of "KD less GSW"
They will never stand a chance against them, Denver was a better match up but lack of experience cost them, but unless there is an injury of stupid trade they are biggest threat to GSW in the next couple of seasons

same thing happened in Game 2, Warriors are tough

Yea, their defense just goes up a notch whenever they need it. Should do everything to extend Green. Man talks a lot but brings the goods. He's had a superb game last night.

And Warriors sub players contribute well also. Maybe it's also the role of the manager.
