Just a calf niggle hopefully, plenty of time now to recover.

I can't even begin to explain how stupid it is that Portland get the #4 seed even though they only won 51 games because of winning the SouthWest division. What a joke.

Who actually cares about the divisions anymore, they should not have any impact on playoff seedings. Memphis and San Antonio are the 5th and 6th seeds despite 55 games each - 4 more than Portland.

The fact that the Clippers got the 3rd seed and are stuck with the Spurs in the first round is just ridoculous, given there's just one game between them in the win column. Portland should be the 6th seed and play LAC. Then have a 4/5 series between Memphis and San Antonio.

Playoff format needs to be changed - divisions are outdated. The best 16 teams, regardless of conference is the goal, but the NBA can start by just fixing this.

Let us all remember the last time Cleveland LeBron came up against Boston in the playoffs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P6v7kdt2Bxw
Look at him toss that filthy jersey away in disgust ;)

I love this situation.. Nothing to lose, everything to gain. Monday morning can't come quick enough 8)

The Truth has still got it, 20 points on 10 shots in the Wizards OT win.

PLAYOFF RONDO LIVES ON.

Dominating this 2nd quarter :o

Spurs clips matchup shouldn't be this early in the playoffs :( 2nd and 3rd best teams should meet round 1.

PS. Jayman you putting in work with the NBA analysis. Good stuff!

No joke! If Clipps play like they did today, this series could he over quickly. But can't see the Spurs shooting the ball like they did today.

And cheers man. That reminds me, gotta dish out some more awards! What else are uni holidays for :P
