Of freaking course. I pass up on the Clippers-Warriors game, and I miss the biggest comeback in postseason history.

The Warriors blow games at the absolute worst moments. For how insanely good they are, one false move and everything collapses on their end.

Speaking of, how are the Clippers still a team? Without Griffin, CP3, and DeAndre shouldn't they be bottom feeders even with Doc Rivers?

With OKC down 2-0 (which I expect will be 3-0 very soon) I have to put some thought into who I would like to win if not them. Frankly, anyone that's not GSW would be refreshing. I'm thinking maybe the Sixers.

This voice clip but coming from Kevin McHale
Imagine this. You take a Rockets squad with talented players and decent depth but no potential. You blow the team up and have it rebuilt and better in a single season. 2 years after that you have a lethal roster poised to take the title but you fall short because your opponent is the Warriors. Your star player (and other players) who went from talented 6th man with huge upside to Hall of Famer in only 2 seasons decides to bitch up a storm and get you fired.

Hence I want the Rockets to suffer for fucking over Kevin McHale.
