Game 2 Notes: Nothing Stunning At All

Game 1 – Missed Opportunities
Wow what a game, what a story.
First off, message sent. Everyone claiming the Warriors were clear favorites, ready to wipe the pathetic “leastern conference” champs out with ease, watched the Cavs handle the Warriors for most of the game. … Read the rest

Gotta Make It Happen
Nice knowing’ ya Hotlanta.
Remember, playoffs are a different ballgame. It took us a few years to learn that too. Regular season is actually pre-season in the NBA.
