Oh dear.

I didn't get to see any of the game. Saw the half time, 3 qtr and then full time score though. Embarrassing. I feel for Houston's fans.

Just sad for the playoffs that things can be so lopsided at this stage. Let's hope for an amazing Finals series between the Cavs and GS, I think it will be the highest rating Finals series of all time.

A Clippers match up would have been far more competitive. Houston really lucked their way this far.

Happened to have the ESPN radio on this morning heard interesting story - host said he had the sportsbook manager at the MGM Grande text him and say the Warriors Rockets game yesterday was the biggest win for the MGM for a non NBA game 7, EVER. That's huge. Said people thought it was like free money for the Rockets win and went nuts.

Lebron 0/10 through first quarter + 2mins but Cavs Hawks tied at 24 - Dellavedova with 2 3's already

Fascinating situation here with Horford being ejected flagrant 2

Horford had Dellavedova's arm still as Delly fell while tripping over Carroll who was on the ground. Delly fell on Horfords foot/ankle. Horford has it in mind that the last time this happened (to Korver who is out now) it caused an injury to his teammate.

Horford Decides to come down with the hammer elbow but misses, then falls on Dellys back/shoulder. This alone could have been bad, could have caused a shoulder separation injury easily.

Refs go back and look at it on replay - thinking back to the game 2 situation by now too - which, I don't think was malicious by Dellavedova either, he dove for the ball and Korvers leg was at an awkward angle there.

Flagrant 2 for Horford and tech for Delly - not sure what that was for as yet.


Anyone think either of Dellavedova's plays were intentional? Curious as to what other people think especially if you are a Horford/Hawks fan.

and Twitter has exploded


90% of people I follow tweeting how bad the call was - mostly ex players and current players. I'm pretty surprised.

Cavs look shaky going down the stretch. A lot of isolation plays where LeBron just has the ball throughout the possession and then drives and kick (for clanked shots).

Just ugly basketball being played by the Cavs. No movement, on or off the ball. They deserve to lose this game.

Hawks can't execute down the stretch missing 9 consecutive shots and the Cavs manage to eke out a victory..one more win to go!

Lebron dragged them across the line. Massive monster game.

Westbrook like numbers especially the shooting percentage.

From 0/10 to that line and a win. Impressive still. Looked absolutely gassed at the end there

I could have done without some of James' theatrics, if I'm to be honest. Teague steps in to make a steal, James fumbles the ball and ends up on the court then stays there for a good half possession complaining of the foul (I didn't see one). Fortunately, the Cavs manage to get a defensive stop playing 4 on 5. Then later in OT, gingerly limping around one second, calling to be subbed out, then waves off his own sub request a second later, then being able to run on defense and offense the rest of the game while intermittenly limping when he misses a shot. I dunno...a bit too much for me. I could give him the benefit of the doubt, but it was sooooo cheezy, I thought I was watching Shaq in Kazaam.

The above tech is such a joke.

Hell in the HOU game Dwight's own teammate ran in to his knee and damaged it.

things happen. Horford never got hurt, he was just being a b*tch.

Keep it up Delly.

Man, that is a rough fall, so incredible that he is still in the game. He was like a rag doll on that play. Hope he is okay for the rest of the playoffs.

Back to a 7 point game with 9 mins to go...wow...Rockets have responded well each time the Warriors have gone on a run thus far but back to back three pointers by Klay trimmed that lead in a hurry

And Rockets repond to the run with their own run and bumps the lead up back to 13 points
