As a data person feel compelled to remind you that having a 1.8% chance of winning might make you feel like it is rigged and "impossible", but the fact is that it is an outcome that is perfectly valid. But this shit was 100% rigged. Fuck the NBA for rewarding this bullshit.

This is just not fair. The Basketball Gods have abandoned us.

Reinforcing this because it is turning out to be been one of the most significant statistical jumps for any skill this season. Aaron Gordon becoming a high-level finisher both at the rim and beyond the arc is saving the Nuggets' season. #NBA #MileHighPlayoffs

Steph is dealing with a Grade 1 strain. If he misses the average time lost, a return in Game 6 or Game 7 is plausible.

The physical conditioning and the will of Steph Curry were incredible tonight. Playing nearly every minute, in the 4th he still had the most energy of anyone else to not only drive the offense but sprint behind guys for steals and get loose balls. What a player.

Death, Taxes, Houston getting their collective heart ripped out by Stephen Curry.

Warriors, like on that Butler bucket, need to start geting into these screens higher up and earlier. Flow right into a second screen with Curry after that or push if you got the space. But it needs to be ealr, higher and faster.

The good news of this series is the Rockets now know for certain they can’t build around Green and Sengun. The bad news for Houston is every other team has TVs and sees the same thing.

Biggests shift in the 4th for the Warriors was the switch from Amen Thompson taking the ball up to Jalen Green. Amen is now back. Let's see how it goes.

Every young guard, please watch Stephen Curry extending that double team and keeping the dribble alive into a drive and finish. Best regards, random online bloke with good intentions.

I'm sure one more fadeaway near the baseline will turn that around...

Varejao-like decision.

I am so tired of watching Jonathan Kuminga mistakes and he's not even out there that much nowadays. That possession was painful and it's not a 3-point game. Why Kerr even subbed him in is beyond me...

Every single shot Steph Curry has made has been INSANE

Fred Van Vleet and especially Amen Thompson are doing more than enough to bring Houston back pretty much by themselves.

4 blocks in the first 4 posessions of the 2nd half, 2 for each side. I fucking love this game.

Draymond baited that Sengun pass and played it perfectly for the steal.

Thank you Pop ❤️ Iconic figures of the league's last 25 years. Beyond the players he helped guide, the incredible coaching lineage he generated, and all the winning - a ton of it, he was also an outspoken voice for justice and social empathy. Stay healthy. Get all the flowers.

This has to be the first time ever there is perfect alignment in the top 3 between me and the result. Really happy for Ty going from almost out of the league to top 3 in this award.

I'm not a religious person but I also think "I like to think of hell as being empty. I hope it is" is one of the most disruptive and transgressive statements any religious leader has said in my lifetime, and it came from a place of pure empathy.

Why are players disappearing from NBA play-type data on and off? What the hell has been going on? What am I missing? I feel like it's been happening since the turn of the year and a ton more since March began. Just me? Am I being dumb?
