Posted on June 7, 2018, by Travis Pulver For the Cleveland Cavaliers to win even a single game in the NBA Finals, they need a break to go their way.

Posted on June 4, 2018, by Travis Pulver No one expected the Cleveland Cavaliers to put up as good a fight as they did in Game One of the NBA Finals last week. They still lost, so it was only a moral victory. But it gave NBA fans a reason to hope that the series would […]
Posted on June 1, 2018, by Travis Pulver It wasn’t supposed to happen this way. The Cleveland Cavaliers were not supposed to have a chance in—you know – to win Game One of the NBA Finals. But the Golden State Warriors had a good but not great game. LeBron James was phenomenal. Kevin Love was able […]
Posted on May 31, 2018, by Travis Pulver For a time, it looked like we might get some new blood in the NBA Finals this year. The Cleveland Cavaliers were not exactly playing well. To be fair, LeBron James has been playing well; the rest of the team—not so much. The Boston Celtics had a shot, […]
Posted on May 29, 2018, by Travis Pulver The game plan for the Houston Rockets was pretty cut and dry this season. They were going to make it rain from behind the arc as much as possible.

Posted on May 26, 2018, by Travis Pulver The Houston Rockets took control of the Western Conference Finals in Game Five and put the Golden State Warriors in a position they are not accustomed to—on the brink of elimination.

Posted on May 25, 2018, by Travis Pulver For the Houston Rockets to beat the Golden State Warriors, it is considered a given that two things have to happen. James Harden needs to have a good night as does Chris Paul. They may be able to survive if one or the other has an off-night, but […]
Posted on May 23, 2018, by Travis Pulver The Houston Rockets put their fans through an emotional roller coaster Tuesday night during Game Four of the Western Conference Finals.

Posted on May 20, 2018, by Travis Pulver When you play the Golden State Warriors there is no room for error. You have to bring your ‘A’ game from beginning to end just to have a chance to win. There are no ‘slow starts’ or lapses of any kind—not if you want to win, that is. […]
Posted on May 17, 2018, by Travis Pulver Everyone loves the Golden State Warriors and it is not hard to see why. They haven’t just been the best in the business, these typically cruise through the competition. But if there is one thing that people like seeing more than a winner, it is seeing that winner […]
Posted on May 15, 2018, by Travis Pulver The Golden State Warriors have maintained an air of confidence leading into the Western Conference Finals against the Houston Rockets.

Posted on April 20, 2018, by Travis Pulver Thursday night’s NBA Playoff action had a lot to live up to after Wednesday’s action.
